I like the idea of Rage as a toggle.

What if we rebuilt, as mentioned, from the ground up? I think that if Super Strength was redesigned combining some of the comments made by @venetiasilver, @Warshades, and @PeregrineFalcon, it could be amazing. As mentioned, almost all of SS is about getting Footstomp, KoB, and Rage. We're going to put Rage in the corner for now, and ignore him. We should bring all of the crappy powers up to a decent level, and then look at Rage again. Nothing too crazy. I'm not a numbers guy, so I'll leave that up to someone else. Looking back at Rage, with the adjustments we made earlier, it's no longer a crutch that we use to keep us on our feet. Now it's something fancy that can be brought out at a dinner party. Now, it only gives around 50% damage buff. That's ok though. Remember, we buffed the other powers. It still gives the same tohit buff as before, but now it_______! These are just some random ideas. (-recharge in foe and +recharge on self, -res, +damage proc, boosts secondary effects of all powers)

Can we get it for Scrapperd and Stalkers?

TL;DR!!! @Sovera Thanks for providing both builds. I decided to go with the Triple fire tank. I'll start him tomorrow. I'm also going to start my new Sentinel. A triple fire. Would you mind offering any guidance on building a Triple Fire Sentinel?

RISE, OH FIRE ARMOR POST!!!! Ok, now that it has been properly necroed, I have a question. When is the last time you ran a pure fire build?

I'd like to thank everyone for their assistance. I have some homework to do.

Ok, I'm finally ready to learn more about procs. Is there a guide somewhere on how they work and how to build for them? Like, is there a certain accuracy and recharge speed you want in your build, or the powers themselves? How to choose which powers to proc? Should you proc along the way, or wait until you get to 50?

I must have missed it in the previous posts but, what time does this take place?

I'm not going to summon anyone, but thank you both, Zect and Plvrizr. I now have a template for earning the inf for my Rad/SS. He's been setting at 48 with just generic IO's for close to a year. I first rolled him because that was the new king of farming back then. I do have a question, though, as I come for playing mostly Brutes and Scrappers. How is the ST damage? When I solo AV's, I normally do them set at +2. I'm fine with with doing them at +0 or +1.

I had a FM/BIO and got him up to about 24 before I scrapped him. (Ha Ha, I scrapped a Scrapper.) He was tons of fun. I had just watched a Ben 10 marathon with my kids, and I realized I could make Swampfire in CoX... Ok, I'm rerolling.

It's the shield itself. I once had a 50 Elm/Shield Scrapper. I know it's a little thing, the way the body moves when the toon is carrying a shield, but it kills it for me. Kind of like Stone Armor. I'd love to play one, but I hate the aesthetics. Yes, even the crystal one turned to look as transparent as it can.

This is perfect! It looks like the only actual expensive things are the ATO's.

I huess I could roll up a toon on Victory. I'm currently having a case of Altitis, so that shouldn't be a problem.

I wanna do this one day...

Hi all, I started an Elec/Shield Stalker, then I remembered why I don't make shield toon. With that said, however, I am wanting to keep going with Elec Melee. I'm thinking of going Invuln because it was one of my favorite Brutes. I'm just not sure how the resistance works with Stalkers. And yes, I'm aware that Invuln is a Res/Def hybrid set. Which other armor sets would you recommend, and why? Are there any that just synergizes with with Elec? P.s. No Stone Armor either. I just can't stand the aesthetics.

Super Strength for Stalkers!!!

Thanks for reminding me that I never watched this. And now I have to make a Kin melee toon.

So, I finally got a blaster past 22, and I am having an absolute, wait for it, BLAST! I have been toying around with hover blasting, but I want to mix it up in melee range a little as well. Primary will absolutely be Ice, as it is what the character concept is based off of. I am thinking of either Ice or Energy as a secondary. I would like this to be an all around type build. I don't need to farm, but good AoE damage is nice. I do enjoy soloing AV's on my Scrappers and Br00ts, but not necessarily. I plan on running contact/radio mishes after I get out of Outbreak, until I can run TF's. At 22 I will get some lvl 25 IO's, and just equip these until 32 or so, when I will start slotting IO sets. Of course, I want to be exemp friendly, as well. Would it be a better idea to start slotting IO sets earlier? With the desire to blap, what secondary would you choose, and why? Would you just slot attuned enhancements? Which defense types do I need to focus on? Are there any skippable powers? Is frost breath any good? Edited to add: AS I mentioned previously, this is a toon where concept is king, so I would like TP, Combat TP, hasten and Superspeed as mandatory for concept. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hey all! After coming back from a break, I finally decided to try some non melee toons, and I'm honestly having a blast. I've already gotten a Blaster, Controller, and a Dominator all to the low 30's in just a few days. Now, however, I want to try out a different AT. Altitis can be a pain, sometimes. I'm stuck. I know I want to do decent damage, but I also want to buff, de-buff, and heal. All from range. I want to hover, help my teammates, and feel like I'm helping to kill, as well. Which AT and powersets would you choose, and why? I am interested in Elec, Energy, and Ice as far as attack set goes.

I agree with everything said here. I still wish they'd add some splash damage to incandescent Strike.

I'm liking some of these ideas. Thunderstrike is the attack you're thinking of. Maybe, lol. Honestly, I wish they had done this during the revamp of EM, instead of turning Stun into Power Crash.

I think I am going to go either Elec or Inv as a brute, and save Fire Armor for a tank. Do you still have to take the stealth type power in EA to softcap defenses? I hate having characters I can't see, lol.

Thank you, I will have a look at this after after I recover from this evenings social engagement.

If I did go Elec, is it alright to just build for Res only, or do you need to chase the Softcap? The only res set I have ever done both on is Inv, for I think fairly obvious reasons.
