Alts With Same Powerset

[arcane]

I have powersets where I’ve got the set at 50 several times over. I know I have 5 Storms… 6 Poisons… 8 Ice Blasts I think? Etc.

When I decided to redo my Praetorian Toons, I decided I would make a Praetorian version of my main, AR/Devices Blaster.  Just created this morning.  Surprised I didn't think of this before.

Oh yeah well in a way

 

Im very theme oriented and my characters match this

 

So Ive got Panda all dark dark dark combos

 

Bale Fire alll fire fire fire combos

 

and a few others here and there matching a theme such as sonic or water or storm or ice powers

Which powersets I use are defined by concept, so yeah, I've done this. And I've run into them being more fun on one AT vs another - I don't care overmuch about numbers, but (for instance) my Staff/WP Brute gets a lot more play than the Staff/WP Scrapper, who just feels... "eh" on a roughly equal build.

 

(Of course, and not quite the same thing, I've done a "same pairing, different AT" for some... obviously an elec/elec brute is going to play much differently than an elec/elec blaster or controller. And some you can't do - there's no illusion melee or illusion armor, for instance.)

Well, if you mean same primary and secondary, no. At least not yet.

 

Wait, did you mean same primary and secondary or just same of one either primary or secondary cause that's a whole different bag of chicken.

 

Because I have five DP of various flavors not including the two previously referenced same/same that went to bit bucket.  Similarly there are several other flavors of same but different.

I'm sure I've repeated a couple of powersets that I used back on Live (including a couple of cases where I specifically tried to re-create a character I had back then). But I don't think I've doubled up on anything here on Homecoming. I'm not opposed to the idea, but right now I'm having fun trying out new ones.

I have Martial Arts and Super Reflexes on a Scrapper, Brute, Stalker, and Tanker.  I've been playing this pairing since before alignment switching was allowed, the Scrapper and the Stalker on live.  They all have similar builds when possible.

 

For the record, while tanking is a new (for me) playstyle and Bruting is....interesting, I still like the Scrapper best.

Yes I've done multiples of the same set on the same AT.  Specifically I have a bunch of Empaths mostly defenders and some corruptors.  But at least on HC the blast set paired with Empathy has not been duplicated within a single character.  Eventually I'll likely have one of every blast set paired with Empathy.  Likewise I have several Earth controllers all of whom have differing secondaries.  I've have several SR across several ATs, though the GRETA variants unlike on Live consist of just one though likely I'll do up one of each armored AT with Claws at some point.

Yes, and even back to back!

 

I made a fire/ax tank looking to try out the cyclone burn combo. He was super fun and got knee deep into incarnates but I decided the survival was overkill and wanted more damage. So I immediately started leveling an ax/fire scrapper.  Again, super fun, and I enjoyed the increased damage.
