They do need someone to do their damage for them, though.
My Kin/Psi works perfectly well, his second build has primary, secondary and epics only. Not sure what levelling would be like; I reckon there'd be a LOT of endurance reduction slotting until transference came along.
But doesn't it kind of defeat the challenge aspect? To set a challenge like that and then find a powerset combo that can do it relatively easily?
Try it on something a little less amenable; a Fire/Dark scrapper, maybe.

Given that I don't pvp anymore ( I13 grr-ness ) I'm considering tweaking my build to turn her into a big-bad-monster solo-er.
Jack & eochai will be first, but if I manage to beat them I will try Lusca :S
Have tried Jack previously, pre-purples, and was just taking waaaay too long to drop so I duo-ed up with a blaster.
Will let you know how it goes when/if I try it

I badged a whole level with my Ma/Shield, that took me awhile.
Currently building my ill/storm to be able to solo av´s.
You forgot the RWZ challenges and Pylon challenges or the modified rwz challenge where a pylon attacks you while defeating a 4+spawn with 3 bosses.
Theres also the Gaussian arc challenge but thats more for scrappers.
Oh and blasters can solo avs. They also have their own version of the rwz challenge:

Havent found any rwz challenge rules for troller though.

Is there some where all these challenges are listed sounds like a good way to judge how my brutes are doing.

Has anyone ever leveled throuhg to 50 only taking pool/Ancillary powers from lvl 6 onwards?
lvl 1 One Primary and One Secondary
lvl 2 One Primary OR One Secondary
lvl 4 One Primary OR One Secondary
lvl 6 One Pool Power (1st Pool)
lvl 8 One Pool Power (2nd Pool)
etc
You get 24 powers by lvl 50, so the first 4 powers from your Primary/Secondary plus 4 pools each with 4 powers and all 4 powers from 1 Ancillary pool = 24 powers.
Would think it's possible, but you're going to have very limited firepower. Which pools would you go with?
[/ QUOTE ]
A number of people did this on the US servers back when I was playing on them. You weren't actually allowed to use any powers from your Primary and Secondary (taking passives was cheating) and the real men chose Controllers rather than Tanks so they didn't get an hp boost
They actually weren't that bad, especially if you had a few regularly team together and all take the Leadership pool.
However, it turned out that Smith was not a time-travelling Terminator
I'd like a 50 of every villain AT, myself. Sadly I can't stand how widows pre-24 play, so I can't be arsed to level one up.. As for the others, I just haven't found the right powerset combo yet. Ah well. Maybe one of each hero as well, but hero ATs (except Warshades) are boring so I'll likely leave them for last.
My MM most likely could solo a GM if only they didn't RUN AROUND IN PANIC ALL THE TIME UNTIL THEY GET DRONED [censored]. Ahem. Yeah, if I could get one to hold still, I'd totally kill it. But villain GMs are cowards. Soloing AVs is usually cake, unless they have fancy gimmicks that directly counter me. Soloing a TF I'd probably be too lazy and easily-bored to attempt, but maybe someday.
500 badges on my main is another goal of mine I'm slowly creeping towards.

Ill/rad could still solo lusca in I12 at least. Saw it done. Also I took down 3 tentacles with mine before I got bored and left. Was taking 15 minutes a tentacle, but was before I got epics as I was only level 37. So yes with a better attention span than me Lusca can be solo'd (doesn't require IOs either)
Edit: I was going to go with 1 of every not EAT at 50 but I dont like Corruptors or Stalkers at all so I cant see it happening. On the other hand I'm rather taken with the crab spiders.
I dont want to go with any of the "one of each.... to 50" anymore cause if I dont already have a powerset or AT its probably because I dont like it. Then again I do have over 50 alts at the moment so have quite a few combinations covered

[/ QUOTE ]I'd only end up dragging my partner along myself, since I level faster (on average) than anyone else I know, apparently.
Except Ced, but he only plays Heroes.
I'm guessing you couldn't form a team in PD and then do a leveling pact?

Using the dual build system it is now possible for your character to have no powers at all....
I really should do something about this signature.
Been busy recently, so had no time to post... but this might even resurrect the thread!!!

1. Solo an AV.
[/ QUOTE ]Yep done this on my Claws/Regen scrapper, but still can't defeat Nosferatu though... he's a real pain when you only have 3 ranged attacks.
[ QUOTE ]
2. Solo a GM.
[/ QUOTE ] Had my scrapper been high enough way back in i3, then I would have said yes.. but sadly not managed it yet.
[ QUOTE ]
3. Solo a TF?
[/ QUOTE ]Yep, Positron and Synapse definitely. The only ones that wouldn't be possible, would be ones that needed simultaneous clicks like the Cavern of Transcendance trial.

4. Master of.....
[/ QUOTE ] You could do it on other tf's so long as you take a screenie of the completion box. But why would you? The only reason to do this would be for the challenge...

5. Weird builds!
[/ QUOTE ]Have various projects on the go... 1) Have a lvl 35 DB/SR scrapper that only uses salvage/enhancements/recipes etc... that drop. Have not used any influence to purchase anything. Was hard going at the beginning, but ok now with standard IOs, but sets are a real pain. My vault storage is completely full of rare salvage, and my AH slots are all full of other types of salvage that I Store until I can craft something. takes a lot of time, dedication and organisation to get the best out of received items...
2) Have a lvl 22 tanker that street fights only. This has taken a while to build up as can get quite tedious at times, especially as soloing all the way to 50.
Had other ones in the past, but it's one way of keeping the game interesting for me, as recently got my 42 month badge.

You mean the person playing it? Between FS, Aim, PBU and Siphon Power keeping damage at a decent level isn't that hard on any Kin including Kin/Elec.
I didn't quite manage the getting to 50 without taking a travel pool - I took hover at 49

Is there one which doesn't need stamina and can gain it's own "Travel" type power?
[/ QUOTE ]
Kin/Elec defenders don't really need stamina or a travel power, I might dual build mine and see if it's *actually* viable ( i took SJ in order to get accrobatics )
