Though IOd, shield charge/ lightning rod would provide good knockdown, and most things should be deatd fast. I think it may be workable without tough/weave. But certainly not to my standards of safety for farming, but inspirations should drop often so perhaps. I'm also not taking into considering, with the changes of issue 16, that half the enemies will be minnions now, not full LT's. So that means less damage coming in. And you have OWTS if things go awry.

Kudos that i think it may be workable. I still like having the regen going from 1 tic every 4 seconds, to a tic every 3.5 seconds with the introduction of IO'ing out physical perfection. Much better on endurance too with it of course.

Plus with energy torrent its a good knockdown ability to start the mob with as you get close, then follow with SC/LR and your other aoes.

Oh i'm so excited for issue 16 lol. Whichever AT i decide on for the shield/elec. I still want an invuln/elec as well, so perhaps, as that would be better as a tanker, perhaps i may just go the scrapper route. It would also justify having a 2nd shield toon on the same server, as i already have a shield/ice on the server i wanted to put this on.

Thanks for uh... i guess making me verbalize these thoughts in my head lol.

I'll be making it on Freedom, if you play there i say we duo and tear stuff up!!!

Ew, only problem is i somehow need to find 4 more slots bleh. Or at least two in the build to fully slot physical perfection and energy torrent.

Also i could ditch manuevers for hasten, would have to put off phalanx fighting till 49 though. But would help with farming. The only solution i can see is ditching jacob's ladder for the slots. But i so love that power i couldnt imagine skipping it XD. But farm builds and all some sacrifices must be made? Then i can pick up jacobs ladder on my tank then possibly and have that be one thing special about it that i like. Bah hate decisions. We need like, level 50 only accolades that grant extra slots lol.

You are all forgetting one key element. You can set the map on your own for 8 teamamtes, and still choose to not have bosses when soloing. Even if your farming other people you simply invite them once you've spawned the map.

This is the build i would suggest for issue 16. I actually made this, for my invuln/elec tank but since mid's didnt update for elec melee yet i used dark melee in its place. It can be synonomously used for fire melee, just swap around some powers per level. Also where laser beam eyes is, is a power called physical perfection, 20% regen, 12.5% recovery. You'll be doing well before then, but when you reach that you end problems will be nigh.

Unstoppable is still a really good power for AV fights, most of which usually don't last longer than its duration, and also of which you should be having help from your team to keep you alive as you keep attention of the AV through invincibility/gauntlet. I've never found the need for the current version of taunt on my inv/fire. Invincibility is a very strong taunt, and you have attacks galore to work off of gauntlet.

That it is, that it is

And yeah, the main part of rad having "better" aoe is that its third aoe is a faster recharging click, and not a slow recharging pseudo pet that scatters.

Usage wise, not counting whether its pbaoe, melee whatever. Irradiate is actually closer to what fireball does, and neutron bomb is really the extra aoe in the set in comparison.

And again as mentioned, superspeed + stealth IO will be your full invis quite easily. The recovery bonuses you are trying to get with grant invis, trust me you won't be needing. Additionally you're a blaster who, even if getting grant invis for things like tfs, should certainly not be bothering with slotting it for defense. The entire concealment pool should be discarded on a blaster nowadays IMO.

Likewise with the slotting on electric fence. No need to waste the slot on it for the 2% recovery bonus. The build i layed out alone even without power sink should be near limitless endurance use. Add on power sink for, pretty much any time you'll ever really need, and endurance will be the last thing on your mind with this character i guarantee it.

As it is more of a ranged based set up, you'll probaly find you might never use it, outside of right after nuking and popping a blue to get back into the fight right away.

If you don't feel like the medicine pool, its still viable to skip it for sure. I would personally place, well if your dead set on having fly, instead of going the hasten/ss/hover route, superspeed at 28, and then lightning clap at 30. It can have its use, and is a cheap place with 5 slots for stupefy to gain 1.88% max hp and 6.25% global recharge, in addition to its use.

As to the suggestion of adding the hold proc in your archery blast powers, that has some use with archery, but with energy blast, who already gets shocking bolt + shocking grasp to hold on bosses, and the main part of the energy blasts main mitigation of knocking the enemy you're fighting down/back, its much less use on an energy blaster.

I would definitely keep the 6th slot of recharge on static discharge as well. Especially on teams, youll want your only non-knockback aoe power up as often as possible.

Nowadays i really perosnally wouldn't bother with trying to go for phase shift. Especially with /elec, while more unconventional, if your really scared lightning clap can actually be used well, and the knockbacks from your other powers should be fairly safe, and soloing the kbs plus the st holds in the later game should be more than efficient.

Also, you have hasten, hover, and fly. If you move it to hasten, ss, and hover (hover is fine for combat and to get up over obstacles when super speeding, i use this setup with various toons. Then, the stealth IO + superspeed will give you full invisibility anyways. The stealth IOs are steadily becoming cheaper last i checked as well.

