Mr. Apocalypse

I just did a quick test on my bots/dark/mu. My comparison was a fresh copy of my current live build. running some sweeps in the North of Grandville. What I noticed was my live toon was very survivable, My beta copy struggled to keep henchmen alive, my bots were running out of end, I was running out of end, and in general. I will need to do more testing, but not a big fan of these changes so far., My build is very solid, and I feel it will nerf not enhance several aspects, by forcing new power choices and slotting . which will drastically change my play style. I will have to do some more controlled testing, but all of these extreme changes to the core mechanics of the game in the last issue, plus these potential changes to my main, are really starting to sour me on the whole coming back to play City of heroes experience.

This is one that was done by an old SG mate, back around 2006. Sadly so much time has passed that I have forgotten his name. He was a professional artist, and had worked on a few games at the time. With his permission, I colorized the art, and used it as my thumbnail on the old forums, and re used it here as well. he also did a few for some other SG mates, but I only have the thumbnail versions of those.

Unfortunately, that one, along with about 50 other good chicken/fire themed names I tried were unavailable. When That happens I tend to go for translations of the desired name, in some other language, Usually Spanish or French, but I have used Latin and Swahili also (if it fits the character, then I don't mind a translated name), I have even hit a roadblock doing this. Maybe once names start to free up from accounts that are no longer active, I will be able to score some better ones that fit my toons, but until then, I have to just make due

thanks

I think this will be my final Barnyard animal. I have run out of ideas for now. 🙂 Grey Hare - Illusion/Time Controller The rabbit thing has been done many times over, not an overly original design, but rounds out my collection.

Continuing with my barnyard animal theme, Here is Hog for Hire, he is an Assault rifle / Ninjitsu Sentinal. A mutant pig who is now retired from the military, and is putting his skills out on the open market. "Dirty deeds done dirt cheap!" is his motto, and being a pig, he knows a thing or two about dirt!

wow, so many Builds here. I have poured over the pages and I can seem to find a fire melee/Dark armor brute. Have you ever done one?

So i have been inspired yet again, this time by barnyard animals.. The Mighty Moootation Rad/Rad Tanker . He is a bull, that has mutated and become a smart, and tough superhero, with a grudge against bull fighters. This next one has been a tough one to name. and pick a power set I like. Currently named Diabolus Gallus (Latin; The Devil Rooster) and is a Fire Aura/Titan Weapon tanker. But I think I am going to re-roll. Any suggestions on AT and powers? One power set must be fire. The concept is The angry God of Chickens. Sometimes seen by humans as evil, but always championed by chickens. He is here on earth to stop the cruel slaughter of his fellow chickens.

I put together a meld from you inspiration pics, Its not exactly Samurai (I really don't like the way the Samurai pieces fit/flow), but has a bit more Chinese feel. Hope you can get some more inspiration from it. I like it so much, I ended up wanting to use it for myself. Thinking a Claws/? or dual Blades/?

I think I have settled on a design, I really wanted some blue as well, but I was just too much in my previous designs. I was really partial to the white clothing, but that was too much black in the trim. What I have now is the result of no less than 20 different versions. I changed up the face as well, I think it now looks much better. If only there was a jackal ear option, until then Rat ears it is.

I had a name and concept pop into my head. All of the recent Egyptian themed costumes got my gears turning. I came up with this. Anubis Prime - Staff/Dark scrapper Not yet sure what look I like the best

Thanks

my bad, I see that now.. I i didn't there was another beside us two commenting in this thread..

I didn't 3 slot hasten, it is 2 slotted +5's in my build. I also noticed you evaluation of my end use/recovery in the other post with included build rework. On my Mids totals, it is showing 3.95 recovery/2.95 usage. not 2.94/2.95 respectively. I am planning on taking ageless, and I think it should remedy the problem, but I do see the heavy end costs affecting right now. I do however like the changes you made to my build, I may give them a try once I am done with my incarnates. I like the added end reduction, (who wouldn't?) and any tradeoffs seem minimal I will only need to add/replace a few enhancements and the loss of Chords seems minimal, based on all the other powers available. Thanks

