Thermal is a pretty busy one. I somewhat agree with your take on Fire but I almost always team so the lower damage is often mitigated. I tried a couple of proc monsters and you sacrifice a lot of set bonuses to proc out powers. I would rather not do this as, again, I team. For solo players, I guess it's a different story.

Wow some great info on the powerset. Thanks a ton, all. I went in a bit of a different direction: Thermal/Dark. Any builds on that combo?

Any chance you could hold Gaia as well as Jade, Achilles and Aegis for me until I get home from work? 7pm PST-ish.

Does anyone have a Thermal build? I think I want to try Therm/Sonic. I'm not sure how to slot and assign stuff for this combo but it seems like a good debuff and team helper. Much appreciated 🙂

I don't know if I can play MMs but it would be a nice set for them... I just couldn't get into them. I know some tougher stuff requires heals and debuff stuff and so does some lower level content. I used healing often and enjoy playing at less than uber ability.

I'm working under the premise that new art assets will be rare in this game. I know another server has done some innovative stuff with costume pieces (underarm wings!) but not here. not yet. HC could make larger strides with innovation and new ideas. The content that has been added is not that great. A writer and mission designer would really be a good add. I appreciate and the HC crew and am glad they're kind enough to volunteer and provide us with this game. It's still awesome 🙂 Boy, not on topic at all here! 😉

So, I am a fan of the AT but never see this power (ok, rarely if ever). I have never given Thermal a real chance but feel like I want to take it for a test spin. There isn't much new content so the altitis is kicking in - especially with the Great Name Release of 2024. Can people suggest a good secondary and provide builds? I'm also interested in discussions about the powerset. Is it worth playing? Is there a magic combo? What's your attack chain? Thanks for your time :)

I think the CoX Dev team made some big blunders that helped sound the death knell for this once epic game. Going Rogue was poorly assembled - to have another, separated started zone?! BAD idea. The saturation of Praetorian content was a big deal back when. The Incarnate system could've been handled better but, to be fair, the writing was on the wall and they just couldn't add enough content for the incarnate system. Lots of mistakes were made but we're back! I am hoping the HC Devs get some more help and try to become a bit more innovative with the content they add.

Again...I don't have the words so I will leave this instead...

Well, I would like to suggest maybe you're doing something wrong. Allow me to provide a list and make sure you're doing these things: 1) Turn your computer on. You can't play and team when your comp is off. You can't wish or use the Force to play without your comp. Please stop trying this. I am afraid you'll try so hard that you may shat yourself and bust your O ring. 2) Comp on then log on to the game. You need to have an account and a toon ready to play etc. 3) When/if you navigate 1 and 2 and get into the game, try typing. That's right...typing. Ask to join a team. Join a team being advertised in the LFG channel or others. Again, you can't use the Force to join a team and play. You must put in a bit of 'work', 4) Actually try and team and so on. I hope these suggestions help. Sincerely, Bartholomew J. Hutt

It's pretty good. There will be squabbles but still one of the better communities out there. If you can't take a little ribbing then life is not going to be kind to you...let alone any game.

I hesitate on BIO tanks due to the DDR issue. There is mitigation but I tend not to go DEF on tanks - some exceptions here, of course. Do you, by chance, have a build for a stone/staff tank? Does anyone? I am looking for softcap RES to most, if not atll, and whatever else...

I may have missed it, and apologies if I have, but do you have a build for stone/staff? I haven't messed around with staff before and was wanting to give it a go.

What is the viability of Stone/Staff? Staff is a big unknown as I've never really leveled a staff toon. If it's a good combo, do you have a build for it?

Interesting mechanic. I am not too into scrappers but want to try them out. Do you have a build and attack chain you could share? I was looking at MA/SR. Is Ninj better?

You wouldn't happen to have a good build for the 'punchy' DOM types, would you? You mentioned Ele/Earth...is that a good one?

Awesome. I shy away from Doms due to how expensive it is for high recharge (builds). I want to try Arse so I may give it a go...

Thanks for the build. So, you cast spirit ward on the cannon? How effective is that? Cool idea.

Any chance you can post this build?

Hey all! I haven't really gone to this AT. I am wondering if there is a combo that works well or plays well. What do you all like/prefer? Is there a powerset(s) that is much better or uber when a stalker uses it? I'd like to give it a go. Posting the build would be much appreciated!

I kinda agree with this...and kinda don't. HC made an epic mistake in giving 1,000 slots per shard. Ridiculous. They still refuse to reduce that number. I think enough warnings went out and if people didn't log in to save their names etc, then maybe they don't care to play anymore.

Does anyone have a pic for a bear themed toon? I was thinking a tank....INV/SS. Have that whole 'bear' look and all...

It seems these builds are no longer opening?

So, do we need to update our client before tonight's name event? The suspense...it is palatable...

I am looking for new stuff to try. How do you find AR? Where does it rank in the damage tiers? Secondary? I have a Fire/Dark CORR and he is pretty amazing. Durable with solid DPS.
