The anti-scrapper power? I'd rather take aid self on my /regens.

I dunno, I think it's fun to send things flying on occasion. Useful? Not especially, perhaps to toss a bunch of melee types away from a squishy or something, or to get a moment to breathe if you've attracted a horde. But fun? Heck yeah. I'd miss it.

My thoughts were RoF/char, fire blast, fireball/blaze.
Hopefully Dark oblit will be the 5th power available if you first pick 2 from darkness mastery.
Man, what to scarifice on some of my tighter builds for these...

Here's to hoping we get Consume to make up for CP's loss *when switching from Body to Blaze.

I frankly don't know how my future elec/SD/Blaze will survive without either CP or Dark Consumption.

We're not losing Conserve Power.

The Electric Armor set is getting a change from Conserve Power to Energize, which I understand is going to be some form of self heal.

Really, it makes more sense to change the set that hasn't gone live yet, rather than remove a power that will break probably thousands of already existing builds.

They also mentioned it coming earlier in the set, probably at level 20.

We're not going to. It's in Fiery Aura so it's not going to be in Blaze Mastery unless they decide to change that one too (which I doubt since Consume is actually a power worth taking in a primary).

Yeah, im not sure what I can drop to get fireball ball either. I'd be happy with blast which I think u can get for two powers, although the aoe for ma/sr would be sweet. I know I can give up one power without second though, but would probably have to get rid of an attack from ma to just have the slots and power for another, and i'm already at a minimalist attack chain + DT or big groups.

If nothing else, It will give me a reason to respec my main and get some of the newer IOs, as he was pimped out with the first round of IOs, and hasn't messed with any of the new ones.

I'd expect to see a build soon for yall to critique. I'm not really sure how you would get soft-cap and still have a decent attack chain from MA with fireball or blast being extra. i took warriors challenge at 49 for a power with no slots needed, and I could drop elude as I only use it pvp, and only pvp once in a blue moon, although it does come in handy some pve, but not enough really.

I guess bottom line at least for me at the moment, is there are still too many variables out there for me to start thinkin too much about it yet.

By switching to an epic that does.

Not sure what you were aiming at. Are you saying Blaze will have Consume? Because if I say that switching from one epic to the other I might not have the endurance and your reply is to not switch, well... Pointless reply is pointless.

Badly worded, quick posted. I meant, losing CP by switching from the Body epic to Blaze.

Nope it wasn't. You say you might not have the endurance if you switch to Blaze Mastery. My solution was to switch to an epic that will help you with your end management, and of course, that would be Body Mastery. If you're going to switch epics so you can lose CP in return for more damage and increased end consumption, that's your loss.

I can't wait to get to get another tool to melt faces with on at least my FM/SR and MA/WP. Probably my Spines/SR and Fire/SR scrappers will get this, too.

That reminds me. If it is the same as the tanker set, it will have char, a single target 1dmg dot hold. So all you "take pet gaze for sappers" people can have your cake and burn them too.
