Energy/Energy Lvl39: My first CoH character and the only Blaster I've ever made. I gave up on him for a long while, but am now pushing him to Lvl50 as I think I owe him that much lol.

Hmm, felt quite sure I'd replied to this but it would appear not.

Powertrix, lvl 50 Nrg/Dev/Force (but no Force of nature!)
First blaster I played that could actually help the team without taking aggro from them and I just LOVES energy Torrent! Gun Drone helpsloads as well and ghave me an excuse to pick it when i didn't even consider it previously.

Darkest Knight, lvl 38Fire/Fire. My very very first toon, 3 days after launch and one which I find so frustrating to play. He can be absolutely brilliant one mission then spends the next mission more dead than alive. He manages to pull aggro from other blasters and has even managed it from a few tanks in his time. Spends more time face down than standing up and thus almost on permanent retirement but I just can't quite bring myself to delete him, being my first toon. I seriously doubt he'll ever get to 50 and if he did the game would end and no one could play anymore as the Universe would implode with the unlikeyhood of him ever getting to 50.

Isn't Electric Primary the weakest of all the Blaster sets?

[/ QUOTE ]For ST, but it's the second best for AoE (and thus the second best set to pair with /mind).

Also great for survivability if paired with /elec or /NRG.

Besides a few that got deleted in their teens, my only blaster so far is Patrick Bodmin, a bitter, middle-aged catboy (well, cat-man technically) of an AR/Fire blaster -- which seems to be one of the more unusual combinations. He's currently at level 41, busying himself in the Rikti War Zone by single-handedly hunting down and neutralising Rikti cells.

He's fun; not the highest damage output perhaps, but lots of AR cones for distance and fire for melee. Slow and steady, no endurance problems even without stamina, lots of skills from the power pools. Soloing missions on Unyielding I average about 1 to 2 faceplants per mission, and there's little in the way of real downtime.

Update:
Hmmm,
Ice/Fire, first 50
Fire/Fire, about 37
Ice/Energy, 8ish
Fire/Energy, Defiant 25ish
Psi/Men, 14
Archery/Ice, Storm team, 38
AR/Dev, 10

All fun, in their own ways...

cant remember the nick of my ice/device. I hate playing him, compared to the other blasters. Might do better against bosses, but the low damage output against anything else is annoying.

Anyone any experience of Elec/Mental and if so, is it a good combo?

Mines 44 at the moment and I love it. Its not the AoE king that a /Fire would be but its about second best I'd say. I've just gone mostly with AoE and avoided the ST holds I could have taken though, but I do find it fun. I especially like it when I have 90+ HP/Sec regen, thats the highlight. I guess any /Mental will have that though.

I find groups have no end pretty fast too, cause Drain Psyche stops their recovery and Short Cicuit drains them fast. When adding on all the other elec drains you soon wear them down.

Big plus side is that while I dont have much ST damage I do have -regen. So I can help out vs AVs in that way.

I'm finding it fun, probably not as efficient as my Ice/Fire blaster, but good in different ways. Makes you think sideways

My level 50 blaster. Its my avatar and first max level character. I really like the ice rifle, LRM-missile and elec powers.

Level 50 Archery/Elec Blaster. Got over 2000 hours on him and I love him to bits. Archery is seriously under-estimated IMO. High lethal damage combined with low recharge times - Whats not to like? :P


 

Posted

Elec/elec/elec is fun! Now they added Surge of Power it's much easier to blap, which is what elec/elec is great at anyway. It all complements each other nicely, and covers its own weaknesses better than say, elec/devices or whatever.

Lady Arete: Fire/Fire/Fire and my main (lvl 50). Its fun, do lots of damage and.. its playstyle is *spotting a big crowd of villains* "Ooo must... nuke"
This sometimes happens when I do NOT play my blaster and I got to remind myself... Not on my blaster now!

My other blaster is a "spoof" char of my Defender:
Gun Cyrene: AR/Mental. She is still in her twentieths++ so still powers that lack.

I have Elemental Onslaught at 24 now. You really need a team to have fun blasting, but I usually find Nega Pink and Nega Snoox online so I harass them for use as meatsh-....loyal companions.

My main and first lvl50 is Fire/Ice/Fire blaster. Love the nukes, love the Fireball/Firebreath combo that'll floor a group and don't care about debt or death as he has a self res for more damage.

My AR/Dev blaster was my first 50, still play it sometimes but after ED it was nerfed to hell and back. Trying to get it back up to scratch with IO sets but it'll probably never be as impressive as it was.

Have an archery/fire blaster, also at 50. Great little damage dealer solo. Not so great in teams. Her most powerful attack is almost useless in teams, the animation time for rain of arrows is so long that the controllers/scrappers have finished off most groups of mobs before the arrows actually cause any damage.

Tried an elec primary blaster and had a brief foray into fire, just couldn't get on with them. Not tried any other primaries. To be honest I've grown a little jaded with blasters and I've moved onto melee - mainly scrappers.

I've started a new AR/Dev in anticipation of the new buffs in the latest patch. Although, I try to get an AR/Dev toon going periodically every month and it never takes....

Still, might work this time! The sheer pain of levelling a newborn Kheldian makes a Blaster look luxuriously easy! Look at all that lovely damage! Look at it!
