I have been looking; I'm brand new to the game and I'm looking for a solo build, and information that I've seen so far has lead me towards MA brute maybe tanker? My understanding is that I would want an AoE 2ndary to fill it out. I'd like to be able to solo everything in the game, but also looking for rather simple to play. I'd really appreciate the help. Thank you (I'm not hard stuck on the MA part of it).

 

Thank you!

 

Here is a VERY AoE Centric Tank

Martial Arts has 1 AoE, it's a PBAOE. The Dragon Tail sweep,  Dark Armor has PBAOE DoT Aura and if you put that one recipe set in Cloak of Fear, then it has chance to proc dmg also in a PBAOE asepect. 

 

If you want AoE Melee based Tank.  Electric Melee(has 3, Small Cone, AoE off Target and Placement AoE), Energy Melee(has 2, PBAOE & Cone)). Radiation Armor has PBAOE in it. Dark Melee has 4. 2 PBAOEs & a Smaller Cone.  and an AoE off target.  Radiation Melee has Small Cone and AOE off Target.  Dual Blades has PBAOE(finisher) and 2 Cones. 

 

These are examples. You REALLY should look over these powers in Mids and research. 

Thanks for the input; I was just going off the build that I had on mids; for the dark/ma and saw that they took dragon as soon as it was available at 20 and then dark embrace at 28 (the pbaoe dot you mentioned)

FYI you can build Dark/MA to have a fair amount of AoE if you want. Some damage procs in Dark Regeneration, as well as damage procs and a Force Feedback +Rech proc in Dragon's Tail to get both AoE's and ones from your Epic Power Pool (like procced Fireball) back up and recharged quickly.
