And I apologize. It's the Defense amp that provides the Mez protection. https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Defense_Amplifier Also available from P2W. This is what I get for following up on legitimate argument with a flubbed factoid in it.

At one point, Amps were purchasable "doses" that could be activated ad-hoc. A choice was made to simplify it to a directly applying buff. Unsure of the full story behind why or what it might have "fixed".

You're conflating "takes nothing from you" with "a good idea". And if I wanted to be obtuse, I COULD say "YES" the idea takes something from me. It takes away my ability to play my lowbie blast-ish characters the way they're supposed to be played. I.E. NOT AS TANKS.

What're you talking about? P2W VENDOR! Note: This screenie was taken on an L26 character.

"Fun" is an entirely subjective metric. So subjective that calling it a "metric" is actually a misnomer. And yes, I'm fine with squishies having a slower leveling experience. The game already gives multiple avenues to fast leveling.

There is no "overkill". There is only "kill" with ever-greater confidence levels.

And we should give Melee characters epic, blaster level damage on their ranged attacks. And Domination-like boosts on any control powers. And, you know what? Scrap all the ATs and just create a generic "Hero" that can do it all and be all-powerful and take no damage." I'll even spring for the name! Physical God. Sorry if it comes off snide (it is). If you want to play a Tank/Brute/Scrapper/Sentinel, play a Tank/Brute/Scrapper/Sentinel. Don't insist that other ATs be slowly converted to Tank/Brute/Scrapper/Sentinel run-alikes. And carry break frees. It's called "learning how to play your character". And THIS is coming from a guy who's lazy and defaults to attempting to Tank on EVERYTHING!

How old is this system?

Pretty much.

Any or all of them. Granted, you want to take care to buff Psi Def/Res effectively.

NOPE!

Never had a PI problem while I was in Scouting either. Assorted nasty cuts, bugspray in the eyes, and being molested by infinite mosquitoes in upstate Wisconin (where they're the State Bird). Ever see a single mosquito bite welt larger than a Kennedy Half-Dollar? Well, some of that might be because, with my troop, they used to say "Where 63 goes, nothing grows..." And they even made me an Eagle Scout! Those FOOLS! HMBOOWAHAHAHA! Think Evil Batman. BE PREPARED!

High speed, low drag Regen to put some pep in the step of Stone? Bibbity! Bobbity! BUU! Ah crap... Wrong one! Here's my take on it.

... ... The primal screaming in my head. It won't stop. IT... WON'T... STOP!!!

Who needs vampires when we have WARSHADES? Vamps just suck your blood. Warshades will swallow your soul! HMBOOWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Did it on live once Not QUITE 7B, but close. ONCE. Got greedy and wasn't paying attention to my zeroes. So I raided my piggy bank. Then logged off. Logged back in on that character a couple days later. Went to look in and cash out. What? WHAAAAT!?!?!?!?!? No. Nonononononono... AUUUUUUUUUGHHHHH!!!

Nonono. How many times do I have to tell you? That's not a spacer! THIS is!

I do the niche marketing thing to put initial operating capital on my characters. So, usually by the time I'm 10th level, I can afford level appropriate enhancements until generic IOs at 30 or so.

Howsabout this for some "Beast Mode"?

Hopefully they bought you flowers and dinner first...

*Slides into frame w/ super-deformed angry-face* *WHAP!*

I did leave the last power blank. And yes, i moved the powers around like Infinitum did to basically mimic the EM Beta stuff.

I prefer Fly. JEEEEETPAAAAAACK!

Here's a slightly different take. And YES, I took Taunt. A Tauntless Tank is an abomination in the eyes of the Tank Gods. You may as well play a Flabby Little Girlie Brute or a Scrapper who thinks they can PAHMP themselves AHP!

Is there a DB update for Mid's for the new EM changes yet?
