    A friend on the game was asking me about this last night.

    - Let's say that Legendary subscription with DLC rental is not the option... (for you, in this case)
    - Let's say that you want to get the most from your investment.
    - Let's say that one day you'll be trying to get T4 PVE gear, and it is taking forever with only T3 content available.

    You probably want to buy the DLC which includes T4 alerts.

    As for weapons and powers that come with DLC's, I strongly suggest that is your personal choice.
    - Maybe you want to use the shield weapon.
    - Maybe you want to make a Lantern character (green or yellow).
    - Maybe you want to make a Rage character because it's popular.

    Also, do your window-shopping and planning by looking at the PS Store. (If on a PS.) They have deals not offered in the DC Marketplace. You may be able to stretch your money further than you thought, and get more than 2 DLC's.

    No. Waste... Get Sons Of Trigon & WoTL #1.
    You Get Celest (best power in game) & you get t5 content

    Personally I would go with Sons of Trigon basically free 85 gear (All those replay badges on Raven Fml) Its free because doing Trigons Prison gives you 85 weapon at end no matter what and Raven gives a piece of 85 gear of your choice and role and now she drops it every time and also Solos to get Exalted style feat n Prideful style feat and best of all Celestial Power

    If you want to be dps Rage and Celestial, if you want to be a troll then Quantum.
  8. Rhinosus13 Loyal Player

    That would depend on your CR, how far you want to raise it, what styles your after, and what sort of raids/alerts etc you would enjoy doing
  9. The Enquirer Steadfast Player

    OT: There are major changes coming to this game in a few weeks so personally I would ask this again in a couple of weeks after game update 36 hits live servers as it will drastically effect balance. Electricity and Earth may also see a very hefty return soon as well.

    If you're talking on a content only basis I would highly recommend Battle For Earth as it spans literally 3 tiers. Also Hand of Fate is really good as you can earn a lot, a lot of marks for these raids as well as a good number of feats. Those will definitely help the crawl up to t5.

    One day l bought an Origin Crisis DLC (#7), which costed me 5$, because of previous SC selling (50% discount, then also was available buy DLCs with SC). And for some reason they gave me Home Turf DLC as gift with it. So it was 4 x profit!! Then l got both 4 level solos to grab unatt. gear & CR at 4-th lvl (4-th tier missing in DCUO completely for unknown reason). And 5-th solos/alerts/raids from OC itself!! Maybe you've try it - unfortunately Quantum lacks damage since might-based but l hope they fix prec-might relat. soon & its star will rise!!

    You certainly *love* to use the word "hush", isn't it?

    Just a hint for you: obtaining "likes" on your posts is a index of agreement and approval. If only 10% of what I write would be "liked", I'd question my arguments and my attitude. Now, I'm not saying that we should only write things that other may approve, but I can assure you that it doesn't hurt trying to be a tad bit more likeable and open to dialogue, especially if what you write is destined to the public (the forum users).

    "Having a bad character doesn't mean having character"
    -me- (yeah, quoting myself is kinda douchy, but funny nevertheless)
  12. Ghaladh Dedicated Player

    No, it doesn't, unless the only important thing to you is being on top of the damage chart, Quantum is absolutely feasible ad DpS power. Surely the balance between damage and power consumption is questionable, but it's not bad at all.

    It's sort of like electricity. Electric dps is viable but only with a good controller backing you.
  14. Ghaladh Dedicated Player

    I adapted to the situation, so I cast my powers to immobilize the foes and benefit from the attack boost. My damage comes mainly from my two-handed weapon. My game-style as Quantum DpS can be summed up as "it's easier to kill them while they are standing there" :-D. Against bosses I use Warped Reality for the extra damage and the potential cc effect on its minions, Gravity Well to get the 50% bonus and my faithful hammer to bash him out of the Multiverse :-D

    Once you hit higher tier content you won't have the benefit of crowd control in the damage stance unless you mod a lot of dominance into yourself.

    So far I am not having too much trouble. Gravity Well put the foes on their knees long enough to destroy them, while Anomaly helps to keep them together (2H weapon can bash everyone in front of you). Warped reality, although occasionally, gives me a couple of seconds more to accomplish the annihilation :). Yes, I modded some dominance in my armor slots, however. Of course, bosses are practically immune to cc.

    Playing without utility belt and base mods just doesn't feel right to me, so home turf and hand of fate imo. It's really hard to say though with all the dlcs out at this point and t6 on the way. You're going to sacrifice something if you only get 2.

    Well in my opinion I think you should go for something you curious about for example for me I'm curious about Quantum and Celestial but in general it's totally up to you. Just go with what your heart tells you to go for.

    celestial since jump canceling is going to things
