Pizza is life. A man with priorities, I see.

Makes sense. I have an E3 Sent that drains EB’s and below very easily. Hard to put a dent in an AV though, by myself at least. Would probably need to build a team around it. Just with AV recovery, idk if it is actually possible to keep them from attacking, since they only need 1 end to do so lol

Haha makes sense, and my preferred way as well 😂

Hi all! I understand that mobs can always attack, even if they have 1 endurance. However, is it possible to fully drain and AV or GM and KEEP them at zero endurance so they can’t attack? I was under the impression that you can’t, but a buddy of mine says you can.

This is a HUGE help, I appreciate it. And hey, you're the forebear to this particular combo, which is pretty cool 😄 Savage just seems like a satisfying set to play with the leap, and Rad seems to have some nice bells and whistles.

Fair enough. I'm definitely on board with a Fire/MA Tanker. I was curious how you felt the Rad/DM combo would fair on a tanker, compared to a Scrapper. On paper, it seems like it'd be pretty damn sturdy to me. I do have a Invuln/SS, so I know about the just being able to stand there forever component of that set 😂 Just exploring new things.

I might start building it out and see how it does 😛 Keep us updated though on how that testing goes! I'd be very interested in hearing how it works out. A different note: I've been looking to build a Rad Armor hero. Not sure what to pair it with. Didn't you mention that @Monos King has a DM/Rad Armor hero that is a PvP and PvE beast?

That last sentence is a major sell 😂 I wasn't sure how the set would feel with skipping it's T9, but it seems like it still flows well. It also seems like Fire covers MA's AOE problem, and MA adds some needed defense to fire. Win/Win I guess. Should be pretty decent for fighting AV's I'm sure.

I also like how you proc'd out Ground Zero and Savage Leap!

This is awesome cutter, I appreciate it! How have you liked playing it?

Hey Sovera! So I've been working on your Fire/Ice Tanker build, the hidden gem. It's been a good time, but I'm seeing all of this popping up in regards to Fire/MA. Would you recommend I run with that build instead? Fire/Ice and Fire/EM both have the double build up mechanic, but what is it about Fire/MA that makes it so special and moves it in front of those 2?

Hi all! I've yet to roll either a Savage Melee or Radiation Armor toon, so I thought "why not combine them both?" 😄 So I've creeped the forums and, for the life of me, I can't find a sample build for this particular combo. Does anyone who has played this combo have any insight/advice that they'd be willing to share? I'd appreciate it!

Dang, forgot that category. We'll substitute it in for one of the others.

No, you're forgetting the other 8 categories: Chadness Sexiness Muskyness Stubborness Singing Dancing Olympic Lifting Freestyle rapping.

Does this mean Brutes win all the decathlons? 😂

Galaxy Brain is Professor X, and this sim is our Danger Room.

Does the simulator have a personal bias, by chance? It is called the "BRUTAL" mission simulator. Might favor them a bit more 😉 *slow claps for himself*

First off, I love your profile avatar 😛 second, what do you mean best variant of Savage? Savage Melee?

idk why people aren't taking @Infinitum and @Galaxy Brain 's offers to run tests. IMHO, pylon tests are "silo'd" data, where you're testing and comparing something that is good at ONE particular thing, and only doing that. To be a dork (and combine my interests) if you take a professional boxer and an MMA fighter and all you have them do is hit a heavy bag with a 1-2, the boxer is probably going to do better. But if we cycle through BJJ, muay thai, sambo, what-have-you into it.... the MMA fighter most likely will outperform. That is why I really like Galaxy's test, it is a more realistic simulation of what you might run into in game. That being said, there are valid points on all sides and everyone is entitled to their opinion! This game is a blast to play nonetheless, and I feel you can make anything work. I tanked a +4 ITF on my Elec/Elec/Elec Sentinel the other day, and it was tons of fun 😛

Data is data, and data is king =P

One thing I’m noting: it seems like Rad Armor is a power set that requires a lot of pics, similar to Invuln. Might be best to pair it with an attack set that only takes a few options for it’s rotation. Does anyone have recommendations on a set like that? I like Claws, but it seems like it requires a lot of picks. Perhaps Psi Melee, Katana, Savage or Dark Melee?

Is that a sign to go Kat/Rad with a lightsaber? 😉 lollll

Fair enough. Probably will do the same with Savage Melee/Rad while I'm at it haha.

Haha fair point 😄 Thanks for the inut Meknomancer, I appreciate it.

Thanks for the input man! Yeah it seems there are a ton a different ways to go about slotting Rad Armor. Claws/Rad Brute or Scrapper both sound like they could be fun. It's interesting, since I feel Claws might be better suited for a scrapper, and Rad Armor better suited for a Brute. Interesting conundrum.
