Force Redux

Alpha incarnate +1 level shift really helps too

Not to gain say anyone else's experience, but I don't typically find myself reseummoning pets often. Particularly once I have my build filled out

Glad my guide helped 🙂

I use scorpion shield on characters that don't build for Ranged Defense, since it helps with the three most common damage types at end game, regardless of positions. These are typically characters who expect to go into melee ((blappers, poison users, etc.)

No mention of /Nature? Great hybrid set with easy strong heals, resists, Regen, absorb, some pbaoe control, some debuff, dam/acc buffs, end recovery... Everything almost but +defense. Pair it with virtually anything. I have it with mercs and it's brilliant. Easily competes in fun and effectiveness with /Dark.

MMs are my fave. They shouldn't be dying too often, normally. I myself take them out on trials and TFs often, including ones that are usually not considered great for pet health (ex, TinPex). Knowing how to control pets, such as use of GoTo to get them out of Blue Pools of Death, for instance, is essential. Pet durability requires some slotting with pet IOs, management with control, and depends on your power picks: Bots/FF is essentially immortal, for example. Great mastermind to learn with. What powers are you playing? What content are you doing? How are your pet commands?

I'm drunk. Or something. 🫠🫠 Let me correct: I just checked my ninjas and because Shinobi-iri doesn't stealth stack with infiltration they don't have it. Just my natural archer and natural tanker have it, combined with combat jumping. Neither have the Speed pool either. It's still good, but more niche than my memory was letting on. And as Luminara mentioned, don't run it with it's poorer cousin, athletic run, they don't stack. ((But totally run it with sprint))

Good lord... I had no idea.

Love these!

My personal nightmare.

I loved infiltration on my ground pounders, especially natural or Ninjutsu characters. Combines well with athletic run, and with a Celerity unique in sprint / combat jumping you have full stealth.

Thanks I had either forgotten or didn't realize it about focus fighting. Yeah not too common but I hate when a succubus or another mob confused or fear!

You shouldn't be drawing much aggro with trick arrow, your pet should be grabbing most of the agro. Are you in defensive mode? Are you sending in your pets before you begin your personal attacks with arrows?

Don't forget that Ninjutsu grants Fear and Confuse protection as well.

High praise, thank you! 😊 I also love the chest detail, between the moon's colors and the blended black background!

Rest well, hero

Almost all my characters take weeks to years to get a 'just right' costume. I fiddle around, use tailor tokens, spend millions, to get something that sticks. That said, I have about four stock costumes I use at character creation if I'm not getting inspired when making them, just to launch the character.

👍🏻 awesome! and Rob Liefeld approved 😃

thank you! I admit I was helped by a nun costume I saw in Pocket D a while back! oh my goodness, is that an actual cowl? I'm so excited something that's not painted on the skin but actually has its own texture! thank you for pointing this out

thank you!

I must have missed it, sounds like I have an adventure out of me! thank you

in TSW, a Gaia-charged bee that flew into my mouth gave me superpowers, I certainly expected to feel powerful open world. particularly with my shotgun and hammer! 😃😃 ((just not in instances)) I should totally remake my Illuminati character in CoH!

hmmm. where are those doors located?

"looks like horse is back on the menu, boys!"

Not sure if this is 'best' but I'm happy with the way I was able to emulate a middle-eastern outfit for the Star of Morocco, my Fire/SR sentinel. Here she is in Pocket D. Had to use Rapture hair style to work out a hijab (in tandem with scarf and neck cover). Sorry not the best picture, best I could do at the moment.
