Nearing lvl 24 and thinking of respecing
Right now I have stealth and super speed. Is the invisibility worth it? Hasten doesn't seem to matter much for this build, and I'd like a travel power with vertical ability.
Thoughts?

I have stealth and invis on my level 36 MM, and I am quite happy with it. The main reason for it is that I am a completely helpless without my ninjas, and trying to get to mission doors in the forests of Nerva is utterly deadly to me if they could see me.
Hasten and SS are indeed not really handy/needed. I went for TP, just to pick something else for a change. But SuperJump is probably the way to go. That way you will get also CJ and maybe even acrobatics to give you protection against enemies that want to trap you.

Hooray again, I actually have some good advice! And I thought I was the only one with a Bots/Traps MM...
Ok, Bots/Traps. Hasten is not totally useless but it's not really worth getting. And when you get higher up with traps, there are a lot of key power sets you should be running. Leadership, Medicine, and Teleport are all essentials. Assault and Tactics help your bots in their damage potential, Medicine for a real self heal (Triage Beacon is okay but it certainly isn't a real heal) and Aid Self which comes in handy often. And don't get me started on Teleport Foe. That and Traps go together like peanut butter and marshmallows
Anyhow, here's my build. I chose TP as a travel beacuse it's conveinant to get with Teleport Foe and it's pretty fast and also allows for vertical movement. I'll put this without any IO sets

There ya go. This build gives you lots of heals and defense for your bots. Also you can control pretty well with Poison Trap, Caltrops, Web Envelope, Web Grenade and Web Coccoon. Detonator and Trip Mine are great damage dealers and with the +Stealth IO on Teleport (easy to get cheap) you can teleport in, lay a Trip Mine, teleport out and watch the fun. Or you can TP them to the Trip Mine with TP Foe. This build has worked good for me so far and I really like it. Hope this helps you!

That looks like a solid build (working on bots/traps myself). Was wondering though, would Vengeance be worth it to give your bots an uber buff if/when one of your team-mates dies?
EDIT: Also, do multiple FF Generators stack (i.e. multiple /traps MMs)?

Vengeance? Um...to be honest, I never really thought about that. On the rare occasion I team, nobody seems to die. I agree that Vengeance'd bots would be great but I dunno...If you plan on teaming a lot, I spose you could get it
And yeah, FF Generators from multiple traps MMs do stack
