I did! And i too thought that thematically "force" would be cool. But it leaves a lot to be desired for me anyways. 1) Leap was a nice travel, but the knockdown reminded me of Neo, so that was meh. 2) going down this epic pool tree, means your going toward unleash Potential. and while the the 15% (minimum) def, and the recovery and regen is great, its on a duration timer of 60 seconds, and wont trigger again for 600's so it needs recharge i think. . I got it down to 218, so it was left on cd for around 1 minute 20. I didn't think the tree was was worth it slot efficiency wise, so i went with psionic mastery grabbed a dominate and the end reduction power. But now i think of it....lol... unleash potential can be a mule for def, health and endurance IO's. Wonder if someone knows the return on investment if used as a mule?

I did see a difference last night with the entomb absorb proc. I had my health 6 slotted with the prev build. Does the entomb proc work the same as the health one, (Preventive Medicine: Chance for +Absorb) asorb proc? Im really liking this build, its handling most content. Although both build seem to have KB issues some times. (mainly in mobs).

Thanks Warshades, I went with hold IO's just because it was a "hold power" and from past experience I've always assumed and treated hold and immobilize as the same. In your version, if if the IO's are better I'm fine with that. How is endurance and regen on this build? I only ask because DA is a end monster. I'm making the changes to this to see how this build plays. When slotting SS, to get the KB benefit? I don't have to have it toggled do I?

With Star wars days coming up, I wanted to get my Sithish tank out. His name is Darth Radica, (short for eradicate). He wrestles with the dark side and started his life out as a savior to others. But, lately, as he has gotten older he finds life's daily maneuvering and society's constant in-fighting, his soul is hardening, fueling his darker side. So that's why he's a hero tank. With that I rolled Dark armor as his primary. (No cloak of fear though). I took psionic mastery, 1) for dominate, as a "force choke" type power as he has finally mastered (in secret) the ability to "choke" / force hold someone when needed. And 2) harmonic mind which helps with my endurance. I'm not real big on super speed as a travel, so CJ it is. I got to give a shout out to Infinitum , reviewed a lot of his tank builds to help guide me in creating what I was going to do. So thanks man! Anyways I know this build can be improved wanted to get some thoughts, let me know what you think.

I think that’s wat it was. 😞

Not sure, how can I check?

Last night I used reward merits and cashed them in for lv 46-50. Used 160 merits. When I went to my recipes, none of them were there. I submitted a claim in game and @GM Willow said I should start a claim here. Let me know what other information you may need. I did notice I was still in an AE mission, at the time I used the merits. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the input. It's a little different then my build. Have you tried it out? I don't know if the the loss of DEF is worth the extra MEZ resistance. I'm not a fan of the presence pool, as i can just grab Taunt and with Beta Decay (albeit has a shorter radius), does wonderfully for jumping in mobs to keep aggro on me. I like a having a little more DEF. Thanks for the different build suggestions. It gives me gives me some ideas in the future. 😃 👍

Hell, I'm back after a 10 year absence. Been playing for about 2 weeks now and built and leveled my tank to 50 and have him IO'd out now. I should of asked sooner before slotted everything, but oh well. i I like running TF/SF/Radios and everything in between with this toon. I have enough respecs to alter/change based on your recommendations. So thank you in advance. My first priority was to go max Resistance S/L capped. Second, I use to run a invul tank back in the day, and my biggest problem was facing and taking PSI damage, so that was my next priority, boost PSI as high as possible. With all the changes and builds available i went with a RAD /DM tank. I do lack on the damage side so is this tank slotted appropriately, or did i go to heavy S/L resistance and sacrifice in other slots? Thank you in advance for your help and advice.
