  • Sadly, lots of energy issues there. I had to do some quick thinking, so put in the Ball Lightning in place of the Lunge. Not my best choice, but the only thing I could see having unless I dropped something more essential. Storm Summoner's Magnetic works beautifully, BTW. I was gathering up enemies for another DPS to Plasma…
  • Thanks, flowcyto! Definitely a lot here I gotta think on just from playtesting it. AoE damage is insane with the elec side. Beatdown was more filler. I do have energy issues from testing, so considering going with the old Ionic Reverb and tossing in a Lunge where Beatdown or Impact Force was. Investigating which would run…
  • Issue's fixed. Apparently was Steam trying to do some serious updates and failing at other games.
  • My apologies that this took a bit. RL work and issues going on. Ok, I've played with both. And wow do they both have some interesting style to them. I don't think I like the HW powers for this character, however. Nothing against it, just doesn't seem to fit overall. Others will probably love it for their techie character!…
  • Thanks, you two! I'll try them out when I get a chance and see what happens. @jaazaniah1 Love the idea there of using costumes/auras/transformations to make it work. I'm open to suggestions on what to look for in that regards. Someone did mention a digital aura pack, but none of those seemed to appeal to me.
  • Someone pointed out Bad Sector was pretty cyber themed. Looking at the powers, that one and Cybernetic Tether might be a start. I would like to try a dual-passive in this case.
  • So far, yes. I'm considering that suggestion on Energy Wave. If I didn't like the sheer "boom" effect on FC, I would seriously drop it for CB as R2, PB, and Challenge. Otherwise so far it's going as intended with it. Hard hitting ranged tank with survival options and plenty of threat. Only thing getting me so far is…
  • I am. So, final build from my end. I'll just say you were right about the Sentinel bit. Went back and used the "Keep It Simple Stupid" method. Now I'm just trying to balance out the Con/End buffering. (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Tank) v3.45:38 Super Stats Level 6: Strength (Primary) Level 10: Endurance (Secondary) Level…
  • @"rhubarbrevenger#6300" I think more information may be needed here. What are you hoping to do with the TK powers? It looks like you're aiming at some sort of TK swordsman build without going full TK blades.
  • So, returning after IRL ate me for a while. That idea of Str/Con/End is definitely looking a lot better and I'm loving the hell out of it. I'm not 40 yet, but so far I'm envisioning this and hoping it will work out as a final build on my end. If Sentinel doesn't work out, will probably go back to Vindicator or Avenger.…
  • Also, that's an interesting bit, flowcyto. I'm probably going to end up trying it out and sticking Crushing Ruin on just to pull out a big freaking sword or the like.
  • Might be too much going on. Against something like a Cosmic, probably going to be tap-spamming Chest Beam or FC.
  • That's actually pretty good! Thank you! I even see where I can shift things around a bit to get Defiance if I wanted to. One of those theoretical builds in your notes intrigues me. Str PSS on what's looking like a ranged Tank? Love to hear how that would work, and I got no problem tagging in some stuff there to simulate…
  • @flowcyto Wow. Thanks! Looks good. Going to give it a try. Was hoping to get a little melee in with NW in the original, but that's definitely a lot better for ranged DPS.
  • flowcyto will probably pop up on it, but seriously don't do WotW with as many ranged powers as you have. Night Avenger is better in this case. I think he'll be better to point out flaws/ideas on this build. It's a tough one wanting to do both melee and ranged.
  • @cheelangho Nice one! Hm. As ideas depending upon how closely you want to emulate G3, you might try the different Munitions than sticking straight up to pistols to emulate the arsenal. It's fine to use in up close use. Aesthetics get tricky, however, as you would have to pick between the knife or the baton for what your…
  • Hi! I feel the pain of wanting to do a homage. To help out, recently with the Sentai Lockbox I started a thread that would be right up your alley with lots of builds on there. https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/championsonline#/discussion/1217502/weirdness-build-request-super-sentai Most are DPS with a Tank or two in…
  • Hi. So, Chainsaw Gauntlet is mainly in the way of Slashing. I would recommend looking at Beastial or Single Blade as a basis there. I'm actually interested in seeing where this goes myself. It's an underused power that is fun to just sit there and use on stuff like robots, aliens, or Black Talon and Viper X in their shiny…
  • Super Sentai Builds Small story on this one. I loved the weapon skins on the Sentai Lockbox. And well, it's Freeform. It's Champions. Build and play how you want to play is a good motto. The result? This thread. I think this is the one time when a lot of us on the forums were all in the same mind set and it just went from…
  • Tranquil Aka - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.45:38 Super Stats Level 6: Constitution (Primary) Level 10: Dexterity (Secondary) Level 15: Strength (Secondary) Talents Level 1: The Protector (Str: 10, Dex: 10, Con: 10, Rec: 8) Level 6: Martial Focus (Str: 5, Dex: 5) Level 9: Physical Conditioning (Str: 5, Con: 5) Level 12:…
  • Sword Cyclone w/ Blender plus imaginary weapons. I like that idea better. Final build looks something like this so far? (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.45:38 Super Stats Level 6: Constitution (Primary) Level 10: Dexterity (Secondary) Level 15: Recovery (Secondary) Talents Level 1: The Master (Str: 8, Dex:…
  • @flowcyto Thanks! Awesome build! Might do Open Palm Strike instead of Shuriken Storm. Maybe Energy Wave? Unsure on that one. The gathering up is what I can see is needed right there. Otherwise, love it and will see about giving it a test drive!
  • Hi, Aesica! Just noticed an error on the Arbiter Spec in Beta. Ruthless should be 3 and Rend should be 2 on the numbers of time it can be taken. Keep up the good work! I enjoy using it here.
