Both! :)

Permadom and Ageless Destiny will sort your end problems much better than 6 slotting Stamina.

Ah, good old ED

Fair enough. As I said, I'll give it a go, I just don't have high hopes on it since I find the previous sets released entirely made by the Homecoming team, are way too mandatory of a determined playstyle and so far, it has not suited me.

Unfortunately for me (this is just MY opinion), these features you describe are exactly what will prevent me from playing this set. Will try it, of course, but if it is clicky set, will most likely delete the char sooner or later.

Kinda like when they blame Trick Arrow Defenders for letting teammates die, they don't understand there's no such thing as "Healing Arrow". I wouldn't allow them to bother me like that and would probably just quit team, for my own peace of mind because, if I get started, next thing is that I will get reported and banned.

Sorry it does not work for you, I've had my fair share of failed respecs but not because having pending lvls, in fact, I did one on Saturday, at lvl 10 chose the wrong travel power so I stopped lvling, used the newly granted respec until lvl 10 again and then kept lvling at trainer until lvl 17.

Exactly, plenty of merits around. The adjustment lower lvl TFs need is to make them fun so hopefully ppl will find doing them more attractive than sitting idle at the door on a fire farm

I'd like to see a few TF's revamped and made fun, that'd make people worry far less about Merits. Citadel is painful, but Synapse is far more painful. Numina is also boring with those time wasting hunts and stuff. I'd like to see the three of them only available in Ouroboros and replaced by much better versions, fun versions. Merits are secondary, for merits, Tinpex can be sped daily as well as ITF all three can be completed in less than an hour for 106 merits, throw in MLTF and LGTF which can also be really fast with the right team and allow lower TFs for people levelling outside PD farms (which seem to be the minority tbh) to have fun.

You can, done it myself quite a few times

Ok, maybe I am wrong but, for what I've read, many people state that Arsenal Control does not have Synergy with Arsenal Assault. So, two heavily linked thematic sets that do not share synergy, shouldn't that be enoough to review at least one of the sets if not both in depth? Just my 2 cents

Basically, on Shield you are protected to all positional defenses, can get decent S/L resistance and a decent dmg boost plus an in-built AoE attack that unfortunately does not crit and since it is treated by the game as a "pseudo-pet", procs are not worth using in it. With Bio, you want to softcap to exotic dmg (nrg / neg / fire / cold) and max on s/l dmg res. you got a better dmg boost than shield (in offensive adaptation) and a decent res to toxic dmg and the possibility of changing to an end efficient mode or even to a tank(ish) mode. Plus you get a self heal that with enough procs and be also a good AoE attack. Both are excellent sets, I nowadays prefer Bio because for some reason, can't stand anymore the interruptions caused by the mez powers in shield, sr and nin.

Ah well, I'd go for something like this anyway, sacrificing Ball Lightning but capped resistances (except negative, toxic and psionic as usual), capped S/L and Melee def and perma-hasten (with Ageless in Destiny slot). I hope it helps.

What are you looking for exactly? I would change quite a few things on that build but I'd be looking to softcap S/L Def and, since you capped resistances instead with no def (which is in my humble opinion much weaker, especially on a scrapper) not sure my proposed build would help you

Thank you very much indeed for clarifying 🙂
