A question about Alpha slot and recharge

I've tried to figure this out since yesterday, but now I have to ask.

I have done the mission to open the alpha slot for my main, a fire/kin troller.

Now I want to slot the best recharge thing possible in the Alpha slot.

Which Task Forces do I need to complete in order to do that? Or am I getting random drops at the end of TFs so I don't know how many?

for the basic Recharge one you need the one that comes off of the ITF, (ancient Nictus Fragment) one from STF/LRSF (Essence of the Incarnate) and the one you can get with 150 Vanguard Merits (Gr'ai Matter)
so. if you have 150 Vanguard Merits you should be fine with just doing 1 ITF since shards (which you need 4 of to create any of the components) drop randomly (somewhere between Uncommon and rare Salvage) from L50 Mobs

I got the Recharge/Heal boost, here's what I did:

Here's what I did yesterday:

1. Ramiel's arc. Got 1 Shard.

2. Bought G'rai Matter with Vanguard Merits. That's 1 Component.

3. Ran ITF. Got Ancient Nictus Component (2nd Component) and 6 Shards.

4. Crafted third Component from 4 Shards. (2 Shards left over)

5. From the 3 Components, I crafted and slotted my Common Alpha Boost.

6. Did a LGTF. Got a component and 5 Shards. (Now up to 7 Shards)

7. Did a Dr. Kahn TF. Got a component and 6 Shards. (Now up to 13 Shards)

8. Spent a Component and 8 Shards for an Uncommon Component. (5 Shards left)

9. Spent 4 Shards to create a Component. (1 Shard left)

10. Spent my Common Boost, 2 Common Components, and the one Uncommon Component for the Uncommon Boost and slotted it.


Now, once you slot your first tier boost, you can do the new Incarnate TFs. Each give 2 guaranteed Shards at the end, plus whatever drops during.

Thanks. Where can I see a list of what ingredients are needed for which enhancement?

.

BTW, is there an alternative to doing Dr. Kahn? It was the most boring and long TF I have ever seen

should be able to collect shards and convert them into components

Snip - I was wondering, does the Heal only affect heal effects (like the set bonuses), or does it also affect +HP and Regen powers?

They can be viewed in the Incarnate Interface...the second tab I think. Hold the mouse cursor over each Alpha slot enhancement and it will tell you which components are required to craft it.

To see what Components you need open up the create window in the Incarnate window. Click on the type of boost to bring up a tree of that boost. Click on the first or whatever boost you are interested in and the component list will appear.


Protector Server
Woeful Knight (BS/Regen/Body Scrapper)
Kevin Christian (MC/FF/Primal Controller)
SilverCybernaut (Eng/Dev/Munitions Blaster)
Apixie OhNo (Fire/Fire/Pyre Tanker)
Y'ru Glowen (Rad/Rad/Psy Defender)

It's supposed to affect anything that would be boosted by a Healing SO - Healing, +HP, and +Regen.

It does not affect IO Set bonuses AT ALL. It acts as extra enhancement to POWERS. It will help powers such as Dull Pain, Siphon Life, Health, Regen powers, etc.
