Mmm. Divine Avalanche.
Divine Avalanche is part of an experimental character build I have been testing for the past couple of weeks; the paired defense set being Dark Armor.
This is an attempt to come up with a viable Dark Armor build that solos effectively in the post 30s without stacking armor; given that Dark Armor provides decent Defense bonuses via CoD and CoF, Divine Avalanche combines with it nicely to make a semi-SR scrapper without the SR, but with all of DA's nice extras. (Crowd control, resistances, and a full heal.)
So far, the build has soloed from 1 to 30 in a little over a week, without much trouble, and without using Tough, Weave, or even Dark Embrace. No resistance, just defense--six-slotted Divine Avalanche and six-slotted Cloak of Darkness.
Finding this much more interesting than playing my Kheldian.
Will post a guide to this once the character is tweaked to my satisfaction.
YMWV.
