Hey guys! Any and all suggestions are welcome, I am not a numbers guy, I THINK I did ok but if you guys see wasted slots, dumb decisions, etc, let me know so I can correct. This is the build I am currently running, based on ideas I've seen floating around the forum in this wonderful community (please ignore the level selection for powers and slots, this was just done as quickly as possibly to get your guys input):

I found that I got much more use out of the Medicine pool for those hits that manage to hit rather than the Fighting pool for MA/SR.

Also, although Air Superiority is a good power (I slot it with 2 Acc for KDs), you have a couple of other very nice powers that you're missing--Crippling Axe Kick and (the new) Cobra Strike. CS in particular is nice, as it does as much damage now as Crane Kick, but has a 75% chance for stun.

Please try my arcs:

Arc# 63910 "Why Do Bad Girls Like Bad Boys?" (length=Long, levels 40+)
Arc# 401500 "How to Be a Successful Professional Criminal" (length=Very Long, levels 1-10)

Kinrad · 09-10-2010 12:10 PM

I'm going to guess Crane Kick can currently hit a target across an outdoor map... I APPROVE!

Make a man a fire and keep him warm for the day, SET a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life.
Incarnates: K'lir(Fire/Dark Corr):Hot-House Flower(Plant/Fire Dom):Kinrad X(Kin/Rad Def):Itsy-Bitsy Spider(Crab):Two Ton Tony(Mace/WP Broot):Teeny Weeny Widow(Fortunata/Widow) : Zeroth Law (Ice/Fire Tank)

If im honest man your way of the mark with this build ...

If your going to IO and /SR toon you have to hit the defence soft cap or its a waste of time. (trust me find the post on the forum ... type city of heroes softcap into google) and you will find out why the 45% def on melee,range,AoE is a MUST!!!

you not far tbh but its the last 5% from 40%-45% that turns you from decent to GOD

My toon has concept of super speed but is dosnt effect you fly version because i didnt slot it ...

This is my current build on my 50 MA/SR Sam Swift (Union)

I achieve perma Practiced brawler and the soft defence cap of 45% with just 4 toggles ... Focused fighting, senses, evasion and Weave

i also slotted fairly heavily for +recov as MA/SR is end heavy toon.

Once again i strongly recomend you research the softcap before spending money on your toon!

hope this helps
