This has been discussed to death. Personally, I don't care which we get. More options is always good. We'll get new sets when the devs decide when they want to proliferate more sets.

Yup, Discussed to death,
Personally I'd like to see "Radiation Melee" A set that is slightly lower on base damage but comes with strong DoT and stronger Def/Res debuffs,

Oh god. Radiation Melee has me drooling. Not from the potential power but because of the cool factor. I would absolutely LOVE a radiation melee set.

Radiation seems like a really horrible power for a hero to be using. Why don't we just stop talking around it for the scrapper set, and call the T9 "Cancer Punch". It's minor smashing damage followed by a really slow DoT that ramps up in damage the longer it's on the target, but it's extremely hard to get rid of, eventually killing almost anything.
Radiation, seriously.

Iconically, yes, I agree, but so is Dark Melee with all the leaching and what not. I just dont see any new sets at all comming, esp with Rogue on the horizon and brutes all over. Eventually all sets should be proliferated, IMO. Not for a least a year, though. Unless its part of the expansion.

Villain side there's a mission regarding the infected about how one gained powers over radiation (and he focuses on radiation melee attacks) named Biopulse who wanted to make contact with longbow to become a new hero and overall a hero of the infected, a leader. So the idea must have been kicked around at some point. Realize also we got Fire Melee and that's pretty much burning our enemies severely.
There's also the fact that Defenders already have access to Radiation. Including moves such as Radiation Infection which in the descript even says (Infect a foe with Deadly Radiation, severely reducing their chance to hit and defense. All foes that come near the target will become infected.) and that's not the only attack they have either.
So considering we already have a radiation set in another hero archetype what makes a scrappers radiation so much worse than that of the defender when the defender can attack with radiation as well?
Hahah, cancer punch sounds so cool. Radiation should focus on really long-time DoT. So it would basically be anti-regeneration. That would be awesome.

Will scrappers ever get Energy Meele or atleast electric meele, All the sets they have now seem really boaring to me, and I would Love to play a EM/anything scrap... All my tanks are em except for like 2 and Im not much of a stalker/brute player so I was just curious to see what you guys think.

you can have energy melee and elect melee when brutes get broadsword and spines.
Radiation in comic books has nothing to do with radiation in real life. Radiation in comic books is a "generic mysterious energy", and is as often beneficial as not. If you over-analyze this game, you'll notice that the heroes causing cancer with radiation, sucking out souls with dark powers, causing collateral damage with fireballs, shooting innocent bystanders with indiscriminate machine gun fire, and looking just plain ugly with spines, are more of a menace to the populace (and probably a greater cause of death) than the villains, who really just want your purse.
