Force Redux

For the three toggles I like one LotG def/Global recharge, and two slots anything else Def/End and Def, depending on whatever bonus you want. Typically Gift of the Ancients for me for the 2% recovery boost. I typically do not slot super reflexes for any other set bonuses using just a regular crafted IO is for recharge for practice brawler or one or two crafted IOs for the passives. I save most of my other slots for the secondary attacks, and other powers such as ranged attacks and epic sets or utility powers such as a heal or an imobilize or things like that. Super reflexes is literally the easiest set to slot for the most benefit, and uses the least slots do so. As mentioned above you can pursue other set bonuses such as resistance, regeneration and endurance reduction. I find I do not need heals Super reflexes if I have my base resistances strong enough, with the help of a few procs here and there for survivability. Literally you can stand in a group of mobs watching your health go down to about a third or a quarter and then because of the passive resistance increases in super reflexes your health meter generally stops ight there because you have 90% resistance which is essentially multiplying your regeneration rate by 10. You can carry a few extra large heals inspirations on the side for the rare occasion anything else actually bothers you. Tanker super reflexes is love 💕

Omg, this is the Snarky we all know. ChatGPT is boss!

It's not consistent behavior between primary sets?

Easy slotting, no IOs needed for SR version: Each of your three toggles gets 2 Defense Buffs and one EndRed Each of the passives get 2 DefBuff Status clicky gets 1-2 recharges depending on how fast you want it to recharge and overlap. Skip Elude. Quickness gets one slot Fly or Run, depending on how you travel. If you go Invention sets, you can get a bit of extra mileage with the same slots, and even one slot the passives. SR is very forgiving.

This please.

Halloween Girl. Necro/Dark MM. Peanut butter n jelly , just works so well together. Also fun and thematic. Chiller Frost. Ice/Ice blaster. Great damage, lots of controls for a blaster. Winter themed charters are also fun and have great visuals. Cherenkova. Rad/Rad tanker. Great all-rounder, tough as hell, teams can visually track me on cave missions easily 😃 Dr. Orchid. Plant/Nature controller. Super great support toon, can still solo well, easy to play no funky mechanics or restrictions. Mechanista. Robots/FF MM. Toughest character outside my tankers, thematic, effective, can farm missions in AE while I am distracted.

I'd rather my sentinels kept their mobility with no tradeoffs. They are well balanced now.

You can kinda match the robot armor color... But yeah, can't customize it. But hell, it can be the same material, but a different color. No need to limit yourself!

Seen a couple folks that everlasting who are playing as very feminine men and they do use the female body setting and this is noted in their bio. One of my characters is a female Mech operator and yes one of the costumes is huge only to represent the Mech, so sometimes concept is working around the existing technology.

If bruiser taunt ever became a thing, clearly the idea would be to have it as a toggle power that could be activated or deactivated at will. Kind of like dual pistols ammunition flavors

I will always recommend Demons/Dark. See my guide stickied to the top of this forum is you like 🙂. But as mentioned above, demons go great with anything so theme and looks are always important! Edit: I saw you went with Pain, solid choice! I have one as a Hellraiser themed cenobite!

Would love to see taunt on the bruiser. But lower mag then on a brute or tanker so they don't foul up a team's taunter

Just going to add, welcome to Homecoming, welcome to Masterminds, and also welcome to Necro/Dark, a terrific combo. Maybe my guide (in my signature, also pinned to the top of this forum) would help as well?

FWIW, Force Field now does some -Resist debuffs on Force Bomb and Repulsion Bolt, plus it has the debuff power mitigation/protection in Dampening Bubble. Also, repulsion field doens't suck the blue bar dry, so it is very easy to keep foes at a distance. Works quite nicely with ranged sets like Robots or Mercs. FF isn't all Defense these days, though it is still it's calling card.

I think I remember that book...8 heads tall was "heroic", IIRC.

Status protection on FF is always great... Especially if you exempt down and lose access to Clarion.

I see I'm not the only one to cut back on the default Rob Liefeld skyscraper legs...

El Super is not for everyone 😃

Please accept my thanks as well @Underfyre

Nice to see you back @Sunsette 🙂🙂

Ninjutsu recommended, or Super Reflexes. I like defense on sentinels. I like resist-based sets on Tankers (or brutes) due to their larger health pool. That said, you really can make anything work well if it fits concept, aesthetic, and you put some work/influence into it and manage your play style/tactics.

I like it! Ty @biostem, I just tweaked it to a shorter version of the short, and perfecto! 🙂

Phantasmal Force mastermind. Six identical-seemimg versions of oneself. Based off of Illusion Control's Phantom Army. Mix of melee and ranged, using elemental attacks. MM attacks are elemental too. Mix of resists and defense. The T7 summons a bunch of phantasmal clones that chain around attacking things (smashing into them) or healing minions/MM (reintegration), depending on what they target.

Hi folks, looking for the costume gurus to help bring something to life. I have a character, Rising Moon, who is a Korean super heroine (super reflex/martial arts Tanker) who relocated to Paragon with W.I.S.D.O.M., but is not a part of that group. I feel rather 'blah' about my costume which is white spandex with a blue/red yin-yang symbol on the chest. Anyone willing to give a fresh approach to a costume pretty much as a tabula rasa because I'm open for anything as long as it is feminine and allows for freedom of movement?

Also new names I just found free, so advertising for anyone looking for names: Sewer Mouth (please take Water blast and Bile Spray 😄 ) Mona Lisa Smile Chromed Dome Legal Discovery Claws N Effect Live Wired Virtual Warrior Sky Flight Stalwart Heart Jovian Son
