Fire/MM Builds
No hover blasting? How about Combat Jumping? That additional defense doesn't look like much, but it'll save you millions in influence trying to match it with IO bonuses.
Too many alts to list.
well, yeah you need SOME sort of small defense bonus. Uhm...regardless at level 50 you're going to want some IO sets in some of your key powers.
like positron blast in your fireball, psychic scream, and fire breath powers.
you'll also want obliteration in your psychic shockwave and maybe in your inferno if you desire.
besides that some good enhancements should do you fine, don't slot the sniping power either, trust me, not worth it.
your cones/aoe are going to be the best, uhm..I also suggest putting thunderstrike in blaze, the damage bonus isn't as much as straight damage IO's but overall it makes it much more efficient.
stamina 4 slots with either end enhancers or maybe even a numina IO set partial.
you're gonna wanna slot subdue but I'm not sure what enhances you want.
besides that, just go with your gut....
you might find devastation useful too, not sure.
=]
ghost widow's glare if it's available to heroes might help with I believe subdue.
Magisterum- 50+3 Fortunata--Virtue
Lukerion- 33 Emp/Rad Defender--Virtue
Noah Heartily- 34 SS/SD brute- Virtue
Mika Heartily- 50+1 Fire/MM blaster-Virtue
You don't offer many requirements, so I'll share the S/L softcap build that I'm toying with at the moment. Recharge is so-so compared to purp builds, but it hits the S/L softcap and Endurance shouldn't be a problem at all.

Hello all,
I am finally getting around to IOing out my Fire/MM blaster (He's been sitting for months as i've tried to figure out a build). I am thinking of going for a soft capped S/L Def build, but i'm having a hard time coming up with one where it doesn't feel like i'm chasing set bonuses and slighting other powers. I searched the forums and found a few that i have been messing around on Mids with, but just can't get it right. I was wondering if you guys could post some Mid's builds. I don't like Hover blasting which is why i was looking at S/L Def. I have about 1.5 bil or so i can spend on him, so i'm looking to avoid most of the purp sets.
