The issue with doing AE missions for the sake of leveling and not farming is the rewards have been peeled back due to farming so leveling is slower. I still find going through regular missions at a decent diff setting while solo is more tolerable than any farming. I'll take soloing RWZ, Cim, or DA at +2-+4 and x8 with the Banker day job accolade over repeated farming. I've gotten a Vet level from doing a single rather difficult Cim mission which is roughly what I get from doing a single tunnel mission with EBs. To be fair, the Cim mission also had multiple EBs. DA with its ability to generate such an ease for builds to solo at +4x8 is a virtual goldmine. Red side also doesn't lack content to challenge players.

It can be a nice source of extra AoE damage when you add in the Control Incarnate since it doubles containment damage.

HT's -Regen FTW.

AH isn't as great as it used to be, but there are things out there which can be flipped for still decent profit. I have a pre-Page 5 build for my Rad/fire and I don't really ever use my heal on a map which I try to position myself to take on as much as I can all the time. The map has EBs in it as well. It's a Page 5 road tunnel map by Xtomic. A map without EBs will be faster, but I prefer doing fewer runs.

I'm rather ignorant about the minis and don't really ever see them on teams. So take that for what it is worth.

I pop a respec at 27 and 50. 27 is when you essentially can slot the best of the lower level IOs. You get 5 respecs as you level, so I have done more than just the two.

The salvage bit is just a character who can solo at x8. There are many characters who can do it. You can make a regular build for them and not even worry about a farming build. You were doing on Brute. That would work.

If I'm reading City of Data correctly, the damage is very minor. I wouldn't slot for it unless you are doing so as a mule. One Recharge should be enough to cover that aspect.

You might need to see a doctor about that. 😉

If one does a search on YouTube for Mids Reborn, there are three videos within the past 1-8 months. There is a 7 video series covering it as well. While the series is two years old, it still should be good enough to get going. I honestly use a sliver of what the tool does.

I feel like many have chugged brain bleach in regards to at least one of them. 😉

I should clarify and say he's had multiple runs, but the one I am referencing is this one. https://www.avclub.com/how-did-hawkeye-become-marvel-s-best-comic-1798235313

Because that's lost DPS. Skipping a nuke at level 26 before teams start steamrolling +4 content? Yeah, that matters.

I look at the final build like this. It would raise an eyebrow, but that's about it. The more correct answer is I hardly team, I'm on speed runs for TFs so any build matters little, I likely won't even bother to look at the build, and there are very good odds I'm in front of said character even on a squishy because I play aggressive so I'm not even paying attention to what they are doing. As mentioned, there are going to be numerous teams doing +4 where a few players can carry the rest. Hell, if I had a dime for every under leveled character on a +4x8 PI team, I could put some cheese on some Whoppers. Again, concept builds are fine. They can generate blowback depending on the build. I would lean on rolling a build on the RP sever as they would likely be more forgiving.

It followed his comic.

Also, saying Hulk has had his MCU movie is really shoehorning that aspect. Technically it is true, but that's more like Marvel sweeping pre MCU things into their stash even when it wasn't theirs, see Daredevil.

Since it has been mentioned, Hawkeye did have his own show.

Slotting the Achilles' Heel: Chance for Res Debuff in NB is the last place I would put it. You want that in an AoE as mentioned above.

I had a Level 50 Rad/sonic on Live. RI and EF were taken asap. RI has a known issue with animation time. At least now the toggles last past when the target has been arrested as compared to much of the time on Live where that wasn't true. RI also enables easier use of the Vet powers you can get at the S.T.A.R.T. vendor, and these are vastly better than Boxing. You have Neutrino Bolt which is practically on auto with any reasonable recharge. There is no realistic reason for using Boxing. You even have RI slotted with a -Res Proc for an AoE Debuff. I would want that happening asap even if the toggle itself goes away. EF with Defender levels of -Res? Inject that into my veins. In case it matters, I've played /rad a number of times, and my current attempt at it is 41, so yes, I have played it. I barely justify Boxing on a Brute. Also note I soloed my Rad/sonic on Live so yes I am rather aware of what those toggles do for the build.

So someone who hasn't been a sidekick to Captain American in the MCU but a partner and has had his name in a MCU movie and TV show is a total D-lister. Welcome to the internet, where everything is a A-lister or D-lister. Why do other listers even try to exist? 😉

The Winter Solider character will be 20 years old next year. The idea that Bucky is a sidekick in the MCU is a bit amusing considered the OG Cap is dead, and TWS has every right to be Cap as the Falcon does. No one would blink or be outraged if TWS picked up and used Cap's shield.

If you aren't even taking the two best DPA ST attacks and skipping the nuke, I have genuine questions about why you are even playing a Corr.

Understandable from someone who has soloed to 50 a number of builds without using 2x XP boosters. Elude is there as a mule if need be. On a Scrapper, I use Shadow Meld as my 'Oh crap' button, but to be honest it ends up being a mule as well.

As always, it is your build and concept, but I would be stunned if you didn't get flack. Concept builds is one thing, but skipping the last three powers in Fire is basically begging me to not 1-star the character. Doms can get Sleet in their epic. I might have been willing to try the concept as a Dom instead. Note, I have seen /cold Corrs not take the shields and said nothing. But if I see the listed powers and don't see you using the shields, that's an instant red flag, and you're being carried on a team in a similar way to a 'pure healer,' Again, play how you want, but the question is "Am I going to get blowback for this build?" Absolutely 100%.

There is the Beta server as well. It is little more than doing a respec on a build to see what one plays like. City of Data gives me a starting point for DPA and animation times overall. Another aspect to not taking all of the attacks is you have more slotting for the ones you do take.
