Stone is required in such a small amount of content if at all I just don't see the need for it. I would go with a strong taunt aura anyway, but with Ice/rad they are going to be playing in melee as well. Even with all the mitigation they bring, I would want to make sure they are left alone as much as possible. I think anything with a damage aura and credible AoE from your secondary would work if you are in a duo. If you are only going to duo, then Stone is way overkill. If you team up with others often, then your damage isn't as big of a need.

I don't get why they can't just take Dark Blast and Dark Melee and then go from there. There can't be that much in terms of new powers really.

I only have one 50 on Victory, but I have a server full, so any TFs are welcomed. Posting a heads up will be helpful as well. My global is @Amy Amp.

*yawn*

I also like the quote on how we are going to find alien life forms in the next 20 years. Is this like how the end of the world was suppose to happen earlier this year?

Define farming? Farming as in getting tickets can be done on a number of builds since the cap for a map is 1.5K. Both of those builds would be ok at best at doing it for the tickets. Farming in terms of being able to PL others and you are looking elsewhere. I good AV, team, ticket muncher would be a Fire/rad. Between the two listed, I would think Elec/rad is a better build. Outside of Earth's -def, there isn't as much synergy between Earth and Kin as there is with Elec and Rad.

I will say there is some sort of hatred by the player base to form teams. I was on Freedom in IP and there were a couple of other people there as well. I asked around in local and in three channels about doing a STF. I eventually after a couple of minutes got somebody who asked if there was still room. Note, this seems to be the signature reply for the first person when there seems to be a delay in getting a response. Eventually I got a team together and we ran it. We failed, but we ran it. I could of been one of those Freedom team leaders and built the team better while kicking people for (insert reason here), but I was willing to take whatever and work with it. I would say it's somewhere around 90%, or so of the time if I want to get on a team regardless of server I have to lead. This, and the lack of people playing non-level 50 content are my two biggest grips about the game right now. It's not that I can't lead, but it's almost like I have to and that gets annoying.

Mesmerize has a mag 4 sleep to it so that's why it can sleep a boss in one application compared to what sleeps, or other mezz effects normally do.

Or at least Freemium. Premium quality at free cost.

Seems odd to add it to the list, but there's one possibility. My initial guess was how close in pronunciation it is to a swear word.
