Scrapper /shield
Thank you all, another quick one with reference to Mids. I was messing with some of the builds in here using it, and when you go into totals, it grey's out the Attack powers.... although reports some builds to have hit the 45% defence softcap. How is that possible?
As for the greying out, hit the button to the right of the name/AT/origin bit that says "View Totals", it'll pop up a window and not mess with the display. As for how builds hit the 45% defense softcap, it's mostly taking defensive powers and slotting with IO sets that grant bonuses to defense; try clicking the button to the left of "View Totals" called "View Active Sets" to see what kind of bonuses they're getting from IO sets.

So, I have gone ahead with a PVE soft cap attempt. Please let me know if this is even worth while. I only have around 40 mil, on this toon. Some things may have to be replaced.
I had some difficulties and messed around with a bunch of ideas. Please feel free to rip it apart, if you are going to offer something constructive.

Update, sorry I have 40 mil at level 35... and another 30 or so from other toons. So, by level 40 ish, I should have 100 mil. Is this doable?
Bah ignore me - I didn't see Weave was turned off.
Looking at your build, Phalanx Fighting is set to have 1 teammate in range. You need to edit the power in Mid's database to allow the minimum teammates to be set to 0. With that turned off you are a bit short on melee defense and over 2% away from ranged and aoe soft caps.

Thanks.
Grrrrr... I'm not very good at this softcap stuff. I've been looking at other people's posts here, and still can't seem to get the same results with the same slotted powers. I must be missing something. I want to stay away from the SJ slotting because then you have to keep turning on/off SJ to cap... which seems like a waste. I also would like to get conserve power as well which I had to drop, I currently have Hasten which is also very nice... but I also had to drop it.
Blah... I don't know what to do anymore. I much like Beekeeper am having a tough time staying alive on large teams with my current IO slotting (no active sets). Solo, I'm a death machine.. with poping a green now and again. (no aid self yet at 35).
Alas, back to the drawing board.
Well the data chunk from Mid's you posted had Weave set to off so what i initially looked at wasn't soft capped if you lowered PF to 0 allies, but you are over the soft cap with Weave enabled.
If you slot BotZ into SJ you do not need to toggle it on to get the set bonuses.

Really I thought the bonuses expired after 2 minutes without the power on. I could move some slots around.
One more questions, what's the feeling on One with the Shield?

As long as you have the power and the slots, i.e. you aren't exemped down, then you get the set bonuses regardless of whether or not the power is active. You're thinking of the IO's that provide some sort of buff like knockback protection or the miracle or numina uniques.

Next, how much can be added, I'm guess there must be a hardcap as well.

Technically there is a hardcap at 200.38%, but unless you pop a whole tray of purples you will never reach it so it doesn't really matter.
[/ QUOTE ]
Or team with a bunch of FF Defenders. Five with well-slotted bubbles would be enough for anyone with a bit of defense, six would put anyone at the hardcap. It would be completely pointless, but it could happen.
