the proc is more useful with the chance for an absorb.
And for this alone, I'd go for the Entombs. Personal preference of survivability over damage. You're at tank!

Check out this thread.
If you decide to go tank I'll send you that one, as well.

also come with a helpful defensive barrier to protect him from the debris created by the excessive collateral damage he causes.
Bravo, Zork. Pure gold 😆

Other than those three specific powers, what are your goals? Max damage? Max survivability? A blended strategy?
Also, will this be an only-end-game 50+ or would you level this toon and exemp down on the regular?

Hey guys! Thanks for the advice. We played some Radio missions tonight for fun and found that leaving the party size option alone but raising the difficulty to 2 worked well. Toggling the AV/EB option didn't seem to do anything for the Radio Missions.
My friends enjoyed things more, mostly because I was actually taking damage, so the Defender and Dominator felt like they were being useful with their defensive, healing, and CC effects.
Thanks for helping me work through this issue! I know a little more about the fundamental systems now too.
And THAT'S why this community is so great...so many well-meaning and helpful players, who can explain and give advice, without being dismissive or condescending (unlike some other not-to-be-named) boards or Discords)...

Yeah, I was a bit reckless and ended up as designated floor licker more than a few times but I play pretty much everything that way.🤷♂️
All good and since we didn't have @wittylibrarian on the team, you filled in nicely! 😁

I have a build that I am moving towards...However I am looking for advice on the Tanker ATOs. For Spines/ are there two obvious powers that one should slot them in? RIght now, I'm looking at Ripper and Throw Spines for both of the uniques....Is that fine
There are several philosophies around this topic, and you can see some of the debate, in other threads discussing build theory.
Some split the sets to maximize a certain bonus (like using three pieces of Gauntleted Fist, in two different powers, for double the E/N Resistance bonus). Me, I'm more of a purist and like to keep them together, and since my tanks can also support fire farms, that 6th piece bonus of 6% F/C resist is desirable. Personal preference.
As far as the +Res in Might of the Tanker, you can basically guarantee one perpetual bonus in a damage aura. Some see that as heresy, as the goal should be two continuous stacks and a third, as a possible extra bonus. I have a varied approach, using MotT in a damage aura on Fire Armor (Blazing Aura), but slotting it in a Tier 1 attack power, virtually every other toon. Then slotting GF, in the Tier 2 attack. They proc often and can have two (or three) stacks of +Res, constantly. Slotting the ATOs, *very early*, assures that while leveling (and if I exemplar down) I get the Res and Absorb bonuses. If you never play anything but 50+ content, then slotting them in a Tier 9 power certainly works.

What time do you guys do your Euro Runs?
I'm in GMT +9 so it's pretty impossible to make your usual Tuesdays unless I have a Wednesday off.
9:30AM Pacific, so whatever that means for GMT 😝
Here's a link to the Reunion TTT thread:

I don't even recall seeing Rock Shield, probably due to whiskey.
I thought it was heretical to not take granite.
The T1 armor is actually named "Rock Armor"...and no, don't ever skip it 😁.
Not anymore. I take it as more of a mule (for the Unbreakable Guard +7.5% hit points) and the ability to take that form, for thematic purposes. Back on Live, it was a must. With the QoL changes to Stone, it's really superfluous, now. As Sovera mentioned, there are outstanding benefits/bonuses from the other armors, that you immediately lose when you activate Granite. I run PLVRIZR 99.9% outside of Granite, and breeze through +4/8 content, even exemplared down from 50+3.

PLV took a team through Yin's TF, thanks for leading PLV.
My pleasure! We were only six, but mighty. I piloted my titular toon and there was only one other 50 (not fully kitted) and four were mid-20s to mid-30s...so we channeled our best @Spaghetti Betty and ran +4/8 with no insp or temps. JUST KIDDING. +2/8 and finished in 44 min. with only a handful of defeats (I think @PapaSlade forgot that he was running a 30-something and not the usual 50+3/Tier 4 Incarnate 😆). Took a bit longer than usual, as I had to be careful about how many mobs we herded. All-in-all a grand time with a bazillion levels gained and my favorite part of the TF was three of the six tanks dinged simultaneously at the reactor entrance door before Clamor, so we ran right to her, half the team fully juiced, and she went down like a /forum edit/, the first round.

You can ask my team how it went! I'm sure @ZemX has raving reviews!

It was nice to meet y'all on Tuesday. I wish I had the time to run something with y'all, but at least wanted to say hello. I've been lurking here since I came back in January, and have really enjoyed learning about the things that have changed since I was away from your builds. I appreciate the posted builds and advice that y'all have posted over the past few years. It made coming back a lot easier having points of reference from people who have been playing. I am still getting my feet under me, but I am sharing a build in the near future. It is a very different build, but it should at least make for some good conversation.
Ditto, DR!

My current favorite Smashing/Lethal farmer is a Sheild/Battle Axe Tanker.
It's replaced your Elec/Elec Broot???

This is an older build, by @Heraclea (God rest their soul), IIRC. Should be a solid/simple foundation, but there are alot of tricks that have been realized in the last couple of years that your buddy will find while leveling and poking around the forums.

I assume because of the DC hero "Atom Smasher".
Appeal and tell them you're actually a supervillain that smashes Automated Teller Machines and that this must all be just a big misunderstanding. 🤪
Oh well, guess I'll have to change it to ATMSTOMPR...

Synapse team had a blast. Thanks again to @Ronin_Around for leading...and that completed Task Force Commander for this toon!
I brought my Rad/SS and it was a cakewalk. Really missed Foot Stomp, but procc'd Hand Clap did the job.
Logging in this morning, however, I was "genericized". Just the name, not the costume. Dunno why "ATMSMSHR" would infringe on any copyrights, though. 🤔🤷♂️

I've only run mine with the group so far, so I was assuming the plan is still Talos bank + Synapse... but I can do whatever.

Like this?Just copy and paste from Windows Explorer. Should be a .mxd file (or the like, depending on what version of Mids' you're using).
-
You're better off copying the file and pasting it in. Mids exports don't work (for me).
-
"Plague" refers to biological contamination (bacterial or insectoid), so I'd recommend Bio. Evolving Armor "infects nearby enemies, lowering their resistance". DNA Siphon "siphons genetic material from nearby enemies". Genetic Contamination "breaks down the genetic material of your foes with a powerful toxin". And the coup de grace is Parasitic Aura..."release a cloud of parasites". Damn plaguey to me...

PLV ran Yin... Much leveling and silliness was had by all. Welcome to all the players new to Tanker Tuesdays (and the game).
My lens cap was on, so no pics. We also had a blast with some intermediate level tanks on Yin (a couple of us were built) and finished a +2/8 in 33 min. I think I counted four of our eight as new TTers, so I echo the welcome. We had some great herding as well. Drove my titular toon and was pleasantly reminded that non-Granite stone armor is great against Freaks and their sucky Super Stunners...
