To be honest, most of the stuff used in such a build hasn't changed much : CI, Sirocco's Dervish and Impervium Armor ( used for +endurance and +rec, not the psi protection) are what I put in back then. I focused more on ranged and aoe defenses ( with Thunderstrikes in ranged APP powers) because -def came from bullets often.
The 2 lotgs, 2 -kb IOs, the steadfast unique and the 3 heal uniques have gone up in price. One piece of IA doubled in price from 20 to 40 mil buy it NAO price. You're looking at 500-700 million for the expensive bits but the other IOs are about the same as they always where.
The largest expense is in only 9 of the IOs, most of which doubled or tripled in price compared to issue 9 times.
I am an ebil markeeter and will steal your moneiz ...correction stole your moneiz. I support keeping the poor down because it is impossible to make moneiz in this game.
OK, when Issue 9 came out some level 50 firetanks spent an incalculable amount of inf to get their dream build RIGHT NAO. It was, like, 300 million inf. Maybe 350 million counting the Draconic Wings.
What would today's cost for that same build be?
* No purples
* No PVP IO's
* No Blessing of the Zephyrs
* No Eradication, Obliteration, Accurate Healing, Taunt, Knockback... I'm missing a few sets.
It would definitely have the three Heal uniques in Health, and it would probably have Impervium Armor and a lot of Crushing Impacts. (Psi resist! Oooh!)
Nobody had figured out perma-Hasten or defense-capped builds yet, and typed defense was a pathetic fallacy (and the "typed -> 1/2 positional" wasn't in place.) So Kin Combat, Aegis and Thunderstrike for three were a lot less interesting.
I'm too lazy to do the work... anyone interested?
