Rad/Thermal - PvE Duo build
Change the thread title to Rad/thermal perhaps?

Irradiate over Electron Haze anyday. This cone is very short and narrow, while Irradiate is a huge PBAoE with extreme -def.
Neutrino bolt is more efficient than X-Ray, but if you're sold on it for the cool factor you can make it work.
Haze is lower cost, shorter recharge, higher damage than irradiate, and wide enough to suit my tastes. Also, it is in no way a short cone, one of the longest ones more like.
It is an almighty cone, the amount of unwanted agro it caused my defender until I learnt this is proof of such

Up to you. Try fire breath or howl if you think it's one of the longest ones, though.
I have Electron Haze is definitely one of my favourite sized cones (though Fire Breath is certainly up there too for attacks and Fearsome stare for cones in general)
Also if he has irraditate he will be in my way all the time.

[/ QUOTE ]Haze = 40 feet, Fire breath = 40 feet, Howl = 50 feet.
Woah! My bad. Just tried the 3 powers on Test.. playing a fire/nrj blaster with perma-boost range or fire/kin corruptor with dam/range really mess up your perceptions of cones.
However, Howl can't be 50 feet only. It looks like 60 feet at least.
Somehow, I thought EH wasn't as long. Thanks for setting me straight, now I'm seriously considering it for one of my rads.
Now to find a way to have Irradiate, Neutron Bomb AND Electron Haze in my build... Damn you, guys !
Easy, ditch neutron - 'tis only good for going: "FROM DOOOOOWWWNTOOOOOWWN!" with anyway
Which is why I *can't* ditch it.

[/ QUOTE ]NoFuture says 50, I trust that until you have test results to prove it wrong
Whats FS then? Fearsome Stare seems to be a massive cone

Only question I have is if you're only going to duo with this, why 3 recharge in Forge? It doesn't stack on itself so you shouldn't need 3 to keep one person perma forged.
It's for the times we do team with others, as is thaw.
I figured that, as the slots in it are the ones I normal call "spare slots". IE the ones at high level when you've fully slotted the last power
