If you like illusions, might I recommend Rad as a secondary? It's a really, really good combo.

Psi is a solid choice. But like all Psi the things that are resistant to it, are REALLY resistant to it. WP is also a solid choice. Conceptually it offers good resistance to Psi if that's important to you.

My Grav/Kin is one of my favorite characters (and I have a lot!). He looks good, he sounds good, he controls good, and kins good. He really does everything and throws out respectable damage all by himself. I like Time but I don't think it synergizes as well as Kin does. Gravity can pull a group right on top of you and your group, Fulcrum shift and all the other debuffs/buffs and then your group chews them to pieces. Rinse, repeat, enjoy.

Hey all, I have a concept for a Gorilla character but I can't seem to make a convincing looking Ape. Anyone have any recommendations?

I read that this is a good combo with excellent AOE potential for a Stalker. I'm playing one now in the mid 20s and boy is he End thirsty! Does anyone with some experience have a good build I could steal....err look at?

I tend to pick the travel power "Speed of Sound/Jaunt" on my Stalkers for that quick combat teleport. Recently I picked it for my /Shield Defense Stalker and I found that when I have Hide toggled and use Jaunt, it locks my character in the Teleport animation instead and not the usual, quick Jaunt animation. When I untoggle the power it works as normal.

No one said DM/DA so I will. He's a weird little puff of smoke that can lay waste to a room. Proc our dark Regen for a little AoE and touch of fear can drop a hard target's to-hit into the basement. My favorite bit, I'll probably recycle on all my stalkers (and probably scrappers) is the Experimentation power pool. The travel power gives you and instant teleport (not at all like the teleport pool) and I have it keybound to do all sorts of teleport blinks around. Blink-kill-blink-kill-blink-kill. It's great fun.

Welcome back, it's really good to be back! Remember you have 1000 character slots, so you can make a lot of different characters and you have free costume changes until level 10, so take advantage of that. A couple of things: Download Mids, so you can view and plan out your character. Download Vidiots maps. It'll mark badges and other pieces of interest on your in-game maps. Look through guides section. A lot of helpful things there that will change your life! Find your server's public base teleport so you have easy access to zone teleports. Have fun!

I just made a hero where every costume was male face 1. I feel like a monster.

Ok here is what I came up with. I opted to take the T1 attack since I can use it while incaped and I don't like the breath attacks.

Would you forgo slotting procs in attacks when I can put them in Time's Hold ability? Would you skip the tier 1 attack and Bitter Freeze Ray?

Working on a concept for a Ice/Time build and I'm wondering if there's an efficient way to slot Ice. There's a lot of single target attacks, and a lot of holds that can hold some juicy procs. Any experts want to weigh in and give some advice on best practices?

So this is my effort to make a functional endurance sapper build. It's kind of a one trick pony and by the time targets are fully drained, they are usually dead (especially in groups) but it's an effort that I stuck to. Solo, it does very well. If I can survive the initial alpha then most targets are left drained after Thunderous-Short Circuit-Energy Drain. Most targets just sort of run around and take a beating from ball lightning and my single target damage. This build really took off (as most do) once I got into incarnates. It's probably the only build that takes Preemptive Interface. There's a few slots I know I can tweak, but I lack the merits currently. It's mostly Winter enhancements in some powers, but overall this is the build. I'd welcome ANY feedback. If there's anything I'm missing or if I can eek out a little more def/resist without losing a lot of damage then I'm all ears. This is the first build I've posted.

Hey all, I'm looking for help with my Mind/Psi dom. There doesn't seem to be a lot of solid builds on this forum as I think other power sets get more attention. My Dom is starting to build steam and I'm really enjoying him so I'm looking for a build as a near 50. I'm mainly looking at solid solo and TF builds with soft cap defenses. Thanks to anyone for the help.

I love my Cross Punch. I didn't take Hurl out of SS (I don't like the animation, doesn't fit my theme) and it fits in the rotation nicely. It especially shines in large groups where the cone is going to hit multiple enemies. I'd say take it if you have the room and have kick and/or boxing.

So I didn't do the outbreak tutorial and I blew through the Oroboros intro quest and forgot to farm the contaminated for the badge. Is there anyway for me to go back and get this badge?

Yeah I totally agree. I get down the rabbit hold and spend more time theory crafting than I do actually playing... Now IF you were to put hasten in, where would you put it? Drop stealth and deal with the loss of defense? Can it be recovered anywhere else to stay at caps?

I noticed in your NRG/NRG build you don't have hasten built in it? Do you level with it and then respec out at 50? Is there any way to keep hasten at 50 without gimping defense?

So I've slowly been working on a human only Peacebringer. I just hit 30 last night and it's been a slog. Hitting any quantums in a mission will require a lot of forethought before I run in. The reason I like the PBs is the theme of it. I love how the powers look, I love the variety of powers they have but I'm struggling now with keeping him going. Light form seems so far away. I have other toons that when I play range damage it just feels like a more complete package, whether it's my blaster or corrupter or even my sentinel, they all just seem to do it better then my PB. So help me figure out why I should continue my PB. What do they do really well? What makes it worthwhile down the road? If I want to do big, spectacular AoE nukes why the PB over any other class?

SO I started my first Corrupter and went with a Psi/Time. I know there are probably better combos but I like the look of the two together and being able to lockdown recharge and regen on AVs I think would be valuable down the road. Having said that, since I'm new to the Corrupter, I'm looking for build advice. Out of both powers what are the must have powers and what are the skippable powers? And does anyone have a sample build for this combo?

What do you think about this: I slot Punch with Mako's Bite. Cross Punch with Avalanche And Foot Stomp Overwhelming Force +1 Brute's Fury I like that I get a little Psi/Toxic and Ranged Def from Mako's and I get a 3% damage buff. Thanks for the feedback, Hyperstrike. I remember following your builds on the old forums, it's really great to see you here.

I've just started getting into the auction house and trying to buy IOs for my toon. Is there a place that shows the typical or average price for certain IOs? I feel like I've got a lot of things as bids but nothing that sells outright. I don't want to over bid, as Inf is tight, but I want to give a fair market value for IOs I need.

I have a question for Snarky and anyone else that wants to chime in. First I love this build, I just hit 42 on mine yesterday and I feel like I'm cheating. It really can do just about anything. Now on to my question: I didn't pick up Hurl. I never liked the power. It takes too long and for theme reasons I opted out of it. I picked up Cross Punch out of the Fighting pool instead, and I don't regret it yet. It's nice to have another up close small AOE and it just looks cool. So since I can't slot Winter's Bite IOs in it, what would you recommend to put in there instead? Do I need Hurl to get the extra def/rest the bonuses give?

Thanks for the build and great info @Rathstar. I Got my blaster to 20 last night following your advice and I'm loving it.

Can you send me the Mids link to this build? The one you posted does not seem to want to work for me. Thanks!