You'll definitely be wanting havoc punch, and shocking grasp, and i've gotten good use out of thunder strike as well, but considering hover as your combat mobility the way i'd suggest using it isn't possible.

To be perfectly honest, with IOs you may be able to do without power sink even, energy blast is fairly rounded out for activation/damage per endurance. Though still work getting just for whatever and before you get enough end reduction slotted, good for bonuses as well, i'd 4 slot efficacy adaptor in it, you won't be needing more than that tbh anywho, and its gets you the max hp, recovery and regen bonuses.

Much later, surge of power will act just fine as your "phase shift" ability as situations should be rare you truly need it. I generally keep a couple purples on hand which alternatively do the same while letting you keep fighting.

Here is my suggestion for powers/slotting on an energy/elec/elec:

And alternatively with your hasten/ss/hover provisions, and what seems like you'd prefer the snipe, which i rarely find uses for, but if you insist can go right in place of thunder strike which your hovering combat won't use as well. Also, not usually a fan of it, but judging by your playstyle from what i'm seeing here, you don't seem to want to melee at all, and youll have an attack chain without, though less damaging certainly viable. Leaving a good place actually for you to pick up aid self, which'll help not need phase shift as well.

Personally i would go for the spines/fire. The heal in fire makes so much more of a difference than the current state of energize, for pretty much the same resistance values, it just recharges too slowly and the regen buff does not last long enough as of current unless they changed/fixed it on test to last 60s and not just 30.

I dont like the god modes for farming, however ROTP is a great tool for farming, should you happen to bite it, you can get right back in the fight and not waste any time.

As to endurance management, If built right consume is enough to take care of your end issues, you should barely need it to begin with so when you do get low, its right there for you and does its job. Fire armor also puts out more damage if you pick up fiery embrace as well, something elec does not offer. I had a friend ask me for advice prior to this so i'll show the build i suggested for him.

with the new addition of physical perfection i would suggest moving focused accuracy at 41, and then getting physical perfection at 44 and putting those 2 slots as level 50 end mod enhancments.

Energy torrent is also really good here, becasue its more damage and the knockdown helps for mitigation as well. Your aoe attack chain will be build up > Throw spines > energy torrent > spine burst > throw spines. Using throw spines twice, ET, and SB all while build up is going on is crazy damage, and very effective.

When hasten is up with the full build, you should actualy be able to use this chain:

Build up > Energy torrent > Throw Spines > Spine Burst > Throw Spines > Energy Torrent

So you get an extra ET in there for even more damage. Obviously cj + hurdle is a must for this, as nothing else will get you in and out of melee fast enough for this attack chain.

To the OP, you only have 13.1% smashing/lethal defense, not capped. And your smash/lethal resistance is only capped when SoW is active, so i wouldnt consider that to factor in to using less smash/lethal defense/resistance bonuses.

Here is how i planned mine out, i know its willpower/mace, but axe is the same thing as mace really.

I would keep stamina 4 slotted, 4 efficicy adapters do wonders for it while capping your end mod in it.

As to the build, what is it you're looking for? Invuln is pretty sturdy on its own especially on a tank. Are you trying to be able to take on AVs by yourself? In most situations without tough/weave invuln does a decent job on its own, and any little help from you teammates usually lets you take on very difficult situations. Add to that fire melee is a very good damaging set. I personally think you miss out on a lot by skipping fire sword/breath of fire.

Perhaps call me crazy, i love both of those attacks, and appreciate how invuln does with modest regen bonuses.

I can post my build if you like, but it would help to know what exactly it is you are aiming for. I also think with invincibility, and the aoes from fire melee that you can personally do without taunt.

The best way to get max regen out of both health, and physical perfection is as follows

Health: Numina regen/recov, numina heal, numina heal/end
Common: Heal IO
Regen Tissue +regeneration

Physical Perfection: Numina: Heal, Heal/end
Efficacy Adaptor: End mod, End Mod/Rech, End mod/acc/rech, End mod/Acc

Thus granting 78% regen from health, plus 45% from uniques, plus 34% from bonuses, and roughly 32% from slotting physical perfection.

Totalling 189% regeneration. (values with level 35s, would be closer to 193% regen if using 50s)

If you look at my guide below, take out the 78% from actually slotting health, and thats 111% bonus regen, just 9% short from granting 1 tic every 4 seconds.

Now if its like Sarrate says with the enhancing values boosting numina/regen tissue uniques, youll be past that, yay.

However, i have not noticed this, and outside of putting in the numina, then putting in/taking out heal IOs in health to see if the value changes, have not noticed any higher value out of numina/regen tissue unqiues. I suspect more that people are zoning and forgetting that the buff stacks for 2 minutes when testing their regen, but again havent tested it specifically. In any case if it is, it is a bug, and i'm sure the devs will eventually get around to fixing it. So i wouldn't plan around this being the case forever.
