I've found just running the content and using the Reward Merits and Hero/Villain Merits I acquire goes a very long way towards kitting out a character.

Does the AE farming still work though? I head it pooped out. ((<--- HEARD it pooped out))
EDIT: also, what about fire/fire? I have a fire/fire brute level 40 that I was AE farming with (I dont hount him as being my highest because he is pure AE farmed lol)

You don't need 6 billion to make a fire/kin controller "good".

Before IOs, fire/kin controllers were farming at what would today be +2/6 with 2 million (that M, not B) inf SO builds. You certainly don't need 6B to "make it good".

Many builds still can be pretty viable just with SO's (or common IO's), a tray of insperations and its all fun. My 46 kin/fire is fully SO-based, he can farm pretty decent on warriors (or alike) missions.
You can slowly work up your way for set IO's, cheap ones first, later the more fun ones.
anthing/fire brute or fire/anything tank are also fairly cheap initialy, from 28/22 you can pretty much start soloing AE's (fire based) with just some inspirations as backup. From there you can make the build as expensive as you want, they still do just perfectly fine.
And yes, AE getting another nerf soon (ambush will have reduced exp per wave), but it wont hurt you that much if you are used to regular group-to-group farms.

Fire/Kins are a good traditional farming choice that are popular in part because you can get a decent build for relatively little inf (no point in pouring billions of inf into a character that's supposed to be generating inf, not sucking it up).
Producing the exact result you need in search can be a bit finickey at times. I suggest you go to the Advanced search page and plug in "fire/kin"+cheap+build, set the forum to the top level AT section, and the time range to 'any', and check out the results. Someone even put a couple of cheap builds on the new build forum.
Remember that you can pick up any specific very expensive IOs by buying them with Hero or Villain Merits.

Yup, I used to solo freaks on Unyielding with 5-6 people on the team with no problem well before IOs were introduced. That character now has maybe 5 IOs in her build, it hasn't really changed much since then.|

Fire/Kin controllers are already killing machines at 50 with SOs, adding a tweaked out set-IO build is just icing on the cake of death (cake or death?).

So I have been looking into Fire/Kin controllers, because curently my highest level AT is a 37 fire/kin troller. But it seems like to make them good is gonna cost like 6 billion influence. I have like 19mil inf right now.
So what would be a good first level 50 AT that doesnt take a billion-gagillion influence to make them decent? And something that can farm as well so maybe I can start thinking about the fire/kin troller.
So, any input on a good AT that is pretty powerful for farming and killing shiz at level 50 that is cheap? Thanks!
