first guide i wrote.

How is that a guide? Its just a posted build. No advice on why to took what you took. Same for slotting. Need s a lot more work.

copy and paste the code into mids hero builder, the lastest v. 1.4 .the attacks are maxed out for the most amount of dmg, acc, end redux, and rechrge. its called frakenslotting your powers to get the most out of your powers instead of being concerned with set bonus's. DM/SR is a very tight build. without the end redux for DM, i would have had to gotten stamina, taking hurdle/swift, and health (not as useful since for SR, the point is you are not gonna be hit as often). so basically i would have to take out 3 of my powers just to get stamina. without the recharge, there would be no way to build a buzzsaw attack (fast hitting attacks w/no downtime). whats not to understand?

Still, it's a posted build, far, far from a guide. Have you ever read one? They explain power and give advice and stuff. You could as well post your build in the scrapper forums.

Is anyone working on a Broadsword/Fire guide, by chance? I'd like to see what you all have to say about it.


Too many alts to list.

I'd love to see someone make a katana/willpower guide. People keep mentioning it but I've yet to see any guides/good builds for it.


 

Posted

I'd be interested to see more WP guides in general. MA/WP would be especially useful.

Seconded.

I made a fire/wp guide. It's here.

Still a bit of a rough draft. Any input would be appreciated.

Any Dual Blade/Regen guides out there?


 

Posted

Does anyone know of a good fire/regen guide?


 

Posted

Working on one. Let me know if you have some specific questions.

That's a build...not a guide. A guide provides more information, such a strategies, what the powers do, when to use certain powers, why you picked the slotting, why you picked certain powers over others, etc.

A build just shows power and enhancement choices. It does look like a decent build, so if you put some work into it, you can probably get a guide out of it.

/WP is boring. It hardly needs a guide.

Take everything, slot RttC and Fast Healing (and even Health, if you want) to the gills. With Stamina and QR, you can run all your toggles 24/7. The end.

Hello.. I am new to the game and looking for a guide to claws/regen, including slotting and all those confusing power selections you get later. I am just trying to figure it all out. I heard this is a great starting combo and forgiving.

Thanks for the help.

My Issue 12 Guide for Broadsword/Willpower Scrappers is now up in the Player Guides section.

BS/WP: The Arm Strong Approach

Thanks to Desmodos and Werner for assisting with the proofing and suggestions for the guide.


 

Posted

So has anyone done a Martial Arts / Willpower guide? Or doesn't anyone think this is a good combo?

Certainly not, the set works well together, incredibly well if you are looking for a thematically natural origin character.

There is very little set synergy, however. The MA powers don't take advantage of WP, and vice versa. The only, and I stress that this is MINOR, point of concern between the two sets is that your big survival power in WP (Rise to the Challenge) depends on keeping foes in melee range, and one of your MA attacks (Crane Kick) will knock an enemy out of its range. But as I will stress again, this is a minor concern.

So basically, you can read one or two guides about MA, and one or two guides about WP, and you are set.


Global: @Pack Huntress (I'll get around to changing that to @Sintropy someday)

Yes, I finally got around to setting up a Sig. So, with any luck, it should only be another 3-5 months after the next Blue Moon before I set up an avatar, too
