I think a lot of pvp bubblers might want to throw eggs at you for that idea. 
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

Force Bubble is the last power in the Force Field set but imo it doesn't suit the "Defense" concept of Force Fields.
[/ QUOTE ]That's because the FF set doesn't have such a consept.
Force Bubble's power description:
[ QUOTE ]
Creates a large bubble which protects all allies inside. While active, this power keeps all foes at bay, protecting all allies inside from melee or short ranged attacks. More powerful foes may be able to penetrate the Force Bubble, but may slip and get knocked down and forced back if they try.

Seems pretty 'defensive' to me, so I'm failing to see the problem.

Stuff
It actually fits very well because the whole concept of Force Field revolves around keeping stuff outside of the bubbles to protect the team. While the usual buffs can only manage to keep attacks out of it, deflecting them elsewhere, Force Bubble is so powerful it can even deflect foes themselves.

I'd like to see it made stronger in that regard but only when villains have more than MMs-only access to the FF powerset.

My suggestion is to changed it to something along the lines of "Unstoppable" for 60 seconds with a 120 second downtime?
It could cap Resistance and give say 50% defense to all?
What do you guys think?
