I do have a level 30+ Dark/Dark as well as two new ones started I made based on concept, a Traps/DP and a FF/Eng.
Got my FF / elec blast Defender to 33, fast approaching 34, looking forwards to getting volataic sentinel at 35 and thunderous blast at 38! happy days
I'm completely in love with my Empathy/Archery/Power Mastery Defender that I got to lvl 50 during DXP! Love buffing and healing the team while blasting RoA in every mob! With Aim and Power Build Up it does about 550 dmg! I even started combining it with Pyronic Judgement which is just pure sillyness! I see huge numbers raining down on mobs and I'm sure the team doesn't mind a defender with great buffs and also damage!
I even tried soloing with this toon, which actually goes really well! I can solo +0/x8 mobs with ease! RAs are up most of the time with 80% global recharge and perma hasten with T4 Spiritual. Love IT!
I got both Voltaic Sentinal and Thunderous Blast on my forcefield Defender, and I got the final two attack powers on my Empathy / Energy as well.
I love voltaic Sentinel, you can just deploy it in the middle of all the mobs around the tank and then just watch the blasts rain out.
+1!
Defenders are certainly among my favorites now. After a couple years loaded with melee gameplay, I took the turn to Defender and I've now got three 50s (FF, Rad, Cold) and a fourth at 33 (Emp).
Now my Dark/Dark is at level 45 and I plan on moving her to red just long enough to nab Soul Mastery.
Oddly enough the bulk of my high level toons are tanks or scrappers, (My only two 50s are Tanks) and this is my first SUPPORT toon to be in striking distance of 50.
During Double XP, I was able to play and LOVE my new Traps/Dark Blast Offender. Being on teams is a bit rough the first wipe or so when the team asks where the heals were, but once they see the Triage Beacon, they learn to stand still =)
Was also able to level my first */Storm Controller and I fell in love with that set. So much so that I pushed it to 38 by the end for Tornado and Lightning Storm (and cheap 6-piece Kinetic Crash sets in each!).
I have to say... I think I prefer my forcefield / Electric blast.
Reason being, once everybody is bubbled and I got manouvres and the dispersion bubble up. Everybody should be at 40% defence round about, and then, I can cut loose, summon Volt, and then blast away with him!
I guess I'm the only one fronting the Kin love. My Main is a Kin/energy defender with the perfect superhero name: Mightshift. I had a love/hate relationship with her because she was so squishy and I had to cast speed boost on everyone individually. Now with the Incarnate system, at T3, Barrier stacks nicely with Maneuvers, Tough, Weave and Temporary Invulnerability. Add to that Speed Boost's new area effect and I turn superheroes into gods! Myself as well! Now I can do the indoor part of Lambda on my own. Just run into a crowd protecting a target, Fulcrum Shift and put out damage numbers that would make Blasters weep while having a Scrapper's defensive capabilities. As for BAF, I spam my buffs to the point that everyone is doing 300% damage on Siege and Nightstar while Transfusion keeps their regen down. The knockback from Energy Blasts helps a lot during the escape and I find that Siphon Speed's slow effect is very effective on commandos. If I upped my global recharge (which is basically 0) I could probably spam it on every commando that came my way.
