Hello. I've owned the game for awhile, and I'm just now coming back. I've never gotten a character past 25 in the past, so my understanding of the endgame is rather limited.
I made a Claws/WP scrapper a few weeks ago, and I'm just now 25 on the dot. I have a fair grasp of what IOs are, how they give set bonuses, the idea of a softcap for defenses, and the actual strengths of the /WP secondary.. but I'm still lost.
How do you determine what to slot, and how much? Should my ideal build involve getting to the softcaps on what defenses I can, then going hardcore into regen/HP and accuracy/damage? I've seen some builds on here, and the general idea is in my head, but I'm not exactly sure how to sit down and math it out.
Some things are common sense, and others not so.. well, common. I don't mind people posting builds - encourage it, really - but I'd also like to try and understand how to get there. A lot of guides and such I see are years old, so that really hasn't helped too much.
Any thoughts for a returning player?
