I'm a returning player and in the process of trying to find updated AT guides. Problem is the ones that are compiled are really old and are not updated. I'm looking for guides that are from I19 if thats even possible.

I've been to Paragonwiki and the Titan network with no such luck there either. Those are old and outdated as well.

If someone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

The guides are mostly still good. Stay away from anything marked "Issue 2," but anything after Issue 6 (Enhancement Diversification) should be fine.

The only thing you're missing is use of IO set bonuses, which are so complicated you should post specific questions anyway. A general guide couldn't cover all the possibilities or trade-offs.

If you head on down to the AT related forum of the powerset that you have the question on/about, chances are you'll find out anything you need to know if you ask there.

As a general rule most guides newer than issue 9 are still applicable. Several sets got a significant buff in issue 13, since then the only really major change that comes to mind is the inherent fitness with issue 19 and it didn't change powers, it just opened up more room in your build.

As an example my Invuln soft cap guide dates from issue 13 but everything in it still applies today; you just have room for 3 more powers nowadays. My first 20 levels Invuln guide on the other hand did change dramatically so I've updated it with the issue 19 changes.
