A minor attack, I wouldnt recomend slotting up
01 : Resist Physical Damage damres(01) damres(5) damres(5) damres(13) damres(17) damres(21)
You dont need that many slots in this to hit the cap with SO enhances drop the extra slots
02 : Temp Invulnerability damres(02) damres(3) endred(13) damres(25) damres(34) damres(36)
Same thing as with Resist Physical Damage, to many slots you dont need more than one or 2 slots in this.
04 : Fire Sword dam(04) dam(7) dam(11)
Your Primary Single Target Attack for quite some time, it should get some of the slots from the other things you have down here.
06 : Resist Elements damres(06) damres(7) damres(15) damres(19) damres(23) damres(25)
You can stall on getting this for a while I would recomend taking Taunt here or a Fitness power to speed stamina to level 20
08 : Unyielding damres(08) damres(9) damres(15) damres(21) damres(27) damres(34)
Solid Choice and slotted perfectly.
10 : Combustion dam(10) acc(11) dam(19) dam(27) dam(29)
If you are focusing on aoe damage then slot this more, it takes a while to animate but does decent damage.
12 : Combat Jumping jmp(12)
14 : Super Jump jmp(14)
This looks fine, you might want a end red in super jump but that is it.
16 : Breath of Fire dam(16) dam(17) dam(23) dam(29) dam(43)
Don't know much about this attack but I have heard it is a really small cone, but you should be taking Invincibility at this level, and it should get slotted more.
18 : Swift runspd(18)
20 : Health hel(20) hel(40)
22 : Stamina endrec(22) endrec(40)
Stamina should get 6 slots annd recovery, even with the buff it got skip on slotting up health it is minor
24 : Taunt tntdur(24)
As I mentioned earlier you should get this earlier.
26 : Tough Hide defbuf(26) defbuf(37) defbuf(37) defbuf(39)
Tough Hide is a base def of 7.5 the same as Stealth, you could use the slots better other places.
28 : Resist Energies damres(28) damres(31) damres(31) damres(33) damres(33) damres(34)
Looks good, not sure if you might have wanted it earlier but looks ok.
30 : Fire Sword Circle dam(30) dam(33) dam(36)
Same thing I said on Combustion if you are going for massive aoe damage, and it looks like you are then slot it all the way up with damage, you get your acc from invincible
32 : Invincibility defbuf(32) defbuf(40)
This is a fundimental power of the set and should come at level 16 when it is available.
35 : Incinerate dam(35) dam(36) dam(37) dam(43) dam(46)
38 : Greater Fire Sword dam(38) dam(39) dam(39) dam(42) dam(46)
41 : Ring of Fire immdur(41) immdur(42) dam(42) dam(43) dam(46)
Those look ok but I would recomend taking the hold insted of the immobilize and not slotting it for damage only hald and mabye an acc.
44 : Unstoppable damres(44) damres(45) damres(45) damres(45) damres(48) damres(48)
This is Overkill, unstoppable isnt very good now and far exceeds the damage with only one or 2 enhancements if you really want the power keep in mind it now has a 13 minute recharge time and a 3 minute duration so recharge would be a focus.
47 : Fireblast dam(47) dam(48) dam(50)
49 : Fireball dam(49) dam(50) dam(50)
Decide if you are aoe or single target and stick to the theme, slotting up the power in that catagory.

Having typed all that in, I have never played a Inv/Fire tank only read more than a few guides to building tanks and I would recomend checking out the Forums in the tanker section there is a list of guides that can help out.

I want to come back into the game and I can't because everytime I run CoHUpdater, it comes up with an error with kernel32.dll. Been checking and this is supposedly caused by virus' or spyware on your system.
I've finally gotten the Spyware off my system and pretty sure I've cleaned it of virus' too. Still it won't work. Uninstalled, reinstalled. Won't work. Downloaded a new kernel32.dll file. Won't work.
I've about given up hope.

I think I got most of the powers right, but may have placed enhancements wrong. Some critique-age would be nice.
Second: That isn't capping your resists, or anything near it. If that's what you intended, more power to you. If not... Like it or not, you need to have another toggle to reach it. Whether it be Tough, or TI. The former is less END intensive, the latter has more resists. For that matter, note that a resist enhancement slot in TI, or even Tough, is much, much more efficient than one in RPD. There's quite a few possible combinations to reach the cap, and for these I'd rather point you to the Scrapper forums.
Second and a half: That covers smashing and lethal resists, but there's still energy and elements to take care of... A LOT of enemies use a two-part attack with some energy or element added onto their smashing/lethal. Free up some slots from other powers to max out Energy and Elements instead.
Third: On attacks. You want more slots in Flashing Steel earlier. It's a damned nice attack, especially handy for multiples. Mine was fully slotted at 10, and it was well worth it. On your other attacks, the Def debuffs pretty much aren't worth it... No matter what the number on the debuff is, even enhanced, it won't be as good as an extra accuracy. Not to mention the buff from Invinc, like I was saying in-game, which will even let you replace accuracy with end reducers. Attacks are what costs the most END, not toggles.
Fourth: Invincibility slots. Opinions are kinda split on this, but here's mine: It's not worth slotting. Def buffs on it are neglectible -- it takes about 5-6 Defense SOs to reach the bonus you get from having one enemy on you. (I think that was for Tankers, might be different for Scrappers, but still close.) If you must put defense buff slots somewhere, I'd say finish up Tough Hide, at least it works on ranged enemies, and whether your toggles are on or not.
Of course, this was all written from the point of view of a solo scrapper, which needs to be able to take some damage. Since you're duoing with a Tanker, your mileage may vary. Asha'man fucked around with this message on 05-31-2005 at 05:30 PM.

Ctrl-Alt-Del said this about your mom:
Also, you are going to want to add more slots to build up, or not take it at all. As it only lasts for 10 seconds, and with one recharge, still has about a 3 minute recharge. 6 slotting build up then you can remove all but one acc enhancements in your attacks.
Eh.
With Hasten, and one SO, I get it every 45 seconds. Maybe the scrapper Build Up is different from the Blaster one?

I found and ran Panda Virus Scanner instead. Found some stuff that I'm now (not really now as I'm at work

Used avast Virus Cleaner and it worked after that.
I've already filled up all my slots on Guardian. I might have to delete some...
If so, expect to see the Mystic Kitsune (Illusion/Storm Controller)and Salamandra (Fire/Stone Tanker) once again!
