Looks like it would be pretty fun, I think I will try one myself. Thanks for the inspiration.

I ended up not having anywhere near the haste for the - Martial Arts (4) 62.45 ['Storm Kick', 'Gloom', 'Storm Kick', 'Crippling Axe Kick'] - attack chain. I ended up changing my build around and moving over to an attack chain of ['Storm Kick', 'Cobra Strike', 'Storm Kick', 'Crippling Axe Kick'] Which I think looks & feels better then it did with Gloom. The Gloom animation on shield leaves a lot to be desired. It also let me get another FF into my AOE powers. All and all I am pretty satisfied with the build. Will probably develop two sets of Incarnates so I can have one set for defense and one for offense. I can see why Hjarki said this combo works better on brutes. I wish I could fit Warrior's Provocation in the build somewhere. I also feel like endurance can be a problem as a fresh 50 so I have no idea how people can take the musculature incarnate. Maybe Ageless will fix all the endurance problems so I can not need cardiac as much. Thanks again for the help. Build I ended up with.

I was planning on using Thunder Kick but I just updated the build and un-slotted it. I am a bit worried about exemplaring down though. In the empty power slot I have a 49 I'll either put in combat jump to be able to hit incarnate defense cap and to slot my last LOTG. I may possibly throw in warriors provocation and jostle around some powers so I can pick it up at a lower level. I guess it depends on if I find myself doing more low or high level content. I'm not sure how successful I can be doing low level stuff with this character. I might have to put some slots in Thunder Kick just to have some sort of attack chain at low levels. I kind of wish I could get some more toxic/psi out of the build but I can bring myself to drop the FF in dragons tail. Thanks again for the advice. I'll probably come back and post what I end up using as my final build after I get to put it through its paces for awhile.

Sorry for the double post I was expecting my rotation to be Storm Kick', 'Gloom', 'Storm Kick', 'Crippling Axe Kick' I got my information off of this post. Is the addition of gloom not worth the bit of DPS?

I moved some things around. I'm still on the fence about taking the AOE taunt. I don't know how much millage I will get out of it. I have put in Darkest night. I had no idea the damage de-buff was so high. I have thoroughly enjoyed the tanker so far. After I get him squared away I will probably roll the combo on a brute to see how it compares. The build is still kind of a work in progress. I'm just short of hitting 40 so I still have some time to get it figured out. Thanks for the help. I put in most of the suggestions from Hjarki & tellania. It looks a lot better now. Are the Blistering Cold & Superior Avalanche resists not worth as much? Hopefully this export works. | Copy & Paste this data into Mids Reborn : Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1422;695;1390;HEX;| |78DA6593594F135114C7EF74A656A0652B5B5964874261A0881A57A4D0569626241| |05F9B49B9C284495B6786A88F26E2F2EA8B3EB93EF9E207F08328EA839F80C53D3E| |987A98F3079A3849FBBBF3BFE7DCF33F77EECDDC9E0DBE4DDF9D124A70C6321C27B| |B62E437A4EDCF186B664ED0134A58466EA32BB169DD32EC8D00291D1C929D953764| |DE91FAF2BA29ADD5C3D7086633D29252CF18B66B1A5676DA761D115A2A142C3D65A| |EADBB667EADC67B5B94C6AAB49D75B358E9BD2F17A55CADF7862BB442B160BB866B| |16F2CDC9A299D313F6A62BB3CB854D2B9B311C57DA775AC8501FFD6643F4A71C182| |EF9452D0DE29AF035823F548FDA4FF00FF3C4DF836E3471B549E02909D14A885788| |E9262C47EB29EF11FF8179721BFCC8ACFC047E6626C98B0A2FEA2E6BF57BCC866FE| |05766D377709F99A25C3FE76A7EF86E81EF96DFCCD63EF678C834E50438470462AC| |CD90FF0AD6948A9B3E2FAFDD615EA3F82AA5D28BAFEAE6781F7DD910D6086D719C4| |A5A0D6B6ACD18D76E8F334F4D8213D8538AAD436CDD3CE652CCAE3930CD4C93B730| |F6367C896B759D67765F002F829799BDF03447DE1BE1B311DFB78E6A37A376336AF| |7A2762F6AF72D3017283F82DA917B1ACF6D81F799030FC087E02366927CB771AEDA| |F686FD0CBE069F832F9961F2D4C19E7C1DCF581B7A05BE60CE93974E9CBB4EF492A| |21A3D383B3D03881F640E47C1217098391263E6A8C57EF4D63F8EB95150678E8E81| |717084F74512A2A81B9DE0B9B1D3E0247886193F0B9E637E090A11E3BA4A0CE7290| |E2E528F3A7AD40F3E12DDB706DA9B7168E3E87B483BBABFA576ADEC3E96E8118BFF| |294BDAD1FD148AA7ECD0815670329451AEBE5BAE4559DB3BD634659E06839A0876F| |32E04AFB39BEA2BECB47A87F5FDE31C5579C25DD73EF679EBD5EE6B1EEB7FF12979| |D7436067A5A9F0F178A481C6E8F06999BE5D36FE07CAE6D2E1| |-------------------------------------------------------------------|

This is the first time I have tried a tanker so I was hoping to get some advice about the build I am going to run. I am not sure if I'm missing anything obvious, or if I am missing abilities that would be good for a novice tanker that a experienced tanker may not need. I'll probably put off picking out incarnates until I have a better idea of what I'm missing. Unless some are just staples of the AT. I'm mostly wondering about the following. Do I need to place taunt I/Os into against all odds? Is it OK to skip eagle claws & darkest night? Have I over-slotted Health/Stamina? And if the order I have taken the powers will be OK for doing low level content later? Thanks for any help I can get, I appreciate it. Edit: Updated build with some of the suggestions worked in.

I was planning to take a shot at a SM/SD scrapper, but before I did I was wondering if anything would be a better fit for savage melee. I was going to try these out because I have never played either power before.

This is what I'm using for my Merc/Thermal. I'm still low level so this is not tested yet. The idea is to have capped ranged defense and use the knockdown to keep mobs away from me and my pets. I had a hard time capping ranged defense, and I'm pretty new to using Mids.

Also if you drop Bonfire pick up Temporary Invulnerablility and move a slot out of tough you can 6 slot Temporary Invulnerablility with Gladiators Armor and have capped S&L resists.

Thanks for the advice. I'll probably stick to the first build for now. However, I didn't even know about all the force of will and sorcery power pools. Did I miss when those got added or were they not a thing in live? Thanks again for the advice.

I'm building a Dominator for the first time, so I'm not sure about a couple of power picks. Its a Electric/Psi/Mu Build. I have it narrowed down to two different builds Build one has 48.2 Negative, Energy, & Ranged defense. With 75% S&L resists, but takes maneuvers, tactics and vengeance. For additional defense and a place to put a couple of LOTGs. Dom is at 80 sec. Build two has a bit over 46.5 Negative/Energy & 45.3 R defense. Also has 75% S&L resist, but takes heal self and other, & probably combat medic. Dom is at 87 sec. These are both with Agility Core. Would a Dominator find the healing ability more useful, or would it be better to have a bit more wiggle room with domination and defenses. Also I normally play a Fortunata so I may be going a bit overboard with the defenses. I generally duo if that makes a difference. We don't always have a heal available. Thanks for any advice you could give, as I have never even attempted a Dominator.
