My vote is Kat/WP .....ok damage is not spectacular but you can soft cap range and AOE and Melee with one application of DA. Against one foe Regen can be 75ish HP/sec and 112 HP /sec against 10.
Pop a couple of performance shifter chance for + endurance in and stamina os no problem
Just wish I could egt the darn DPS up !!!!
Mmmm, maybe Fire/Shield, fully IO'd and with Aid Self? On the survival side, you have a self heal, soft-capped defenses, 95% defense debuff resistance to handle Cimerorans and such, extra hit points, and at least passable resistance. On the damage side, you can do crazy DPS plus farming levels of AoE.

Yeah, Katana/Willpower would be an excellent choice if it weren't for the DPS and AoE issues. Not that its damage output is bad; it's just very middle of the road. On the survivability side, though, Iggy Kamakaze soloed a MoITF with no temps and no inspirations on his. Massive survivability.

DB/SR
Katana/SR
MA/SR
Katana/WP

BS/Elec
... probably a few others.
I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.
The most durable and fastest killing scrapper I've played so far is my BS/Shield... it's fully capable of actually tanking the ITF. Tanking the STF would be a bit tougher, but I've never had an issue playing that scrap as a main tank on the ITF. It also outputs some really incredible damage.
As much as I've enjoyed both of my regens I wouldn't take them on a Master run as first choice... they're too vulnerable to sudden spike damage. You could manage it, but if you're playing a scrapper to it's maximum effectiveness (in other words, on the edge of disaster) there's MUCH less margin for error than in some other sets. True there's a bit of that with a soft capped shield, but usually the random number generator doesn't hate you several times in a row giving you a chance to react. When things go bad on a regen it's usually over too fast to do anything about.
This presupposes that you haven't soft capped your regen of course... my BS/Regen probably could make an adequate showing with his 35% Range/AOE and soft capped Melee def. Unfortunately it's a choice of the BS/Regen or the BS/Shield for me and the shield wins that comparison. At least it does at 50... if I exemped down into the <35 range the BS/Regen is superior.
COH has just been murdered by NCSoft. http://www.change.org/petitions/ncso...city-of-heroes
My fire/shield has tanked romi when the tank quit. My Kat/SR is softcapped and has an amazing amount of recharge with aid self as well. I'd would say those are my two most "immortal" scrappers that I have. The theme is softcapped defense based on my experience and what I am reading, but almost any scrapper can do it that wants to. The fire/shield is probably the easiest scrapper I ever leveled however where the SR suffered a wee bit against some enemies in the lower levels. The Kat/SR however has survived team wipes against Infernal, and I have typed back, "would you guys mind hurrying back from the hospital, I really need to get to sleep soon?"
Of course, if you really want to be immortal, you need a kilt wearing Broadsword/regen running around yelling "There can be only one".
I'll second Fire/Shield with Aid Self. It's survivability isn't quite as high as DM/Shield, due to SL, and using Aid Self will lower your DPS, but SD won't be killing your AAO fodder, so it's got a bit better sustainability during long fights while still maintaining excellent DPS.
As a caveat, I don't know how easy soft-capping and keeping 95% DDR is on a Fire/Shield if your taking the Medicine Pool, so this is something I'd have to play around in Mids to find out. Failing this, I'd say DM/Shield as SL will assist immensely with survivability and allow you to keep attacking. The only issue is reliable fodder for SD and AAO being around without specifically preparing for it. This holds especially true in a teaming situation as the team wil likely destroy the minions/Lts before you're done killing the Boss/EB/AV.
edit: added DDR into the caveat.

Yeah, good point. It WILL be a bit of a trick to soft cap and keep 95% DDR on Fire/Shield with the Medicine pool. I'm only guessing that it's possible. I haven't tried and haven't paid enough attention to people's Fire/Shield builds.|

I'll need to start paying attention, since I now have one at 29, and the orange numbers floating up already seem as big as the numbers from my Katana/Dark. Might be wanting to IO this one out.
For pure immortality, my soft-capped Katana/Dark is my most survivable scrapper by far (see sig), but has a serious Achilles' heel - defense debuffs. He can farm the wall in Cimerora with no problem, but +4x8 Cimerorans average about one face plant per group. Arachnos is doable at +4x8, but involves several face plants per mission. Also difficult to recommend due to generally poor damage output.
Dark Melee/Shield Defense is excellent for single-target damage, but not so much on AoE. That's why I was recommending Fire/Shield, assuming that the pros I gave are actually possible on a real build.

DM/Invul is a good option as well. You're lacking in AoE and your defense has a huge hole when it comes to psi damage. But it's incredibly tough and has good ST damage. My buddy tanked Lord Recluse in the STF two nights ago using his. Only heals we had at that time was a kin defender, so he wasn't much help until we managed to get down the correct tower.
Quote:
Yeah, DM/Invuln has the record for simultaneous dev AVs soloed no temps no insps. I can't remember the number. Something insane like 8 or 9. It has awesome survivability in its element. But as you say, psi hole, lacking in AoE, and merely good DPS.

