Two questions, one easy, one...not so much.

Hi community,

i just returned after a five year (or so) layoff for personal reasons and I remebered that I left my main, a 46 ice/ice/cold blaster, with ZERO enhancements slotted. I know, pretty dumb, but here's the problem. I am one bub from 47 and lvl 50 enhancements so I don't want to buy anything now. Running lvl 46 missions, however, totally un-enhanced is...well, tough. Can anyone think of a easy way to get a bub of exp?

Question two: if someone wanted to point me to a nice build that is up-to-date with all the new rules, it would be greatly appreciated. For instance, the last time I played you had to take Fitness to get stamina...and there were no set bonuses or unique IO's.

thanks

1) DFB. It's the new version of sewer farming, but it works at any level, since you're exemplared waaaaay down to get in. The returns are not very good at high levels, but it should get you at least one bubble. Go to atlas park and you should find people broadcasting for runs quickly enough (depending on server, may have to do around prime-time).

2) Search for Mids' Hero Builder and play around with it. Once you have something rudimentary post it to the build forum or the blaster forum and you'll get some feedback.

What server are you on? I have a soft spot for ice/ice blasters. I can probably help.

Street sweeping against blues and greens is also an option, although at your high level the XP rate will be quite slow.

This weekend is a double XP weekend. You should be able find a team and tag along to get that last bubble or so in no time. (Double XP weekends bring a lot of folks out of the woodwork, teaming tends to be much easier.)

All zones (except pocket d) have 8 exploration badges now. Get the Vidiotmaps Map pack so you can find them all in-game. It'll take a while, but you'll be pretty safe running around low level zones getting the things.

Heck, i run around as a level 2 through higher-level zones to get the things... it's fun!

First thing: getting a basic set of level 50 SO's is going to cost something like four-five million inf. If you don't have that lying around there are a lot of sssssslightly laborious ways of getting a spare million or two from the market. It's just sitting there waiting for you to pick it up, literally. (buy L50 yellow recipes for a couple hundred inf, sell them to a vendor for 5000 . Repeat with all you can carry, twenty times.) Boring work, but it will get you to the level of basic functionality.

Or send me a tell at @Boltcutter and I'll throw 10 million starting inf your way.
