If you're dying as a tanker at low levels, you may have the difficulty too high. A Shield tanker really doesn't begin to shine until you have Deflection/Battle Agility/True Grit/Active Defense fully slotted.

The new bubble should act the same as old Force Bubble PROVIDED you don't slot a KB->KD in it. If you do, the force bubble repel is disabled.

No, but they did say "all the TFs" so that would logically mean including hard mode. If the OP is not including hard mode, then my suggestion would be to pick a primary that sounds like fun then pick a secondary that sounds fun. If your primary doesn't include a self heal, I'd probably lean toward Dark or Water Blast but that's not even necessary.

I'm not super familiar with how AE works, but I think there is a way to mark an enemy as a named boss via the objective window, this might solve your problem. if you can't solve it, then I support this suggestion.

I like how the OP is literally thumbs downing every post.

I'll 2nd shield for charging, pair it with Savage or Electric melee for a second charge like ability. As for buffing, kin, time, and nature do a good job at buffing both yourself and your teammates.

Domination has mez protection to but it is not permanent out of the box.

That would be Echo the Dolphin, a Sega Genesis game.

it makes me sad that you don't keep vengeance in your tray.

I just wish I knew as much about things I haven't tried.

Dark Blast or Dual Pistols would be my choice for secondary. Dark adds to-hit debuffs to your defense while Dual Pistols can use chemical rounds to lower enemy damage. Repulsion Field works like a combination of the two powers it replaced. Just don't slot a KB->KD in it and you can still use it just like Force Bubble. I haven't gotten a chance to try Dampening Bubble yet, but it seems promising.

If all you want is an echo chamber, this forum ain't it. It seems this thread started with some constructive criticism, but you couldn't handle that. Remember: constructive feedback good; attacking people who disagree with you bad. Think about which category you've put yourself in.

You have basics of a power set but no values. How are we supposed to know that this set is weaker to fire/cold other than you said it in a later post? Also, what does Mercury do? Where is the taunt aura that tanks/brutes would get? What strength does the set have to make up for its weakness to fire/cold? What truly makes this set unique that a recoloured Invulnerability/willpower/shield can't accomplish? Finally, attacking people is not the best strategy to get someone to agree with you.

If I'm reading this correctly, the OP, and at least a few other people, are complaining about a QOL change that doesn't have to be utilized... If you really want to, you can still take your powers at the levels you used to. I... don't understand the problem.

Are you comparing Arctic Air, a primary power to WoC, an ancillary power? WoC can be useful but really needs you to stay in melee for the confuse to stick and is best when your set has another confuse power in it to stack.

I would be for this except for two things 1. Sometimes taking both invisibility powers is a good thing 2. Illusion *really* doesn't need a buff

I like MA because you can layer some serious defense on top of your resistances. Only problem is no DDR.

I could have sworn tornado is limited to 1 at a time. I know you can have multiple Lightning Storms out

Not sure if this is a bug or if its intentional. I just logged on to see just how "mini" the mini mode costume power was and... my cape stayed at full size even though I was mini-fied.

My two favorite Beam characters that I've played are Beam/Traps Corr and Beam/Invulnerability Sentinel. Here are their builds. Beam-Invul Sentinel.mxd Beam-Traps Corr.mxd

I'm assuming you meant blaster and can, in which case... They really can't stand on their own without a heavily IO'd build, which you can also do with Controllers and Dominators

I always chuckle when this happens, especially since (for me at least) when it does happen, it leads you to the doors to the AE balcony instead of the ground level entrance.

I mean, if you wanted to just have it work for when the toggle is off, sure that would likely be easier, but my interpretation of the OP was that they wanted it to be on their back whenever they weren't in combat.

There are 2 technical hurdles I see with this 1. If you had a weapon as your attack set they would need a way to prevent both from being on your back. I think this is a limit of what they can currently do 2. Shields are always drawn when you have the toggles activated, so the devs would have to put in some kind of "in combat" detection and then figure out how to have players be able to choose between "always drawn" and "redraw-able"
