I agree with raising the aggro cap but leave the buff toggles at their normal cap that way it stays balanced in a way

I'm jumping for joy! xD when i first heard about i16 I was happy that we were going to be able to change our power colors but in general...I didn't think they would allow us to change every single power and to that costume slot as well...man o man this is so sweet.

Thanks so much CoH team

-Sardan*"There's always new stuff in the pipeline they can't talk about."

Makes you wonder what else they got behind those closed doors :O!!

I understand what smurphy is saying because I do these types when wanting to have fun (when hit with SB) or just because it really is lag I can tell. But the times when it happens the enemies are swinging and hitting but the stomp acts as of nothing was there. I'm not sayin it happens all the time but it has a few times and sometimes back to back. But like Stars mentioned a demorecord would be helpfully but difficult xD

I have a buddy that has a Shield/Mace and it's a pretty solid build tho it may be end heavy you'll learn how to play your tank over time plus the dmg is always a plus with mace or axe. mace being a bit more faster and axe hitting a bit more harder but almost being quite the same in the end. mace(smash) axe(Lethal)

Ok I've finally got my blueprint! heh no maneuvers basically because I wanted to focus on constant debuffing with acc and dmg, I also figured with shadow and embrace I'll be fine =]

Oh wow so it is a bug, I just thought I was having some bad luck or something. Yeah at times my FS wouldn't hit at all in a huge mob. I'm glad you found this out. Next time it happens I'll send a report.

One question is this only happening to you in AE? if you run AE lol or is it all around.

I ask because oil slick is only bugged in AE so it might be on the same line

I don't get why people complain about this...As stated what is the tankers job? to tank or be a back up tank *if 2 etc*. DPS is not your goal keep your focus on holding the aggro or keeping an eye on wild players. 2 tanks or more on a team is amazing if the two tankers are not having an epen0r war or fighting over who should be the Alpha Male(It also depends on what missions are going to be done etc.)...When my girl and me are on our Willpower/Invuln tanks we rip through mobs and destroy even harder with a team of course.

Now we come down to playstyle. New to tanking? played scrapper or blaster alot before? you probably won't notice yourself but you'll be attacking like one. And notice the end going down. Want some end help? Step away from AE and get accolades!? *GASP! what are those?* look it up.

Not every AT is going to play through a mission the same. You all should know this. All AT have weakness and strengths. Some have end drain protection(DA). Some can refill their own or give others END (FA,Kin). Some AT can solo faster then others.
USE your Inspirations lol they gave us inspis for a reason.

Why surprised? they are squishy

I'm actually having problems on what should be slotted the most and least and also having so many options @_@ lol I have 20% of it slotted. Tho I do feel like dropping PG is it really useful of a power aganst AVs? because looking at that and fearsome stare they both have the same mag or am I missing something?

Interetsing things im reading lol and getting mixed up just a little.

But to clearify that I will never,ever,evvvver solo this toon xD.

Also, I'm thinking of dropping Blackstar so I can take dark embrace. I just want a constant flow of debuffing and attacking going with some protection. And moonbeam tho seems cool is just another snipe power im not to fond of. I'm not sure why snipes are set up to take so long to shoot to alone do mediocre dmg...but thats whole nother topic lol anyways.

I do like Shannons setup hmm. Still tinkinering some more and I'll post a final build soon

Oh yes one thing about Dark Servant. whats the best way to go about slotting it?

Ok So I appreciate all the feedback I've gotten and have taken into account whats been said and created this blueprint.
I do plan on doing lots of teaming seeing as I don't solo much. But was wondering if I'll be able to survive like this? and maybe was thinking of taking SJ for CJ defenses bonuses

So I've decided to try a Dark/Dark Def because I love both powersets and being as Dark blast was one of the first powers to pick when I first started but never followed through with it for some other reasons I don't know lol. I want to make a decent build. SO!
Seeing as alot of the links don't work I've been kind of running into some ruts.

Basically what I want from this build is to Debuff, decent acc and dmg for a D/D Def

So I have this blueprint of how I want to go about with it, Yet I'm unsure about the Nova. Personally I don't think it's really needed and could probably use another power. Also the Epic pool is not set in stone I just used Dark for the end consumption and dark embrace for the S/L and Neg/Tox Res.

Anyways feedback on the build or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
