I have every powerset in the game at level 50 at least once except for: Beast Mastery Mercenaries Ninjas Thugs Electricity Assault Radioactive Assault Sonic Assault Thorny Assault

As far as I know, Dark Consumption wasn’t buffed when Consume was. So I’m open to that. Consume was already substantially buffed and is in good shape, though. I like that they added features to it instead of just lowering the recharge.

The game itself hasn’t been very interesting in awhile. I’m just here because my friends are here.

Tankers are better.

So, Titan Weapons

Take Fire Blast and don’t take either of the other two. Your best attacks are Blaze, Blazing Bolt, Freezing Touch, and Char.

Storm Blast + Pyronic Judgement checks both boxes.

Just giving every character in the game with the fighting pool a free extra power pick is obviously a non-starter for anyone that cares about balance, difficulty, etc. I would personally be embarrassed to be caught asking for blanket freebie buffs all over the place but oh well. Here are a couple of ideas to buff Boxing and Kick instead. What if they both affected Tough and Weave like they do Cross Punch? (1) Boxing grants one of the toggles mag 2 stun protection and the other toggle some modest stun resistance. So similar protection to stuns as Acrobatics grants for holds. Kick grants one of the toggles mag 4 KB protection and the other toggle some modest KB resistance. (2) Tough and Weave base values are cut in half, but having Boxing or Kick each doubles their value. So you get the same thing you get now with one power, or 1.5x what you get now with both powers. I would probably prefer this option as it’s less power creepy - technically only a buff if you pursue both Boxing and Kick. Both would be plain and simple buffs to the Fighting pool, but neither would just flat out give everyone free power picks like the “buff me!” junkies want. Which is what I hope like hell we can avoid.

Yeah. They must’ve decided dual auras should be special.

Given the current state of Darkness Manipulation, I don’t really see why not.

I feel like they’ve basically given us a dual aura option with the prismatic aether effects.

Ah yes, the dismissive comments when respondents disagree with the OP. 🙄 Reminds me of who’s too fragile for meaningful discussion.

That’s what we call a toggle in this game yeah

Learning how the game works before telling everyone else how it should work… is a good thing.

I’m not sure what I think is ideal one way or the other, but I’m curious: would you be willing to give up Cremate instead for Combustion? After all, that’s what every non-tanker AT originally had to give up Combustion for…

If you have enough accuracy bonuses and +tohit, then just slot 6 Preventive Medicines.

I don’t owe you an explanation of the current meta. Cold Domination is currently the most in-demand set in the game along with Kinetics. It’s obvious why it shouldn’t be buffed to anyone who’s paying attention. Now stop throwing tantrums.

And then people simply removed Fire Swords from farming missions, resulting in absolutely no change whatsoever. Saying farms were nerfed by Fire Sword defense debuffs is disingenuous nonsense.

Well it failed completely if that were true.

Buffing Cold Domination as it is today would be a stupid idea.

Would this bring back the old bug where enemies will occupy the same exact space, and you can hit a whole stack of foes with one single target attack?

Disagreement is not vitriol.

I’m pretty old fashioned here: “if you want claws you should probably play Claws”

They can skip Fighting if it’s breaking the build, I guess. It’s really not that important to have Fighting.

I gotta say: telling us you take every last power down to bad ones like Elude and then telling us you just have no options… well, it seems like you might be your own worst enemy when it comes to builds.
