Adding this to favorites. I have a horrid time finding this thread when I need to.
*hibernates*
Great Post though i wish i could find some #'s for the resists in the blaster/dfndr/controller APP's.
The resists are all around 30+% except for the body armor. I think its 15%, or something like that...

Very nice list, but I didn't seen any epic powers for my Tanker set, can't remember what it's called but it's all invulnerability stuff. I'm gaining on lvl 33 pretty quick and want to get this stuff lined up.

There isn't a one for one equivilent Epic/Ancillary Power Pool for each Power Set in the Arch-Type. This was a complaint of many of the AT's but there has been no indication by the Dev's that more APP's are on the way. So what you see listed is what is available to you.
Thanks for posting this guide!
Question....
The description for Defender/Power Mastery/Power Build Up makes it sound as if it's a combo of Build Up and Power Boost from the Blaster's Energy Secondary. Is this the case? Build Up typically only affects DMG and ACC while Power Boost affects secondary effects such as Knockback, Disorient, etc.
If so, this is a great combination to take!

Yep! My emp/psi defender has this and it's great! Greatly boosts damage when I use it to boost my Psychic Wail and also greatly boosts my heals (love those big green numbers).
Thanks for the great thread!
Very helpful, thank-you.

POWER NAME LRM Missile
DESCRIPTION: Sniper Rifle is a powerful piece of hardware. It is very accurate and has a very long range. The impressive round can knock down its target. Like most sniper attacks, you must take your time to aim, so this attack can be interrupted. You must have two other Munitions Mastery Powers before selecting this power.
Sniper (Targeted AoE), Superior DMG(Lethal/Smash), Foe Knock back

So is it a sniper or a rocket?
It is an AoE snipe.
Thanks for the guide...this really helps me coming back to the game with a 35 controller coming up on level 41 fast...
Why do the blasters get such high lvl abilites?? It seems their only weekness is their defense and now they get to choose between the highest lvls of defensive powers!! While the scrappers get to choose from useless attacks that do as little damage as flurry or high kick?!? I wish we could get their nova or sniper ability! That might make it a little more fair!
Just curious, with the advent of PVP has focused accuracy been graced with a +Perception attribute? Can anyone provide info on this?(seems like it would make sense...)

Blasters recieved some Damage Resistance powers/Defensive powers but are still very susceptible to Mez type of attacks.
I believe the Epics/Ancillary pools are really meant to round AT's out.

POWER NAME Tenebrous Tentacles
DESCRIPTION: You can create a cone shaped rift to the Netherworld that allows its native creatures to slip their oily Tentacles into our reality. These creatures will snare all foes within range, immobilizing them while the Tentacles drain their life and reduce their Accuracy. You must have two other Darkness Mastery Powers before selecting this power.
Ranged (Cone), Moderate DMG(Negative/Smash), Foe Immobilize, -ACC
I have a Dark Scrapper. My ultimate is already the tenticals...
This is gonna be really funny later in levels.
You can't spell Slaughter without laughter
All your gonna do is just farm behemoths anyways.
My thoughts on November 30.

I would really like to know this as well.
I definitely believe it should have +perception like tactics.
Has anyone written a good guide for APPs post ED/1.6?
I'm pretty sure that focused accuracy doesn't have the +perception like tactics. If the devs needed to justify this they'd probably point out that FA has a far, far greater base value than tactics while conveniently ignoring the fact that it also has a far, far greater endurance cost and doesn't affect your teammates.
nice
Focused Accuracy does offer +perception and personally, I feel it's too much...as it sees through Hide.
nice post, thanks
can anyone who has tried these epic powers for controller recommend a set for me? So far the Stone Mastery and Primal Forces sound pretty cool.
Important that this thread not be lost in the 'Old posts' purge.
Therefore... Bump. 
I think it must be fully slotted (or close to it) so take the place of a SO ACC.
