Ran an all Stormie MLTF with my Elec/Storm Troller. Why would I want to get rid of the repel? It's not something you're going to toggle on and leave on (usually - maybe solo?) but I found various times to use it. For sure love to turn it on at City Hall in Posi 1. 🙂 AVs who can't be repelled? Hurricane is going on!

I'd rather see Combat Jumping not detoggle with Ninja Run.

Why not just allow Frozen Armor to accept Resistance Sets?

Clarion...mez protection. Barrier...Defense/Resist. Right there, one doesn't have to feel obligated to take Clarion. Control and Melee Hybrid also give some form of Status Protection. Also, isn't there some Blaster Secondary Sets that give status resist? Not all, but some. Atomic?

I like the Scrapper inherent as is. However, is I was to make a suggestion as to how to add to it... First, Kinetic Melee's Concentrated Strike needs to be able to get some extra damage. All attacks on Scrappers, imo, should do more damage when they crit. Then, after that, maybe go the route of something similar to Concentrated Strike. When it crits, it instant recharges Power Siphon. So, what I would suggest, is when the Scrapper uses their tier 9 (or single target big hitter) something like KM's CS crit happens. Doesn't have to recharge build ups. Could auto crit the next attack for instance. But I will say, I don't feel Scrappers are any rough spot or in need of buffs. They're pretty awesome 🙂

Wasn't there a few Scrapper Secondary Sets with a taunt aura? I could swear WP, INV and Shield had a taunt aura.

Pffft...most of them (probably 99%) don't even realize they are ageless/immortal yet. 😛

lol That too!

Should I be using Explosive Arrow in ST? According to mids, it's better ST than the tier 1 and 2. Electrified Net and Glue Arrow also look to be better ST damage in Mids. Is this accurate?

Well, I'm sure when it comes down to it "It looks cool!" is what they're going for. Or one could call such instance of those extreme times of strength as being power stunts or spending that hero point. 😛 100 ton strength level, the writers are likely thinking, "Oh, well that weighs 50 tons" or some such and don't add in the other factors.

I know. I was just stating Spider-Man's as well. 🙂

Spider-Man = 3000 ton range in the mcu.

And in the MCU, I believe the math has shown he's past 25tons.

Awww...I sorta feel like I'm supposed to feel bad for most my characters being ageless (the weak immortality) by being tech/part of their powers or just truly immortal (like my main is). 😛

That's what I suggested above. Toggle Defense (3-5% All Positions...more ground covered than S/L but less % is my thought) Grant Cover (passive defense for team, none for hero, but gives defense debuff resist) *something else here* Shield Charge (spring jump level likely) Hibernate Clone, but with shield using animation.

Personal FF you can't attack with. Force of Nature has the crash. Indomitable Will is mez protection with defense to psionics. I don't recall if it can be made perma. Hiberante you can't attack or move. Which is why I'm not so sure how Shield Epic would go. Though... Toggle Defense (3-5% All Positions...more ground covered than S/L but less % is my thought) Grant Cover (passive defense for team, none for hero, but gives defense debuff resist) *something else here* Shield Charge Hibernate Clone w/ Shield

I do realize the double +RCH benefit would be nice. I do wonder if an idea would be to move Phantom Army to Tier 9 (still keep it able to me made permanent) and add in a new ability that gives Domination build up. Maybe an attack animation that conjures a phantom to single target attack the target and then disappears? Not sure if such an animation would work, as it might be sort of pet based instead of just the animation of the attack, and I'm not sure how that would work with domination, if at all.

This is a good change that should be added in when they give Propel to melee ATs in a new Epic Pool! 🙂

I would love that backpack! I had a concept in mind for an ex-Carnival of Whatever (hadn't decided Light or Shadows) but without that backpack I was just so meh on it!

Fire/WP is pretty straight forward build, but looking at the statistics, not a popular combo, likely due to concepts. WP often seen as the Natural set would likely be my guess. If you know Fire's best attacks. Then looking at other WP builds (3rd most popular WP defense set) will likely lead you to a good build for it. Go for S/L/E/N Defense. I bet one could get S/L/E/N/F/C all softcapped and a good +RCH for a good ST DPS. I personally never cared for Hasten with WP, as WP has no use for +RCH only the Primary would, so I'd try to build without Hasten in mind myself.

Yeah, but that would be more in line with a set with a Toggle Shield and then a Click Mind Link. Is there really any other Epic with dual shields like that? The other multiple buff powers are basically "Buff Stamina" on the melees.

I don't so much mind the weapon on Ice Melee (even if I took Frozen Fists over Ice Sword on my Ice/ Brute :p) but I do agree, I'd love some non weapon versions of those attacks.

I would love Illusion Control on a Dominator, just for concept reasons. As far as I know however (not a big time Dom player myself) Illusion would be terrible for Domination. So, if things had to be changed up, I'd be okay with it, as long as I got the ability to use Illusions 🙂 I've used it as a Troller back on live and I just feel it'd be more fun to use with an assault set. 🙂

Moonbeam would be more damage than Dark Blast.

I've made do in solo play with no AOE at all. I've made do in team play with no AOE at all. If you're looking to farm, yes, you'll want AOE. Yes, AOE will help clear missions faster. You want a PBAOE and natural, have you thought of Staff?
