DM/SR will own anything, you just have to spend 10 grand or more and over night parts from Japan.

I'd say go with Fire/SR because fire has the best secondary, death!

That sounds like a good idea, I sent a message to Castle outlining the idea of giving regeneration some resistance to debuffs. Hopefully he will take the idea and run with it.

Also I would like to see Fast Healing have similar debuff resistance as Will Powers, 26%.

Really? Because that is exactly what I do, lead with Fire Breath and Fire Ball and then run in with TF and Bone Smasher on the boss. I guess I must be crazy

There are definitely times and places for that strategy! Soloing it's pretty much the way to go, and it can be effective teamed if you know what you're doing. But seriously, would you recommend that strategy to a new blaster on teams? If you don't have enough oomph to clear out at least the minions with that opening salvo, you're in for a world of hurt...

[/ QUOTE ]

Of course I would, remember first rule of pulling with a Fire Blaster is always use Fire Ball.

Why is it that a set that is high dependent on it's ability to regeneration has no regeneration resistance?

Is there any hope of Regeneration obtaining such resistance?

What powers would this resistance be applied to?

I think that Resilience would be a good power to place it or in Fast Healing.

Input?

One thing I usually try to point out to new blasters that I didn't see in the mini-guide is aggro management on teams. AKA, you don't usually want to lead with your AoE attacks.

In my experience at least, throwing a Fire Ball or similar into a group before aggro is distributed or the tank has aggro well in hand is an easy ticket to debt. And pulling with Fire Ball is even more likely to accomplish this.

I don't see this happening at all. There are EPPs for everything pared primary and secondary fire, ice, etc... There is already a natural themed EPP in Munitions.

I wouldn't put that enhancement in Ripper, I have it slotted in energy torrent.

What is the reasoning for removing so many badges?

DM/SR will decimate all if you invest 10 grand or more. We can even over night parts from Japan. >.>

I would kill to get an electric melee/ shield defense anything blue side.

DM/SR duh!

My head is spinning with all of these numbers...

Considering that the OP is looking for a Blapper build hover would only be used in case of emergencies along with pff to avoid any incoming damage.

Rather than getting proliferation, I'd much rather get an overhaul. There are too many largely useless things in the Scrapper APPs imho.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'll tell you why, because Scrappers are so awesome already that giving them actually useful APPs will make them uberly over powered that Castle's head would implode.

[ QUOTE ]
If you want to run around hazard zones, yeah, AoEs are essential, but if you just want to solo mission content (both "official" arcs and AE arcs) then your single target damage becomes way more important than your AoEs.

This

I cannot find a thread about it but how do you take a screen shot with the UI?!

[ QUOTE ]
Fire/fire...and nice hook

[/ QUOTE ]
This

Perfect! lol I'll be using that one thanks!

QR

Depends

Pre IO sets Ice/(ment,ice,energy) all very good.

Nothing quite like a freeze ray then drain psyche off the held mob.

Post IO

Fire/Ment
Arch/Ment.

Either way they are dead. Who needs to hold them anymore ?

[/ QUOTE ]

Those are great for teaming but fire or mental have very little damage mitigation for hard targets like elite bosses. Ice/Ice or Elec can hold an Elite boss and if all else fails slow him to a point where he can't even catch you.

Here is a cheap build with just common IOs
