I have a FM/Inv Brute on blue side that I got to 38 last night, when it occurred to me, I don't know what epic pool power set to get. I would love another AoE, as frankly FSC just isn't enough, plus melt armor would help with AV's. I plan on going Pyronic, that would then give me three AoE's. The only reason I'm thinking Energy Mastery is for the extra end management. I'm 38 and still running low and dropping my toggles at times. I believe the accolades will help, but I just don't remember since the shutdown of the original game. With energy though, I could afford to run maneuvers, which would put me at the incarnate soft cap for s/l damager and 90% res to s/l. Advice is helpful.

I can second this. I had a claws/sr that I used to hunt AVs with.

Ah, did not know that, thank you.

NegaDuck!!

I guess I missed the bus on attuned enhancements. Anyone want to offer a quick tutorial? Sorry, I'm out of town and only have my phone. Thanks for the replies.

I've gotten a few alts up to the low 20's and have them slotted with 25 IO's. My question is, how soon should I start slotting sets? Kinetic Impacts and such. Yes, I know this question has probably been asked numerous times. Thanks for answering once again, lol.

I laughed way to hard at that.

The wayback machine is your friend! http://web.archive.org/web/20120904075420/http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=113937 I believe there are multiple guides to ss/wp in that post. Nothing has been changed, to my knowledge, with either of those two power sets.

I seem to remember the softcap for regular gameplay wasn't very effective doing Incarnate stuff. Am I remembering right? Or was it all a terrible nightmare. If I am right, what was the isoftcap?

You're making my altitis worse! I think I have to roll one now, damn it!

Normally you'll get a better response by posting your own build and asking for critiques. I would offer to help, but I honestly don't know much about /nin other than it's def with a self heal.

Just to update; My wife went by herself to get the computer. While she did not get an all in one, shed did get one with on onboard graphics card. She was mad when I sent her back to upgrade the graphics card. Apparently the dude at geeksquad told her she'd have to upgrade the powersupply as well, lol.

We're going computer shopping today, I'll post specs of the different machines, unless I can convince my wife to let me get one with a decent graphics card. Either way I;ll let you guys know. Thx for the input.

Thanks guys. I suspected as much, just wanted to check, as I have not kept up with many of the advances in technology. Hell, I want Windows Vista back. Or was it Xp? Aw well. Thanks again.

I thought so, but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Btw, I remember you from the old forums. Welcome home.

I second what what was said above regarding DM. It has a high damage st attack that also heals for a decent amount. Let's face it, the rng is going to cause you to get hit at some point, and it's going to hurt. I solo'ed AV's with both my Dm/sr and my claws/sr, the Dm/sr was more survivable.

I've been thinking about starting one myself. Not sure if I want him as a brute or a scrapper though though. I'll look at this later on tonight tonight.

I'm looking to get a new PC in celebration of the only MMO I have ever enjoyed being back. I don't play any other games, and have been playing on my wifes' 7 year old laptop. Myself, I prefer desktops, just more comfortable to me. So my question is, do you think an budget all-in-one could handle it, or should I stick with a separate tower and monitor? Any advice appreciated.

I'll throw another vote for willpower. I had a DM/WP brute that was a monster redside. One of wp's only shortcomings is that it has no self heals. DM covers that hole with a fast recharging power that does good damage as well. Kept me alive against plenty of AV's

Just downloaded Tequila and rolled a toon today. Was happy to see the new powersets that we have available to us here. I decided to go with a concept I always wanted to play. One of my favorite X-Men was always Havok, so I decided to roll up a rad/rad. So far, he's only lvl 12, but I'm having a ton of fun with him already. I plan on using him mostly for soloing and TF's/Trials. I'm also hoping to get him to where I can perform "Stupid Scrapper Tricks" with him. You know, solo AV's, slaughter room full of mobs after team wipes. Stuff like that. My question is, Does anyone have any experience with either set in the later game?
