Without_Pause

The best way to get eyes on a set is buy posting actual suggestions in the Suggestions and Feedback forum. Even then, I wish you luck. There are sets so fundamentally underperforming they are at meme level for years. I've posted a suggestion some years ago only for none of it to be implemented. We are unfortunately at the mercy of a volunteer dev group based on their vision for the game.

A high level Tanker on lower level content can feel like cheat code. You can see this in any +4 Frostfire run. Mid 20s is still extra powers, slotting, and inspir slots. The game is old. There are simply going to be times when vets of the game get together and blow through content. I believe it will be less and less rare, but certainly there will be times where a team will get together with newer players far less slotted, experienced, or over leveled for the content and struggle in the same situation. I think within the past couple of months I got on a PUG Yin which went through it in 18 minutes. I haven't come close since.

You still aren't targeting the issue. End management isn't Elec's problem. Changing that isn't going to make it an S tier set. What any and every Res based set needs is DDR. Since that isn't happening, you are looking at improving Energize so it recovers more HP and boosts Max HP. Since it lost its damage aura, it could use having a power which increases it's damage. Any T9 which nukes your end and the end of its duration needs to be reworked. There was a time where nukes drain a person's end. That got changed and so should the T9 armors.

I'll just point out while EA has a bit of a Psy hole, you'll only really notice it soloing on higher diff settings. The things which give it genuine issues is small. I've had it stand in the middle of an x8 sized mob and go, "Yep, I can be here all day." The +Level was likely +2 or +3. I've done EA across all of the ATs which get it. I would likely rank Shield and Sr as Top tier for being unkillable with Stone, EA, and Invul as next in line. I went and looked at Linea's rankings for Tankers and that's roughly the tiers they have them in minus EA as that's not ported to Tankers yet. For Brutes, those are all top tier.

There is also the issue of does it need to be a Brute versus a Tanker. Tankers get bigger AoEs. If farming is the point, then it is worth talking about. Rad melee is ideal for generic S/L farms. Elec/rad is top tier for Tankers so even a budget build would work well.

In order to fix something, you need to point out what is wrong with it and target it. End management isn't an issue with Elec.

Bots are still rather popular, so finding a build to work with post updates is rather easy. Even if Rad isn't popular for MMs, there's still four different AT forums to look at. It took me under 10 minutes, more like 5, to find a build for Bots/rad without going to Discord. Even if outdated, it is miles better than what the OP originally posted. The OP should take a look at the build, start a new thread in the MM forum, post the old build, ask what changes need to be made to the old build, and how to incorporate the powers they picked.

Any Posi steam rolls has involved high level characters. What characters they were mattered little.

The biggest issue would be having MMs on the team as the Shadow MM get all of the pets.

I skip so much of what it does. I pop in powers, slots, and look at totals. Depending on the build, I might take 30 minutes to get one done. I can't recall how fast I did my last one, but I knew enough going in it was rather straight forward. It honestly might have taken me 15 minutes. MMs can be trickier in their slotting, and Bots are very Frankenslotting, but their slotting is well covered in the MM forum. Rad has four different AT forums to find slotting from. It shouldn't take much effort to put together both sets and then post it in the MM forum to get feedback. Also, there is the search feature. The game is old. The info you seek is likely out there.

Again, if you can use Mid's do so. I feel like every power not actively talked about needs to be reworked. Again, does the power take Acc? Then slot for it. Immobilize is a terrible thing to slot for unless you are slotted with a damage proc IO from an Immobilize set. If a power does something like Hold, then look at the Hold sets and find out what set you want to go into there because doing this piecemeal via a forum isn't the way to make a coherent build. https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Enhancement_Sets

Those set bonuses can add up as well. If a build is insanely tight, then sure, look at HOs, but I honestly don't ever slot them.

Cheaper in that once you hit 50, then sure. But you can slot DWD at 21 and at a million per those aren't really breaking the bank. They would literally be among the cheapest crafted IOs they would be slotting considering the ones they have already shown in their build. They are already slotting ATOs, PVP IOs, and Purples.

I'm done when I stop playing them. I currently have only a few who are looking at doing Arcane's list, but with Vet Level 50. The goal is to get all of them 50, and then play those so hitting higher Vet levels will simply happen.

Indirectly. The person is on the rather poor side. HOs might be asking a lot to slot. For RI, I would simply 4-slot Dark Watcher's Despair while skipping Recharge\End and Chance for -Recharge.

You don't take it. I have a Ice/stone Brute. Very few things solo give it an issue and that's not even fully T4ed. FYI, I soloed Council at +4/x8 before 50 so that means +5s were involved. I didn't even need Ice Patch.

Black Scorpion arc with the defeat all involving the Crey just before unlocking the Patron powers. It was the Scorpinoid's who were +4. I was Level 36 and they were Level 40.

Preventive Medicine.

Also, asking for build advice would be even better done in the forum for Masterminds.

You should download Mid's and use that if possible. If you 2-slot a power with Common IOs, just using two slots for it and adding in 5 IO Boosters to each essentially have them perform equal to the power being 3-slotted. 3-slotted is the max you want to slot in a specific power given boosting a single trait. If a power takes Acc, you very likely need to slot for it. Toggles to a default need End Reduc in them. Unless a power is on Auto, it to a default needs some End Reduc.

Phant doesn't play nice since it has KB. You could skip casting it in a farm, Outside of Fire/kin Controller or Corr, I might be tempted to do a Ice/kin Corr since the slows will offer some mitigation and you can do ST damage to minimize aggro if need be. Stick a Ragnarok: Chance to KD in Ice Storm to further help.

The most indirect AT you will get will be a MM. Demon/dark seems like a no brainer.

Earning the slots feels quick enough even at 100% XP to where I'm not sure I care enough about the difference between 200% and 300%. I have a Vet Level 60 who should be able to get a level per tunnel run or at least close enough. If I duo boxed through an arc, I would think I would have everything unlocked or close to it. Let's say that's an hour's worth of work at 100%. If a server offers 200%, then yeah, that's not really worth worrying about.

If Stalker is an option, I would look at Sentinels as well even if they are a range class. They get Instant Regeneration versus Quick Recovery and End is manageable enough in this game. Outside of that, go Brute since they have the biggest HP pool.

I still don't get how this hasn't been fixed, or even the fact it was added in at any point.
