Thugs/Pain build issues.
I'd say Hasten. If you're not taking the Thugs attacks, I'm not really sure why you need Hasten - your buffs and heals will be up often enough.
Well, you could probably skip the rez in pain. You can't use it on your pets and in a group between temp powers, veteran powers and the ability to combine inspirations a rez is not nearly as useful these days. Add in the fact that the primary extra you get from the rez (the damage boost) is pretty much useless to an MM and it looks pretty skippable to me.

here is my build presets
I took the mu attacks. cause as a pain mm you do need a attack of some kind. cause you get so much self buffs that would be a waste other wise.
He is about to hit 40. And so far is great. I rarely have trouble.

Howdy! I'm running a thugs/pain build right now that I really like at lv 22. The problem is that I'm having trouble fitting the powers I want into the build.
So I'm wondering what I should cut in order to fit everything else in.
I don't see ANY /Pain powers that I won't want to have at some point, and the only Thugs powers I'll want to skip are the attacks. I also want to get Flight, Hasten, one or two Leadership powers, Scorpion Shield, and Power Boost. It's too much! If I cut flight out and go for Super Speed, I'll be able to squeeze everything in, but I'd prefer not to give it up.
What should I cut out on my list?
Too many alts to list.
