Ice/Fire Guide?

Posted

I have read The Ultimate Ice Blast Guide by Xanatos and its a good guide but it was written in ancient times....and im sure things have changed somewhat since then....mainly the slotting since ED came out and 6 slotting damage or end mod etc......is no longer prudent. I have an Ice/Fire blaster which i very much enjoy playing but im sure im not getting everything out of him i can. He is not a blapper and flight is his preferred mode of travel.

Does anyone (including Xanatos) have a current guide for Ice/Fire i could take a look at?

Wanted to thank you for posting this, as I'm in pretty much the same boat with Dodger here. Having a completley unlooked for riot with my Ice/Fire, but am also sure I'm not getting all I can out of him. Also a flier. Anyone else have any valid build ideas?


Stand UP.

I also have an ice/fire blaster. I've got the power selection listed below. The slotting might not be entirely correct since I can't remember it from scratch, but it shouldn't be that much different.
