I appreciate the feedback. Most of my builds I try to aim for high performance, but not necessarily meta or needing incarnate crutching to be effective. I also try to swing some things to exempt and level well like taking a travel power at or prior to level 14, getting most used power pools by level 37 so I can save the last power selections a LotG mules or patron/epic attacks. I try to focus the builds strengths and lean into them. Part of the preference is my builds aiming for resists/HP as a means of survival and this is a number of reasons. 1) In an MMO setting people tend to team more often than not, and with the amount of support leaning heavily on +defense like particular buff powers(force field, cold domination, time, ect) as well as leadership power pools that can be taken on any AT. 2) Purple inspirations offer higher percentage values with an easier to attain softcap than what an orange inspiration has to offer and goal to reach. So if people are concerned on solo'ing, then that isnt an issue either. I typically dont add in goals like what difficulty it can handle or what sort of groups can they or can not handle, as that can be skewed from player experience, whether or not they factor in outside sources such as inspirations, amplifiers, SG buffs, ect. I have 139 current builds that I level up myself (not farms) so i have a lot of experience with what tends to work easier vs a late bloomer and people can feel free to ask in discord or here.

Correct, there are two specific ones you can skip that bypasses the cutscenes in Aeon and MLTF. There's another way to bypass MLTF cutscene, but not sure if that has been fixed or not as I have not tried it in a couple of years.

do you have the latest update of mids? Typically it is easier to uninstall/reinstall as the update button is wonky.

I have plenty of tankers in there, just may have to scroll down further or just hit me up in the HC discord.

I do, should be in there as I posted my builds through October of last year

Hello, I have been an avid player of City of Heroes Homecoming since April 29th 2020 and have been playing regularly since. I have made hundreds of characters and have tried out as many powers as I can aside from mostly Masterminds and Warshades. I have tried my hand at making builds, but had a very low understanding of the game mechanics and was just sort of winging it. Thanks to the very helpful folks from this community I have learned and expanded my own understanding of the game and my playstyle has changed alongside my builds to better help with my performance as a player. I have seen a lot of people reaching out on discord and have tried to give them assistance on power picks, why I chose them and why my builds are set up in their own way. It was suggested to me that I should create a dropbox for those looking for builds whether they just wanted something that was going to do well on paper, what powers were selected or skipped or maybe just to see other ways people used their enhancements on certain powers for a different point of view. The ones below in the dropbox only go back as far as October of 2023 because I am always trying to learn and sometimes I will pick up new ways of building and that was as early as I can recall my builds needing to be where I wanted them. Either way, I finally went ahead and created a dropbox that is available for all to look through and download onto their Mids Reborn file. My builds tend to lean into what the respective Archetypes are while also trying to make them viable for damage. Such as tankers trying to hit key survival number whether they are geared towards resists, so I am for resists and HP due to no defense debuff resists, or particular defensive softcaps for those needed to be defensive sound. All this while trying to have survival where it needs to be, without going overkill, and then focusing on damage usually as to not make people feel like they are stuck to one role and they can help the team with added DPS. The builds are typically named as their archetype following the powers selected, however, some have some notes after that to specify if they are made for someone specifically at the time or if they were created with caveats (more range def, farmers, ECT). And of course feel free to message me on discord if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you all for your time and hope to meet you in Paragon! https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/hwx82vd3r8hrdog2qpz2s/h?rlkey=3r5ul8przukc2sx69udgb6ed7&dl=0

I am here to give my thoughts and feelings about arsenal control. To start, I want to go what I do like about the set. I do like the variety of the control options and I like how it can appeal to natural origin heroes/villains. I also do enjoy cryo freeze, liquid nitrogen and flashbang What I think can be improved: I think Smoke Canister's confuse time is a little short, or feels short, compared to its counterparts and I have no real immobilize to keep them in place. What I think is a choice: The stealth toggle is something, idk how to feel about it. I like it, just seems like an odd choice is all. What I do not enjoy: I really wish one of the powers could be swapped for an aoe immobilize to help keep enemies in place while I lay down more CC. I do like that I have lots of options of aoe mez, but would probably bring it together if I had a way to keep enemies in place with an immobilize aoe option. The drone: It's fine imo.

What is the damage type from the bosses' nuke?

At first I thought the attacks were being messed with because I had the targeting drone on. I de-toggled the targeting drone and still have the attacks appear to the far right of my character's weapon placement.

Every time I try to open up Mids i'm met with an error code. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still running into the same issue. Do I need to save it to a specific file in my computer?

I went with the annihilation IOs for damage and the -res procs.

I'm surprised to see builds with My. I think Leviathan has more synergy and you get a really cool AoE with water spout.

How do people slot Cauterizing Aura? Or I should say, do you get more out of it with heals or endurance? Either way, I six slot it to get range defense from sets. It's also been suggested to use preventive medicine for the 8% recharge, which is always a plus for non-purple sets.

I wish I could see the export of just the powers and moves on mobile, but all it's showing me is the import link. Either way i have the links saved and I'm very curious to see the amount of slots and used IOs for bonfire.
