So, mine is WM (no inherent heal), and since my positional defenses were already soft-capped I chose: Alpha - Resilient (Core) Hybrid - Melee (Core) Destiny - Rebirth (pick your fave) Interface - Diamagnetic (Core for all my tanks) Judgement - Mighty (theme appropriate) Lore - pick 'em Makes for a ridiculously durable tank (and the mace-banging-the-shield taunt is just gravy :-)). https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1588&c=727&a=1454&f=HEX&dc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

Agree with Farm Fresh, which this build is based. Spines/Fire still does awfully well: https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1563&c=731&a=1462&f=HEX&dc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

Here's my version (Inv/SS), but I also tag along on fire farms, so it's a bit modified (I also live with the Arachnos blindness and take Pyre mastery (instead of Energy mastery), to slot the +absorb proc on Char...and to have a ST hold for Sappers, and the like). Data chunk is without the MoT AT and the stat snip that follows is completely incarnated. https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1621&c=775&a=1550&f=HEX&dc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dd 6.7% to each Resist below, x2 on many occasions: And keep in mind that Inv is a layered/complimentary set, so with 50% DDR, you rarely lose your defenses and, as you can see with 10 mobs around you, not much gets through...

Best of luck and the only SR I ever had was a really fun Claws/SR scrapper on Live (pre-IO/pre-Incarnate), that I did get to 50. My main (currently ~VL 400) is NUT, and you're right, he's much more fun ex'd down to mid 30s or above, where I have to actually use Dull Pain to survive. +4/*8 ITFs are a cakewalk. Having said that, there's not much more satisfying than Foot Stomp, every 7-10 seconds 🙂

I went the "as durable as possible" route, and in homage to Heraclea, but if you're interested in a (no ToF) Inv/DM build, here's mine: https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1460&c=728&a=1456&f=HEX&dc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ncarnated, the toon is virtually unkillable (especially with Dull Pain and Siphon Life).

Last night was a blast and thanks for leading the TinPex, WB....many nuts were cracked, for sure!

About spit my drink out, on this one 😆

...and to avoid the most-frustrating-thing-in-the-game blinding by Arachnos...

You remember correctly. Invuln's Invincibility is one of the best taunt auras (and a phenomenal defensive boost).

^--this When I rolled my Ice/Axe tank on Live it was before the IO (and long before the Incarnate system), and he was frustrating as hell, being used to maining a Stone tank. With no DDR, even low level CoT were a problem. I made it to 50 (because I'm a stubborn fool who tries to never give up), but then shelved him and never played him, again. I'm intrigued with ice melee, however, and may just roll a WP/Ice or Inv/Ice, instead.

DId you mean DB/Fire?

Absolutely, positively, THE aggro magnet. Nice work. Only Ice tank I ever made to 50 was an Ice/Battle Axe on main (FRZRBRN)...should have done Ice/Ice, in hindsight...

Four tank Posi (ex'ed to what, lvl 12) was interesting, but we were mighty!...even at /8, so we fought two each of our Sims... Pep's sim was the *worst* and got a couple of us...darned EM. 😆 Missed Hera, but I ran my Inv/DM tank (predominately their build), in their honor. Damn that build is durable!

Haven't taken Rad to 50, and haven't done a spines tank....well, ever, but if you want the classic (unkillable) Invulnerabilty/Super Strength tank, with some Pyre mastery debuffs, this is your guy (props to Hyperstrike and Infinitum for the base): https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1621&c=775&a=1550&f=HEX&dc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f you want an unkillable Inv/Dark Melee (props and homage to Heraclea's original build), with more debuffs, I run (and will run him tonight, in their honor), you can try this one: https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1460&c=728&a=1456&f=HEX&dc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othing, however (IMHO) is as satisfying as Foot Stomp, every 7-10 seconds (so go with NUTCRCKR). But I'm old school...

Don't feel bad, as I've experienced the same with WP. As a self-proclaimed Invulnerability fanboy, I was dismayed when I took my WP/Fiery Melee tank into ITF and got royally waxed (albeit at +4/8), at the dark ambush. Realized the difference between 50% DDR and 21.6% is *immense*. The regen of WP, which is more than enough for 99% of all PVE content, wasn't enough for ITF. Easily fixed with Barrier or Ageless (Radial version) Destiny Incarnate, but you've gotta plan for that, if being able to main tank everything. Having said that, I truly love the tank that I posted above, as he can tank almost everything at +4/8 (including ITF, now), including fire farming...and, as mentioned above, YES he takes the T9 (because, well, his name includes "Will", so "Strength of Will" is a must :-)).

😆

That was unclear...should have added (albeit a) single target power. NUT is Inv/SS/Pyre and uses Melt Armor, so very familiar with it. Back to dual build, then 🙂

Yeah, had a hard choice and chose Temp Invuln, to be more durable, since he already has Heat Exhaustion as a single target debuff ...great point and why I asked! May reconsider or make a second build and see if 45% ranged is enough to not constantly facepant (like a blaster...no insult intended, some of my best friends are blasters :-)).

I don't have that exact combo, but my WP/Fire tank is pretty stout...here's his build: https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1433&c=707&a=1414&f=HEX&dc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nd here's my Inv/SS go-to.: https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1562&c=762&a=1524&f=HEX&dc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aybe you can take the best of both worlds? 🙂

Makes sense, where would you recommend they go on this build?

Lemme start with the caveat...I'm a tanker. Have been tanking since 2004. I think I do pretty well, as anyone who has teamed with any of my tanks (in my sig) would/could attest...(and Cenozoic once even referred to my tanking as "legendary"). When I wasn't tanking, I played a Kin/Dark Defender and, when the team needed AV debuffing, a Rad/Rad Defender. I had great fun with an Ice/Emp Controller, as well (all have been rebuilt in Homecoming - in sig). I also had a couple of blasters, and they were lots of fun, but missed the support role. When CoV came out, I gave it a whirl. Never played a Corruptor, as I quickly found the Mastermind AT quite satisfying (and then went back to CoH to tank :-)). Which leads me to this. Ran this Corr to 50, with just IOs and am now ready to make a (fairly) Min/Max version. Cobbled together some advice, from other builds, and came up with this. Something about not using both Corruptor ATOs, just doesn't feel right, so that's one of my dilemmas. Also not sure if SFB - immob, is right in RoF. I did accomplished the goal of soft capped ranged def., but without Force of Nature, not sure how durable he'll be. Suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Don't know that I've ever been accused of giving "bad advice", when putting a Num's unique in a build (but I guess there's a first time for everything)...also, never said one was better than the other, if you'll re-read my post, I never mentioned either, just included it in a build example. You make a valid point, but missed the mark by being overly critical. As I also said, it's great that we have the ability to post cross-build examples and ideas. Everyone must make their own choice in how they execute...and with unslotters being (fairly/comparatively) inexpensive, we can try and try again. Merry Christmas!
