lol.
the only farming that i enjoy is at the Cimerora walls, wich i'm doing it very fast and very effective with my AR/DEV blaster (not the usual combo for farming from the little i know)
also, i have a strong feeling that my ss/elec brute (softcap S/L) would be devastating at farming

If you're softcapped to S/L, one purple would solve the defense debuff problem.

Well reading these posts (thx everyone for your help and input) I noticed that some of you say elec/kin farm similar to fire/kin just not as quick.
My question regarding those people that have experienced elec/kin is do you think they can satisfy someones need for wanting a farm toon, being that I haven't experienced playing as a fire/kin?
Again asking this because I really really like a superhero having electricity powers more then fire and have a theme for an elec toon whereas I don't really have one for a fire toon.
Also, how much slower are elec/kin to fire/kin you think?
I'm not looking to be a crazy build. probably farm like +1 or +2 x6 mobs. Just something to get money rolling in faster then it is right now.
Again thx very much for everyones input. I know I should just give in and make a fire/kin, but thx for being good spirited about my situation haha.

If you are looking still at a non-tradition farmer, there are other builds that still work without caving into making a Fire/kin. I have a Fire/kin. Fire/kins are overrated.

Doing it that way a scrapper, or brute would be easy to do. I use something that has at least 2 AoEs. AoEs can come the secondary via a damage aura, or something like Shield Charge, Burn, etc. You could also take any lesser used blaster combo, have them use Hover to keep attacks coming in being ranged, top out ranged def, and do the same as well. A lesser used combo might be Rad/mental, which is going to have a bunch of AoEs.
