I'm not calling for the change, just saying I wouldn't object. Status quo is fine.

Fair point. I'm assuming that with a 60s base recharge and 30s duration, it would effectively be perma and you could recast if it expired before the spawn was defeated.

Cupid's Crush is available from reward merit vendors and can also be obtained by using enhancement converters on Overwhelming Force.

While I'm in favor of an accurate healing/damage set, the breakdown of the proposed enhancement values doesn't work. Accuracy is far too low (26.5%) and needs to be increased significantly. You hit ED max for healing but only get to 68.9% for damage and 26.5% each for recharge and end reduction. You can get superior results combining 3x Touch of the Nictus with 3x Devastation (or 3x Mako's Bite). I would drop the %dmg proc and replace it with another standard enhancement, perhaps acc/dmg/rech. If you don't drop the proc, then I would replace the heal/absorb piece with acc/heal/absorb or acc/heal/absorb/rech. Restricting purchase currency to Anniversary Tokens is a complete non-starter, as they can only be redeemed during May.

Correct, except for purple and PVP sets. These don't need to be attuned and always retain their set bonuses.

Transfusion requires accuracy. While you're probably OK while running Tactics and with your acc set bonuses, you may run into issues if you exemp. I typically slot Transfusion with Touch of the Nictus. You're going to want end reduction in Teleport. Slot an end/range IO from the Teleport sets. Siphon Speed requires accuracy (see above). Split the Scourging Blast set into two groups of 3 to double up on the recharge bonus. While it's a great place to mule the uniques, I wouldn't bother slotting Increase Density for dmg res. It only provides S/E resist and the duration is too short to keep it up on a team. Bitter Ice Blast should be slotted for damage, not debuff. It's your highest DPA attack. Put the other half of Scourging Blast here. Slot Speed Boost with an end mod IO. Move the -kb IO to Inertial Reduction. Too many slots in Fire Shield. The 5/6 piece bonuses aren't worth it. You would be much better of with 4x Unbreakable Guard. Attaching my build for comparison. Uunchill - Corruptor (Ice Blast).mbd

They can be purchased from Luna in Ouro for 100 reward merits each.

Here's a list of the AoE -res powers (Tide Pool is -dmg, not -res). Many of them summon a pseudo pet, with the debuff duration differing from the pet duration. Clearly, there are quite a few comparable powers that have a recharge similar to Tar Patch. As a practical matter, it doesn't take more than 1-2 recharge IOs and a modest amount of global recharge (excluding Hasten) to get Tar Patch's recharge under 40s. I've found this to be adequate in most circumstances. Would I object to reducing the recharge to 60s and the duration to 30s? No. The 45s duration is longer than necessary. Eff Dur Pet Dur Recharge Dispruption Arrow 1.25 45 30 Freezing Rain 30 15 60 Sleet 30 15 60 Slowed Response 30 NA 90 Tar Patch 0.5 45 90 Acid Mortar 20 60 90 Melt Armor 40 NA 100

If you build /SR properly, you won't need a heal.

Don't rush to get to max level. Take the slow route leveling your character(s) and enjoy the content along the way. There's far more content at lower and middle levels than there is end-game content. While it's incredibly easy to sit in a farm and hit lvl 50 in a matter of hours (plus a few more hours to unlock all your Incarnate slots), end-game content is pretty limited. There are about 12 task forces/trials designed for lvl 50s (3 of which have hard mode or "starred" versions), plus 8 Incarnate trials (typically done by leagues of 16-24).

My Stone/Elec brute is capped to S/L/E and in the low 80s to F/C/P. Elec is weak to Ne and has no Tx protection at all (I got Ne resist up to 53% and Tx up to 29%). You obviously want the Shield Wall 5% +res unique. As crappy as the brute ATOs are, they have solid resist bonuses for 6 pieces (6% S/L for Superior Brutes Fury and 6% S/L/F/C/E/N for Superior Unrelenting Fury). Most purple sets have both 6% F/C and 6% T/P resist bonuses. Superior Winter sets have 6% F/C. Bombardment and Shield Wall have 4.5% E/N bonuses. There are quite a few sets with 4.5% T/P and 3.75% S/L bonuses.

