Ice/Ice critique
Also, I'd like to add that his Incarnate Slot is setup for damage. I have not taken this into account with the rest of his slotting yet.
OK, I understand that a large percentage of my Incarnate slot is affected by ED. If I'm slotted for damage in my Islot, then I can remove a damage enhancement from my powers with little to no loss of damage....right?
What about Set bonuses? If I have +90% Accuracy due to set bonuses, is that on top of ED caps or are Set bonuses not affected?
anyone?

The "Examples" section toward the beginning should clarify how ED effects the Alpha Slot abilities in relation to other powers.
@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.
OK, been playing Bitterfreeze for 5 or 6 years now. Have gone through many builds and want a critique of the current one. This is a "cheap" build and is only temporary (aren't they all?). I have a few purples that I'm waiting to slot. I also have a few more Devastations that will help boost the damage up to +25%.
Anyway, I will post the "expensive" build later. Here is where he stands currently.
