question about force field

i play a defender force field/elec (currently level 13) and i have few questions about this set.

1/ i saw in several post that FF had been nerfed alot and that it was to be mad to play that. what is exactly the problem? are those complain still true?

2/ i noticed that now I have dispersion field, I suffer much dammage than before O_o. it's weird, this bubble should give me more res/def and not more pain. so why?

3/I tested the set on a planner and it seems that the the 3 major fields (dispersion/repulsion/force) eat a huge amount of endurance, even with the fitness pool.

is the build playable at high level?

FF is playable, yes.

1. The complaints of nerfs were because of the lowered def, and while they haven't been upped, FF remains playable.

2. You shouldn't be taking more damage because of the bubble, although remeber that the higher you go the more damage enemies do. Dispersion grants around 10% def, and a very nice status protection.

3. I wouldn't really recommend repulsion field, and force bubble is a situational power.

I wrote some stuff about the FF powers here.

I can solo with my FF/Dark fine (if somewhat slower than most ATs) at high level.

I like repulsion field a lot, but just like force bubble it too is a situational power. You don't want to be running around with it on all the time but it can be useful for pinning down mobs and also in pvp.

Wow, people play Force Field.. I thought I was the only one. (I'm so tired of saying 'no, I can't heal').

I'm a FF/Energy, and I can solo pretty well, dash in, knock 'em all off their feet, snipe the smaller ones, if I get low, PFF shoots up and I'm gone again, running circles around them until I can pop off another good shot and get more down before PFF goes up again (They take that away and I'll cry - honest).

1. Not been around long enough to see it, but I like it. PFF does let some shots through, from the bigger guys, but as I see it, I shouldn't be going after them anyway.

2. Pass!

3. Yah, it eats endurance. I carry around a few breaths to help me going, and don't storm around killing everything in sight constantly. I haven't really seen it as a problem, you can run PFF almost constantly (take it down to do anything) whilst travelling, with Slide/Run, and it'll go, and go, and go...

Forse.

It'll just be a coincidence. Dispersion Bubble is just a team buff, it doesn't cause aggro or anything.
