Ok here i am again with another build review i would love to see any corrections to it by keeping all powers if possible mainly because i would love to try out those new ice powers the icicle has such as the spear :smiley:

I also want to thank you Flowcyto for helping me build those characters i really appreciate it and it helps me get used to it :smile:
So here we go Ranged or hybrid

    Looks pretty good for Ice dps. Some tweaks to it:

    PowerHouse (Link to this build)

    Archetype: Freeform

    Super Stats:
    Level 6: Ego (Primary)
    Level 10: Endurance (Secondary)
    Level 15: Constitution (Secondary)

    Talents:
    Level 1: The Void
    Level 6: Ascetic
    Level 9: Boundless Reserves
    Level 12: Daredevil
    Level 15: Quick Recovery
    Level 18: Wordly
    Level 21: Amazing Stamina

    Powers:
    Level 1: Ice Shards
    Level 1: Ice Blast (Hard Frost, Frost Bite)
    Level 6: Frost Breath (Rank 2, Frost Bite)
    Level 8: Ice Form (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 11: Icy Embrace
    Level 14: Concentration
    Level 17: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 20: Masterful Dodge
    Level 23: Icicle Spear (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 26: Avalanche (Rank 2, Serrated Shards)
    Level 29: Ego Surge (Rank 2, Nimble Mind)
    Level 32: Resurgence (Rank 2)
    Level 35: Rebirth
    Level 38: Ice Shield (Rank 2)

    Travel Powers:
    Level 6: Athletics (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 35: Superjump

    Specializations:
    Ego: Force of Will (2/2)
    Ego: Insight (3/3)
    Ego: Follow Through (3/3)
    Ego: Sixth Sense (2/3)
    Guardian: Fortified Gear (3/3)
    Guardian: Make It Count (3/3)
    Guardian: Ruthless (2/2)
    Guardian: Find the Mark (2/3)
    Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
    Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
    Vindicator: Focused Strikes (3/3)
    Vindicator: Mass Destruction (2/3)
    Mastery: Ego Mastery (1/1)

    Ice Burst doesn't really add much, imo, and it scatters enemies, so I opted to give ya a better block instead. An alternative for an interrupt is to take Ice Cage w/ its special adv. Last 2 adv points can go wherever.

    Against bosses, tap Frostbreath 3x to put up 3x chill, tap Ice Blast to put up Hard Frost, then use Ice Spear. Ice Blast taps can be use to refresh both Hard Frost and 3x Chill (via its Hard Frost and Frostbite advs).

    Since ya want End SS and probably Con SS, I took Ego PSS since it still scales w/ Conc, gives some cost discount via Insight, and gives ya extra crit w/o needing Dex SS'd via 6th Sense.
    Its typically better to pair Warden or Guardian w/ Vindicator than w/ each other, due to the way The Best Defense interacts w/ Aggressive Stance, the way Offense diminishes as a stat, and how Vind offers better crit-based dps options.

    - Be safe and have fun, champs - for science!
