I like color changing stuff so far. I know Scirocco Red now has powers that look a lot more like a sandstorm than a snowstorm. :>
This is a good thing!

I went sandstormy with my AR/Cold, but couldn't find a good way to make the /cold shields less gaudy. Eventually I settled with making them grayish and explaining them away as salt crystals, but it still doesn't fit in well conceptually with a desert theme.
As far as what I've been doing, most of it involves frantically trying to build a good AE farm mission. So far, no such luck. Went on a halfhearted ITF with some folks last night, and joined up with the local /Earth ST, but other than that I haven't been able to get a group since the nerf. Ended up spending many hours with LFT turned on tweaking my base design.
Hopefully things will turn around over the weekend and I'll either have a farm going in Cap or blunder my way into groups doing interesting stuff.
Spikes instead of bananas for spines!
Heroes : Angrem (50 Stone tank), Exo Inferis (50 Fire blaster), Exo Proteus (50 ill/emp), IceVengance (50 cold defender)
Villains : AtomBomb (50 Rad/Kin corruptor), Aleks (50 SS/Inv brute), StoneLethal (50 EM/Stone brute), Davroz (50 Bots/Dark mastermind)
I'd recommend playing the market to get piles and piles of inf. Takes about 15 minutes everytime you log in and there's absolutely no farming involved.
Bananas instead of spikes! What? My character is named 'Banana Flambe'. I made him based around the banana spikes.
ATs to 50 - TA/A Def, Nrg/Nrg Blaster, EM/EA Brute, WS,ELM/ELA Stalker

I was excited to see i16 finally drop. And I still am happy, but there are a few comments/questions I'd like to throw out there.
If people aren't in ICON redo-ing there power colors then where are they? I've been trying to team in everyone of the more popular city areas and I'm having a hard time getting a squad together. This may be due to the fact that people can no solo big mobs by themselves. Massive farming if you have the right builds ya know. So uh....should I be more Taskforce/strike force driven?
Maybe it's going to take some time to set in with me, but the color change thing seems to be a little ridiculous at the moment. I mean, crazy color schemes out there. It almost seems like a Lucky Charms or Trix commercial on Crystal Meth or something. HAHA. Yes, I changed my toons power colors as well. Just seems weird when you have a mish and the colors are all mashed up together. But at least I can now tell which toon is doing what for the most part.
Now the the AE farming has died, what would you guys recommend a person do to get his funding up for them tasty IO set bonuses? The basics of course are buy low, sell high, and be patient of course. Has there been any new revelations to a legit and not so fad-ish INF build up?
Is the state of the consignment stores supposed to change now that i16 is here? Is it one of those things that is supposed to take time to be more affordable these days due to the fact that AE farming is dead and ppl don't feel like doing those AE mishes anymore for the massive INF or AE tickets? I'm not complaining, I'm just trying to get a clearer picture of what I should expect if anything.
Do you think that the new powersets might be some of the cause of there being a lack of higher level teams? Ya know, people doing new elec and rad builds and all that yummy stuff.
What are you new comments on i16? I do have faith that this issue will probably be on of the best issues to every drop.
