Thank you both for the input! I will try the second build provided by Arcadio and will play around with alternates to Chilling Embrace. Greatly appreciate the assist, guys!

Hey and thanks for responding! Even when ranged I know I'm going to be encountering mobs up close from time to time, especially when soloing. I'm open to swapping those for the other two attacks, but the Arctic Air plus a confuse proc helps divert some of that up-close damage I'm wanting to avoid. As for Chilling Embrace, I wasn't married to the idea of it, but tend to lean more toggles DoTs with a few "chance for"s in the IO sets, plus I like it for the sustained -rech -speed. Again, definitely not married to it, just seemed a decent option at the time I was going through.

I have never been good at assigning slots, so I was just curious if someone might take a look at my power selections and show me how you would slot them for a decent team player who's also able to go off and do their own thing without ending up in the hospital when things get a little hairy. As a point of note, I know I'm skipping a few powers in the secondary set, but I'm wanting to keep this a ranged build, at least as much as possible. That being said, I'm willing to accept a swap for one of either Ice Sword Circle or Ice Slash if there's a good slot bonus or important "chance for" that would make sense or the difference between permadom or not (which is not my goal, just happenstance if slotting works in that favor). Greatly appreciate any and all responses! 😀 https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=794&c=365&a=730&f=HEX&dc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

So I was just thinking about a project I might play around with in my spare time and one of the ways I could make the project work would be to use the encoded URL from the download link. I'm not a software engineer so browsing the code on Github hasn't been of much help in this case, but my goal would be to convert the outputted URL back into usable strings and data for website usage. There are definitely other methods I can go, but before I put myself through that, I just thought I'd ask and see if there's a clearcut easy way of decoding the information from that URL, much like is being done in the download.php file. Perhaps one of the devs might see this and be inclined to share for those of us who want to play around with the data?

Just popping in to say that the effects from Aria of Stasis are awesome looking!

I just dinged 50 on another alt today, something I'd always wanted to play on live but never had the time to dedicate to. I trained on the way up, but didn't plan, or look at synergies, so I decided I'd ride it out until 50 and then try a new build, something I'd also never done before. Of course, it resets the build to level 1 so I can now train. Currently, you need to talk to the trainer and work your way up, dialog for dialog, unnecessary click after click to get to your full build at 50. I thought, "Oh, yeah, just /respec. Save yourself the dialogs and time; you've got your build ready from Mids anyhow, so this just makes sense." I am greeted with a "Must be level 3 or higher to use respec window" dialog. I asked in /help what was the issue. Did I need to train to level 3 using the dialogs at a trainer and then I'd be able to respec? I was told not to do this by another person who said the respec would fail. I missed his warning initially but caught it after I came to start this post. There was apparently a bug on live where respeccing the way I intended would get to the end of the respec and fail; as I am excited about getting this build in place, I opted to not go down that path and instead will use the dialogs at the trainer to train back up to 50. My suggestion essentially in turn means the bug needs to be addressed, as I suggest that when you create a new build you should be greeted with the respec interface initially so that you can optimally do what a second build does - it gives you a chance to make a new selection, IE: a respec. Happy to hear any thoughts on this!

I would recommend using the Nvidia GeForce software to fine tune your graphics settings, as the settings in game will only do as much as your graphics card will allow based on your system settings as well. After I upped to the max in COH, I adjusted a lot of the settings for it inside of the software mentioned, specifically the 3D shaders in my case.

@Zappalina, your name looks super familiar to me. Did you happen to join the SG at one point by chance or is my memory still failing me miserably?

Ahh, dang. Sorry I didn't post this sooner then. They picked me up in PI after a PUG mission and were so awesome. I miss tearing through caves with them all. 😄

Any old Crimson Sun SG members about? I want to say we were on Justice at one point, but my memory has been shot for a while now. A few names I recall from the group, in case you're them: Smoke, Ele, Chitsu, Bonita.

Nice job on the new inspiration design! Liking the use of the diamonds to indicate the tier. If you haven't done so already, I recommend you take a look at @The Philotic Knight's CoH Modder Tool, which makes it easy to package your mod and have it widely available to all who use the program. 😉

The transparency of the Homecoming team is nothing short of upstanding! Major kudos to you all!

Today I come to you with a small, but powerful new feature - ratings! All members of the site can now rate other users' listings (and guide ratings will be added in the future, should they prove of use). An average rating of 5 stars will give your listing a "featured" status, causing it to glow wherever seen, as well as being featured in a carousel on the front page (soon™). For now, it's simply a great way to have your listing(s) featured on the front page, and stand out everywhere they're displayed throughout the site. In the future, I'd love to host a contest of sorts where the highest rated listings are awarded prizes; all ratings are collected per user, so there may be participation awards for those who comment and rate listings too so there's incentive on both sides of the coin. To combat any forced wins, only registered users are able to rate listings and no user can rate a listing of their own. Ideas for future prizes include: powerleveling services, original COH memorabilia, custom made COH-themed items, in-game currency, choice sets of enhancements, and more!

Liking the replacement music! You might want to take a look at @The Philotic Knight's CoH Modder Tool, which makes it easy to package your sounds as a mod and have them widely available to all who use the program. 😉 (As a completely unrelated side note, the last time I used "A" for a drive letter was on a floppy disc. Good times.)

For this to work, you'll probably need to setup a rotating bind. Take a look at this section of The Incomplete and Unofficial Guide to /bind (Using Rotating Binds). Simply throw in the unselect, team select, and the powexec into each file you create.
