Bots/traps is definitely an AFK build. Some brute builds are probably tougher, the difference being that when you come back to the keyboard the MM's bots will have cleared the room.
Slot some defence in the protector bots, it helps their bubbles.
A little Endurance Reduction in protector bots keeps them from running out of blue bars in long fights. You don't appreciate how nice those heals/bubbles are until they stop throwing 'em.
Search the forum for "bodyguard mode" to make yourself even more AFK compliant.
I would NOT put off upgrade robot to level 35. Take it at level 32 and let the fireworks ensue. Aid Other with your 4 minute bubbles should be plenty along with mutual protector bot heals to delay if not obsoleting the need for Repair. I am just saying repair will be required a LOT less than if you were /dark or some other non-defensive build.

I like your build; I just tweaked it a bit. With manuvers a little earlier, it will help with the tough patch between 20 and 26.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
Thanks for the tips, I was just kind of guessing so thats helpful.
As the topic says its been a couple years since I've played.
I've been leveling up my Bots/FF MM, and am looking for some help on power selection. Currently I'm not concerned with what IO's to slot partially due to the fact I need to look into them ( I don't know much about IO's I remeber SO's ). What I'm looking for is what power choices to take and when. I will probably be solo alot and have kids and possibly another on the way so I'm looking for a build that (as much as I hate saying it) I can go afk from time to time while farming.
What I have so far is :

As I said I'm basically just looking for some of the expierenced players to maybe help with suggestions with the which and whens of the powers, am I taking certain abilities to late in life or to early, am I missing anything important, have I taken anything I don't need ect.
I appreciate any input you all can give and thank you in advance.
