Electric melee for heroes?

Unless im missing something where is electric melee for scrappers/tanks!

Its my favourite set on all of coh, (especially lightning rod, whoever came up wth that better have got a promotion ) And its disappointing to see it not available unless your evil! am i alone in this request? or have i missed its place in the hero world.

id like to see fire aura for stalkers too

I'd love to make a Elec melee / Shield scrapper
So much fun as a brute, add in the higher base dmg on scrapper and the crit... oh my.

---

there's still lots of porting to do

"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"

iirc Castle doesnt really wanna port this amazing set, don't know a link, but im sure hes gone on to say that hed like some sets to remain on specific faction.

saying that, its my favourite melee set, but I cba to solo a brute like i did my stalker, so Id love to make an Elec/Shield scrapper or elec/stone tank.

i really hope i15 brings this, kind of annoyed actually theres no proliferation i14 for those of us not going all weak-kneed over the MA

I believe your thinking of when Castle said that they had original wanted to keep certain sets specific to there AT so ice for tanks, elec for brutes, plant for dominators but at some point they abandoned that idea and are instead porting everything starting with the easiest sets to port and working towards those that will need a lot of revamping.

---

Yeah, he wanted to have a sig power for each AT:

Ice for tanks, because it has the best aggro managment

Ninjitsu for stalkers, because ninjas flip out and kill poeple

Electric for brutes, because Electric Armour is teh suxor on any AT other than brute (cf stalker)


But he got overruled, so none of this counts for anything.

I really should do something about this signature.

Which means eventually one day brutes will once again have Ice what it'll work like tho is any one's guess tho expect a significant drop in the slow that the melee attacks do.

When brutes get Ice, we'll also get a ton of moaning why ice sucks so much for brutes

Sucks? SUCKS? if they think that there clearly mentally deficient ice rocked during beta, Ice armour was kick [censored] defence comparable to energy aura, a self heal/max HP power, and a +endurance/defence power oh and 2 taunt auras.

Admittidly ice melee wasn't quite as good but it wasn't terrible and with some modification could be turned into a excellent brute set

---

Powers go together though. Ice armour is ok (sans CE, which is a set defining power), but ice melee would have to have the -recharge removed, which is the defining characterstic of a cold set. Not to mention Ice Patch and the sleep.

Same with electic. Electric Melee is fine on any melee AT, but Electric Armor sucks.

Ice and Fire stalkers plox

---

well that sucks but maybe we will considering plants entrance into coh but i just love the idea of elec/shield

---

i've started a new thread for descusion of ice in a attempt not to take this thread of topic.

It can be found here

Yeah cause we'll all start seeing:
"whaaa i can't get any fury on my ice brute".
Which is why it was scrapped in beta in the first place

---

if they cant generate fury they dont deserve to be a brute inthe first place the sgould go play a scrapper or a tanker

---

It's not like Ice Melee looks very good for generating Fury through attacks, either.
