This is me. I make a cheapish IO build and start slotting from 27 (other than the uniques and ATOs which go in earlier). I'll also make a more expensive 50 build. When I hit 50 I'll decide if I want to go the Winters & Purples route, but that's only if I'm really liking the build and it'll add a lot. It's fun and late-30s IO builds can be pretty godly for the content. Feels good to be 37ish and be like "holy crap, can't believe I'm still alive"

Nice, great work Kaizen and glad my rambling code helped. On hols at the mo but I'll definitely have a look once back. Really like the index page idea. I considered it but then I'd be getting into usernames and accounts and I was too lazy 😀 One thing which is also cool about an "on pc" application is it can monitor/update the info while you play so hoping that's something on your radar (stream-parsing the active log file as you play).

I didn't because it was changing when I last made this build so couldn't slot into it. Thunderstrike is the cheap and cheerful option to get Ranged up towards the softcap. Or 5 purples. I do run Defensive Amplifier on this character basically perma (he's also my money making character so I can afford it with 20 mins crafting & selling work) so that gets me pretty much capped to both anyway. I checked, I actually have 3 thunderstrike, 3 procs in it now. With Def Amplifier that gives me just 45%

No need to feel naked. This is pricy (by my standards) but is a machine https://forums.homecomingservers.com/topic/47465-hello-and-thanks-for-your-time-if-youre-reading-this/?do=findComment&comment=599372

I tried but when I fired up Mids it updated and immediately started throwing exceptions and refusing to load anything. Mids is all over the place at the moment. Very frustrating. Let me see if I can fix it.... Edit, right reinstall and avoid the latest update seems to have sorted it Cheap build Expensive version

And raised from the dead. It did its thing where it forgets about the 2nd disk mount for whatever reason.

That's why I like to stack them one below the other, the originals let you know how long is left to recharge.

Actually if we're talking the change from Soul Drain to Spirit Drain in the Dark pool for Corruptors and Defenders you lose the set bonuses when keeping the old set there, but keep the enhancement values. So chances are you've already lost the +recharge set bonus and whatever else. My DP/Kin has, I assume, the same Oblit in there but when it changed I lost the melee defence. Posted about it at the time of the change multiple times in the beta forums but the devs never acknowledged it. Ended up just going with 3 Artillery and a load of procs and using it as another AoE attack.

It does. In terms of logging Containment just looks like another line of damage in the logs. There isn't even a "Containment" added to it, unlike Scourge or SHOCKED! so I've no way to show what % is containment damage. It all looks part of the main power in the log file.

The Graphs tab is probably your best friend, I've a graph for damage taken by type. Remember this is after ToHits and Resists of course. These are pulled from the Defensive part of the Tree tab (Offensive is outgoing damage & stuff, Defensive is attacks coming in). Individual attacks against you are here. Not sure why the individual Damage Types aren't being filled in though, they should be (Offensives are)

Try it and parse it via my online parser. Because it's a pseudo it'll give you the procs as subpowers of itself so you'll see how often they go off. Beta is a good place, you can slot it how you like try it on target rich radios (x8) and on smaller settings. And/or test it in "AV like" fights using a pylon. Generally overall patches aren't the best for procs, unless they are weird ones like Volcanic Gases or Carrion Creepers. That said looking at the power on CoD I think damage procs will be good and Slow ones will work far less often (because the damage is a "direct" effect and the Sleep & Slow is a patch). So I reckon Posi, Bombardment & Jav are the way to go here along with some Acc/Recharge IOs. But that's just me theory-crafting. Haven't tried it to verify.

It's not a Secondary, rather an epic, but Ice Storm does do a reduced amount of Containment damage and is a pseudo. I think it's just inconsistency across powers developed over loads of years by lots of different people (your Acid / Gale example for example).

So they do, they also have Containment for the Controller version. Weird. I assume during the last upgrade to FF the Powers dev added it in. Technically they shouldn't have but I like the precedent. Most annoying for me is Enflame. That won't do Containment or Scourge AND they gave Controllers the same damage modifier as Masterminds. Arcane Bolt supports both. It irks me deeply.

Why do you want Sleet to Scourge? The damage is crap anyway (I've just checked Freezing Rain in an old combat log I had on my Plant/Storm by parsing it and it's 1/5th of the damage of Tornado and unlike Tornado that'll be spread across a lot of enemies). Generally secondaries don't Scourge / do Containment damage. Primaries and Epics should, to some extent (Ice Storm in Controller epics is 50% containment damage for some reason, direct attacks like Fireball & Fissure do Containment as normal). In Corruptor Dark epic Dark Consumption and Soul Drain do scourge (hilariously because it can target corpses Soul Drain will often pop up a load of SCOURGE messages on dead things). Although my Water / Trick Arrow is fully on board with the idea of Scourging Oil Slick Arrow (and my Plant/Storm and Grav/TA up for Containing secondary shenanigans too). It doesn't but it should. LS in general isn't great for the stupidly high End costs. It's defined in each power (or not) individually as is Containment. So there'd be work in adding them to each Corruptor and Controller secondary (on the plus side it means one could define a rule like "Secondaries do half the Containment / Scourge damage" if they liked / wanted to take a cautious approach. Looks like this in CoD. https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=epic.dark_mastery.dark_consumption&at=corruptor https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=pets.sleet.sleet&at=corruptor
