Ok, I have a level 48 faery brute with Super-Strengh/Willpower. She's good and all, but not good for bigger groups like coalitions, TFs, ect. How can I make her, Shikratia, better? BTW, how do I change my forum name, I accidently misspelled her name. LOL!

IO IO IO thats really all to say if you have mids make a build from there, im to lazy right now to get link to mids. Also i think you have to email them to change it, best to ask weslty, aka pk.

I know IO, but what kind really. There are so many different types and I don't want to waste my hard earned infamy on something that isn't for me. BTW, my origin is magic, I definitly should have said that in the beginning!

Nah, Origin doesn't matter.

There should be some guides around the place for Super Strength and Willpower. That's a very popular and deadly combo so it shouldn't be hard to optimise, even before you start slotting IOs.

Know any good websites or should I just take a gander myself on the web?

Check the Player Guides section in these very forums. There should be at least a couple up to date guides for SS/WP.

As far as IOing goes, that's a difficult (nearly impossible) question to answer unless you can give us an idea of what you are looking for out of the character.

"I want it to be better" doesn't really help us that much, since we don't know what you already have.

Download Mid's Hero and Villain Designer and put your current build together in it and post it so we can give advice. You can find it here: http://www.cohtitan.com/, it's right on the first page. You need to use the Zetaboards setting when you export to get it to work.

I'm not trying to be mean, just saying that we need a little more information before we can be of any real help.

Also, Backfire is right, your origin doesn't matter in the slightest. It only affects what normal enhancements you use and which low level power you start with. Certain vet powers get bonus damage based on origin. It has no other effect at all.

A Tech brute and a Magic brute with the same build are identical in every way as far as game functionality is concerned.

Getting your Accolades is definitely a good start, especially Born in Battle (+hp/+end), High Pain Threshold (+hp), Invader (+hp) and Marshal (+end). Demonic is also very useful and easy to get

I am downloading the build planner, and I am thankful I have found it. On WOW, they have one and was wondering if CoH had one too. Now I know and I thank you all for the advise. Further advise is appreciated and welcomed.

This is close to my build but not exactly right (my defence numbers are a little higher than this, but I can't see what's wrong and the game is down). There are several ways to build a SS/WP and this is only one, but I went to cap F/C/E/N defences and up S/L. I also didn't want to spend an absolute fortune, so only used one of the def/end and def/end/rech which are the expensive parts of the kinetic combat set and slotted the KD proc for added mitigation.

The force feedback procs go off often enough for perma rage, despite the gaussian's set not being close to soft capped for recharge. (Note mids can't handle this proc so the recharge times are inaccurate).

Email Avatea if you haven't emailed anyone already.


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
