How to swat RoBFs, advice please. (in General)

So, I have issues with RoBF teams (at the risk of tipping my hand!)

The basic problem is that my MH just doesn't make sufficient contact to do battle with and evasioned RoBF minion.

MH stats x6000 +110 (please don't laugh)

So, the way I see it I can help myself by:
a) Adding pth to the MH
b) Training dex big time (try for maxing dex based hits)
c) Training a chunk of EC (to help max dex advantage)

Now I really don't have the cash for a) to work, at least I don't think I do.

Will b) or c) (or both) eventually enable me to start landing blows consistently?

Is there another option I have yet to consider which would solve this dilemma?

Thank you o wise and generous strat gurus.

I'd swap your solitude for a ToA, retrain your DM which would then affect your AMF into either GA or more EC: GA if you don't fight alot of DM teams, EC if you do.

One a side note, you might want to consider having your minion that does AMF, not dilute his XP but just do AMF.

Lol. I've some pretty big weapons and my major opponents are mostly RBF teams. I do better with a Shield Of Capacity against them, but it's still not great...

So that's why I lol, because apart from AC or doing bigger damage and lasting longer to out damage them, there's not much else...

not looking for a complete rebuild here....

You could also go with D moving one of your two rear most minions up to the second spot and giving him a good amount of wall equipment to seriously slow down the RoBF.

Buy my wall set. ;)

I'm not looking to last longer, rather I would like to improve upon this pitiful performance:
melee 8 / 43 / 372,173

8 for 43.... gotta figure if I can get that up to about 20 then I'm getting 3mil more damage (and 600k more hp via the leech).

Against that particular opponent if he is using EC to completely drain your dex then yes training it would give you more hits against him. Unless of course you have enough EC to completely drain his dex too.

Add more AC (up to 300+), and/or make a PL/TSA minion. Those are common foils for the RoBF.

Kill the RoBF in ranged. Its damage is rather pitiful compared to the other tattoo's
