*Renames GM Impervium to GM Mover*

Other than Linea's higher level 801 AE arcs and the ASF on relentless, is your resistance scrapper really dying more than your defense scrapper? Or are both of them essentially immortal in 99% of the game?

Although I have skipped it in prior Psi Melee builds, having Boggle confuse some extra DPS or a Surgeon to heal you instead of your enemy has to be worth something as well.

Using Bopper's calculator, however well built it may be, does not account for human beings actually playing the game. Damage doesn't come in at the same rate all the time. People avoid damage many ways, not just by defense and resist from armors. However, I agree that 45% defense is better than 75% resist. But I never have just one or the other.

I haven't tried it, but how about Psi melee? Psy attacks laugh at Unstoppable and Shield gives you the added AoE Psi lacks.

Sweeping defense changes?

I'd rather have a P2W vendor in RWZ base, but I guess I have no problem with Null being there. Isn't he a pan-dimensional being anyway? However, I don't think Null should be a base critter, pan dimensional or not. I feel that somethings should only exist in the larger world. Just like I wouldn't like Ms. Liberty and all the other Trainers and TF contacts to be base critters.

Well, yes. Everything has an opportunity cost of at least reasonable market value if sold. But when I get catalysts as drops and boosters in packs that I pay 10 mill for but get more then 10 mil out, in my head they are free.

Personally, I make a build in Mids before I even make a costume. (See MidsReborn.com) Using that as my base, I will start slotting attuned IOs (set IOs that have a floating level within the range of the set) as soon as I can, considering level and finances. I have some stuff stored in my base and I give new characters some starting cash to start buying. By the time I get to level 50 the only thing I need to do is swap in any purple sets that I may want for whatever set I used to level and use enhancement catalysts on my ATOs and WinterOs to make them Superior. And then work on incarnates and accolades. If you have a particular character you want build recommendations for, I suggest that you post that request in the appropriate AT sub forums and state your parameters -- cheap, money is no object, final, leveling, softcap, perma this or that, whatever you want.

I made a Mercs/Sonic which worked surprisingly well. The pets are much better behaved than they used to be and stayed inside the bubble most of the time. Sure, it's not as strong as a lot of other MM combos, let alone other ATs. But it performed well enough that I leveled him to 50 without much PLing and earned +3 incarnates.

I think Brute hits the sweet spot for those requirements. I'd recommend Mace/Shield or Rad as sturdy yet easy and both add extra damage. Mace can be customized to all sorts of looks and may not be as flashy as some of the new sets, but it also doesn't have gimmicks like combos or stack builders. Just bang people upside the head.

You can't have a monopoly when the supply literally just appears by magic.

Second attempt: The appropriately named Masochistic Flea - AR/Devices with Time Bomb and LRM Rocket.

Wow! Would you be interested in sharing your build and attack chain?

It takes effort and time, but you can find people that like to play like you do. My suggestion would be to put story arc teams together in Striga and Croatoa. If you can get folks to all start an arc at the beginning, everyone can get the story arc completion bonuses. Even if you don't, you get to unlock two great TFs (Hess in Striga and Katie Hannon in Croatoa) and work towards badges and accolades. At level 35 you can do the same in Rikti War Zone. Good luck!

Or you can type /quit.

Depends on the writer and how much time each character has to pre-plan.

Can I interest you in a test server with a freebies menu?

He placed a stun proc in Cloak of Fear to stack stuns with Oppressive Gloom. Sounds good; never tried it.

It needs the radius increased. It only has an 8 foot radius. That would make it more useful without making it OP https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=epic.psionic_mastery.world_of_confusion&at=defender

OK. Here we go for a first draft -- jump kick, spring jump, dark pit, time bomb, and world of confusion. I took them, but barely slotted them. It's hard to take so many "bad" powers and still slot up to be sturdy and damaging. Is that cheating?