You have quite a few powers slotted with 6 procs and no accuracy. Even with Tactics and Kismet +acc, you don't have as much accuracy as you think you do since you have the Gaussian's %bu proc turned on. If you toggle that off, you're well below 95% chance to hit against +3s. Not sure what you're doing with Shifting Tides. The Scourging Blast proc should be slotted in an attack, not a toggle. Accuracy and recharge aren't required. I recommend moving all 3 pieces of Scourging Blast. The Enzyme is doing nothing except providing end reduction ( Shifting Tides has no debuffs). I found that the Gaussian's %bu proc didn't fire often in Shifting Tides. I recommend moving it to Tidal Forces, where it will be almost guaranteed to fire and is a great lead in to Geyser. The HO in Power of the Depths is doing nothing. You're at ED max for healing without it. Swap it for a recharge IO. You have 3 empty slots in Tactics. I would slot 2 Cytos and move the other 2 slots elsewhere. Brine requires accuracy. Slot the Unbreakable Guard +hp piece in Charged Armor or Tough.

The armor for Arsenal Mastery already exists. https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=epic.munitions_mastery.body_armor&at=blaster

Mind Over Body was introduced as part of Psychic/Psionic Mastery for defenders and controllers in Issue 3. Willpower wasn't introduced until Issue 11.

Dark Regen has a base recharge of 30s. I don't have Hasten on my DA tank, nor do I have hefty amounts of global recharge, but with 47% in recharge slotted my Dark Regen is up every 16s. I can count on one hand the number of times I've needed it sooner (and it's usually because I was debuffed and it missed). More important is slotting it for end reduction as well as slotting the Theft of Essence %end proc. I just leveled a BA/Bio brute, and even with Bio's end management tools, I found end usage to be problematic and often had to resort to using Efficient Adaptation. Dark Armor has no end management tools, so I expect BA/DA will be challenging end wise.

Appears to be Issue 5, which "featured" a Global Defense Decrease.

You're mixing sets. Physical Perfection is in Energy Mastery and doesn't belong in an Arsenal set. Mind Over Body is in Psi Mastery and is already available to controllers. Arsenal gets Body Armor (see blasters).

It depends on your hit points (0.2 x max hit points) https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=set_bonus.set_bonus.preventive_medicine_proc

Dominators get Caltrops in Martial Assault and Thorntrops in Thorny Assault. Nope

The green lines are the drop ship routes. You only need to search for bombs near the green lines.

Not sure if you're talking about radio missions or story arcs. In story arcs, there are certain encounters that are scripted to have 3 or more bosses, 1 EB and 2 bosses, etc.

I no longer remember his name, but there was a Fire tank on Protector that used to lead STFs almost daily. Ran one with him just before the servers shut down.

Don't skip Power Boost. It's essential with Time. Using it before casting Farsight increases the defense it provides by 78% for the full 120s duration. It also increases the heal and recovery buff provided by Chrono Shift, so I usually cast the three together. Drop Soul Storm for Soul Drain. You don't have Aim in DP and Soul Drain will provide a big damage buff before using Hail of Bullets. Slowed Response is unslotted. At a minimum you want acc and rech. I usually 3-slot Analyze Weakness (the pieces with recharge). Time Crawl doesn't need more than 1 acc in the base slot. Drop Hover or Assault for Distortion Field. It doesn't need more than 1 slow in the base slot but it provides a good debuff that stacks with Time's Juncture.

I soloed it on a lvl 50 blaster. I didn't use lore pets, but I did use Barrier and Assault.

Did this for the first time today. Lots of fun. Highly recommend.
