At what point does 'More AoE' become 'Too Much AoE?'

Pfft yeaaahhh a dps god that has to have a force fielder or sonic defender ankle chained to them to survive. I was playing my rad/fire the other day on a full team. As I laid there, face first on the ground after getting off a single pbaoe before dieing horrifically, I watched the corruptors, scrappers, and brutes on my team fight on clearing the rest of the room without me. It occurred to me then... All the damage in the world doesn't mean anything when you're dead.

3-4 seems to be it for most sets (including your Nova style attack). I know it's a little crazy, but I actually dropped Flamethrower on my AR Blaster, as I needed more ST damage from time to time when soloing (I grabbed the Snipe... just to start things off well against a hard target or drop an annoying Sapper). Between M80, Buckshot, and Full Auto, that was more than enough for me. After that point, I needed to focus on ST damage to drop the boss, etc.

My Fire/MM is in this boat.

When you can solo the original Hamidon + Mitos, then you're getting close to the level of 'too much AoE'. Luckily, it is impossible, with current game mechanics, to do such a thing*.|
