Another alternative if you can cap AE tix fairly quickly is to roll silver 30-40 recipes and craft them. Based on my experiment, 9999 tix of crafted silver 30 rolls net about 200 mil of profit after sales.

Take your profit and buy kinetic combat recipes which are cheaper. Also, sometimes the lvl 30-34 recipes are much cheaper than the lvl 35 ones.

Eep, you're right. I forgot temps don't work during trials. My bad.
If there is a buffer in the league, you can try asking for buffs. Most folks will buff without drama. Just use the info window to check their powers and ask for a shield. Even if the toon is not on your team, they can still buff you.

It is possible to play Lambda w/o being level shifted. I did it on my 5 squishies and my stoner who did not have any good stealth powers.
If you don't have stealth, then other folks have recommended inspirations and base buffs. Be prepared. This is incarnate content. It is not a walk in Atlas Park.
For my squishies, I always get an invisibility power and craft the Kinetic Dampner temp. The stun grenade and smoke bomb are useful as a distraction to make a quick get away. The stoner actually died more often than the squishies because of lack of stealth. It also doesn't help not being to escape easily since he moves like a turtle.
If you have range, use it. There is no need for you to stand in front of the crate/chamber and shoot it with a ranged power.
A lot of people have made good suggestions. Give it a go and try again. We can post as much as we want, but in the end, it is you who have to figure out what works for your toon and playstyle.

When I run my lv 50 missions and tips, I run +2 to +4 x 8 and only invite levels 1-49. No one else incarnate but me.
Romans at +4 can be quite challenging. See the General by the fountain in Cim for repeatable missions.

I did an experiment on 9999 ae tix. I wanted to know how much profit bronze or silver rolls will be when sold crafted.
Summary:
Bronze 30 rolls crafted: 419,410,192
Silver 30 rolls crafted: 419,410,192
Avg profit per bronze: 2,890,846

1 rare salvage = 540 tix = avg of 2 mil if sold
1 Silver roll = 525 tix
525 tix = 7 bronze 30 rolls
7 Bronze 30 rolls avg profit: 20,235,924
Compare to Avg Profit/Silver roll: 12,198,533

Bronze 30 = 70 tix, so 2,890,846/70 = 41297 inf / 1 tix
1 Silver roll = 525 tix, so 12,198,533/540 = 22589 inf / 1 tix

However, crafted silver rolls sell faster than bronze. For 9999 ae tix, there is also 7x more crafting time involved in bronze vs silver, since 9999 tix yield 140 bronze rolls.

If you don't like crafting, I suggest selling rare salvage or common salvage lvls 1-40. Alchemical silver is going as high as 300k sometimes and 1 common salvage roll is 8 tix or 300,000/8 = 37500 inf / 1 tix

For merits, I suggest going hero and villain and exchanging those R-merits to A-merits, like what other people suggested. Depending on the market, exchange A-merits for Lotg7.5, kin combat or Miracle.

Organica did a A-merit roll test. Her results were an avg of 77 mil for 5 crafted rolls/1 A-merit. This means that an exchanged recipe worth 1 A-merit must sell for 77 mill or more if crafted. If 1 a-merit crafted IO sells less than 77 mil, then it might be better to roll random for 5.

Why do you need to keep up with stuff? Who is pushing you?
Are you being forced to run tips?

You've made a step towards epic ebilness! I hope to see you in a top hat and monocle while drinking tea soon. >:3

For you evildoers, I'll try to run the 2nd respec at least once a day until Saturday. The server is Freedom. However, I will be on from 8 pm to midnite Pacific time on weekdays. If you are interested, just gather at the Nerva ferry around 8 pm. FYI, for the last mission, the team will ghost to the tree. Free teleport service provided to those who need it.

Alpha slot and morality missions are only available if you have the Going Rogue expansion.
My first 50 was a dom. It did very poorly in lvl 50 content. To save you from experiencing my grief, do a search in the forums for elec/fire builds. Import the builds into Mids Hero designer. See how the builds are put together and why some IO sets are used over others.
To be more survivable in level 50 content, I suggest you get Tough, Weave, Stealth and Invisibility if you don't already have it. An alternative to invisibility is to get Superspeed and put a Celerity +stealth IO. However, Cel +stealth is expensive, so I suggest invis for now. If you are a villain, consider getting Mace mastery for the Scorpion shield. I heard the ice/cold APP is good too.
Plan out your powers in Mids. When you are satisfied, use your 2nd build slot or respec your 1st build slot.