Weird, I just tried it and it loaded no issues for me. There was a small patch to the new version of mids, have you checked for updates? anyways, here is the data chunk | Copy & Paste this data into Mids Reborn : Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1735;733;1466;HEX;| |78DA75944B4F135114C7FF339D8A052A201428148122CACB42D1E8C2174F13A58D2| |44D5CA93881293442DBB435B15FC3C4F00D54DC99280F8D2BB7BAD3B8D0052A223E| |10840F504F7BE6E8B5C44967E6D7F3BAFF7BEEBD13BE3D52FEEA6568005AE5F0AC9| |94E4F0C27E299546276D64A39C3E6746CD201C01D89C5A7E9D7123133D9540959DA| |FE86494620929D4BCE24E25931B42A3143B7A2D1C08899BA19B7688CC16834168F6| |5B2281F4F5062C8329354BDB4F02792B4AC2977012FC4A66732E4A890A8292B959E| |89257DA3C9D86440A91E36272D7AA433562A5B4FEADAE93EDD4D0F0D72E59C4027C| |D256840478FC09C56000317751B46D9B50F26B99A0CACD6ED29B321215F19F6E39B| |C0778652FC10D86438436A34A58CA1E11E7BCAF190E100EE0B3C60A8C402C30712E| |150B2E1407E764117CED2DBA9CA73E2AA6E275F633888EB02130C35B82160329CA3| |32256A9912F4B3A716C7054E30D4E3A4C0298606AC721F3F924E975AC6854509596| |2F061596085E1109E0A3C63384F6ACAD43265A837EC102F430B1A041A057C0CADF9| |65CBC32752E3567BEEC625DD0E19130831B421CC10C4658635CAAE50B21D15F0687| |66C8D4025C3618CF1420D90F22A5579151E1B76C81381458623581258165861F84C| |6357AB6357CBD847B1E3B0E197C02E432D9D4B8FBA493C92E4274F9DE2D1EA64FB7| |40A0CD2DBAB84E85EBCD60B07A0136F04DE32AC93BA46EDCFA1C8698DB2EFBB64DF| |6B346213142D4DC8D185211AA659ED4F33B6743B755B6087A107BB02C302F63E735| |079BF3A217F617EA4ED18FA59C106896C575BD88E35DD0E5917F8C2D08B0D86BB55| |4087DA850E6961AFAC79AFACB9411ABA550DDD121B9490360A09A82101BC935DF69| |EE1398DD8A72E5A1F16D893DFC4CA95CBF98A0C0523F53464FCFB85A2DBC525C60D| |D5411E8D33364BF76414EC3FFF63DFDA6BBFC233DC2EF210CEEBF667ED0EC38B2E6| |A823A0F6F0DD9959CDC58759161BED8E0F214191EF98B0CBF01B259EFBB| |-------------------------------------------------------------------|

You deserved the win at the Girls of Nukem High CC, Very original design, great bio, etc. (I stink at making Bios for mine, so I generally don't). I an jealous of the whole package you put together. I wish I had come up with it first 😄. I must admit, since I placed 1st in a contest months back with my Tribal Warrior - Shuja Wa Giza, I am constantly trying to come up with better and better designs looking for that next elusive win. I was actually surprised I place in the top 10 much les getting 3rd with Vindsvalr the other night, when there were so many great costumes entered.

So I originally rolled The Singing Satyr as a Symphony/Dark Dom and got it leveled up to 50, but I was unhappy with it for a couple of reasons, so I re rolled as a Symphony/Dark Controller and recycled the costume. However I will not delete a LVL 50 . So My Symphony/Dark Dom got a sex change and a new name. Now She is know as Black Opera

Here is the build I ended up going with. Still toying around with it. The build is tough as nails, but very end heavy. Still need to get my incarnates unlocked an fleshed out. https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1755&c=734&a=1468&f=HEX&dc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

I am just looking for a some build ideas to see how others are doing their builds , I know how to fish already. and if there is a great build, I'll try it. Thanks 🙂

works perfect, thanks

When I open your build via the data link, it is all messed up. none of the symmphony powers are selected, and some show up in the build as sonic powers. You build also shows that it was made with version 3.2.17, which did not support the symphony powers or at least I did not think it did. I'm running the newest 3.4.6 build.

I have a Symphony/Dark that I PL'd to 50 after playing it enhancement free to level 20 and just picking random powers. I really have not slow played either symphony control, or Dark assault past about level 20, so I really don't know what the best powers to take from each set or slotting strategies that should be used or what incarnate powers to best compliment these sets? I am looking for a solid build to do solo content through Oroborous.. and maybe once I get fully accustomed to how it plays do some incarnate trials, etc. I have plenty of Inf. so cost is no object. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It was a really good turnout. lots of really good costume designs. As usual though, my ability to take screenshots eluded me, and I did not think to take a single one. 😞

Really Nice
