Crap. Ok thanks

So does this not work anymore or am I just dumb? I hadn't used it yet, but wanted to track my INF. I'm on an SS/Fire brute and it doesn't seem to register the character at all. Name server origin etc are all blank. Powersets are Unknown/Unknown and HP and Endurance are both 1.00/1.00 I've tried closing the client/hero stats and re-opening, tried making the HSData tab, tried deleting the two files above but nothing works.

Was out of town for a bit but I did make a few to mixed results. Water/Energy Blaster (25, current fav) Plant/Martial Dom (22, 2nd fav) Arachnos Soldier (16, Not sure yet, needs more levels) Warshade (14, Same as solider, but even less so) You might have sold me on the Fire/storm Corr. I've been trying to decide which /Storm AT to make between Corr and Controller but haven't decided yet. I can't play Sonic, the sounds are just too annoying to me lol. Funny though, the water blaster I made has been really fun. I'll probably be trying out Archery here soon, see how I like it compared to Water. I actually planned on making one AT that fulfills my original question, and TW might be what I pick for Scrapper, they do seem to have a ton of AoE and the weapons look really cool. If I end up going Fire/Storm Corr that just leaves Controller. Don't think I want to do Plant twice since I have on Dom, so unsure what to pick there that does the most damage. Anyway, thanks again for all the responses!

I think you guys have sold me on the Crabs. I'll try them out first!

I know fun is subjective, but I'm looking for something different that might not be seen in every party with the primary focus of dealing good AoE damage but also helping the party with debuffs or CC if its within their wheelhouse. Having said that - I'd like to avoid fire, as it seems to be the most common "best aoe" damage type. No Spines, or SS - I have them already. Elec/SD is out, mainly because I'll probably already make one eventually and just want to do something different for now 🙂 I've gone ahead and narrowed down a little of each AT that I assume would be good choices for AoE and would love feedback on any of them, especially if you've played more than one. Any other sets that I'm missing that might pair really well together for AoE I'd love to hear about! Blasters DP, Archery, AR and Water look interesting to me. Archery not /as/ much since its doesn't look as flashy. In terms of secondaries I dont really know much about blasters, but I'd guess Elec was a good choice for aoe shenanigans. (I know rad has some AoE, but I'm not a fan of their animations) Controllers Plant seems pretty obvious, but not sure what to pair it with Storm always sounds good thanks to FR, Darkness Control is also on my radar even though its not as AoE as plant, I've been wanting to make one anyway. Kin or Time might work as a decent secondary as well here. Defenders Kind of a pattern here, but the same secondaries of Controllers (Storm/Kin/Time?) Same primaries as Blaster (DP/AR/Water/Archery) would there be a better primary for boosting damage for me or the team? Scrapper Since Elec and Spines are out, I dont know much better AoE sets for scrappers, TW, Katana or Dual Blades maybe? Not sure how wide DBs cones are. Secondaries sounds like Bio is the largest potential for more damage. Peacebringer and Warshade I honestly dont know much about them. They seem to have a decent amount of AoE available, but I know PBs have crazy knockback. Any insight with these is welcome. Brute Pattern again, like with Scrappers Katana/TW and possible Battle Axe or War Mace too. Again, Bio probably for secondary. Stalker Not sure if its 1:1 for scrappers and brutes, but I'd guess the same sets probably apply? Ninja Blades, Dual Blades maybe StJ? Mastermind Not sure I'm ready to dive into MMs yet, Robotics seemed to be the most likely, but I'd rather do another AT I think Dominator Once again, Plant seems to be the obvious choice, with Darkness next in line. Secondaries seem like Psi or Martial is the way to go Corruptor Basically just reverse my defender choices. This might be the only one I'd do Fire Blast still, but I'm on the fence. Widow They actually seem like they'd be fun, help with the buffs, and both paths have AoE options. Not sure which one is more damage, I would guess Fortunata is more AoE, while Widow is more single target? Soldier Crab looks like it has a lot of AoE options, but the recharges are quite long. I think Widow looks more interesting than Solider but I don't know how it would be in practice. Sentinel Last but not least, no surprise here, Water Blast, Dual Pistols. Bio again I suppose for 2ndary? Overall, the most AT I'm leaning towards is the Plant Controller or Dominator, with Warshade next as I dont really know much about them, but I'd love to hear any thoughts on everything else - I'll probably make a lot of these eventually anyway lol.

After getting all 5 LotG and Mocking into consume, I've almost stopped having end issues. Is Agility still recommended? I was going to go musculature. Also curious which is better Degen or Reactive as I've seen both being used on different farming posts.

That's funny, your recommendation is exactly what I started with. Force Feedback was first, since it was so cheap, have two LOTG and working on the Uniques in health. Have about 11m last I looked. I run the dawg farm, as for some reason I don't do as well in the rainbow one. Do you weave in any of the single target attacks? My end bar is pretty bad with just FS, Burn, Fences, BL. I dont even run Tough, Weave, or CJ. I found a macro/bind thing with CityBinder that just lets me mash F1 to make reds so I have a good stack most the time. But Defenses is low so I still have to have ~3 Lucks going at all times, so I'll look into the Fire defense stuff next. As an aside, I kind of wish I did another primary as I really dislike the Rage crash, but I don't play all that much to get another 50 up just to farm when SS does just fine.

Do you happen to have a more budget friendly build for fresh 50s on the SS/Fire?

Unfortunatly I didn't know that was a thing, so I didn't archive anything before the servers went down. I was dumb and didn't even take screenshots of anything. Really kicking myself now :-(

So supposedly the old character data is still somewhere available. I know people have asked about getting their old 50s back and such but my question isn't related to levels or enhancements etc it's actually about...what characters I actually had and what their costumes looked like. Unfortunately I never took pictures of any of my characters and going through my memory I know I had at least 20, but remembering what each looked like and their powers...it's not all there still in my mind :/ Now I didn't plan on remaking all of them, but I wouldn't mind recreating some of my favorites I just dont remember their details. Long story short - is it possible to just view our old character data to see costumes and powerset choices? Or best case scenario, download the costumes? I'd even be willing to donate if this was a feature.
