Right so near as I can tell it is impossible to softcap Energy Blast/Thermal to Ranged/Melee/AOE


I gave it my best shot and only got to 33%ish.

I do have a reason for wanting to softcap this character, but it is all wrapped up in her backstory So skip this if you don't care about that kind of thing.



Quote:
Rivona is a Vanguard experiment gone wrong. She was seriously injured in the Rikti war and had to have an extreme amount of cybernetic replacement of both limbs and internal organs. She after recovering felt that the Rikti has stolen her life and wanted revenge! So she joined the vanguard as a test pilot. Her large amount of cybernetics allowed her to easily interface with advanced armor systems. She was eventually assigned to testing a new kind of battle armor. Said Battle Armor was made from the finest Enchanted Impervium the Vanguard could make and it had Rikti technology that allowed the user to mentally control many functions of the armor. It also had a stable wormhole into the heart of a star. Plasma was drawn through this wormhole and used for flight and attacks. Thermal radiation was also siphoned off the star and used for healing and shielding. Unfortunately the Rikti tech wasn't fully understood and when Rivona activated it the device connected her mind to the Rikti hive mind. This fried her brain. She was comatose for weeks and for some reason the Vanguard researchers could not remove the armor. Not knowing what was happening Rivona had locked it down in the brief moments before the hive mind overwhelmed her mind. Then Rivona woke up. Screaming and raving the researchers tried to get through to her, to get her to unlock the armor but she was beyond madness.
TL/DR Version is that Shes an invincible cyborg with the power of a fracking star behind her. She is also completely mad; god like power limited by her instability and inability to apply it correctly. Now If I reroll her I'll drop the radiation thing and say that she's folding space-time with the wormhole.
Suffice to say I would be very impressed if you managed to softcap EB/TR to all positions. It would save me from having to reroll this character as a EB/Time


Due to her backstory I am allowing myself to reroll this character as a Eb/Time unless someone can make EB/TR do what I want it to do. So here is what is most likely the worst /Time build ever because I haven't played the set yet. So I'm looking for any advice on /time and how it plays at higher levels. Or if anyone has a EB/Time build I would love to look at it, softcaped or not.
