Currently leveling a Rad/EM with a focus on being able to function both at range and in a "blapping" sense. Number of questions;
1) Am I better off focusing on range or blapping? If so, I would imagine blapping might be the best route, if only because both Electron Haze and Cosmic Burst could easily be worked into a single-target close-range attack chain along with the ubiquitous EM melee attacks. I guess my main question here is: is it worth trying to be versatile with this power set combo? Or should I just focus on one or the other?
2) I'm having trouble picking power pool sets. I understand Fitness will be inherent with the next patch, so I won't include that for now. I'd like to take Super Speed for aesthetic purposes (that and Hasten is always welcome), but what else is good? I think I'd like to focus on defensive abilities as best I can, but is there anything else I might be missing that's essential?
I'm leaning towards Speed (for SS/Hasten), Fighting (for Tough/Weave), Medicine (for Aid Self, might not be required though). Drawing a blank on a fourth one (so used to just taking Fitness!); maybe Jumping just for CJ/Acrobatics?
Anyways, thanks in advance to any replies that come in.
