Thanks a lot to everyone who took the time to give me advice! I’ve decided to go with Bots/Marine, and I’m really looking forward to diving back into the game again. One last question: where do you set the difficulty for missions again?

I’ve decided to go with Bots as my primary. Wouldn’t Time be a better fit as a secondary than Marine in that case?

Thanks for the insights! Which of the three primaries actually puts out the highest damage overall?

And among Mercs / Bots / Thugs, which one is generally the most (or least) welcome in endgame groups nowadays? I remember Bots used to be unpopular because of their knockback and large size – is that still the case?

Why exactly does Marine work so well for melee henchmen compared to ranged ones? Which specific buffs or mechanics make a bigger difference for Mercs/Thugs than for Bots? And if I were to go with Robots/Mercs instead, which secondary powersets would generally pair best with a ranged primary?

Hello, After a long break, I’d like to get back into CoH, and for nostalgia’s sake I’d like to roll a Mastermind. For the secondary I want to go with Marine. For the primary, I can’t decide between Mercs / Bots / Thugs. Which one is the most popular / least popular in endgame and in teams, and why? Thanks for your help :D.
