What's your favorite free Archetype ?

[TwistedDude]

I'm just wondering. Mine would be The Mind because of it's healing capabilities, And you're able to spam it's energy builder.

Eh... Energy builders aren't meant to be spammed. You just toggle them on to deal some damage and generate energy automatically. That's their whole purpose.
Also, the Radiant is a better healer. The MInd is meant to be more of a controler.

If I had to play an archetype, it would be the Glacier. Highly survivable and with good crit damage.

I guess Dragon Spirit and Unleashed

I think i'm gonna go back to focusing on free archtypes instead of buying them, Atleast that way i can focus on costumes and other stuff

Like I said in this other post The Blade so far has been mine and pretty fun for me mate.

To answer the OP's original question. I just started myself and I chose The Blade and so far I been all right soloing by myself. My character look is a cross between Snake Eyes from G.I. Joe and Deadpool except my costume is grey and black and I went with teleport travel powers like Nightcrawler because of the Ninja theme I went with. The Blade is the best Archetype for that theme IMO from what I can tell. At the time I made him I'll be honest I was trying to do a themed character like Spiderman, but I felt like with out freeform I wouldn't really be able to do him up properly so I kept it simple to test the game out and made up my own. So far I been doing all right with him soloing on my own mate.

Kinda funny how I came up with mine though because when I was a kid I use to aggravate my little brother playing games like Mortal Combat and when I would be winning I had this line I use to say to him. I would say, "I am Ninja Warrior and I cannot be defeated. You can not defeat me because I am Ninja Warrior!!!!". lol Goofy and childish I know, but It popped in my head and thus Ninja Warrior was born. Lmao!!!!

I know i said i was going to focus on free archetypes, But i lied. I had the Invincible and The Inventor on another account and i missed playing as them. I also bought 10 hero slots(i have 19 total now). Well you know with the hero slot cap at 100, I can still focus on free archetypes.

if you like mind you'll love almost any other archetype (telepathy is literally the worst powerset in the game)

Only if you try making a build around Congress of Selves.
Seriously, don't try that.

Oh its terribad any way you slice it if you're using telepathy. The "Telekinesis" set (NOT real telekinesis btw) is pretty good, but obviously not telepathy.

Telepathy does include a couple of good powers. Psi Leash is one of the quickest-firing ranged energy builders and can buff your damage output. Mind Drain is on par with Life Drain (unfortunately you have to unlock that power). Ego Storm is an AoE deals high damage and leaves the targets held, allowing you to get away from them and set up another attack. Mindful Reinforcement is a bubble that can also heal you. And Telepathy Reverbration gives you energy simply for hitting a disoriented target.
It's just the whole Ego DoT stuff that's useless.

A couple good powers (Ego storm is very buggy and definitely not one of them) does not make telepathy a decent set.
