carnies? Farming at +4/x8 has proven fatal against fire and s/l damage so far but with only ~50% resistance to s/l and 42% to fire (including soft cap defense to each via powers and inspirations) just doesn't cut it. I'm going to respec eventually out of weapons mastery (took it for caltrops + reactive but that is getting fixed).

You're missing a key component. S/L defense.

I used to farm Carnies with a Spines/DA. That combo seems made for the task. S, L, Psi defense and end drain resists. Only the -to hit debuffs were annoying. This was a non-purpled, pre-incarnate cheap build. I'm sure a better build is well better.

Now I am playing a soft capped Fire/Shield scrapper which is all around better but less optimized for certain foes.

You're missing a key component. S/L defense. Even with softcapped defense the DoT kills me.

Maybe your build isn't as tough as mine then. I have no issues killing Carnies at just about any difficulty I decide to set it at.

I am also softcapped to all 3 positions, so maybe that has something to do with it.

I recently respec'd my Inv/SS to be softcapped to fire/cold. I had no intention on doing so, but lately I've been participating in lots of the fire farms. Also, I've been playing Red Side a lot, and from my experience, pure elemental damage is more prevalent there than blue side.

I just got done with the finishing touches on a mission for my Ice/KM tank. Between burst,fireball and T3reactive, I can successfully manage a 54x8 mission setting with my ambush mission. The mission yields the same as any other mission as since after alot of trial and error I managed to find the right ratio of attacks/defense for the mobs. If your interested look up "Cold Contagious".

54x8 is REALLY IMPRESSIVE.
