TF duo

Hey guys, Im no tf pro Im a farming pro, but a friend of mine loves taskforces hes done alot for me so I decided I would make a taskforce duo with him and would pay for both of our builds, cost isn't a problem ive got plenty of money villain or hero side, I have much more hero side so if I would rather make heroes but ether or is fine. Does anyone have any suggestions for two toons that could run every task force (cept respec tf I sapose) well together?

DM/SD scrapper and a Cold/Sonic defender. Should be able to run everything without problems.

What Silas said. That combo should decimate everything it comes across.

But, why not the respec trial? There is at least one TF you can't duo (multiple glowies at once), but the Hero respec trial is trivially easy. The last time I failed it, we had 2 level 27 characters manually sidekicking 2 level 24 characters, no buff/debuff (1 Tank, 2 Scrap, 1 Blast), no IO's, and level 31 enemies spawning for a team of 6, and we almost won.

Plant/Rad and Fire/Mental. None of the AVs found in the signature TFs, with the possible exception of Bile, are very difficult, and Jurassik is basically a giant sack of HP to hit a few times.

Alright so I guess my next question would be suggestions on a DM/SD build for that, cold/sonic I can handle but I haven't had the best of luck with DM/SD, not much expierance in the DM department.

One more question, why /SD? I would think /SR could do it better besides the fact of holding agro compared to shield.

On the contrary, /SD has a taunt aura and only Brute /SR has one (they modified Evasion when they ported it over), not Scrapper /SR. Against All Odds may not be the tauntiest taunt aura, but it's better passive aggro management than /SR will provide.

As to why /SD vs. /SR: if you're paired with a cold defender, the ice shields stacked on top of your normal defenses should softcap either scrapper. Other than defense, the only thing /SR provides is Quickness and superior defense debuff protection. /SD would provide significant damage buffing through Against All Odds, weak but non-zero resistances, +max hp, and Shield Charge, one of the best AoE attacks around. If you can get fully saturated Against All Odds and Soul Drain, DM/SD scrappers can self-boost their damage by over 200%, resulting in some of the highest DPS numbers of any AT.

I'd like to add a Fire/Rad Corrupter into the mix. Just duo'd an LGTF with mine last night.

I'd like to put in a vote for a fire/fire tank and a fire/rad controller, been doing that pact bonded with a friend of mine and theres nothing we've found so far it can't handle. You even have the Immob to use Burn, which speeds up boss and AV fights a lot. Also makes a great team nucleus for doing any TF, since unless you absolutely insist on duoing only, a lot of TFs will be easier with a larger team. Offensive build on the tank for duoing, shift to a Defensive with Tough/Weave for larger teams where you don't have to put out the damage.

I don't know if anyone has duoed the STF, but I'd be rather surprised if they have, as I've never seen a team of 6 finish it successfully (I'm sure speciality teams of 5 defenders and a tank have managed, but I"m talking mostly PUGs here).

It's certainly an extremely difficult task. Only other one I know that was completed was Kahlan's and Horus' that Nord posted, although I've heard chatter of others completing it too.
