I am one of the few who play with multiple builds and build swap macros and I wish it didn't pop a CD on things like TT, ATT and the like but I can live with it. I have 4 characters that I use with 3 builds a piece, and I haven't no objections to allowing the max number of builds to expand, however I see it as a low priority suggestion. +1.

I keep one set of each PvP IO as attuned versions that I reuse for toons as they level. Once that toon gets to 50, I unslot them, stick them back in the base and reslot lvl 50+5 versions of the same PvP IO back in place to get the maximum value. Since the non-attuned PvP IOs exemp down, the sets of stunned ones I have only serve my low level toons.

Step one is roll a new character. Step two is get to the appropriate minimum level or higher for them. Step three is talk to the contact and accept the arc. Step four is run the missions it gives you Step five is roll a new character and don't again.

Every time I've played a Hardcore game when the character dies. It's dead. That said I've been reading comics for going on 40 years now, and I've seen more than my share of characters die and get resurrected via all sorts of means such as multi versal events, time travel, magic, healing tears, getting dragged back out of hell, etc. Due to that playing an Ironman run in a superhero game doesn't make much sense as characters tend not to stay dead. I mean look at the Death and Return of Superman from 1993 for example.

This is what I was thinking. I mean most teams of veteran players would of realized that someone hospitalized and would checkfire DPS until you got back in.

In that case @Snarky is good to go for a couple of centuries as he gives out quite a few blood borne pathogens.

I'm guilty of having owned this album back in 98. My old garage band at the time learned a few songs off that album: The Kids Aren't Alright, Why Don't You Get A Job, and Pretty Fly For A White Guy. That was back when I was lvl 14.

Hello Invincibility. It does the same thing. That's fine, but as @twozerofoxtrot is getting at, there's not much that's going to kill you with the buffs. Especially if you're on a team and running barrier cycles. Solo the maybe the radial piece is better if you're soloing ITF's with lots of stacking defense debuffs, but you'll be in good shape anyways with the high resistances. Adding damage will help you kill mobs especially solo quicker. https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Purple_Patch If you're using it as a mule oh well, but its pretty unreliable as you know. Its hard to suggest anything without knowing what powers you have.

70 random IO's have been gifted to strangers in Atlas, Mercy, Peregrine Island, Grandville, and Pocket D on Everlasting. Now I have room I can start crafting more.

I kinda wish it would allow us to target teammates as well. Figure it could help out an ally being overwhelmed by white capping to them easy and knock anything down around it or just a lazy means of getting closer to them for whatever reason.

Like Pete Rose, I've only ever bet on myself.

Now that I have 3,000 posts, I'm basically guaranteed to get into the Homecoming Hall of Fame when I retire. To celebrate, I'm going to randomly give away a bunch of IOs tonight on Everlasting. So make sure you don't have your enhancements full tonight because you never know if you'll end up with a Winter IO, Tempest, a Steadfast, a Ghost Widow's Embrace, an ATO, or something else. Time frame will be approximately 10pm EST tonight, but the zone shall be random, and there will be no in-game advertisement, just me sitting IOs in random people's pockets.

That's next level there. I didn't even think to try and put shifting tides on barrier reef. I've been putting it only on my grave knights.

Minnesota.... Here's the website: https://www.spam.com/museum

As someone who's been to the Spam Museum in Austin, MN, the spam posts do Spam a great injustice. Luckily our Hawaiian friends are great at cooking up spam.

I typically don't publicly release builds, but I'm available to help give you tips. I can go over building characters in mids via dm or discord or such with you if you need. There's a plenty of different ways to build the sets, but having played quite a lot of necro, I like to build it to support it in melee. That said marine has a lot of aoes, and a self teleport that brings you into your target. The only power that works better at range is the cone heal. If you're operating in melee you'll want some kb protection so you don't get knocked all around. Otherwise I really like @Crysis's idea for foldspace quite a bit as it brings more fuel into the fire so I may actually respec to swap travel powers and then sneak foldspace in. I'll probably play around a bit more before I commit to putting in foldspace though.

Glad is worked although its not a perfect fix.

I haven't checked but does /noparticle 1 help? (/no particle 0 to turn them back on).

^ This right here. To the OP, If the proposed suggestion were implemented, characters would be weaker overall until they got to the point that Generic IO's scaled high enough to surpass them, The overall suggestion doesn't really add anything to the game. Also SO's are already dirt cheap considering that you can convert a few reward merits into converters and sell them on AH. Even using the Double XP, its pretty easy to outfit a toon with SO's using no outside influence that isn't generated from the character. It just takes a little work, but the notion of work seems counter to your interests.

A couple months late, but this is pretty interesting stuff. Numbers are fun to munch.

I slotted Toroidal with Steadfast and Gladiator + defense procs, and 4 unbreakable's as I built mine with soft capped melee defense, high res, and HP cap. I haven't had a need for a PT or PS proc there. I do have a PS proc in Stamina which I stuck in there out of habit, but I'm not even sure that is necessary. As far as healing, I have life drain slotted for heal, as a means to top me off if I need.

So the benefit of having a minor Covid infection the last few days? My necro/marine is now 50 and fully IO'd. I deviated from my plan a bit, and ended up with all the necro and marine powers. The character is pretty damn resilient with pets having ~90 resistances to some common damage types, and me having capped res, HP, and 45% melee. I took provoke as well. I've been popping soul extraction then shoal rush/white capping into mobs, and letting the pets do their thing while I provoke mobs into tide pools. I've been keeping shifting on one of my grave knights and that works great. I did a couple pug TFs yesterday and a couple people told me they were going to roll a necro/marine after the TF. Otherwise I've largely been playing +2x8 on missions so far, and probably can go to +4, but I'm going to craft my Alpha today, likely muscular radial, and then dial it up. Otherwise work on the accolades. The two sets definitely have some good synergy together.

I'll echo the sentiment of if you're running the team you set the rules. I've had people go and get a new costume before to fit a theme for a team that ended up becoming a super team over a few sessions before.

However.....Dark Empowerment should probably get the ability to slot accurate healing IO's/sets as the healing power that Grave Knights and Liches get is Siphon Life.

I'd recommend Bio. Its really fun. Willpower is alright too, but I gravitate towards builds with more complexity.
