Here's my standard stereotype Superman build for i19. :3 This build uses the 60 month vet badge allowing me to take Fly on its own.

Reserved slots for Health and Stamina have been placed into Sprint and Rest as always. Build makes use of a Gladiator's Armor which although expensive, is affordable if you're willing to put in the time to get it via Alignment Merits (yay). Softcapped to all but Psionic with just one enemy in range, although 42% to all but Psi with one enemy in range without the Gladiator is still nice (softcap to all with three enemies in range).

IO sets... this build only uses two sets of Reactive Armor and Kinetic Combat. I've started experimenting with sets which I haven't used before such as Pounding Slugfest and Eradication with surprising results... will have to remember these for the other typed defense alts I have, hehe.

For the Alpha slot, I will probably take Spiritual, unless the planned build uses more end than I thought (though it uses Physical Perfection as well, so I hope not; due to Stamina slots being in Rest, along with Numina Regen/Recovery and Miracle Recovery slots in Sprint, I can't check figures properly yet), then in which case, I will probably test with Cardiac (which has Resistance boost as well, so that might be a future option).

Still not completely sure on Conserve Energy either... might take Focused Accuracy with single slot End IO for those moments if Rectified Reticle: Increased Perception isn't enough (although I can't think of any really other than Widows using Smoke Grenade, Tarantulas using Mental Scramble, enemies using Hide/Stealth, and even then, is the IO enough on its own?)

You do know that you'll need 35 A-merits for that Glad Armor? And that you can earn ONE every two days? 70 days is one helluva lot of work to fall under the category of "affordable". Even if you do the "convert merits + 20 million inf route you're only cutting that time in half and still spending 250 million in conversion costs. I do use A-merits for things like LotG 7.5% recharge and a few other very expensive normal IO's but those only cost 2 A-merits.

I think you'll do better to swap some things around and accept a lower defense to the very rare F/C damage types. Slotting the full Mocking Beratement set in Taunt for example will gain you 2.5% S/L and 3.125% F/C defense along with another 7.5% recharge... and it's dirt cheap. You can pick up significant E/N defense with a full set of Thunderstrike... 3.75% worth of it.

Personally I just can't see using the Glad Armor proc; it's way too expensive in terms of either influence or time for the amount of benefit it provides. I always look at that and think "I can fully slot out 5-10 level 50 characters with optimal IO builds for what that one IO costs". I seldom have more than 300 million - 500 million in a complete build.

It's only 30. Heh, Only.

I'm almost there, myself. 4 more (8 days) to go.

It's a nice build. Like CMA, I'm a little dubious about the Gladiator's Armor proc, though -- not because it's too expensive; obviously, you can do what you like with your play money, and the goal is certainly achievable if you really like that one character so much.

But Tanker Invulnerability is in an odd place with respect to that proc. On the one hand, it's easy enough to soft-cap an Invuln Tanker for S/L/N/E, which represent the bulk of the attacks you'll see in the game. On the other hand, Invuln basically has no hope of soft-capping to psionics with or without the proc (yes, I've seen builds that can do it, but they sacrifice unduly elsewhere, IMO).

The question is whether you gain enough in terms of unique build opportunities through use of the proc. In my view, the answer is no. Fire/Cold is flat-out not worth soft-capping unless you're just obsessive-compulsive about seeing pretty numbers on your display. Psionics would be worthwhile, but it's practically unachievable.

In any case, I'm not sure I can make any specific suggestions here because you seem to be theme-bound (Energy Mastery and whatnot), and you obviously know what you're doing when it comes to manipulating IOs. For what little it's worth, what follows is my tentative I-19 build, with which I plan to take advantage of the Cardiac Alpha boost (that's why S/L RES may look a little low):

If you're dead-set on the Gladiator's Armor proc, I'd recommend buying up LoTGs with A-Merits instead, because they give you roughly the same influence value per unit time, and they allow you to cash out a lot faster if you change your mind. That once-per-day limit on A-Merit spending is a real bizatch if you have more than a couple saved up, and especially if you decide you want to switch alignment in the middle. (You lose all banked A-Merits when you switch alignments.)

Oh I'm not questioning that it's an effective build, just that the cost/benefit ratio is pretty bad. If the OP really wants to invest that much into the character then yes, it will work. I just think that he can get about the same result for vastly less effort and influence

Yes, I'd agree here. I've been stockpiling LotG 7.5% IO's for some time now... admittedly also slotting them on other characters. Each one only represents 4 days of work, typically about 40 minutes per day. You can also accumulate them with multiple characters, something you can't do for the PvP IO's since you can't trade or email A-Merits... you have to accumulate all of them on a single character.

I think we mostly agree Obitus; the build the OP had is effective, but that 99.99% of that effectiveness can be had for VASTLY less effort.

Hrm. Taking into light about Fire/Cold and the Gladiator, I've removed it, and shuffled a few slots to keep Smash/Lethal and Energy/Negative still at softcap, and Fire/Cold at 42%. I lose a little bit of global recharge, but the Alpha slot will definitely be the Spiritual one now, hehe.

I do have a Gladiator saved up, but I will probably let my Fire/Shield Scrapper or SS/SR Brute use it to free up slots to allow them to take an AoE attack. :3

Oh, and I changed Boxing into Kick since I threw some slots into it. Since I have Punch to add into my chain now, Kick can be for amusement rather than off the power tray.

If you decide to take Focused Accuracy instead of Conserve Energy, you can move some slots around to get Rage 2 slotted with Recharge and Focused Accuracy 6 slotted. The proc will have a chance to trigger once every 10 seconds that way, instead of once every 112 seconds.

Though, I'd argue that 42.1% defense is close enough to the cap that you don't really need the extra 3% from an enhancement, you can just try to keep 3 enemies in range.

I decided not to go with Focused Accuracy in the end. After seeing Taunt sets (as well as the Brute forum, haha), however, I thought about possibly removing one set of Kinetic Combat out of the planned build. With this, I've managed to push everything except Psi up to 45.1% def with one enemy in range (the four Luck of the Gambler 7.5%s will be at level 30 to allow me to stack Rage at lower level TFs/SFs, providing I don't go below level 27).

Pulled the slots from Kick, and one from Knockout Blow, and one from Jab. However, to make up for Knockout Blow with 'only' five slots, I'll be using two purples from Hecatome. I think I have them stored away somewhere for a rainy day, and if not, then I'll use Crushing Impacts.
