    Thanks for the help guys. Like I said, I'm completely new to the slotting sets thing, since I usually just go for regular IOs, so I definitely don't take offense when you say I'm doing all wrong.

    I picked the excess of purple sets mainly cause I wanted the recharge, figuring that would be good for getting the powers off as frequently as possible, as well as getting their other benefits. But I'll rework it to see about getting the Fire Defense up and see what I can do.

    So I really like my Spines/Fire scrapper but he's in major need of an enhancement overhaul. He works fine as-is with simple IOs, but seeing as he's an absolute beast and easily makes tons of money (farming, tfs, etc) I thought I'd treat him to a very expensive build so he can dominate even more. Here's what I was thinking so far:

    So what do you guys think? I'm fairly new to set-building so I went for as many purple sets as possible. I originally had Unbreakable Constraint in Char, but none of the bonuses worked because there were already 5 of them, so I went with the pvp one.

    I finished the build and then realized Ripper had no slots, but considering its long activation time and that Impale and Throw Spines recharge quite quickly with this build I think I'll be fine without it. Of course, now it just feels like a wasted power. If you think I should put slots in it, where should I take them from?

    This build is mostly for farming, to make money for future characters to get to splurge like this, as well as getting shards, etc.

    Statesman is an Incarnate, just like Lord Recluse. Statesman himself has said this. What an "Incarnate" is, is up to anyones guess.


    [/ QUOTE ]
    yeah, but that's a new AT, isn't it? if Statesman had said there would be a new origin coming out, and it would be Incarnate, it would mean that.
    but i think with magic, natural, technology, science, and mutation, they pretty much have their bases covered, origin-wise, unless you're speaking of dual-origin heroes
    i.e. someone could say the bulk of Wolverine (C) is dual, since he has good healing, but his bones are nearly unbreakable now, due to the adamantium, making him mutant/technology
