A Pretty Damned Spectacular Guide on Leveling with IOs and IO Sets

I also slot attuned enhancements as early as I can in my builds, except I tend not to unslot or use respecs, with the occasional exception of HOs and purples that I may want to slot at 50.  I HATE respeccing . . . a lot.  If I can avoid it, I will.  Even if I made a mistake, unless it is a doozy I may just live with it and work around it.

 

I used to grab the P2W enhancements and would slot them all in an early AoE, usually a cone.  It's a lot of fun to do all that exotic and varied damage in DFB.  However, these days I tend to ignore them.  I almost always pick up a 2XP at level one and find that level twenty-one comes pretty damn quick.  It's also frustrating to me that they can't be sold anywhere so you have to trash them.

 

While starting with SOs early makes a lot of sense from an enhancement standpoint, I just use whatever drops and I can use until I fill the slot with it's soon-to-be-permanent attuned IO.

 

One addition I would make to your guide is the use of a personal base for storage of IOs, catalysts, and other goodies.  I have a level 50 that buys and crafts level 10 PVP recipes to then craft, convert, and store in my base as Panacea, Gladiator's Armor, Shield Wall, and the PvP damage procs.  I also store catalysts in the base so that when I hit 50 I can grab the 12 - 30 catalysts to turn whatever ATOs and WinterOs I have into a superior version.

 

For those that don't know: at level 50 you start getting catalysts as a drop.  It has a pretty high drop rate, but an 18 hour lock out.  So you are likely to earn one every time you play your 50s but only one per day.  So I periodically have my 50s drop off their catalyst(s) for use by my next project.
