I still think it would be good to at least outline a breakdown for the forms and something really rough for human. Simply note that what you take will have a massive shift in things.

This is also somewhat of a weakness, as your current powers aren't always what's best for your survival. It takes practice, but you'll figure it out. Warshade Breakdown Again, Warshades vary too much to be quantified. What you can do is dependent on your form, team, and how many targets around there are to drain buffs off of. |
This new/returning player thanks you! I was reading a lot of other guides and you spelled out some of the jargon. Also, the last time I played the Kheldians were just coming out.. I really appreciated this refresher course.

Yeah, I seriously need to do this one. Lemme see what I can hash out.
Aaaand updated to the Kheldian Section says something.
Small Kheldian notes that should be addressed but may or may not affect their numbering:
- The pets persist for a little while and actually stay active if you switch forms. So Black Dwarf potentially has its own firing squad and Bright Nova potentially has a protective minefield.
- Light Form offers a small amount of status protection. With high recharge it can be made permanent for Peacebringers.
Good work on the guide, Just one small suggestion to Masterminds:
You may want to mention that pets need to be in Defensive/Follow in order to be in Bodyguard mode to be active.
With the advent of Issue 22, I've updated the Stalker section of the guide to reflect changes to the Stalker's playstyle.
Well, I will be sending any friends who start as F2P to this thread. All in all an enjoyable read and I especially like how you went out of your way with the defender entry to point out there is more to support than healing in CoH.
