Black December's Ice Assassin Guide (ICE/NRG)

[BlackDecember]

My ICE/NRG Blaster guide from back in the day. BIG thanks to zart for digging it up.

The enhancement slotting advice is no longer applicable but the rest of the guide holds up pretty well, I think.

Giving it a try - it's also important to note that Hurdle, Health and Stamina are now built in, so that's 3 additional powers to take. Once I've played with it a little bit more, I'll try posting an update to it.

Thanks. I believe I wrote that guide during CoH's first year so a few other things beyond enhancement slotting could be out of date.

Hey BD! I built an Ice/Eng blaster based on your guide back in the day and he rocked! Great to see you back!

Apparently Freeze Ray does reasonable damage now? I'm curious how much that changes Ice/. We also lost the Mag 4 sun on Total Focus. RIP old friend.

Slotting-aside the biggest change is you should now take Energize (no longer a mere 'conserve power') at 16. Since your secondary starter's a melee it's still best - as you'd originally stated - to take both level 1 primaries for this character.
