Abbreviations in posted builds

[Unmada]

Hello everyone! I’m very new to building out characters and have a question. I’m trying to find builds that I like and I keep encountering posted builds with abbreviations like “Thn” “RctRtc” and “SprBlsWrt”. I don’t know what these mean, and searching in the AH doesn’t always help. Is there a key somewhere for all these abbreviations?

Mostly, the abbreviations drop the vowels from the enhancement set name (mostly but not consistently). Here is list of the available enhancement sets by power category.

@Nyghtmaire gave you the best resource, but from memory the ones you posted are:

 

Thn = Thinner, or the Stephen King curse enhancement

RctRtc = Reticulated Rectum, or the gravity control for intestinal manipulation enhancement

SprBlsWrt = Superior Blistering Warts, or the poison control enhancement for skin damage

If you can find builds with data chunk or download links in them, load them up in Mid's and you can see  the full names.  You'll become familiar with them eventually.

 

Another thing you can do though is browse City of Data for the power you're looking at.  At the top right of the page is the list of icons representing what enhancements are accepted in that power.

 

 

You can click on any of the set icons and see the available sets listed, e.g.

 

 

This might help you match up the abbreviations of the sets you're looking at in a given power if it didn't include a link to the build or a data chunk for import into Mid's.

No one actually writes like that. What you have found are people posting their builds via the program Mids: https://midsreborn.com/