  • Thanks for the reply! Sorry it took me a bit to get back to you. What are the current alternatives to the above if any?
  • Hi! So, I haven't seen much on this thread in a while and I'm still parsing a lot. The last one was over a year ago. What has changed since then as far as CCing and what is the current formula? The Healer and DPS guides seem to still be up to date, but this thread's a bit of a mess and I'm curious as to how best to make…
  • Ouch. Yeah, I think I want the Ultimate as one of my main DPS options. I would like it to be able to do some damage on it's own, but the CCing at Cosmics is my end goal on this one. If I can get away with a dedicated one, sure. I'll take it. I also wish that thread was more organized like the others here.
  • Hi! Saw the request, and figured link you to an older post 'cause it looks like what you might want. https://account.arcgames.com/en/forums/championsonline/#/discussion/1217424/megaman-zero-build That one's a fun one and gives a fun ranged option to Laser Sword Tanking without taking away from it.
  • flowcyto does it again. Now I'm curious if we should stick like Particle Smash or Plasma Cutter on there. Use up all the sweet Plasma Burns before applying more again and again.
  • You can, but it sets both on cooldown. EDIT: Also realized descriptions need to be checked to see if these all can be used together.
  • This sounds insane, so I researched it. We have the one I have (Ultimate variant) at the moment. Aesica's HeroCreator helpfully has them listed. I just had to look it up. So here's the others that I see on there. Prototype Emergency Orbital Howitzer (Collector's Store) Hacked Orbital Cannon Codes (Blood Moon store.)…
  • It's not a bad idea, just a lot different. My suggestion is to figure out some stuns, paralyzes, etc. to get Sentinel Mastery here. You're up close, less damage to the team at times, and the team's healing because they are doing damage to the target.
  • I love you, man. Editting in final build now. PTS tested. Dropped Demolish itself for Mighty Lunge w/ Rampant for some defense. Small fry clearing has options, big boys you got Uppercut w/ Rampant to survive followed by Crushing Ruin when you get to 8 stacks and have it free. If you don't have aggro, add in Force Blast w/…
  • And this is why I tossed it on the forums. Commanding Presence was an oops from previous Tanker mindset. Could be used, I guess, to keep things there for slicing and dicing. As for the Eye Beams, anyone got suggestions on replacement? Force Blast comes to mind. I would really like something I can head base and call it an…
  • Checked the forums today and realized I've started something apparently. My life is now complete. :s @"rhymere#3035" Nice! Megaman style is one take I didn't consider. Do any of the parts work with the laser blades? @"hedgehog#9387" I think I've seen you around in game on my Daikaiger character I'm using to farm for SCR…
  • So an update here. I tried on Crushing Ruin and it is EXACTLY what I want for the whole "I pull sword out of no where and go finishing" type of thing. It also allowed to make it look like a punching robot and stick to minimal stuff. Not tested it yet, but would like thoughts. Unlike the previous it's more melee focused and…
  • Wow. Thanks, you two. Between this and Discord, I'm also considering an alternate build for a ranged version. Since it's DPS, shouldn't have to worry about Tanking like stuff being in the face and the like. @flowcyto I'm head desking that I forgot a block enhancer. Will retool it soonish. @"rhymere#3035" Nice! And doesn't…
  • Nice builds! Thanks all around. I love the one flowcyto put up. (Seriously, I did not consider using Dragon's Claws like that. Just the idea of someone going from dual blading to claw stabbing is novel on that alone.) @starflairex Eh, pretty good single sets. My aim was to make use of all the weapon skins. I hope this…
  • I tried out your build and love the hell out of it. Very nice DPS on the Ape and Dino. Thank you for making this and posting it. Seriously, it's fun!
  • That build reminds me I've not even looked at Soul Beam yet. Huh. Will get back to you there!
  • Very much agree there. Also, thank you. Will look into Wisp. Hm. Would rather have kept Star Barrage really. I loved the "I spam energy bullets" theme to it. I was hoping Mystify would make it less costly in the end. I think what happened was as odd as it sounds Martial Arts was too Martial Arts for what I was wanting…
  • So, I may be insane, but I may be on to something. @flowcyto I would love to hear your verdict on this one. It's strange, but so far it has been working. It started as a classic Paladin build using imaginary weapons, but grew into well... this. I'm eager to hear comments on how to improve. I'll note I don't have Scorching…
  • Wow. Got to try out Mental Leech and Shadow of Doubt. Nice looks, but not what I'm looking for in this case even if I changed one to Fist origin.
  • I already got the Orbital Cannon making me want to redo my super robot to incorporate it.
  • I did. That was kinda weird to suddenly have off. One that I have found kinda interesting is Star Barrage, but that kinda just makes it weird. I need to check the other powers mentioned. Mental Leech and Shadow of Doubt I've not messed with overall.
  • I'll note I'm still poking around a bit as well far as powers and such to give him some sort of respectable beam attack.
  • I feel old and completely forgot about that. Going to give it a whirl. Looking at it, I'm curious where the Toxic Nanites come in?
  • Build advice.
  • Hey, flowcyto, thanks for the build. Gave it a try, and you're right that Chest Beam seems to throw it off. I asked around on the pair of End Game channels and got this build from 'Kode Prime' but I'm not sure I'm using it right somehow, or it's not feeling tanky. What's your take on it? Thus far the Open Palm seems to be…
  • Probably martial arts with some sort of beam ranged, I think.
  • So, thanks to the guys over on the CO Discord, got something. Specifically RavenForce over there. Ended up slightly modifying by changing to Endurance Mastery (seriously, don't knock it 'cause I have yet to run out of energy even when getting tossed all over!) but otherwise it looks like this. Energy Rocket Fist - RF V2 -…
