    Due to power creep and new sets, Fire is no longer the damage defensive set. Shield has better survivability, better offense, better/more reliable damage buff, damage debuff, team support, and an active tier9 instead of an "Oops button" (Not saying SoW can't be used as an oops button of course...)

    Pretty much every set has better survivability than Fire; that's sort of always been the case. Now it's just silly.

    Faen Riley is my Ice/Kin Corr. I thought Ice/Kin was sort of commonplace, I could've sworn I'd seen a bunch running around. Nothing like a Fulcrum Shifted Blizzard every few minutes to keep mobs on their toes :P

    It'll change your survivability when you six-slot it with Obliterations <3

    Dechs, was your very first story at the top recent? I think I was in that team with you, probably on my Ice/Kin Corruptor

    If so, yeah, that guy was a bit...overbearing :P

    A few ITFs ago, the Empath made the mistake of PBU+Fortituding and Adrenaline Boosting my Corr. He stuck with the team, while I hovered off and downed three of the cysts on my own <3

    Slotted to the teeth, Manuevers is only going to give you just over 4% defense. Your teammates will already be at ~30% defense from the personal shields and Dispersion. It makes a better Red Fortune mule than it does a defense toggle, lol

    GI vs SI is up to you; personally, GI is a bit better in that it isn't murdering your endurance while running. Both have their bonus defense surpressed heavily if attacked/attacking. Like others said above me, GI is fire and forget, instead of "where'd my end go?" It really matters on whether you plan to team a lot. SI for stealthing missions, GI for team play.

    I don't believe in cage powers like Detention Field. Yes, it could come in handy. Could. Like against Sappers, and a few others. The problem is teammates. Said problematic enemy will more than likely be flattened in a very short span of time (Stalkers and Brutes tend to aim for the biggest threat). If cage powers were a time limited toggle, so you can drop it prematurely, it'd be wonderful. But they aren't. Instead you get teammates whiffing at an enemy for 10+ seconds until they realize it's caged.

    Once you've taken Hasten on an Illusionist, you won't leave it. Flash and Phantom Army have gimp-tastic recharge timers, while Spectral Wounds and Blind, your bread/butter combo, are on six and nine seconds respectively. Getting those powers up faster is integral, especially with Phantom Army, as Phantasm's own PA recharges much, much slower than yours.

    Here's my build with enhancements. The only purple I threw in was the Placate Proc, as it's hilariously cheap (8m last I checked) and fun to use (Did it for the lulz). Soft-capped Range defense without Weave, CJ, or Manuevers, and I didn't need to sacrifice anything for it.

    Drop Aid Self? Ouch. You're a Defense toon, with lots of peons who draw aggro and are incapable of dying; firing off ASelf is easy-mode. Force Bubble serves as more of a "OH SH-" power, as scattering mobs is the fastest way to get team-kicked.

    Here's my build, maybe it'll give you some ideas...

    Enjoy your copy of Brute Mu Mastery :P

    Either go Grounded, CJ/SJ/Acro, or CJ+KB IO

    That's all there is to it.
  10. Miyabi
    Ah, forgot to toggle off Hide, thanks Kioshi

    Luckily my Stalker isn't 50 yet, still plenty of time to rework her build.

    Edit: Actually, question. If I softcap, won't that make Shadow Meld useless? :P
  11. Miyabi
    They also need under-mounted micro-missile launchers

    I can't have my fun without explosions.

    Gatling Laser Pistols please.

    You built so heavily into recharge but didn't take Hasten. I'd really only go into the Fighting pool if I were to build into bonuses other than defense. Soft-capping without it on SR and Nin is easy-mode.

    This build sacrificed a little KB protection, has essentially the same positionals (Soft-capped), but gives up nothing in damage or accuracy. In fact, it betters accuracy, damage, recharge, and HP bonuses by a huge margin.

    It is an expensive build of course. One less LotG Recharge can go towards things, and you can replace purple sets with the lower end sets for essentially the same bonuses (IE: Malaise instead of Persuasion, Devastation instead of Apocalypse...)

    This is my EM/Nin's build. Less accuracy and recharge, more damage.

    Should be able to just fire (drop) and forget the bombs. Press the arm button and drop. Suddenly, Devices is an excellent set, what the heck!

