The 2 sets don't mesh as well as I hoped either, MA is all about single target (except Dragons Tail, which I happen to love) and INV definetly functions better with a mob around you which works out better for a set heavy with AoE. I've found Regen to be an awesome pairing with MA. Sorry, didn't really answer your post, I've found it hard to stick with INV for very long even though I'v seen some amazing things done with it.
Well, with Inv you're probably looking at wanting to soft-cap to S/L with one foe in range, if you're going for max survivability. You could also aim for a perma-DP build, which would mesh well with MA since it wants lot of recharge to run the high end chains. It may be possible to do both, but being that I'm not much for planning good builds, I don't really know.
Soft-capped with a goodly amount of recharge should give you the badassery you're looking for though.

I am sorry that is a bit contradicting. For a set that works well with a lot of enemies in range, you should get a powerset that kills a lot of enemies in range.|

Going to have to say the opposite for me. With a lot of enemies in range it is nice to be able to take them out one at a time knowing that more enemies power me up.
SO wise, yes /Inv is a solid set for Scraps, IO wise, I have to say in my opinion it is better than even /WP. I got mine IOed out, I have softcapped to everything with one enemy in range, 12 seconds down on Dull Pain, which is nice because DP puts me at the HP cap. I have to say I feel I can do more than most Scrapper sets. Soft capped defenses to everything, Capped S/L resists, mid range resists to F/C/E/N and a self heal that caps HP.
As for MA, I am not an attack numbers person, nor a dps person, nor do I care to be, MA is sexy and kills, it may not do it as fast as other sets, but I can solo /x8 maps easily. I would say my build is an expensive one, but I paid for everything that was expensive on the market with Hero Merits, expect for the purple sets, which were an even trade, when I got a purple drop I traded for the recipe I needed.

Looking for some idea of how to spec an MA/invuln. While the SOs do fine, I still feel like this build can be so much more. The only issue is that this is my first invuln I've ever played so I don't really know the set that well.
Any suggestions?