Agreed on /Invuln. My wife's BS/Invuln is extremely tough fully IO'd out, but the Psi hole is quite terrible on certain mobs/AVs. As an alternative, if you can't get 95% DDR, soft-cap, and Aid Self in a Fire/Shield, then perhaps Fire/SR. Mine's IO'd out and has no issues with AVs as long they aren't immune/highly resistant to fire. With /SR, you have no psi hole, soft-capping and attaining 95% DDR is easy while still squeezing in Aid Self. The downside is that /SR doesn't have /Shield's AAO for the higher ST damage and Shield Charge, which is immensely fun. |

Why not just do DM/SR instead of Fire/SR? You get siphon life and an excellent attack chain. Besides, MunkiLord is DM/SR and I love him. Though I don't think /SR is the right answer in general.

I would need to know what your budget was around to really be able to help. Some builds can be made into gods for very cheap, some can be made even better but can cost a fortune.
Here is a semi-cheap (no purples, PVP IO's) softcapped fire/shield with aid self. It comes with a huge disclaimer though. The dev's are in the process of fixing the ability to "supercharge" the numina proc (leading me to believe the miracle proc will get the axe too), which will most likely knock the endurance down to unsustainable levels, even with conserve power. DDR isn't capped at all times, but will be up a lot of the time. It also has lower accuracy than I prefer but without knowing a budget I can't assume you can afford purples and PVP IO's.

The dev comment was kind of cryptic. If I understand what Umbral says about it though, all they're doing is fixing a bug where health enhancement in Physical Perfection also boosted the +recovery of the Numina proc, and endurance enhancement in Physical Perfection also boosted the +regeneration. I'm guessing that the Miracle proc didn't have this bug, and thus wasn't fixed and won't be fixed because there's nothing to fix. Crossing my fingers, anyway, because my Katana/Dark depends on that Miracle for sustainability.

Yeah, a little clarification on what is desired would help. I read the request as "best survivability, best single target DPS, best AoE, no compromises". Most people are fixating largely on the "make me immortal" portion of the request, and perhaps that IS the most important part, since it's the thread title. But "damage of monster proportions" was also requested.|

I suspect that 200 DPS could be reached with a small drop in survivability, and on paper I've seen 217 DPS for a bigger drop in survivability (though still at the soft cap). Still, that isn't nearly enough DPS to compete with the big boys, and the AoE is negligible. Also, it's noticeably less survivable than my Katana/Dark in most situations, shining only when defense debuffs are involved. Granted, that does probably describe the ITF, but I have no ITF experience with either character to comment intelligently.

Crossing my fingers as well then, my fire/shield would be losing ~50% regen if they "fix" the numina and by association the regenerative tissue procs.

I ask because I need a battleship that can stand and never fall on "Master Ofs" and can change the flow of an AV battle with a solid attack chain.

OK, drifting off topic, but I'd really like this clarified, and I'm too lazy to search for other discussions of it. Did I give a correct description of the bug? I only have one character with Physical Perfection, and I have NO health enhancement slotted in it, and only have the Miracle proc in it, so I can't verify without going to a lot of trouble.|

To be more clear on my understanding of the bug, let's say we have 50% heal enhancement, 50% endurance enhancement, and the Miracle, Numina and Regenerative tissue procs in Physical Perfection. Prior to the bug fix to Numina, we would have this:
Code:
Regen Tissue: 25% regeneration + (25% * 50% end) + (25% * 50% heal) = 50% regeneration
Numina: 20% regeneration + (20% * 50% end) + (20% * 50% heal) = 40% regeneration
10% recovery + (10% * 50% end) + (20% * 50% heal) = 20% recovery
Miracle: 15% recovery + (15% * 50% end) + (15% * 50% heal) = 30% recovery
Code:
Regen Tissue: 25% regeneration + (25% * 50% end) + (25% * 50% heal) = 50% regeneration
Numina: 20% regeneration + (20% * 50% heal) = 30% regeneration
10% recovery + (10% * 50% end) = 15% recovery
Miracle: 15% recovery + (15% * 50% end) + (15% * 50% heal) = 30% recovery
Code:
Regen Tissue: 25% regeneration + (25% * 50% heal) = 37.5% regeneration
Numina: 20% regeneration + (20% * 50% heal) = 30% regeneration
10% recovery + (10% * 50% end) = 15% recovery
Miracle: 15% recovery + (15% * 50% end) = 22.5% recovery

Katana/Regeneration has great peak performance, but is VERY sensitive to mistakes when you're playing near the limit. One mistake and you're dead in seconds. That's fine if you're willing to, say, try ten times to beat Infernal before you finally succeed. That's TERRIBLE if you're trying to do "Master Of" runs.

Thank you! OK, so now we know it can be done. Looks like you're running Incinerate -> Scorch -> Cremate -> Scorch? It's not the top DPS chain, but it's a very good DPS chain, and the chain I would likely run in a general-purpose build. And while I haven't checked in detail, endurance usage looks MORE than sustainable, even though you skipped Stamina. Nice! That's just the kind of monster I was thinking of when I saw the original post.

Hi all, I've been out of the seriousness of scrapping for a while and been focusing on other things, and now that I'm back, I am wondering.. Is there a scrapper out there that is practically invincible? One that can sit in the middle of the Cyst mission in the ITF and not flinch? One that puts out damage of monster proportions without hindering his defenses, all while maintaining his endurance to a reasonable level? I ask because I need a battleship that can stand and never fall on "Master Ofs" and can change the flow of an AV battle with a solid attack chain. If one of these mythical beasts exist, please, do tell. Thanks.
