    Currently no. My Water/temp is the next up for a end game build, but I don't know when that will be. I tend to do a search for one and go from there. I have yet to really do one from the ground up, but I keep learning and taking notes as I go, so I think I might be able to make a decent one if I tried. End isn't much of an issue so it will mostly be getting capped ranged def and going from there. 

    I like this approach. When I first started homecoming Sentinel looked so great because of the sustain. But in practice, Blaster sustain is beautiful because you can kill stuff so quick!

     

    The Energy/Dev blaster I made on beta is great fun. Go in to middle of pack, hit nuke, throw down bonfire and blow whatever is left standing up while hanging out in bonfire protection zone. Blaster is looking super promising and changing the way I play currently in contrast to my oldschool mentality.

    It's great advice. I've used it for various potential combos.

     

    And don't forget you can build the char in Mids then export a popmenu to beta which gives you all the IOs in the build (in order). You still have to level etc but it makes slotting up your beta char a breeze.

     

    Import / Export > Export build to beta server is the option in Mids

    Mind Blown....

     

    I logged in to Beta after work, Made a Energy Blast/Devices...picked what i thought was good, then did the Auto enhancement. I read the forums and put in some KB to KD and wow, so good even with the random slotting ( keep in mind my experiment was with PI street sweeping)

     

    I saw the import feature and wow...so many opportunities now....I see how people get so in to this, what a huge benefit.

     

    I appreciate all of your input on this post...now someone just send me a pm with every good build and that would be great..... =))

     

    cheers to all!

    Hey my title rhymed! That is neat.

     

    A quick history:

    I played CoH back in the day but never to high end, never played with IO sets etc.

    I have a farmer on Homecoming but he is just 50 and chillen with the regular IO's meaning I have about 150mil to play with.

    I have yet to figure out what character to really sink my cash into. (probably the brute, but man is farming boring)

    On live I played controllers and homecoming I have quite a few but I am looking for some pew! Some defenders, some corruptors, but I always lean back to controller for support. I have heard controllers are not as cool these days due to AT power at high end.

    I prefer to team, and I often start my own. I may solo some in the future.

     

    I figure it is time for some damage. I will not plvl the character so honestly leveling matters just as much to me as end game. From browsing the powers, Ice/Ice and Water/Ice look to give some good damage and control with good mitigation, but what about devices? I like the looks of devices for the targeting drone and field opp. I am also looking to probably play this first blaster at range.

     

    (Just after posting this I started looking at Temporal Manipulation...the target AOEs look to synergize well with the Ice range AOEs....) ugg

     

    Any advice you can all give on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
