How many people go, "Okay. I just entered this zone. Let me grab these plaques before I do anything else"? I just finished getting the Authority Badge just the other day. I had been to IP before of course, but still had to run to IP to go get that plaque I had never really be in the area of before. Not to mention, there's those plaques I might've read before when I hit a zone, because you pass by them and think on it (Talos by the statue, plaque, comes to mind) but when I was actively going for Authority, I realize, I hadn't stopped at it on that character, even though I flew passed it many times (even had the exo badge nearby already). So, going to zones for no other reason but to read a plaque, seems like it's likely to be the case, for most of the player population. I doubt most have an add-on for nearby badges/plaques (I believe there is one, I just don't have it).

Well, you can go red side and switch it up, as it sounds like you are always going blue (note: I said "sounds" :p) Don't know why one would have to move things out of the echo zones though.

Okay, seems the multiple Impervious Skins won't help Regen and I realized that I could replace a +HP Bonus with a +Regen Bonus, which seems the better option, given that Dull Pain will Max Out the HP. | Copy & Paste this data into Mids Reborn : Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1423;678;1356;HEX;| |78DA5D93594F5A4114C7E7C2B508B854D1AA4516B12A825CA1491FBA3FD4A555494| |C49FBD6D8AB4E919400014CEA633F42B7F4A54BD2E5B51FA4EBD7E8663569E2435F| |E8E1FEFF22F126F09B3967CE9973FE33937D30D7F561F1E15565F45C2BDAB5DA5A6| |EA36A572ABADA99DDAEDBF542B9A49A9F477EC143D75A5617B5B6E64BBA9ADFC124| |D4F2CDE97BBA54D3D64D9DD7B20029BA57CBE5A2B550C86FD50BA5BC1FB36273DAE| |B8C57B4BDA9ABB5AD42C5E7CC7315AD3747E62B850D2B57B78BF7256FAEBC5D5CCB| |DAB5BAAEEE0C4B3513F27B91903FA3595FA3437D742B953195F989FC0C9EF8427E0| |53BBF81739E56AC5B2DC9604A7CB70CC737731BCC5C11864CF54AF631B0D6341E99| |8ECFF7987C02763D259F81F392DFCD18F768734FAFEA099161F064848C820B12D38| |11857C73EF2F41F80B3CF5D0E5D1E9C86AC519E867C6A51A65EAAE0FD8EEEFA7F80| |033FC95FE0A9DFE42EE897583FB3F983B0F589AD9B9577EFC136FC971C8032B3835| |46819F6EB12D3CB985E769B60B709763BC36E53ECF68DA8DAC798BEF32EC776FA02| |79111CBD445E46F737649F004F2D3084D30987C0E9046BB2C080AC1DC45A63F09CC| |074AB30E916DF10F30C65504FF82C7A8986711BA231F0ADD439427D47EEE234A236| |38B64E6E909BE0B80697649F20F43583C77499A12EA963BA981213E22D08F9D0CB7| |80F49DDDF494D116A1799844667A6C838390D4E26A15DF36AC418134BD1678153B3| |649ACC202626B54C50C389A4623E70457C71F4E68AD3367D48D6F95AEA4C225E255| |F4ACE80A99A57D3A2CDFA877D9625579AB6F41EB48B98AD17DA183515BF46732AB7| |7EE5C86B280FDF86175C35E992D586B37AD7D77AC1CA48A1C63FEDB6386C7BEDB63| |1DC87FD239BCBE0AB741D7B95EF13ADFA1ACB324E73BC2AB119F670A76D6CB78DD7| |DBC6FF01AD10CCB3| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| Wasn't sure if I should go with roughly 4-5% more Resists or Move those IOs in Resilience to attacks as Damage Procs.

