1. Goals= Team player: master of dropping DA' BOMB on mobs, True Shooter style Blaster (like the name implies} I want to Blast Stuff! Soloing AV's is NOT my goal but being able to maybe die once or twice before melting them solo would be ok. Less Sheilds because friends should be sharing theirs and MORE POWER (Tim the Tool Man Taylor's grunt). 2. Identifying synergies= I really like the Oil Slick and fire rain combo along with the Net arrow and ice arrows (for trapping in said fire rings); bone fire is a must (with knockdown enhancement) to also help (control mobs) {I know I'm not a controller, but I know I'm a glass cannon safety from a distance is important}. Fb BB and Fire Ball are my main attacks, and I wouldn't trade any of them for anything. Infernos damage is amazing, but it puts me directly into combat something a true ranged induvial should avoid. As for Leadership and the other power pools I don't really know what synergizes with MY build, so I was reading what they said they did and tried to pick the best. I figured better aim and defense were a must, so I took Leadership, and my toon has wings ofc I'm taking fly/hover. 3. Identifying gaps= Endo was my major gap at first but after spending a little influ I made it so that wasn't a problem. But since then, I've only be criticized about my build, and I never really saw anything wrong w/ it. Even now I'm wandering does making up for Defense take away from that issue of Endo I already solved. 4 Mids plan= Oh boy where to begin.......so if you are struggling to get everything mids is a BAD SUGGESTION. It's like only knowing English, but reading building instructions written in Chinese and spoken in French. I can slot and do everything in there but it doesn't really show me anything if I don't have 100 Kazillion Infu. I know what a fully loaded Toon CAN be but I'm a broke hoe with not a lot of extra spending cash. Below is as far as I made it before looking up prices and just about crying.

@Nemu You were very knowledgeable and would very much appreciate so further details.

Back when CoH was live I had a mutation/blaster villain that had excellent AoE and was just superb at hover shooting. I'm trying the same thing now but I'm noticing all blasters are pretty much fie or ice. Am I wasting my time? Should I start over and try one of the "Meta's"? Is anyone running this build yet?
