ICR cannot be solo'd. Need at least a full raid group, maybe two. However he has a chance to drop Cosmic GOKs so its worth it.

Didn't see his post so lets see how it compares to my thoughts

Yeah. nothing too special at first. I wasn't feeling him either. I have NOT tried the frozen orb build, most likely won't, but was doing a ranged/melee hybrid. I did not care for it at all. Bosses were taking way to long in terminals to down and LOL at trying to kill a boss in Midtown or ICR by myself. So spirit starved even with the +200 spirit from M'kraan and the +spirit from hitting enemies with energy attacks

Absolutely. Baller as gently caress. Not sure how it will do at 60 raid content but it makes leveling fun.

It also makes the rotation a little more involved since there is no cooldown on your shatter skills. Now I don't know how it will perform at 60 compared to other specs, but I think a Construct Focus spec


I use frozen lance over Icy Arsenal and don't use Frozen orb. Nor do I use Artic Wave but am interesting in tweaking my build more. Honestly my build is based around just Frozen Lance spam cause I'm lazy. Its just priority really
Ice Slick>Flash Freeze>Frozen Lance
Repeat as Iceslick comes off cooldown. Toss in Construct Focus, IceWall on top of bosses, Statue and Sig whenever possible. Spam spam spam and win. Might not be the most fine tuned setup but I murder bosses quick and barely get touched. I enjoy it
If I am on a boss I'll go
Ice Slick>Flash Freeze>Frozen Lance>Construct Focus>Frost Nova>Frozen Lance(Repeat Ice Slick, Flash Freeze Lance) Statue and Sig.
Bosses normally dead before Sig finishes

The reason I decided to go with Arsenal is it has the Area Tag so you can stack up on Area damage/Armor Grenade since all his other sweet moves are Area, and being Melee tag also lets you take Omegas like Frenzy and Harpy and gives you access to some of the artifacts like HPP if you want to use them. I originally went with it because I figured it would be easier to hit the wall with it due to the spread.

Frozen orb gains extra ticks from + area radius, using a doc ock and a pps will bump your ticks per orb from 2-3 to almost always 4, with the occasional 5 ticks depending on mob positioning. It is one of the few situations where +radius is really worthwhile.

I do love that you can choose to beef up his constructs with pet damage, or just ignore pet damage and focus on your skills while having 3 bad as ice buddies chilling out with you.

I am getting 3-4 ticks per Orb and rarely 2 or 5 without any radius gear. Honestly I just think the skill randomly does 2-5 ticks and for some reason the tooltip doesn't mention it.

It's Gaz, so I'm totally willing to believe it's bugged or they forgot to actually turn it on but the intent is for their artifacts to drop.

I've never gotten the necklace. I've gotten the Mags was right t-shirt. Other people have gotten GoKs. People have gotten Lizard formulas from the Lizard in ICP. It's Gaz so it's entirely possible they did something that breaks just Man-Ape but that didn't seem to be their goal and it would make him different then everyone else.

The damage from construct focus AE is one of his really buggy abilities right now, it does scale off pet damage and not any of your stats, but it also only scales based on the snapshot of when the pets where summoned. It also scales off ranks in the pet and not in the skill itself, so other than the extra 20% pet damage, which is about 800 or so damage a tick, there is not much point in ranking up construct focus right now.

I've also had my lone gok drop in the wild (Midtown) last week on my way to this -



~500 legendary quests, 15 xp pots, 15 xp bars, and 3 Omega boosts.

SG is brain dead simple to cosmic, I picked her because I could do the run mostly with mouse only, button mapping Squirrel Sp. Forces, DFtT, 'pocalypse, her movement power, and medkit.

I had saved up a hoard of credit chests for rerolling quests. Turns out that with all the lunar loot dropping and from selling the previous week's beads I never dropped below 1 million creds. Now I have too many chests and don't understand how to get value from them. Turn them into unstables? Reroll my gok and try and trade it for gok+?
