Villain Epics: Arachnos Soldier & Widow / Lobster's Guide to Crabbing

« on: December 21, 2021, 02:34:10 pm »

Here is another guide from the live forums that I found very helpful. https://web.archive.org/web/20120905142751/http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=124467&page=2

The sample builds haven't been updated with inherent Fitness or ATOs, but they are still a good starting point.

This is not my work, just sharing so that others may benefit from it as well.

Hero Epics: Peacebringer & Warshade / Warshade Guides-Preserving Knowlege

« on: December 19, 2021, 01:45:24 pm »

There are numerous guides on the old forums and, while some are outdated, they contain a lot of information that is worth keeping around. I did not write these, but some people may want to read them without having to go diving through the old, live forums:

First: the magnum opus of tri-form Warshade guides. It is something of the gold standard for powerset guides: https://dechskaison.blogspot.com/2011/01/mfing-warshade.html

Here is an exceptionally thorough human-only Warshade guide. The author recommends leveling up as a tri-form and respeccing into human-only at 50: https://web.archive.org/web/20120906052513/http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=280670

A build-only post from just before shutdown: https://web.archive.org/web/20120911114020/http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=296404

I haven't played any of the human-only builds, but have really enjoyed my currently level 47 tri-form Warshade and can't wait to really see what he is capable of. I hope this helps some others get interested in playing Warshades. They can be daunting, so these guides can really help narrow one's focus.

If there is interest, I have a lot of other good player guides bookmarked that I am happy to share in their appropriate forum.
