Hey All,

So my team consists of 2 Fire/Rad's and a Plant/Kin. Now with all the debuffs available (RI,EM and LR) do I need to bother taking Tough/Weave/Maneuvers?

I will have the leadership pool cause I want to run Assault and Tactics, so I guess that Maneuvers can come along but I was wondering if I need to bother with any buffs other then AM/SB?

My team is mostly for running Mish's, although I assume I can handle AV's with all the Debuffs/Pets I would bring along.

Thoughts? Opinions?

With two /Rads nothing should be able to hit you anyway unless you are fighting +4s or something. That's assuming the Rads are actually played... if you are triple boxing and running all three characters yourself some defense isn't a bad idea since it will probably take longer to get things debuffed.

I'd say take Maneuvers and call it a day since you'll already be taking the Leadership pool. Endurance won't be any problem with that team, and having an extra 12% defense or so (assuming all three use Maneuvers) added to whatever minor defense each character has from Combat Jumping or Hover or whatever will stack nicely with your Rad debuffs if you do fight +3s or +4s. It will also help a little when things are too spread out to debuff everyone. It won't matter against anything near your level because everything will die too fast to notice.

And yes, two Fire/Rads and a Plant/Kin should eat most AVs alive. That's a lot of damage and enough debuffs to basically turn an AV into a punching bag.
