A Positron Build

This is my attempt at making a radioactive blaster. Positron is a member of the Freedom Phalanx from the City of Heroes MMO. I'm still working on a name and a costume.

    Uh, okay. What powerset(s) in CO were you thinking of using for it? PA? Fire? Infenral SN?

    If i were to do another PA, i would have to go with more of a warmachine build. I've done fire to death now. Infernal is green, and could be mistaken for radiation. I don't know if this helps any.

    Keep in mind that if you're currently subbed (or have lifetime sub) you can recolor powers, which could be handy here.

    Regardless, I guess I'll pick a beam-based PA build for you, as I assume your other PA build(s) were using missiles:

    Did you mean to include a link in your original post? There's not a lot of ranged particle damage other than power armor and gadgeteering. The most radioactive death ray type look outside of those is probably (oddly) sorcery.

    Not much to go on there, but I guess you can just make it a normal Infernal SN build in its attacks (assuming you're okay with that):

    Positron would definitely be a defile spammer.
