This would take me more than an hour. All my slots are filled with Alts. -

Not for the entire Barrier duration unless you build for it.

Quote:I wouldn't if your doing the incarnate stuff, from what I heard the SC for that is a bit higher and you might want to keep it at that. I think it is a solid build for what you plan on doing, since you said you are not going to nothing but level 50 content.Originally Posted by IonFlow
I appreciate the feedback.
This is a respec at 50; I already have this guy at 50 and I'm playing around. As to taunt, I took it much earlier when I was leveling than I have it in this build.
I've already run and completed all the task forces and earned all the accolades on this toon. I don't go back on toons like this to work on low-level content. I use alts for that. As such, when certain powers are taken--taunt at 30, SoW at 49--is in part due to things not really mattering as I'll only be playing this guy at 50.
I'm going to look into droping my slots in taunt; I don't need all the bonuses I'm getting there and might be able to use them better elsewhere. Any thoughts?
Thanks for all of the feedback; I'll post an updated build later tonight.

Thank you for your responses, I had no Idea that Shield for a tanker could be cheap. I currently have a Shield/Axe tank at lvl 30 but Axe seems to be disappointing in dmg and recharge. Though looking at the other Secondarys and minus war mace, I don't see many others that mesh nicely. I haven't tried DM yet though. I may hold off on Shield till after the neew Patch and focus on WP. What would be a good secondary to mesh with that? Maybe Elec, Nrgy, or DM , but not sure cause of costume and theme concepts. I might switch over and make a Claw scrapper, not sure, just need a little but more feedback on how good those three fair for a tanker to make my decision. Again thank you all for your responses.

-S/L/E/N defense softcap with Barrier.
-Close to S/L resistance hardcap with Barrier.
-Good damage for both AoE and ST.
-Darkest Night for extra mitigation. -
Quote:Bad idea unless you want to go to vill side.Originally Posted by Syntax42
Looks pretty solid. I wouldn't go that far past the soft-cap though. I would rely on inspirations to combat heavy defense debuffs.
If you want a better attack chain, drop the slots out of Taunt and put them in Gloom from the Soul Mastery Epic pool. You can spare the S/L defense and pick up a bit more recharge if you slot Decimation. For the extra power choice, you could pick up Dark Obliteration if you found more slots, or Resurgence. -
Ok why did you wait so long to take SoW? I would of taken it lot sooner then lvl 49. You are also over SC on s/l even without maneuvers. I might of taken something else besides it, plus a different epic power pool. Plus I would of not put the stealth proc in there with sprint, and token taunt sooner around lvl 20 or so. But it is not bad. Those are a few things I would of done anyway.

Just got done with TT on an all Tanker ITF

Just a friendly reminder TT is on Freedom tonight.

I said this on another post and I will say it again, my fire/fire tank dose more damage then some of the scrappers/brutes/stalkers I have teamed with. You have to remember it all depends on how you build it, and what you take. My WP/SS tank dose less damage then my SD/BA tank, but dose more then my WP/Kin tank. While my fire/fire tank dose the most, and my stone/stone dose the least out of them all my lvl 50 tanks.

Again thanks for all your concern unfortunately there is nothing that can be done about it. The cancer is wrapped around her liver and its in its final stage.

Quote:You do not even need that most of the Baddies KB is between 4-10, (10 being stuff like HAMI)Originally Posted by Madadh
Dang, I can't believe I saw the acrobatics and then totally forgot to mention it. Yeah, I'm completely with LSK, that choice doesn't make sense to me at all. If 10KB isn't enough, I'd rather free up a slot from elsewhere and slot a KB IO from 1 of several different sets. You could easily get the Karma one for cheap and fit it in a lot of different powers.

Thanks folks the only problem with that is My mom lives in another town far from me and I am currently car less. But tomorrow I am going to go see her and spend most of the day with her.

Quote:Bad choice for a melee toon since hurricane is also a KB power. ( if you ever been on a ITF with a storm with that on against Rommy in the final battle you can see him get KBed with that power kind of funny.)Originally Posted by GavinRuneblade
Howhelpful is the Storm Elemental's hurricane?
I was looking at that one for my tank, but not sure if they have a strong enough -tohit to really be noticed. -

Quote:Ok that is not true, I did that farm once, ONCE, on my fire/fire tank, and my friend did it on there ss/fire brute. Guess who did most of the killing? My tank yes my tank did most of the killing and I also out damaged him in most of it.Originally Posted by Fiery-Enforcer
No, it's not. Not at all.
If you don't mind making a different charcter, roll a SS/Fire Brute, there's nothing better.
Otherwise, you can stick with the Fire/SS and still do pretty well. There are a ton of SS/Fire builds over in the Brute forums. You can take a look at them because it'll basically be the same build as a Tank.
-
First off what are Planning to do with this build? You have a few over the cap in certain areas and remember the rule of 5. Also why did you take acrobatics? When you have unyielding active you already have 10 KB protection, plus acrobatics is a end hog. You would be better off if you put in DW in DP and 5 slot it instead where you could put the extra slot some where else like in taunt to get it 6 slotted, plus I would lose some of the slots in stamina. I would also put in a steadfast protection +3 def in there some where that will help out with your def.

I just found out that my mom has about 2 months to live, due to cancer. I have told some people this already that she has cancer. But I just wanted to let the rest of the community know, and why I have not been on much, I might even be on less because of this.

Quote:The problem with that is you have to have GR but there is another way you can get them and that is with Merits you get from TFs and finishing off story arcs. With the A-Merits you have to do 5 tip mish a day but you only get 1 A-merit every other day. You can get merits really quick if you do a few TFs plus you can get the drops of some of the things you need or lot of inf from this.Originally Posted by Syntax42
Any build that doesn't include PvP IOs or purple sets is affordable for the average player. Some inventions may take a little longer to acquire, but can be obtained in a reasonable amount of time.
Playing the market is the most effective way to make INF, but it takes a fairly large initial investment and has a lot of risk. Farming is another option, but requires certain powerset combinations and a build to be highly effective.
The method I suggest for most new players is to obtain INF through alignment merits. Any character 25 or over can purchase Luck of the Gambler global recharge recipes for two alignment merits, which sold for over 100 million crafted last time I checked. Obtaining tips goes fast if you can kill level 25ish bosses in Terra Volta. If not, level 20ish mobs can be found in Dark Astoria in fairly large packs, but the bosses that drop tips more often are fairly rare. If you have enough stealth, or a durable character like a Tanker that can run past things, you can run through 5 tip missions in 15 minutes. Do that on a few characters a day and you'll be rolling in billions of INF in a couple weeks.
My whole point is that you shouldn't let INF be the limiting factor in your build. If you really want a great build, you can get it in less time than other MMOs take to get end-game gear. You just have to know where to focus your efforts.
