I like that a lot. Nice job with that build. Does fiery embrace increase radials fire damage? Might be a good reason to switch.

Oh, you misunderstand. See, the name of the build I posted is defensive fire tank. As it was asked for a defensive fire tank build. I have a second build that is offensive fire tank. Also, you really should push for S/L def as well as melee. The engine will pick the highest def you have to use against an attack with that type. 90+% attacks in the game have a S/L component. So if your S/L def is higher than say, your cold def, on an attack that has both cold and s/l dmg types? The engine will use the S/L def to defend against it. Now, consider what happens when that's a ranged attack that has cold and s/l as it's damage type. And S/L is higher than your cold def or your ranged def... It will still use the S/L def to defend against it.

@jack, you should have just asked for the offensive build ;)

Auto autofly? That's just dangerous for me! I overshoot my targets as it is... I don't need to fly into a mob when I only want to go a short distance!!! ;D I have a 'jump' bind that I use, don't know if it will work with a flypose or not. ALT+W "+forward$$powexec_name null$$powexec_name Fly$$powexec_name Mystic Flight$$powexec_name Energy Flight" Basically, if I'm running and want to fly a short distance I just hit ALT with W and I launch into the air. I then steer with my mouse by holding down the right mouse button.

Change it to a ++ and it will auto run. /bind w "++forward$$em flypose1" Or should, I can double check if it doesn't work.

Find playerslot.txt in your game folder. You can arrange them there anyway you like and they will show up on the select screen that way. Probably quicker than clicking and dragging.

Oh yes, details. I love reading about Eve. Won't actually play it but the stories are brilliant. lol

Oh so you know the joys of 'reverse gravity' :D

While this is a tank thread, if you really like tossing enemies in the air, I'm gonna suggest checking out grav trollers. Wormhole will toss them as high as the war wall ledge. ;)

Want to hear something just as funny? Same exact thing happened to me with my first Controller. Leveled up, got him all decked out and yep. New Hami that weekend. Ura Hero is my secret identity. I also had that exact forum avatar years ago on the live forums.

INV/SS for getting a feel for it. Be sure and use Dull Pain before entering the mob. Use it like build up. Trust me.

6 if you have them, use mocking beratement.

Don't worry about the Psi hole, it's legend is greatly exaggerated. Psi is still governed by the same laws of def as everything, and a high melee/ranged/aoe positional def will mitigate it plenty for an inv/ss entering a fight with DP already running putting you at 3200+ hp. edit to add: Elusive Mind accolade also is very good mitigation for an inv/ss, generally invs take the most dmg from psionics on the alpha, before invinc has had a chance to saturate. Elusive Mind will give you that alpha def you are looking for to take on the big hitters like cwk or gw. https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Watchman_Badge --Self: +25% Defense(Psionic), +7.5% Resistance(Psionic)
