So i want to make a katana scrapper but i do not know which secondary to choose at all. Personally i got a lvl 50 MA/Regen so i don't really want to do Regen again also I'm working on DM/SR brute so SR is out too. SO out of the rest of the secondary what would be the best and why?

Kat/WP is a pretty basic powerhouse build. Katana/* provides a good bit of +def to shore up the already impressive survivability of */WP, plus the lack of click powers in */WP makes it so that you pretty much never have to cause redraw.

Other than that, you've got */Fire (decent synergy when using DA a lot but suffers from substantial redraw, Consume is awesome to have around), */DA (similar to */fire but less damage and a bit less redraw, end issues are gonna bite though), and */Invuln (decent survivability but lacks self support synergy because */Invuln already says "lol s/l and melee"). Kat/WP is probably going to be your best choice for a decent bit of time.

Listen to umbral.

WP works great with kat because it doesn't cause redraw which can be a pain with kat, and kat helps wp with DA in softcapping melee/lethal while wp can softcap everything else with good IO slotting. Use the fighting pool to help with that softcapping, and with tough you'll have pretty good lethal resists as well. WP's quick recovery makes leveling up a lot easier, and easier to grab powers early on when other builds are trying to fit in swift/hurdle, health and stamina, and WP offers up a tier 9 that doesn't have a doom crash. Fully io'd up, regen takes care of most of your healing needs, so no need to click heals and waste time redrawing the katana.

Don't get me wrong, katana will work with any secondary, it just fits best with WP, imo.