    -Set Fix Suggestions-
    Blaster: Electrical Blast, Devices (As per Mila's suggestions)
    Controller: Gravity Control
    Scrapper: Fiery Aura
    Tanker: Fiery Aura
    Brute: Fiery Aura
    Dominator: Gravity Control

    You'd think it'd be tough, but not so much. SR's strength grows as it climbs the level ladder, almost exponentially. Pulling off an Aid Self is child's play for it. Shield, not as easy, as Shield is layered defenses. Neither really NEEDS Aid Self, but they can more easily make use of it should their builds have room for it.

    I honestly look at ElA and EA together, as they're themed Energy sets; one for resistance, and one for defense. ElA's power ordering should be closer to EA's

    1) Remove CP from both ElA and EA, put it in Mu Mastery for anyone who wants it
    2) Move Power Sink in ElA up to the 28 slot
    3) Put something in the now vacant 35 slot for both sets (I suggest Power Boost, so EA gets a ghetto t9 earlier, and PB+PSink = effective drains for ElA)
  17. Miyabi
    And now to throw a wrench in the works of those trying to defend ElA's current status

    No IOs
    No Inspirations
    Armor set only
    Final Des...

    Ah, sorry...

    Powersets are based around how well they function with SOs, regardless of accompanying set. The developers have stated they do not factor in IOs when creating/looking over sets. Inspirations are finite and limited, short term solutions. A set shouldn't abolsutely require taking pool powers in order to make it function (Castle commented such some time ago regarding Fiery Aura)

    So yes, you CAN take Fighting and Medicine to fill the holes, but you shouldn't HAVE to. It's like Stamina. Each set has a way to not have to take Stamina built right in, so players have the option of not taking Fitness.

    Without Aid Self, Tough/Weave, and a mitigation primary, how well does the set hold up?

    Not very.

    Granted, you're a monster in the RWZ...

    To Fulmens: You either go Grounded and stay low, or go CJ/SJ/Acro. Grounded covers your KB AND Immobilize, is another 10% Res to Energy and Neg, and grants 70% End Drain resistance. I always get a good laugh when I see an ElA with neither, flopping around like a fish out of water >_<

    Edited: Fixed some stuff.

    The only things I could really think of to add would be more Day Jobs similar to the Crey Employee one, but for each villain group that has a spawn zone. So heroes could spend their days infiltrating the Skulls in Perez Park, stuff like that.

    I got nothin :P

    I wouldn't really call Traps passive, more of a fire and forget set.

    But then, if you're not dropping something every few seconds, then you're not playing traps well, lol

    VS really should have its recharge cut in three, be made immobile, and the 1 max requirement removed. Then it'd be a legitimate help in a scrap.

    Not a bad idea, really. Although I could see some PVP ramifications, with people complaining about Ele Blasters and their 'litter' all over zones :P

    If everyone likes these, I plan to forward them to the powers-that-be as possible ideas for i17...

    -Bats-
    1) Throw Bat
    1) Bat Patrol (Summons 1-3 small, angry bats)
    2) Throw Two Bats
    6) Equip Bats (With baseball bats)
    8) Throw A Lot of Bats
    12) The Man Bat (Summons 1-2 living baseball bats)
    18) Belfry (Summons bat horde...our wings will blot out the sun!)
    26) Summon Cowl Guy (Summons an overweight basement dweller in black spandex)
    32) Little League (Equips bats with baseball helmets)

    -Tarps-
    1) Tarp (Like Ice Slick. Except...not slick...mostly for show)
    2) Wet Tarp (This one's slick. Better than that one^)
    4) Picnic Tarp (Gradual regen. Very filling. Chance to get overrun by ants)
    10) Acid Tarp (Induces vomiting, even to yourself)
    16) Construct Tarp Cottage (+DEF, immobile, easily smashed)
    20) Fish Tarp (For filleting, bonus damage to fish [I'm coming for you Barracuda!])
    28) Choking Hazard (Tarp Garrote, strangles one foe. No effect on robots)
    35) Tarp Mine (Tarp is a rare mineral. Digs a hole, where you find money!)
    38) Detonation (Throw tarp on foe, light it on fire. Caution: Highly flammable!)

    We'll need a new emote. Running away waving your hands trying to protect your head.
