you REALLY don't want to be on the revenge radar of someone with OCD,  thorough can be terrifying...

I have to agree with the majority. OCD says procs go to the right. Except for KB to KD, which go on the left. And maybe Force Feedback. But definitely not others.
And they have to be arranged by color.. you can't mix Hold and Ranged damage procs, all the reds and all the oranges have to be split.

"I have CDO. It's just like OCD, except the letters are in alphabetical order. AS THEY SHOULD BE."

 

I have the habit of slotting a set the same way in each power containing that set, a habit I started back on live, and aided by the fact that I'm able to buy entire sets of attuned IOs at once and can slot them all at the same time, instead of whatever I can get on the AH at the level it happens to come up as. So when I slot, say, Thunderstrike Acc/Dam, it goes in the same slot for each power slotting Thunderstrike -- when I pull the IO out of my tray, I use which slot lights up in the slotted power(s) to direct where to put it in the unslotted power.

I still slot them in set order, just leave gaps with non set enh to keep the order right,  I find it disturbing others don't  Where is your OCD!!!!!

Just so we're all on the same page.  Generic IOs go two accuracy, end redux, recharge, two damage (for most offensive powers).  And in that order.  We do NOT put end redux or recharge in the last slot.  Thank you.

No it goes 2 Acc, then 2 Dam, 1 End Red and finally the last spot gets the Rech. Lol your OCD is different than my OCD.

So if I only have the power 1 slotted is it in the left or right side. This is confusing me and my OCD and now I'm hungry for a Twix. Now they question is do I eat the left Twix or the right Twix first.

Since left and right are relative, this is a dumb question.

 

Obviously you start with the northeastern-most twix.

 All of you are making me wish for a temp power that reorders the slots in all of someone else’s powers. That would be the ultimate influence sink.🤣

pretty sure griefing is frowned upon, especially at such an epic level!

I just put them in whatever order they happen to end up in and don't worry about it.  On a respec build I do generally put them in the order they're sitting in on the screen just from a convenience point of view.  The order doesn't matter in the game so it really doesn't matter to me.

Lowbie powers get an End Red first.  Higher level powers get Rech first.  But the order is entirely contingent on your salvage and recipe drops.  Except for the accuracy, which you go out of the way to acquire, usually from Heraclea who memorized the recipes, and which always is first to be slotted, just as toggles get End Red first. 

 

But when you replace them with sets, the set IOs replace the generic IOs where they will do the least harm to the enhancements they replace.  So their placement is highly random.

I am pretty bad about this. In fact as soon as i get a character it starts. I know i want 1 acc 2 dam. So even if i am doing DFB and using the prestige procs from P2W i have to put a training acc in the first slot. Because 1acc then 2 damage. That is how it goes. Everybody knows that

 

there is a great villain or vigilante character that can be born from this somehow

Lowbie I usually slot

 

DAM (p2w), Acc, End, Dam, Dam, special, the special would be range, recharge, slow, immob or whatever the power takes (thats my blaster slotting, other less awesome AT's get tailored ones)

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

Spoiler

Surely as everyone with CDO knows, the singular bar is a Twik, and are there any CoH devs who peruse these pages that can say for definite what should go where (order-wise). Or is there no order, ie the whole thing gets done in one fell swoop when the power is clicked.

er, you do realise actual game effect has zero to do with correct enh slotting right?

[Zep]

I wonder at the hew and cry should some ebil-hacker get into the character files and randomize the order of everyone's IOs?

 

Wouldnt affect game play at all - well directly, certainly a lot of characters would be marching to TV to get a respec. 🙂

 

I have my own OCDisms. Less so slotting IOs -- for SO/Generic IO I tend to go Acc/Dam/recharge etc in a specific order that is easier for me to read quickly for IO sets I havnt caught myself worrying about it. I'll have to look - it is kinda like trying to see the color of my own eye without a mirror.. Oh fine now I have to go look. Thanks ppl. 🙂

 

Slotting abilities on my action bars, well, that's another story....

It depends. Is the Twix right-side up, or up-side down?

Hello, My name is Shred Monkey, and I've used unslotters before to slot my enhancements into the proper sequential order. 

 

Procs go to the right and only to the right.  I really wish I hadn't opened this thread and learned there are people out there who do otherwise.

What if you've frankenslotted?  Do all the procs still go all the way to the right, or just to the right of the nearest related IO?

If there's multiple procs and 1 of them also has set-members slotted, then I would slot the set-proc ahead of the others to keep the set together with the other procs following them to the right.

 

If I had pairs both with procs, that would be difficult to resolve.  I'd probably change my slotting so that there's a HamiO or something else that didn't create this issue.  Luckily this has never came up in reality.
