eep, thats such a small budget these days. but a few things i noticed...

might want to change out one set of DocWounds, as you'll only get the bonuses from the 1st 5 sets. suggest frankenslot i.Healing (heal/rech), as this is easily the best power in /regen, and doing so will free-up 1 slot while boosting your Enh values to ED cap.

if you only took Conceal pool for Phase, consider the Temp version to allow Manuvers (only for a LotG, never toggled) and Tactics. swapping your Chi slots here will allow you to drop T.Drone also, while reducing End cost a bit. approx same number of slots used after the shuffle.

2 Micros in SS is enough, esp for the added cost when $ is a hinderance elsewhere. another free slot here, or 1End+2Run would be alot of free inf...

2 slots of Rech in MoG because A: that 5th R.Fortune bonus is null due to the 5 sets of DocWounds, and B: the Def is already somewhat snubbed at base. 3 more free slots.

5 slots of Enfeebled in WebGranade, plus 1Rech could be cheaper than 3Acc commons...and more effective.

consider Caltrops for cheap stalker deterrant.

with Eagle's Claw high crit chance, you might want better Rech. droppin 2 Mako out for 2 Ci's mix will drastically improve your best attack's Enh'd potency.

i love my MA/reg so i sank serious bank into it to open-up alot of options, and so it looks far diff from your build. but overall you have the right idea i think, just remember to check your bonuses. 5 is the cap for any given percentage (only 5 7.5%Rech, only 5 12%Regen, etc.) ...and GL

so a friend of mine pointed out to me that Champ actually had a fashion show on Sat... sry bout the snarky comment. thought the "fashion show" reference was about Justice's PumBumbler $9.6B Costume Contest which was also on Sat...

my bad. and, GL with the Mr/Mrs PERC event

i'll take a door prize valued at a billion inf over another title above my char anyday. which one is the fashion show, and which is the contest again?

hola Plas n Happy B-day, mate!

aww crap!!! i completely missed it... sry Cho, i had no idea. hope it was great, my flamin friend!

Happy Birthday mate !!!!

hey peeps

as a few of ya may know, i'm havin trouble keepin ontop of my bills lately due to a motorcycle accident (not my fault). i've burnt through my savings and been sellin off my stuff to keep my credit safe, but ****'s come to a head atm... so on monday i went to the Phoenix Convention Center where NACA had gathered banks to modify home loans. there was a bomb scare and the bank reps all bailed instead of goin back inside like everyone else.

the good news is through orientation i learned that my case is strong for a modification to save my house. i bought years before the bubble started, fell for a preditory loan, had a major injury - huge cut to my income, and owe about twice what my house currently sells for. so NACA gave me a nice voucher to see a bank rep 1st thing saturday mornin.

the bad news is NACA is in Las Vegas that morning and i've got to drive up there in a rental car, lol. this is bad for my busted spine and my credit cards which i'm living off till my income exceeds my bills again.

i'm lookin for anyone who wouldn't mind donating a few quiet hours of couch or guest bed this Sat afternoon/eve so i can catch zz's for the drive home, and lessen my back pain to a level where i actually notice my meds.

it's alot to ask for, and short notice. no worries if nothing comes together, hope to get some gametime in again soon. ;D

thx all

BUT....I'm extremely concerned about the perception that Defenders "aren't needed" and thus "can't find a team" at high levels. Defenders should fill a valuable role at ALL levels and help Archetypes achieve levels that they can't reach by themselves. After all, Defenders are all about buffs (and debuffs). Every Archetype should be extremely happy when the Defender provides a resistance or defense buff...

thanks for listening to the peeps, States.

my 1st opinion is on the "perception" part... maybe if we didn't go so unnoticed, like i hit some1 with Fort and they get a +%Def/+%To-Hit set of numbers above their head, or the combat notes gave actual figures to my RA, AB, Manuvers, Tactics, Assault, etc. percentages. even de-buffs could get a % above affected foes. so peeps can SEE that we're making a difference. would be great to have an option to turn these off for those who don't want to see it - or lag issues.

please consider building-up defenders who share the same powers as their troller brothers. last thing i want is to destroy some1's build that they love playing, at the expense of making my char more "needed".

one thing that could be applied to all defenders is the ratios on primary powers going up, ie:
-larger AOE diameters and longer ranges would help the +40 teams cause they spread out more as the mobs get bigger.
-shorter recharge and/or longer effective times would go a long way, like u can hardly keep a team of 8 CM'd as the 1st one wears off by the time u get done with the last. AOE CM any1?
-higher base percentages for heals/buffs and remove the cap, why do i have a heal-cap anyway???
-and less End cost is the easiest way to give 'fenders a reason to smile. would be nice to have 1 AT in the game that doesn't HAVE to take stamina (regen's still need it cause of IH), but i realize thats prolly too much to ask.
-improvements to Epic pools would help the +40 issue alot without hurting the 1-40 play. auto-Def powers with moble status protection? AOE holds instead of single target? does Power Build-Up effect Leadership pool?

there's prenty of individual issues for each set that can/should be looked into. i'm just suggesting a blanket increase in PvE effectiveness for all of us.

for PvP? well if you're an Emp/* your better off rollin a different char to have any sucsess in the arena. i'm a liability to my team no matter what i do... no way to protect myself, and no way to hinder the enemy. if i'm seen, then i'm dead. i have LOTS of other chars at just as high LvL, and i'm pretty sucsessful with them. so i don't think it's just me having this problem. unfortunately, i don't have and real suggestions to fix it either. so i won't complain, i'll just have fun on other chars.

thanks for giving us a chance to talk to ya about this. PLEASE don't hit troller secondaries with the nerfbat. it's not their fault!!! lol
