I'll agree to this. While we're at it, Battle Maiden needs Titan Weapons, Synapse needs to reroll into Electric melee and SR and BAB needs to become Street Justice/Willpower.

Agreed.

Fixed. Taking away Synapse's blasts would be wrong, and NPCs aren't required to have pairings that are valid for PCs.

@Roderick
Synapse can be Electric melee, more appropiated for a speedsters and still have a couple of electric blast, dont forget they always get custom powers.
Valkyrie needs badly to have Staff fighting with her spear.
A new costume would not harm her that much neither. I hate her costume and her beign a giant.

Then give him Lightning Rod too then, NPCs aren't restricted, so.. Charged Bolts and Brawl, Lightning Bolt, Havoc Punch, Static Discharge, Thunder Strike, Voltaic Sentinel, Lightning Rod, Thunderous Blast and his two signature attacks, maybe throw Elude in there with script to only but always use it after Thunderous Blast? Gives a visual clue that he's about to become almost unhittable, so that defense debuffs with hit checks can be thrown on, or people can throw out everything they're got to try and stop him.|

While we're at it, I think Numina should get a recoloured (using a light palette) Dark Control in place of her Mind Control, Dr Aeon should have some Time Manipulation in there, Ghost Widow should gain a version of Dark Control's Haunt which is AoE and spawns 2 Haunts pet enemy, Infernal should have Heat Exhaustion and Melt Armor from Thermal Radiation, and finally the Skulls should have new Necromancy/Dark Control bosses called the Caskets.
I am the Blaster, I have filled the role of Tank, Controller and Defender
Sometimes all at once.
Union EU player! Pip pip, tally ho, top hats and tea etc etc
Dusting off one of my old costume submissions for Valkyrie (which Noble Savage is well acquainted with), here's what happens if you give Valkyrie Staff Fighting. I used the Tech Staff as a stand-in for her signature spear.
And the obligatory contrasts with Battle Maiden ... since Valkyrie herself stands over 7 ft tall at the top of her hair (never mind those wings on her head).
Nowadays I envision Valkyrie as being a Tech Origin Staff/Willpower Scrapper ... and Battle Maiden as a Tech Origin Titan Weapons/Invulnerable Brute ... since both of them are "powered" by nanotechnology (with Battle Maiden's nanites being the origin point for both of their power sets).

It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...
She's had that spear for ages now, its about time she used it instead of pulling a sword out from it.
