Grouchybeast Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I've been away from HC for a while, but the license news brought me back. My favourite power combo in the game so far is a Dual Pistols/Martial Combat blaster. I love the BAM and the KAPOW, the stylish animations, and having a lot of ranged attacks but being able to TP into melee and kick some ass. I have a name for a new character (Minx Max) but no idea what AT and power sets I want to try next. So, what should I go for? In the past I've mostly played Blasters, Corrs and Defenders, but I'm open to trying anything. 1 Reunion player, ex-Defiant. AE SFMA: Zombie Ninja Pirates! (#18051) Regeneratio delenda est!
Techwright Posted January 13 Posted January 13 How long have you been away? Some of the powerset proliferation has been going on, so there may be choices worth trying that arrived after you left, such as Storm Blast that premiered in April 2023 with Issue 27, page 6. It's a primary for blasters, corruptors, and sentinels, and a secondary for defenders.
Luminara Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I suggest that you go, hunt, kill Skuls. 2 Get busy living... or get busy dying. That's goddamn right.
Scarlet Shocker Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Minx Max sounds like a large cat, feline and feral so maybe a claws/SR brute or something - agile and mobile, perhaps with Combat TP to launch into mobs almost an assassin type in and out but tough enough to stand toe to toe 1 There's a fine line between a numerator and a denominator but only a fraction of people understand that.
Snarky Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Have you tried AR since the re…vamp!!! Sexy sexy sexy. What it always should have been. The equivalent for AR of fixing Sentinels…..
Oubliette_Red Posted January 13 Posted January 13 No suggestions, just stopping by to say welcome back @Grouchybeast! :) 2 Dislike certain sounds? Silence/Modify specific sounds. Looking for modified whole powerset sfx? Check out Michiyo's modder or Solerverse's thread. Got a punny character? You should share it.

I hadn't thought about respeccing her into Combat Teleport, though. Another project! 1 Reunion player, ex-Defiant. AE SFMA: Zombie Ninja Pirates! (#18051) Regeneratio delenda est!

Go0gleplex Posted January 14 Posted January 14 I've been having some fun with an Ice/Time Blaster and Beam/EA Sentinel lately. Finding both highly effective.

Blaster of course! I am sure it is nice on Corr and whoever else has access. But the changes across the board just really dial in the pain dealer. Big tweaks on a few powers with the T9 full auto becoming a fat cone instead of a narrow tube. AR is a serious set now.
Lusiphur Malache Posted January 16 Posted January 16 You've already made a blapper, next you should try an offender. Offenders never take Empathy or Pain Domination, slot for damage or debuffs mostly, and can only rez one teammate per fight (not even that many if you are time/*).

My first offender (and first 50 on live) was Empathy/energy... Part of Repeat Offenders "Green Machine" super group. Also, dark can rez more than 1 at a time. What this team needs is more Defenders
