Tastic

In Shriek's hero planner it looks like u get a massive end boost from attacking, this is what Im interested in not end drain as an offensive power. Unenhanced I really dont notice anything, but wanted to know if enhancing would help. Im already not going to slot damage because I need to either slot end reducers or as in question. I dont have the benifit of power sink ect.

Im lv 26 and next power I take *will not* be flurry but Id like to hear opinions based on experience on which DA power to take. So far Ive not really used any distinctive DA powers except dark regen. I was thinking of taking boxing and tough (instead of taunt and a DA power).

I can taunt and herd a group quite well but I wouldnt mind a bit of extra damage mitigation.

Im thinking cloak of fear would be a good damage mitigator. Cloak of darkness sounds nice but perception and invisibility is more useful for PvP, whereas I chose a PvE primary this time.

Im also a bit concerned with the end costs cause I still havent tried acrobatics which Ill definately get pre lv30.

TYVM,

i suspected sj was best for my toon,
do u think 3xacc/3xrecharge red's would be ok if my stam is slotted ?

so i looks like no SO's for me then, do u think i should save my respec till L8r then or do it now ?

I have been playing with 3 rch 3 end redux, and my primary is electric. Usually with about 5 mobs u will hit 2 or 3 and 2 will be 80% full health from zero and 3 is 100% from zero health. If ur fighting a nasty mob then u would be using buildup and your attack chain, then u would use DR while in build up.

The only time I have problems is against CoT where its handy to take yellows.

Might be an idea to slot build-up for ToHit bonus since its critical to your healing.

Its a great heal for an AoE primary, I always pull to a corner where the mob will bottleneck.

Notice I didnt mention any names in my original post, this is not meant to be flame bait.

Had an interesting conversation with a brute in game. Went something like this:

"OMG I just got it handed to me"

I say
"thats because u dont have your temp inv toggle which is what makes /inv have high smashing res and is essential"

"In the end game its not needed"

I say
"its still needed in the end game but you will find varied damge types which are not smashing more commonly"

"its personal opinion"

I say
"its in hero planner if u take a look or just ask on the forums"

"I can make my own mind up"

I say
"yes but you'd be wrong"

"Im crazy"

I say
"Its a computer game and computers are based on mathematics and in maths its either correct or incorrect"

Blah blah

I say
"/ignore irritating person"
