Bots/FF or Demons/Sonic?
Bots/FF will solo most PvE content better. Better defense, more survivability will outshine Demons/Sonic. Bots have -regen while Demons/Sonic has none!

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
Indeed, bots have the upperhand, with FF they hit softcap quite easy, thei have -regen, they have lovely damage and they can heal eachother.
Although sonic might boost resistance of demons to a pretty high level, along with some great -resist, you have nothing to counter the regen of AV and no healing to backup the damage.
I wonder what the numbers are with thermal, but that would be the safer choice for demons, additional heal and -regen debuff (though lesser resist and resist debuff).

Demons/thermal, while having less resistance in the shields, DOES have nice heals in the secondary. Another negative for demons/thermal is there is no sonic dispersion equivalent to protect the mastermind from mezzes. Demons/thermal is meant to be built for speed if only for the heat exhaustion and melt armor.

Well, Thermal is out of the question. I just wouldn't be that good at it compared to other sets.|

I was thinking Sonic would be good because of the -res on top of all the other goodies.
With enough -res you won't need -regen, except for certain big guys.
I don't know, but I'll probably go bots/ff just for simplicity.
I'll save demons for a demons/time MM.

Are you really at the point where you can only roll one more mm? Why not try both?

I made 2, bots/ff and demons/time, but I like to stick with one toon rather than a lot of them.|

I mostly just made the demons/time one to have another option and to test it. I'll either continue having a hard time deciding between the two or just abandon one for the better of the two.

Sorry for yet another post about making a decision, but I don't really have the most slots available nor do I want to buy more. I also am looking for the best "main toon" I can get while also being cool and fun.
Which do you think is a better combination?
Bots/FF or Demons/Sonic?
Which will have an easier time soloing?
Which will have an easier/better time soloing AVs/GMs?
Thanks in advance for help with this decision.
