Don't remember who started the group. I carried it for several years and more or less through close.

Unless you're going to build your own box, the differences between various manufacturers are largely cosmetic (and therefore unimportant when talking about performance). I've had HPs, Lenovos, Dells, Asus, Acer, etc, etc. At some point in my relationship with all the vendors, I've had their product just absolutely shit the bed and multiply my work load.. In the end it all comes down to hardware loadout. I've got very little bandwidth for brand snobbery.

Yep. Solid proof that God's a mere broken-build Scrapper. 😜

You get the visual of The Big Guy/Girl walking out of a flaming hellscape. And all your teammates (who, hopefully aren't corpses), are standing there, looking at you, and screaming "HOW THE *BLEEEEEEEEEP* did you *BLEEEEEEEEP!* survive that shit!" *Cue dusting off of the pecs*

Just laugh, smile knowingly and proceed to eat every last enemy in your range.

No it's still quite useable.

The HP on Blasters is generally too low to make stacking Resists DELIBERATELY worth it. Defense is a lot more useful because of it's binary (all or nothing) nature.

Have a popmenu for running an MSR in this thread:

I've put these up before. CoH Icons.zip

Won't pretend she wasn't expensive. And yes. Zero procs. I know the math behind procs. I simply hate living my life at the mercy of an RNG like that.

A wet noodle that's actually too short to reach your target, so the worst it can do is flick moisture on it...

My Rad/Elec Blapper's loads of fun.

Yeah, unless you get something chucking naught-but-cold at you, and defense debuffage, you're THEN there might be some problems.

Which I also have. Opens up in 2.6.0.5.

Loaded up for me fine on my copy of 1.962

I've moved to "More Is Better" with the release of regular Incarnate Content. Because getting your butt kicked by the "You exit the graveyard to hordes of Incarnate-Level +4x8 Banished Pantheon" in 30 seconds SUCKS!

Going to disagree. On Vectored (Melee, Ranged, AoE) Defense sets, chase vectored Defense until you hit the low 50's. Then fill in with Resist and Regen where you can. On Typed (S/L, E/N, F/C, etc) Defense sets, chase Typed Defense until you hit the low 50's. Then fill in with Resist and Regen where you can. On Resist sets. Work on maxing or near-maxing as many Resists as you can. If you get a chance to slather a bit of Defense over the top and some Regen underneath, do it. Just don't depend on Defense in lieu of your higher Resists. Most regen...build your Resists as high as you can... Most mixed-armor are essentially Vectored or Typed Defense.

(A) is the first slot you get just by picking the power (Automatic). Anything else is the level at which you added that slot. Mids also has a tool built in to reassign slots in natural level progression order. Rather than a build of "squeezed a slot in MUCH later", etc. Slots/Enhancements --> Slots --> Auto-Arrange All Slots Here's a Throw together". Notice how levels of various slots is kinda all over the place? And here's the slot-optimized version:

Can you give us the Mids build?

Honestly I dunno that you need to separate builds. Especially not Invuln. Grab a copy of my Invuln Framework for tanks.

Would you give up Hot Feet on Fire?

Meltdown isn't, strictly speaking, REQUIRED. But it's almost too nice to just ignore.

If you're looking from the big box providers, like Dell. The baseline for the Dell G5 Gaming is a very nice machine for the money. Also, the upgrade from a 1TB HD to a 128GB SSD + 1TB HD is $0.00 (zero bucks, zero cents). https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/gaming-and-games/dell-g5-gaming-desktop/spd/g-series-5090-desktop/nd5090g510s
