I huess I could roll up a toon on Victory. I'm currently having a case of Altitis, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Or just transfer one!

Yay nemesis badge!

Mmm, I thought a different power was mentioned in that block. Sorry, didn't notice it was also referring to the original power in question.

I don't really get why Wet Ice even has defense. Its only +1% defense. Can anyone tell me why they even bothered?
Defense procs! lotg, scaling, kismet, lots of useful things!

Wet ice you can only slot with either end redux or recharge redux. People typically universally slot it with 1 generic end redux IO.
Even def/end/(whatever) hamios? Last I checked you can shove those where set items and other bits dont belong...

I have done ice defense to cap before.
Currently though I am 15 (yay) and have two fundamental issues/questions...
Basically I believe I suck until energy absorption and generic so level ios? Correct?
Second, when slotting wet ice, do i slot _defense_ or _resist_ in increase the def debuff value. It says "+res def debuf" which implies to me that _resist_ slotting is what makes def debuff go up? Yay? Nay?
Lastly, I forgot the enormous hole that is fire def, only slightly supported by some fire res. 😐 😐 😐

Stripping a toon is a one way street. You won't ever get it to fit the way it was should you choose to revisit it, and as implied above, you might take it back up months or years later and say hey, I _get_ this toon now, and its fun.
I only recommend incomplete toons that cant function in the state they are currently are in and are missing critical components. I have found I end up going back to old toons and playing them after looking at the enh screen and saying hey, why did i like this? only to find _why i liked it_ and decide to just market more. -
Yeah, I had forgotten this happens. Thank you all for the reminder!

If you're looking for shards, they only drop in normal content. They don't drop in incarnate content.
Trick here....
Shards are the cheapest, most economical way to get your entry level common incarnate powers.
It is 12 shards for a common, vrs 60 threads.

I pulled 60 cats out of my storage. It cost me 2 cats for each ato/wintero that I converted.
What?!

I wanted to shout out to the courageous folk who went the entire 1-7 of SSA1 WWD this afternoon, in order, start to finish.
Some of us were there for the entire go, some dropped in or out or dropped out and back in.
Thank you all for this wonderful run.

It seems like we're getting not just people who played CoH years ago but some new folks putting on the cape. Welcome!
...
Hope this all helps!
I don't know if this person still visits, but we should update it to include the new powersets that have come out like storm, fish, and gunz.
-
Oh my god the synergy. The versatility. The craziness that is your bubble + tides + pool + storm cell all shoved together.
Absolute madness.
I noticed my power picks from /storm are a little different from others I have seen, but it works pretty awesome. I did not pick the stupid heal, because there is plenty of other soft control from fish/ to lay on top of /storm.
I am a little disappointed in cat5. But the whole thing is damn flashy and fun.Moar fish please!

Hang on, this is why I read forums for little tidbits like this. I had not conceived of putting shifting tides on my barrier reef. I wonder who else overlooked that potential.
There are lots of interesting things you can do, like dropping enflame on something which does crazy +damagez of you are low on it.

Hew, are only human, born to make mistaaaakes.
Excellent song there Flea! I made an homage to you over on Victory... my marketeer Flea Market!
Long time no see you guys!

Dang.
Dang dang, thanks, there is a LOT of junk in my character items.
Thanks! Its been a few years.

I opened two super packs. I did not bother to check on the first one to see if they went into inventory, because you know? super pack?
This morning (230 am est) I opened a second one, which said it dropped:
Received Card: Reward Merits, Common, x25
Received Card: Brain Storm Ideas, Common, x20
Received Card: Enhancement Unslotter, Uncommon, x5
Received Card: Will of the Controller, Rare, x1
Received Card: Windfall, Very Rare, x1However, NO ITEMS WENT TO INVENTORY. None! Neither did the other super pack which include 3 catalysts.
What the hell?
Anyone else seen this? I am a vig and was in cap when I purchased. This should have had zero to do with why the items would not have gone to inventory...

The final slot I am going to experiment with is the Miracle +Recovery in Health. Initial testing shows me burning the Blue Endurance bar fast (no surprise, with high global Recharge), but past experience with Dominators has shown I can mostly rely on the perma-Dom refill... but this is something I have to test with each Dominator.
This a lot of hard work tidge! Looking interesting!
It is definitely possible to burn enough end where maintaining a constant assault makes it iffy to last to a dom refill. Sadly, it is on what is probably my fav dom ever, which makes highly aggressive play with her like dancing on the edge of a knife. Intense but highly rewarding.

You need a LOT of global recharge to permadom. Generally enough to perma hasten. Extreme builds can make it without hasten, but those are pretty ultra extreme.
Rather than worry about permadom, just figure out how they work in general. They aren't easy mode, but if you go 0/2,0/3 solo, or 2/1 solo, you can learn to effectively manage the mobs, controlling the situation enough to walk in and smash their face with fun like seismic smash or the goodness of psy assault which is CRAZY good on doms. Go drain psyche!
Melee is the place you operate, whether by locking down from a distance and moving in, or just living in the mix to start with using a lot of soft control.
Soft control is exceptionally useful because with the single target melee damage you can pump out (looking at you earth assault), you don't need to keep the guys occupied long to be safe.-

You get quite a lot of damage out of your secondary melee... With hotfeet, you should be up close and real personal, giving you ease of action with your melee attacks for high damage.
Slotting fire cages for damage probably isnt the best use of slots. Would put other things in there, not damage... Bonfire is tricky. If you slot sudden acceleration -kb, the proc rate on it drops a lot, but with fold space and some interesting techniques you can get by without messing with -kb modifying enhs, which means lots of damage.
As a dom, you shouldn't be afraid to be in someones face. Martial pbaoes are decent enough filler, but you have imps! Imps imps imps...

Soft control.
Fire/earth dom. Mudpots + hot feet. Seismic smash is your game winner.
This is VERY HARD on the blue bar. VERY hard. Worth every bit of it,

Dunno how I just ended up here (fluke of flukeness!)
Spousal abuse is a very serious matter, whoever may abuse (mutual domestic abuse is a thing too) whomever.
While I understand it is meant in jest here, it is a horrifyingly insensitive and cruel thing to say, especially when some of the viewers may be victims of spousal (significant other (notsosignificant other)) abuse.

Is psychic a mutation or natural?
