One of the first things you get to do in DC Universe Online is choose the powers your character will display as they level up. When you begin the game, all power trees will focus solely on dealing damage.
However, as the game progresses, these powers can become specialized so they match your style of play. This will depend on your initial choice, so it becomes pretty important to get it right the first time.
Your power tree choices will include:
• Fire – primarily a tanking power, although it can deal some hefty damage with it’s long range specialization.
• Ice – also a tanking power but, once again. it can be used for damage as well as crowd control if you go with range.
• Mental – This comes in two flavours – telekinesis and illusion. They each have different uses, but both work great in a crowd control capacity.
• Nature – a great way to get the healing stats you will need if you are trying to be an end-game healer. Plants will give you all sorts of crowd control options as well.
• Sorcery – works through a number of different ways to provide buffs and debuffs to parties and enemies.
• Gadgetry – Thinking Batman and his utility belt? You may enjoy this one. You’ll find a LOT of good traps and tricks here for controlling enemies.
You will be able to use all six of these when you get started for DPS as they are all damage specialized, but when you start approaching level 8 and your loadout selection, you will need to choose which route is best for you. There are four of them : damage, healing, defense, and control. Each role will be vital in Alerts and raids alike, depending on your team makeup.
If you choose to go with tanking you should choose Ice or Fire, Control should choose Mental or Gadgetry, Healers should choose Sorcery or Nature and Damage can choose any of the six as they all scale well for DPS.
Of course don’t forget the fact you can choose Iconic Powers every two levels starting at level 10 if you’d prefer to go with the classics such as X Ray Vision. Think that might be high on my list? 
DCU Online is a fantastic recreation of a universe that has been written about for more than 70 years. Enjoy engaging with some of the powers that helped make it such an iconic part of Americana.
