I was looking to respec my farmer and went looking for a new build. I have seen alot of threads out there about /fire and /stone but I like my /fire so I'm not wanting to change it mostly for concept reasons.
I did learn something new about set bonuses I didn't know and that was they stayed with you even if the power was not active. That got me thinking... How close to soft capped defense could I get and still be close to soft capped resistance?
The build below is my attempt to do this and not gimp myself.
Omissions:
1) I didn't take Speed Boost since I primarily farm solo (why do my imps truly need to be SB'd?).
2) I didn't take Cinders since I rarely fire it off anyway... My attack chain is fire cages, flashfire then fireball and hotfeet going the whole time. Wash, rinse and repeat.
3) What looks like a random extra slot added into tough is just a filler till I can get my hands on one of those Glad's 3% defense which will then put me at 37% defense.
Any feedback or advice on what I could do different or even something I didn't think of would be way cool of everyone.
