Can This Solo AVs?

That build will yield a total DPS of 122.2 and an attack chain of "RoF -> Char -> Fire Blast". With -30% res from sleet, and with another -30 from heat loss it'll bring you to an average dps of 169, but most likely it'll be stacked sleet as well and end up at around 200dps, and that will be enough to take down the Chronos titan with 73k HP with ease. This of course assuming that the AV has 0 resistance to fire.

During your Benumb DT of 6.5 seconds, he will regenerate 1977hp, as opposed to the 106hp regen during being debuffed by heat loss. If one application of benumb misses, he will regen 1.9k hitpoints, and assuming you never miss it'll take 14 minutes to down him. Of course, the Heat Loss miss will lead to more resists, so it'll take abit longer.

edit: I need to start sleeping. I had the powers completely mixed up and missed a key feature of heat loss.

Like I said before, the buff (+end, +recovery) portion of Heat Loss is autohit and lasts 90 seconds. The debuff portion (-res, -end, slow) does have a to-hit check and lasts for 30 seconds

Also the key power here isn't Heat Loss, it's Benumb (which will have a 6 second downtime)

Sorry about that, thanks for pointing it out. Updated earlier post.

Oh, and it's starting to look like a real potent AV-hunter.

what about a rad/cold defender instead? would that do better than a troller?

basically, if you see a miki on Triumph, it's probably cute and it's probably me.

Huge thanks to cuppamanga and all the folks in the mac help forum for prolonging my borrowed time on this game.

I agree 100% here too, no reason it shouldnt grant both positional and typed defense. Thinking its more of a bug, either way I say we all petition it.

Looks like you did the exact opposite
Hmm? That's exactly how I went about building it, and I only have one PvP IO (The same one in your build)...

Perhaps that is because I built it for both Teaming, and AV Soloing. While Flashfire and Fire Cages (Slotted with purples) are quite useless for AV soloing, they are extremely useful for Teaming.

And for the record, NoPhase lasts 90 seconds.
