  1. Hello!

    I made a dark/shield scrapper and did just hit 50. I want a nice build for it but didnt know where to start, so did ninja Elektros build.

    To not make myself to poor i did remove the purple set and the HO;s. I also removed a slot from active defenses to get 6 slot in siphon life.

    Any thoughts on Elektros build and my slighlty different version?

    Defiant Events.

    Wont the GMs help to get the channel back? Really strange if they dont, im also suprised that Kendai havent been banned from the game yet.
  3. So, why did you hijack the channel? and how do you justify that you beeing the "admin" of it?
  4. Hello!

    I rolled a elec/invu scrapper some days ago. I took elec for some nice AoE and invul as a tool to get caped s/l def and res.

    When i looked at this board for some nice build i didnt find any, i did just find alot of elec/shield builds. That made me think, was invu a bad choice compared to shields?

    DM/invu seemed pretty popular thou, has dm better synergy with invu or?

    I will use my toon to farm, run TFs and solo storyarcs.

About the AoE situation, I think it's excellent! True, Fire will have more AoE, but less safety, due to less control.

    Oh, and about your playing ground. I'm playing in Union, another European server. Have a nice time in Defiant It's a friendly place
    Im going ice / mental then. Is there any nice up to date build on the forum so i know what powers to buy? and is there any special origin i should take for blaster ice/mental?

    To bad you aint on Defiant, Danish people are always great. Best country in the world.

    When you play Solo, there is generally little need for alot of AoE. It's on teams that you want to have lots of AoE, and that is where stuff like Fire/Mental is godlike.
    "not nearly as safe" sounds a little bit to unsafe for me. I guess it will not be faster if im dead all the time.

    So whats best as second skill, ice or mental? with mental i get a nice heal and with ice i get some extra crowd control?

You'll hear the phrase "glass cannon" used to describe Blasters, since it's fairly accurate: you can do a lot of damage, but you are somewhat fragile.

    If you want to make trains of monsters, you'll need something with dedicated defenses, like a Scrapper or a Warshade--or a Brute if you give Villains a go. The problem with Scrappers and Brutes is that they're not very nukeworthy, and the best damage you're likely to get is from ranged AoE attacks in epic powersets (levels 40-50) or auxiliary damage from the defensive set.

    Warshades, on the other hand, can fairly easily round up huge groups of enemies, buff their own damage to high heaven and explode in a massive detonation laying waste to everything around them. In the world of farming large groups of enemies, Warshades are ranked way up there with the Super Strength/Shield Defense Brute and the Fire Control/Kinetics Controller.
    Ok, then i just forget about my massacre fantasies. Smaller groups will do.

    I got four builds that i want to play to choose from now.

    Ice / Mental manipulation
    Fire Mental manipulation
    Ice / Ice
    Fire / Ice

    Is fire / mental manipulation faster at solo leveling then ice / mental?

The main drawback is that Ice/Ice is one of the lowest damage Blasters, especially against larger spawns (like those you get while teaming). It does have some AoE capability, but it's slow since you are relying on Ice Patch and Shiver to keep things in an Ice Storm for several seconds instead of just blowing them up with a Fire Breath + Fireball combination.

    Ice/Mental is still pretty safe and /Mental gives you additional area effect damage, which Ice lacks. It will be a better choice for teaming and is still one of the safest solo options, just not quite as safe as Ice/Ice. Both solo very well provided you aren't fighting large groups (once you get good enough to fight tougher enemies, go after small groups of higher level foes instead of larger groups your level).

    Either one is a good choice... I'd go with Ice/Mental if you plan to mostly team and Ice/Ice if you plan to solo a lot.
    I really dont like the sound of not beeing able to do good AoE. I wish to make trains of monsters and then jump around and nuke them. Maybe im better of with Fire / Mental or fire / Ice?
  9. Hello

    Im new to this game and going to do my first real toon. I prefer to play a DD so i guess im going to make a blaster, but i have no idea what skill sets to choose. I looked some at the forum and Ice blast / Mental manipulation and Ice blast / Ice manipulation seems like nice choices.

    I wish to to do both grouping and some solo. I also wish to be able to out level the beginning zones fast, cause it seems like im the only player there.

    Going to play att the Defiant server btw.

    Really thankfull for answers.
