My Elec tanker has 32.5% to positionals, and he didn't have to sacrifice anything major, as Hasten is almost perma and it came relatively cheap.
Here's his current build:

As for 45% to all positionals, it would be very difficult to obtain and many sacrifices would likely be needed.

see my post "need comment on ElA/SS" it got plenty of builds with various price.
the last ones got 45% to S/L/E/N, it's not positional, but it'll softap most attack of the game.
English isn't my birth language, so don't blame me if I do some mistakes. thank you !
I saw yours, slaad. That's what got me wondering if significant positional defenses were possible.
Thanks Auroxis; I'm glad to know it's possible, especially 32.5% without sacrifices. I'll look at your build when I have access to Mids again.

I dare say it would be hard and come at great cost to other attributes of your toon. I havnt tried, mainly becuase I wouldnt dare try. Most position buffs need to be 6 slotted and due to the tight slotting required to softcap typed I would say its a costly experience.
I dont really know what to say

OK, I'm not really very good at this sort of thing, but I spent some time reverse engineering Auroxis' build and re-created it as best I could with /SS instead of /Fire. Anyway, recharge is just a tiny bit less than Auroxis' build, and at least one power is slotted kind of funny, but with other bonuses it seems like it will work out.
Importantly, I reached 32.5% defense to all positions without any glaring sacrifices. If I use the Spiritual Core Tier-4 Alpha slot, Hasten is just shy of permanent (about 5-7 seconds downtime), otherwise it's down for 25 seconds (according to Mid's--I think it'll end up being more like 30-35 seconds). Does the Alpha slot affect other incarnate powers? Specifically, I'm referring to the Destiny buff's recharge, but also the Judgement power.
The only "sacrifice" I noticed was I ended up without a proper travel power, but I figure running at ~70MPH with Sprint, Swift, Lightning Reflexes, and Ninja Run is sufficient. The run speed cap is only 90-something MPH, right? Also, the last two powers are just there because I ran out of slots. The choice was between Tactics/Vengeance with another LotG recharge or a proper travel power (I'd have taken Super Jump) and some throw-away power (I was thinking Power Surge just for the look of it). Obviously, I went with the powers with some actual use to me over the ones that would just be "nice."
Anyway, how does this look to you Mids pros?

You get a travel power, solid draining capabilities, another AoE attack, Power Surge, more recharge debuff resistance, and finally a neat attack chain in Jab-Haymaker-Mu Lightning-KOB-Haymaker-Mu Lightning. The only thing I see missing is the FF +rech proc, but it's not that important if you have spiritual.
As for Destiny, it is not affected by the recharge portion of Spiritual, but it is affected by the Heal which gives you a very significant increase to HP/Sec should you choose Rebirth Radial.

Do tankers not slot their taunt aura for taunt anymore?
Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.

Might be a different story if we could slot Taunt sets in it, but we can't so most people don't bother.

That's amazing. I was really hoping to get Ball Lightning in there, but I just couldn't find the slots for it. I like how you manage to hit 32.5% exactly on each position, that's a real nice touch. Much better than the build I put together.|

I looked at some numbers with a FF +Rech proc, and it didn't make a significant improvement, which surprised me. The best gain I noticed was almost 5 seconds, most were only a second or two. I guess there's enough recharge built into the build via slotting and bonuses that an almost-constant +100% boost wasn't a huge addition.
I think that's about as solid as it gets. Thank you!

Hi folks, just a quick question: Is it possible to reach the soft-cap for all three positions via IOs on Electric Armor? My guess is no, but I don't have Mid's available currently. Failing that, how about reaching 32.5%?
If it matters, the secondary in question is Super Strength.
Thanks in advance.