Okay. I like the Illumination Effect. I'd like something better for the pet. I think I'd go in this direction with it, which I think keeps it inline with what was given. (Click Single Target) Ray of Light: -ToHit, Sleep/Immobilize (Mag 4), Special (Apply Illumination), Damage (Click Single Target) Dazzling Glow: -ToHit, Sleep/Hold (Mag 3), Special (Apply Illumination), Damage (Click Targeted AOE) Radiating Ties: -ToHit, Immobilize (Mag 3), Special (Primary Target takes extra damage/+1 Mag Immobilize if Illuminated), Damage (Click Targeted AOE) Twilight: -ToHit (-5%), -Perception (-90%) (Toggle PBAOE) Blinding Halo: -ToHit, -Stealth, +Perception, Special (Damage Only to Illuminated Targets - No damage to targets not illuminated) (Click PBAOE) Incandescent Eruption: Knockdown, Disorient, Damage (Minor), Special (+1 Mag Stun, Extra Damage) (Click Targeted AOE) Prismatic Field: -ToHit, Hold, Damage, Special (Primary Target takes extra damage/+1 Mag Hold if Illuminated) (Targeted AOE) Luminous Distortion: Foes Attract around Targeted Enemy, Chance for Confuse (Mag 3 - ##% Chance), Special (Illuminated Targets have increased chance for Confuse) (Click Targeted Location Pet) Holographic Distraction: Create 3 Stationary Images that have taunt auras and taunting attacks. They do not move. Moved Twilight to Tier 4, as it's the same as Smoke, which is Tier 4. I like the idea of all those Targeted AOEs and needing the primary target of the AOE to have Illumination for it to work, instead of just target something else and if they're in the AOE, extra. The Toggle PBAOE being the exception of course. As for, is this to powerful or not, I don't know honestly.

Mids needs fixed! 😛

Hmmm...Mids is having the Regen stack.

This build also has more +RCH, though I still didn't get that last second off of Hasten. 😞

It looks like you doubled up on Fire Armor, from your posted builds. However, for Scrapper, I'm going to suggest EM/Shield Scrapper!

Should note, Impervious Skin IO doesn't look to be Unique, so could be slotted multiple times.

Could do what I've done with saved costumes. "Brand X Hero Costume" "Brand X Britney Spears Costume" "Brand X X-Men Evo Rogue Costume" etc etc etc Then you can go through your saved costume list and know.

What is the max regen?

Mouse over the IO and hit the + key. Then click on it.

Yes.

And as a note, don't attune Purple IOs. PvP IOs (if you use them) shouldn't generally be attuned either, and just use level 50 ones. That's because Purple and PvP IOs would when exempt down all the way to lvl 7. Made the mistake on the PvP IO ones myself not knowing that, so passing that bit on 🙂

This. Boost them to +5 (not the Procs, that does nothing) on at least some of those enhancements (like the Recharge IOs in Hasten and the Enhancements with Recharge in Energy Transfer).

I have no problem with how the Scrapper Critical Strikes works right now. Scrappers with the inherent before there was an inherent 😛

I wouldn't double Recharge Enhance Build Up. I would just slot the Proc and move those two slots else where. The Performance Shifter Proc might as well be in Stamina, so you get the set bonus with the PS End Mod in Stamina. +5 some of those Enhancements (Hasten and Energy Transfer). I'd try and get Energy Transfer down in recharge time (I believe it's 2.77s arcanatime) so you can Energy Transfer (long) > Total Focus > Energy Transfer > Bone Smasher > Zapp > Repeat and sometimes get a that long ET, into a fast ET 🙂

A lot of brave heroes have been in cower in terror stories. Though, it's not generally cower in terror of their enemies, while instead, a power inducing effect, which is what is being used on the character. Like an illusionist bringing out the hero's worst fear. Or a psychic digging deep into the heroes psyche. It is not however a "I'm cowering in fear because I'm surrounded by criminals!" There is status resist set bonuses and IOs. So the hero gets hit with the illusion/fear inducing/psychic power and shrugs it off quick.

Revive (and possibly all Self Rez Powers) Passive When you hit 1 HP or Going to die on hit. You automatically regain 50% of your health (You can enhance it for better health return). Power then goes on normal cool down (300 seconds in the case of Revive). If dead it can be used as a click power to self rez at the same amount of health (50% unless enhanced). Basically one big passive heal that activates when you're about to die!

Resilience: Resist All w/ Extra Toxic Resist (What?! I just feel Regen should be very Toxic Resist-y concept wise!) MoG: Resist/Defense All Integration: Throw in exotic Resists (Slow/Debuff/Whatever)

I don't see why Brutes need to be at 90% like Tanks. No reason they couldn't be put to 85%

I always felt that Brutes should have their resist caps lowered.

It doesn't need changing. It's a lvl 45-50 TF that allows you to take lower level people. 😛

I feel this is likely due to how you have your scrapper slotted. I want Regen improved a bit myself, but having played an IOed out WP Scrapper, it can be built to be extremely durable.

I was thinking on that! All the talk of Brutes and the resist caps, and outside of teams with buffs, how often do they hit those caps? 😛 I pretty much hit the caps on my Elec/Elec Brute, but I never felt Energize every 39 seconds was fast enough. 😛
