Kheldian superficial showoff showdown!

AlienOne's inclusion of a screen of his set bonus stack in his last build thread inspired me to start this. Note: This is just for funsies. It is not an actual competition. City of Heroes Freedom is not responsible for any damages incurred.

Without further ado, show us whatcha got!

Did I win already?

I'd post mine, but It would only say "Run speed increase x1" >.>

What's with the funky looking recharge IOs?


Be well, people of CoH.

If you're talking about THB's enhancement screen, I'm pretty sure that's Corva's Power icon/Enhancement/inspiration pack...

That reminds me, I need to reinstall mine. I haven't installed it since installing CoH on my new laptop.

A new build. Classic look.

AIB has the most iconic costume in the game.

I'm really tempted to enter into this, not because I have any epeen in this contest, but just because I have a shade that has maybe 8 set/unique bonuses, a couple tier3 incarnate powers and he's still fully functional in +2/x8 and incarnate content with few defeats (which is what I have a self rez for) and is just outright my second most fun character to play (I am in love with my Illusion/Sonic troller...sorry). The AT is fully playable without a full compliment of IOs and like all the other ATs it only becomes rediculously good when you add them. While I'm sure all of us are aware of this, I think it sometime it gets lost in the IO build noise and the most impressive accomplishments you 'gentlemen' have here

Nobody ever said if you didn't deck out your Warshade you couldn't still be effective. We all know that the MFing Warshade shines on any budget. We're just proud of how decked out our favorite characters are.

Amen. This is open to everyone... It's sort of a quasi-show-off-your-costume-as-well-as-your-set-bonuses-and-where-you-like-to-hang-out-and-tell-us-a-little-about-yourself sort of deal...

Not really a contest.

It's also worth noting that so far, all the Warshades who have posted here are under 5 feet tall.

Not the most pricey but one of my favorite toons to play currently. I rolled him as a human form WS back when khelds first came out and didn't play him for a long while until human form finally got mez protection (in the form of Clarion).

Like a boss, Black.Heat chillin' in RWZ. How you doin' lady khelds?


Also, like all BAs are supposed to be, I am 7 ft tall.


 

Posted

Greetings, brother Warshades. I think it is my turn?

Psst. The whole point of moving the hecatomb proc to Essence Drain is so that you can slot the purple hold proc in Gravity Well and have a purple proc in your whole attack chain. IMO it's worth dropping the Steadfast KB protection since you can put BOTz in Shadow Recall and Shadow Step.

Oh? Because I have a chatlog of you saying the opposite.

Huh? The last time I mentioned it to you I said to do just that. It's the reason I put the hecatomb proc in my E Drain on my last respec, to purple proc my whole attack chain.

edit I think I know what you're talking about, I said not to slot the lockdown hold proc but that was to make it so you could use the purple hold proc, which is a damage proc.


 

Posted

I didn't realize this was a "Critique my build" thread.

I'm relatively sure the word lockdown was never mentioned (definitely not by me), but I can look that up when I get home.


 

Posted

I just saw you put the Hecatomb proc in E Drain like I suggested and wanted to clear up any crossed signals, since the reason I suggested it in the first place was that Hecatomb takes a purple damage proc from a different set.

I think you sent me a build sketch that used the lockdown proc in G Well at the end (I remember being reminded of one of Alien's builds since he does that too) and that's when I suggested the change.

Yes, I took your initial advice to stick to unbreakable restraint in the build, and then you told me to take it (the proc) out. And so here we are, with you asking why it isn't in.

I could've sworn the draft you sent me had the +2mag proc in it, not the smashing damage proc. I would've told you to take the former out.

It probably did. You told me to put the smashing damage in. I did. And then you told me to take it out. I did. And now here we are. Talking about my build in a thread about set bonuses.

Dear Kheld Brethren,

I ask that you do not mar this great thread by squabbling over a few enhancements. Going from pictures of AWESOME to discussions over minutiae, however jovial they may be, detracts.

I thank both you in advance for your understanding and compliance.

Have a nice day.

Sincerely,

AIB

P.S.

I commend both of you on your great shades.
