i usually did fine skipping the tier 2 attack, the tier 1 attack is fast charging and does -regen on disintegrated targets
the other power i could get away with underslotting would be lancer shot (the stun), i would mostly use that since it has a 100% chance of spreading disintegration but its fairly low dmg and very short range would not be something i would use often

Lancer Shot is easily Beam's best attack. It's Blaze with a stun.

I think this is going to be a problem with most Time builds. I've been roughing up a Time/Elec/Elec Defender and am finding a lot of issues trying to get enough slots for everything.|

Part of the problem is that Time is a set where you really want all 9 powers if possible which means fewer places to take the "one-slot wonder" powers (such as Leadership, Recall Friend etc.) which a lot of builds use to save slots.
Anyone had any experience with Beam/Time now and any further insight? Time seems to need every power. I can't see skipping any. Beam perhaps, though has some skips.
I can see the tier 2 beam being skippable since it's damage per animation time is worse than Tier 1 and with all of Time's recharge you are going to be waiting on animation mostly. Plus if you are buffing or doing anything else you need to get that shot in ASAP before you lose your disintegrate.
Is Aim skippable for this combo? I know a number of Corr builds skip Aim but I am not sure entirely what a build needs to qualify for skipping it.
Looking at the Damage per Activation and Damage per Cycle in the power select screen it seems like the snipe attack Penetrating Ray is skippable. You disintegrate then stand around for 4.4 seconds shooting the snipe. It seems you can do just as much or better with multiple tier 1 attacks and your cones in that time. Leading with the snipe seems odd since you want to snipe disintegrated targets to get the real damage...
Perhaps even Lancer Shot is skippable if you don't feel you need the stun with Time's control. It seems you could easily, with all the recharge, get into a cycle disintegrating and single shotting while throwing in cone attacks when the situation is favorable.
I'm pretty much a novice at char optimization in this game however so...please feel free to tell me how wrong I am 
.
Lancer shot is sadly not at all comparable to blaze. It is directly comparable to cosmic burst, and is nearly identical apart from its lack of defense debuff in exchange for bonus damage on a disintegrating target. The thing is, if you want to take advantage of the stun you probably want to open with it on a sapper or something and in that case it is a lot less likely he'll already be disintegrating. In my opinion, disintegrate itself neatly fills the position of beam's tier 3 attack; an additional attack with comparable dpa, shorter range, and a much less valuable position in your chain seems unnecessary.
Zen, unless you care about pulling things from far away you are very correct to skip the snipe. That's true for any blast set, but beam rifle even more so due to the sheer number of other good attacks it gets. Piercing beam does not have the long range but if you hit two targets it does way more damage than the snipe and if you hit three it's twice as much.

Yeah I do want the cones. I'm looking at taking Tier 1, disintegrate, both cones, and Tier 9. Skipping Tier 2, lancer, and snipe. With Tier 1 and Tier 9 and lots of recharge maybe I only need 1 cone? Seems rather vanilla but Tier 1 has the best damage single target and with two AE moves I may have enough buttons to press...|

Piercing beam is also only 5 degree cone...hrm...
I still don't know about Aim. I see builds with it and I see those without it. I don't understand why one or the other is chosen, really.
Actually I think the average damage calcs for Beam are messed up. See:
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...=1#post3877781
Yeah, I want to know too.
What I do like is the tier 2 and 1 and attacking in that order. The tier 1 fires immediately after the first attack and gives the impression of a quick one two. Similar to psi blast.
I don't like disintegrate, animation too long. Is that skip-able?

Yeah the in-game real numbers include disintegration spreads in the damage values of the single target attacks. This is very optimistic on its part. To get the real value, only pay attention to the non-DoT chunk as well as the "only applies to a disintegrating target" piece for the conditional bonus damage.
Piercing shot isn't exactly a cone in the same way ... the actual cone, whatever it's name is, is. I like to think of it more like a tier 3 blast that happens to be able to catch additional targets. It becomes a sort of mini-game, spotting places where you can hit three targets with it and firing it before you miss the window. Some people probably won't find that as amusing as I do. If it doesn't sound fun to you that power is very skippable.
Aim? Meh. Depends on your secondary. If you don't have any other way of reducing defense or increasing your own tohit, aim can be useful. Even for a blaster it's an awfully meager damage buff so I wouldn't worry too much about that side of it, more of a bonus really.
Necro, if you're going to skip anything in BR, disintegrate is probably the last thing you should choose. It's a high damage attack and it enables you to use the set's main gimmick. If you skip it you can't apply any of the bonus effects your attacks are capable of, nor will your single target damage be nearly as good as with disintegrate. It also contributes some aoe. If you're torn between lancer shot and disintegrate, know that disintegrate is vastly superior. If you're just searching for attacks to drop, definitely drop lancer, piercing, the snipe or aim before you drop disintegrate.
Coolio. Thanks for the info.

