FF/Ice - Do I have brain freeze?
No, people are just not making guides as MUCH anymore, and when they do, they are making guides for ONE set rather than a specific pairing. Also, Ice is a "newish" blast set for Defenders. Add those together would explain why there's no FF/Ice guide, or an FF/Archery Guide, or an FF/Dark guide, etc. etc.
Take a look at the FF guide in my signature for FF, and as far as Ice goes? Blast stuff till it's dead. 'nuff said.
Problem with Forcefield is that people see it as a primarily team playing toon... but its one of the easiest toons to get to the Defense Soft cap through IO's and become very very survivable, Mine could tank if it had taunt
Consciousness: that annoying time between naps.
Sure, but that doesn't stop you from doing crap damage compared to every other AT.

Thanks for the advice and positive reinforcement. I will definitely take a look at that FF guide since that's the set I'm having the most difficulty with deciding what to take.

I also forgot to mention that with the Real Numbers being in the game now, there's even LESS need for guides. Only guides like mine, which are more wordy/strategy and less numbers, are generally worth anything anymore.
I have come up with a concept that I am very fond of, and I have decided that out of all the heroic ATs and powerset combinations, the one that best fits this concept is a Force Field/Ice Blast defender. However, there are no guides for this combo, so I have to wonder -am I crazy for wanting to play this?
I know that as a FF/ defender, I will mostly be relegated to teams, but that's OK (although the fact that I am creating the toon on a lower population server may support the dementia theory), but if FF/Ice defenders have some inherent flaw that makes them harder or less desirable to play, or play with, could someone let me know what that flaw is, and the best way around it?
Thanks!
