Oops, forgot to say why I posted:
I wanted some inputs/suggestions. This is largely guesswork. The main reason I am posting this is that the majority of the WS builds that I could find were purpled out and that is far above my price range.
Black Dwarf Mire's recharge and Duration was dropped to somewhere around 10ish seconds. Because of this, BDM isn't going to be as good for buffing Nova damage, but would still help out with human powers like quasar.
Other than that, I'm really no help.
I had noticed that, usually I had about enough time to fire off 2-3 attacks before dropping back, probably not efficient, but still I like to. Dwarf just seems slow, which is part of why I stacked on so much recharge.
Those 3 LotGs you have will cost you a very pretty penny, so I think the 300mil budget will have to be thrown.
Paragon Studios, thanks for all you've done. You've made this a great game, and a great community. I see this as six years well-spent. NCSoft, I'm seriously disappointed in you. This is not how you get or keep customers.
I acknowledged the cost of the LoTG's are the end of my comments, my aim was to be able to put the rest of the build together for the initial budget, then work towards the them 1 at a time.
Sorry, I'm prettty sure I had just woken up when I posted that.
Other than that, Positron's Blast might cost you a bit, but not too much, the Obliteration Set is likely to be quite costly, and so is the Regenerative Tissue - +Regen. That should all fit within the 300mil budget.

Offset the cost with merits... Remember merits can be very friendly. Also can turn those merits into some quick cash
I've been playing this game for about a month now, having quit about two years ago when character creation and such seemed much easier. Anyways, I don't have a lot of inf to spend, about 300mil inf on hand, so I tried to put together a cheap somewhat modular(the ability to purchase parts at a time without gimping) WS build. The company line that gets thrown about is to build like you like to play, so I have a few focuses here besides cheapness:
I like to use dwarf mire and sunless mire to boost up nova damage. I "tank" sometimes in Dwarf if the team requires it. I like a double mired quasar. I want eclipse up as much of the time as possible so I am not afraid to shift out of dwarf. I like blowing up corpses as often as possible. I like a team of fluffies who have my back. Most of that is pretty obvious, towards the end I picked up health/stam just because I had accomplished all of my goals. Other than that I picked up utility skills. The human skills/toggles I took were just because I had to. I want Stygian Circle to be up whenever I need it. I don't really attack in human except for the above exceptions. I guess recharge speed is a pretty big thing, with those LotG recharges making up a lot of the cost, I'll buy them piecemeal.
Anyways, here it is:
