then i am with everyone else.... it is advertised as golden....but i think it's maybe a dufferent mineral....

again, what if the 10% drop is per monster, not per person attacking? then you gotta split that 10% by everyone attacking...

It is supposed to be a ranged power that does a Confuse and applies a tohit debuff. Where is all this other stuff even coming from???

Is it possible it IS 10%. Then that is randomly given to someone whi has qualified as part of the kill group?

Here is mine... Blaster - Ice Blast - Temporal Manipulation 50 ver 2.0.mxd

So i run both a fire fire and a dark dark. Your Blast set, Fire, thrives on two strategies. 1) stealth in and PBAoE nuke then blast madly at anything left standing 2) Drop RoF, and other Aoe/ST from a safe distance. You have to know when to do this. Eating a purple insp going in helps about as much as converting a whole build to Sentinel strategy. You build for range softcap but you want a blapper and have hard hitting loooooong animation attacks at melee range??? You can save a LOT of resources and develop other parts of your byuild by taking A1) Dark Pit Toggle ranged AoE 20' rad Mag 2 Stun and 2) Oppressive Gloom PBAoe 12' radius Mag 2 stun. Wait, Mag 2, + Mag 2 = Mag 4 stunning bosses, Lts and minions? All Around You.... So.... Why you need defense. You in Blapper Mode. They are all standing there drooling. Now build up other parts of your strategy and walk back the investment in an ill-conceived hope of safety.

wait, what?

It is much more tailored. A build in CoH is very detailed What you are asking is like asking a car company, sight unseen, to build you a complete new car based on 5-6 words. Fast, comfortable, small, bright colored, convertible and expect the car to be something you like when they deliver it. The traditional way is to decide the sets you want to play. If you know the sets, easier. But you may need to research the sets and figure that out. Then you come to the boards to find if someone has done similar work. I can guarantee you someone has. Just gotta find it. Then you either run that, or spend some time in MiDs tailoring those ideas to your concept.

That how you max exp? Huh. If you are addicted to soloing then I do hope someone answers this for you. I do not know When I want to fast level I join TFs in my level range. And have a double exp booster running. I get caught up in the madness. By the end of the TF I have a good amount of exp. Repeat.

I hope you mean this and not karma chameleon https://youtu.be/3Ipns0jneLY?si=xxudcgGVCi7KLLHl

You saw in my original post i have sky as the choice. My whole base, you look up, you see forever. You fly up… bonk.

how do you build up. i have the roof set to sky.... but we all know that is fiction. 15 feet up and that is all i can go. how do i really open it up?

So, as we know from CoH mechanics, Def>Res>Heal. But, and Dark Armor uses this, Stealth>Defense. Not being seen is not being swung at. Let the wannabes stand up and scream they are vampires. Let Heroes kill them and get a vamp slayer badge. I am managing two blood banks remotely. Nutrition and cash baby!

since it did not total the DoT I misread it, thanks

uber show dark nuke and fire nuke from Blaster doing nesar same damage pve i do not understand

Sore spot here. So council va...things, are NOT vampires. They are not even undead. They are the result of a super soldier program where they chuck this guy in a capsule for a year or two and screw them so far up they are down. Yes, you should kill them all. Unfortunately the council will just make more. But their electricity bill will be astronomical. Maybe we can blow up the Faultline Dam and interrupt their power! Oh, there is an idea.

Moonfire. They all count. Run a Moonfire

I figured. But if they do not want suggestions.... People have learned not to say around me, "Does anyone have anything to add?"

adding anything, with the clever folks that play, is power creep. I like the idea, but I love more power. The "soft" version being to "bake in" the equivalent of a multi enhancer that enhances all attributes the power does... acc, dam, range, whatever. Then not have any enhancer slots. Just know it works okay, and you have 1 more powah.

One if the only Scrappers i have 50d was sn elec elec on live. Mad fun. Enjoy. And yes, time to incarnate as everyone is saying. Have a great adventure

You lost me. Somewhere on the slide from im to oo I went down a side track. You see, when I play ANY game, tabletop AD&D 2nd edition where I started, Gamma World, Space Opera (the game…) or the genre, Rolemaster, or a hundred others…. I want to create a character. Sure, I’m a crap actor. But I enjoy the experience. MMORPGs are less immersive in that way, but more immersive visually. Snarky started out on Live as a SS/Willpower Brute using mostly SOs. He was a Villain in bright spandex with a helmet and a few small pieces of football looking gear brightly colored and slapped on. He was a small time criminal looking to make it big. I ran that character for the better part of two years. Sure, I alted. But I could not quit him. Then…. Something bad happened. My group was already playing a lot of White Wolf and I made many vampires, becoming more and more obsessed with trying to create the classic Nosferatu. Which was a joy for me and a pain for my group. Then I changed zip codes by a lot. After a while I discovered “we’re back baby!” And proceeded to make a SS/Invul Brute I ran for 6 months. But… the Darkness called. Dark Invul Brutes, Tanks, and finally Dark Dark. Which took a while for me to get, because Dark Armor is way more subtle than most sets. Then I discovered Cosmic Council and went on a binge of creating things that might be useful in their never ending quest for badges. That ended. But left me with a deeper understanding of CoH mechanics. And an Army of Darkness (squishies of all varieties) was created. And still I learned. I been exploring a lot more lately. I have to say this Fire Fire Blaster I am currently on, now that I know how to read tactics and mechanics, is just insanely powerful. Some type of Demon. A Snarky one lol. So, am I immersive or UI oriented? Is the canvas or the brush more important to the artist? Neither. You can grab some charcoal and paper and get an idea down. Of course it is nice to stab bright (or dark) colored paint until it vaguely resembles what is in your head. But it is what is in your head, and your ability to realize the concept within the constraints of your skill and the technology you have. That is what is important. I find the UI annoying, and i use the regular power button with an Auction Macro on most toons and a up to 10 macros on my Ice Blast toons for AoE placement. I just got done hunting Cim Surgeons, my usual task, by looking at the screen and mousing on them. No macro. Or just AoE the group they are in. Fire be like that. I do not use macros for hunts. I never learned how and I do not enjoy setting them up. I make a toon and want to run the powers. Not much is needed besides a mouse. Do I RP? I have never found an online group that would have me or that I want to join. Have not searched. But…. I am a bit Snarky in every message I post on LFG, Global, etc. Gotta keep the seasoning going!

I tend to be fascinated by the undead. which are in the same city as demons but not the same neighborhood. I run a lot of vampires, liches, zombie derivatives etc. My current project is a Fire Fire Blaster and I started the look out as a possessed set of armor and ended with a demon in armor. It just fits. The only other concept I have for this is a pathological Longbow type operative going vigilante on everyone. burn the crime out of the city!