I am wondering if this build really has legs?
I have a bane spider and a fort, and both their builds are amazing. But my question is, does this build have survivability? I know it's mainly dmg and support, I just don't see where this build fit's in an incarnate trial. Mine is currently 35, I invested all my xp boosters into it except 1..like an idiot lol..
And I don't know how well this build actually preforms.
For a 'rupter?
Easily the Snipe is easily the most skipable
I like Aim, but I can see living w/o it
Distrinigrate is must to take, but you can live with it being 4 slotted with 3 recharge and 1 accuracy
On times side, the ST buff is easily the most skippable
I would skip the snipe and Time's hold, to be honest. Aim could be skippable perhaps too, although that's nice to have. I know the hold can hit mag 4 but still...
...on my beam/poison, I respecced out of cutting beam actually.
My new Youtube Channel with CoH info
You might know me as FlintEastwood now on Freedom
I intend to skip aim, the snipe, the t1 blast and possibly Piercing Ray from Beam. From Time I'll be skipping the ST hold, and depending on how high I can get my defense I may drop Time's Juncture.
I just hit 26 on my beam/time corr and made some preliminary adjustments.
Firstly, I took out the sniper attack. It was great for a long range pull, but not necessary in the attack chain. Beam is dependent on hitting 1-2 critters with fast attacks before applying your AOEs to disintegrating targets - and the sniper attack just doesn't help as much.
Also, although I still have time crawl and temporal selection, I'm keeping them with their original single slot. This is working for me so far, but I'm unsure what the future holds for me with these two powers. I might start a separate thread on this very subject.
These actions alone should free up some slots!

-Playing since COH beta and still love the game!
You can skip the hold. I was able to make a build for possibly the most slot hungry combo: ice/time (from ice you'll want the tier 1 and 2, and slot all the attacks properly) - I also took the two holds because Freeze Ray can stack with Time Stop.
The build doesn't have capped defs but... it looks good for a first attempt imo. And Temporal Selection's slots can be used elsewhere, I put a DW set for the recharge mostly but I went overboard, Chrono Shift is perma before Hasten on this one.

The new Mids is up. Was trying to put a build together, but I usually play scrappers and blasters. It is not clear to me what or how to slot the time powers, so was hoping someone would start adding some beam / time builds to this thread.
@ThrillKiller
Gah! I can't choose! I want to drop either Piercing Beam or Lancer Shot on my Beam Rifle/Traps Corr in favor of the fighting pool and Vengance but it seems...I'm having a hard time here....What do you guys think about skipping Aim in this set?
Wait a minute! I normally Solo and I'm making a Traps toon! I can just skip vengeance! Yay!
This is a very raw build I made, I'd like to know what you think of it.

I'm thinking about respeccing out of the t2 (maybe t1) once I have an IO build. I'm skipping Aim but I'm getting Tactics. That's what I'm thinking about doing with my BR/Traps (but not sure which blast I'll skip, it will be the t1 or t2 - if I hunt big game I might keep the t1 since it does -regen although Poison Trap does enough -regen for anything I guess)

Fight my brute
This isn't really a proper build thread yet, as I'm still trying to thrash out just the numbers of slots per power and such, but so far, some issues are emerging, and I'm wondering how we can work around them.
I suppose the questions are:
1) Which beam and time powers are skippable, as opposed to must-have? (and what one-three slot powers do we replace them with?)
2) In terms of slotting in general, if you take all the attacks at five-slot, you barely have enough slots left to slot time out properly. Same if you put a decent amount of slots into time. Where's the give in these builds?
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
