Anyone remember when Archery and Sonic (primary) was introduced into the game, so we can put the issue in brackets next to the newer powersets which didn't come with issue 1?  [[User:Sera404|Sera404]] 00:49, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Blanker?

I don't know if anyone has tried this, but I'm wondering if anybody has managed to make a workable Blanker (Baster as Tank) build? --Malonkey1 17:20, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

I remember someone complaining about the Blessing of the Zephyr change, saying it was making his "blaster tank" unbearable. He didn't get a lot of sympathy.
You'd be better off using a Scrapper. Although the Damage Scale for Scrapper ranged damage is less than Blaster, their ranged attacks actually use their melee scale--which matches the Blaster ranged scale. This puts Scrapper pretty squarely at the top of the damage heap in terms of raw strength. Tank with that and you get the proverbial tank-mage. --GuyPerfect 17:47, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
