I liken AE to the "holodeck", first introduced in the Star Trek animated series in 1974, but made "famous" in ST-TNG, circa 1996.

Your Mid's link is broken, so I can't comment on the build. I can say, if you want an "influence is no object" fire farmer, you can't beat a brute. I have borrowed (ingraciously stolen, actually) ideas for my farmer and he is everything you'd want: https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1507&c=712&a=1424&f=HEX&dc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f you want a tank, who can survive *any* farming, as well as run all content, I run Inv/SS. He doesn't have nearly the DPS as the broot, but running two accounts, with the tank on follow and foot stomp on auto-cast, I can run the "Big Mobs Tunnel" at +4/8, in about 10-12 minutes...not even really paying attention. https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1567&c=764&a=1528&f=HEX&dc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

So many possibilities....but I'll just leave it with "you tell us" 🙂

But, but, we're only unkillable until we're not... I do, however, look forward to the new challenge settings to make things more difficult. As my (internet-only) friend Cassie Knight (vet level 1,400+) always says... she wants to team with NUT, especially on the ITF, because he is, well, virtually unkillable 🙂

Wait, I *still* love tanking on my Inv/SS tank(s) and Inv/SJ and.....

Simply. The. Best. You're the bomb.com, Hyper. Couldn't have said it better.

Not sure what "Beta" was, but I was on the first retail distribution (remember when 40 was the top level and there were only four tank primaries?) and played almost entirely on Champion server. After my very first toon...NRG/NRG Blaster...I just wanna fly, man!...I made one of my favorite toons of all time: Kin/Dark Defender (Nosfera-too). Kin absolutely ruled the day and I made 50 in a heartbeat boosting tanks on the Chimera ninja map...well before farms and such.

Were you on TT, last week?

I single slot Taunt with the psi-damage Perfect Zinger enhancement...so it does (occasional) damage, as well 🙂

During the last TT and Sarah Moore TF, my "properly" built Inv/SS tanker (NUT) felt the same...😆

LOL

Don't disagree, at all, but I take it and use it as a mule (five slot Impervium armor, which includes the psi-non unique)...don't even put it in my tray for usage...

Brunker, baby. Fire/MA is ridiculous. See Sovera's build (of which I copied/stole from without remorse for my tank - "Marshal Mayhem") for an incredibly tough and fun tank...that just buzzsaws through almost all content...

Best video game of all time.

I have it in Blazing Aura and haven't checked the combat log closely enough to see how often it procs. Again, I have this only on my fire farmer, and the "Big Mobs" mooks drop pretty fast already. 😆

Thanks, and that would make sense. Probably a rounding error, if 185% is max fury...

I hovered my cursor over the bar, with my fire farmer, in the Big Mobs Tunnel map...highest I saw was 93, while being completely surrounded and attacked. Don't know what the 0-100 numeric display equates to, however, I just cruise along leaving bodies in my wake...

Special thanks to Witty for leading SMTF. From someone who despises the shard, due to Wit's planning, efficiency and leadership, we finished in 1:08. Double merits and a Notice..."well" worth it! Probably wont' make Reunion, so see you all on Everlasting on the 19th.

The funny bunny 🙂 Is it just me, or does your codpiece/crotch/groin area have a tiger face?...

And I love Combustion, because my Fiery Melee tanker has MoT in it, so it's a quick recharging, almost guaranteed proc activation for the +Res. I put SGF in Breath, so I get the +Absorb almost every activation, as well. I head to the Hollows, every so often, to Combustion kill those Hellion bosses that were such a pain killing me with Combustion, while leveling 🙂

And I put GA +def, Steadfast +def and a Impervium psi resist in a three slotted Resist Physical Damage. To each their own!

I use it as a mule (five slotted Impervium Armor, including the non-unique psi resist), but don't even have it in my tray. This goes for all my Inv tanks.

Engage @Sovera, the fire tank guru. 'nuff said.

Missed you, WB! Many thanks to Lorna, who led TinPex. Both TFs completed in a total of one hour...not bad! Much fun was had, many bad guys vanquished. Blue flame got a couple of us, but all-in-all, a very respectable outing. Catch everyone next week on Torch.
