Because i'm in a good mood after reading the freespec announcement, I decided to complete my build for my lvl50 BS/Regen, NTrailZ, and post it for you all. This toon is currently gimped with a really bad build, almost unplayable, that's why im so happy about the announcement and why i'm posting this here. I need to get this right! So any help/advice is greatly appreciated.

He's mainly intended as a lvl50 PvP toon.

*Edit* Replaced original build with v2, re-ordering Stamina and first travel power.

*Edit* Replaced original build with v3, realised there was little gain from the 3rd damage resistance slot in Resilience. So I moved it to another Recharge in Laser Beam Eyes, so that I can auto it *Edit*

You sure about not getting travel power by L14? It's not like it'd cost you anything, and there's always a chance you want to exemp...

 

Posted

Got plenty of alts for that Max hehe

In my last rebuild/reshuffle before posting I moved superspeed from 14 just to get the slotting right towards the end of the build. Might correct it, don't think it's that important as I mentioned he would probably only ever come out to PvP

 

Posted

If you don't need stamina in Sirens/Warburg are you certain to need it at 47?

 

Posted

Yeah I do need stamina it got bumped to the end in the last rebuild along with travels powers. I need stamina to keep everything but fly on all the time and fight continously. I'm not really interested in Siren's with this Scrapper because he cannot have headsplitter :/ so functionality below Warburg level isn't really much of an issue.

 

Posted

*Edit*

Updated original build with a reworked version for better functionality at lower levels, and with a better planner for easier reading

So apart from power order, anything else to comment on/suggest?

 

Posted

stick a tohitt in buildup, just to be sure

 

Posted

Warburg no Focussed accuracy, one acc in attacks not certain to hit. Swap one recharge with an accuracy. Or wait and see how you do in Recluses Victory before working out the build...

Heck what do I know I don't enjoy PvP much.

 

Posted

Don't get Whirlwind for a PvP Build it doesn't unroot anymore apparently.

World of Jackcraft.

 

Posted

Whirlwind still has it's uses though right? it's not the only reason I put it in the build.

 

Posted

What end drain?

World of Jackcraft.

 

Posted

does it still not show animations? i always thought that was 1 thing that made it hard to fight against as u had no idea what attacks they were using or if they were even attacking u at all, dunno if thats changed now that it roots

 

Posted

Think i read that when you attack with it on it stops then goes through the animation of your attack then wirlwind starts up again. I havnt tried it but i can imagine it being a bit of a pain if it roots you while the wirlwind reactivates after an attack. Wirlwind will still give you good proction against blappers with no accrobatics and it is a great knock back power if you dont have any such powers in your sets.

 

Posted

This build has AS, Disembowl and Headsplitter it isn't really lacking knockback.

World of Jackcraft.

I don't have stamina, never felt i needed it, conserve power is there enogh of the time and those 3 powers i really need elsewhere for my build, even 1 on 1 i don't need it, if i need a breather i spam "touch iof fear" a few times and nothing else till i have a good lenth of blue to go again, the only other alt i will even consider not getting stamina on is my empath defender, everything else i see it as standard.

O.k. just produced a new, what I would call, basic 'cookie cutter' build, designed to be as 'ard as possible

I'm not sure on my power pool choices. I know for what I want I only have 2 Power Pools spare and a choice of 5 powers (i'm keeping fitness and fighting no matter what). So Speed, Teleport, Leaping, Flight and Medicine are all up for grabs, what would you pick for this build and why?



*This posted has been edited a lot because of mistakes and rewrites, sorry. It is now complete though*

 

Posted

Keep Leaping, it's teh rox. You probably don't need Acrobatics though. Out of the others I'd probably consider Hasten.

You're not taking Parry? Why? It makes you 'arder.

 

Posted

Gotta agree with Idris, Acrobatics is a bit pointless as you already have Integration and that provides more than enough status protection.
Hasten probably won't be much use with all those recharge slots you've piled on to your attacks.

Personally I wouldn't bother with the medicine powers what with them being interruptable and the situation you'll be in when you really need them. You'd be better off trying to max your damage output by adding in Assault and possibly Tactics for the added accuracy and (if you intend pvp) for a chance to spot stalkers. Of course that will depend on how much End your current toggles are sapping away.

 

Posted

Yeah you raise a good point Steampunk, after considering last night in bed I realised one reason why I originally had WW, Stalker mitigation. Look's like its back to the drawing board to fit Leadership in, this time I prolly will have to lose fighting

 

Posted

Just like to reiterate again, this is a pure PvP build for an already lvl50

Here's me latest attempt, seems to be the strongest solo PvP build sofar. Think I'll subtitle him 'Stalker Eating Endurance Hog of Impending Knockback Do0o0om' ....catchy :E

Would've liked to go for a SS/TP combo but just couldn't afford the slots, so went with fly to max out on KB with Air Sup and Energy Torrent in there this time aswell.

Am I getting close you reckon? Still miss fighting pool though, really wanted to fit it in build somewhere

I'm choosing weapon mastery instead for my PvP BS/Regen

Web grenades and caltrops to stop the gits from getting away and two distance powers if they get a bit out of reach.

With 2 accs and Tactics I rarely miss, especially with build up

 

Posted

I've got Weapon Mastery atm, tbh I regret dropping Focus Acc everytime I try to play him now. So Body Mastery all the way here with FA + Tactics I should just be able to SS around Stalker and Squishy hunting and rack up kills fairly easily. Also I have 2 ranged powers in that current build, ok not as great range with 1 of them being a cone compared to the shurikens, but they are there and are Energy and half Energy attacks so will be less resisted. Yeah Caltrops are nice, but a couple of Reds + BU + Assualt + Headsplitter + Disembowel, I don't think many squishies will be standing long enough to escape if I suprise them and if they do I can still chase them down with SS + ranged attacks + air sup, to stop them.

I'm selling myself on this build more and more


*Edit* Happy Birthday Jericho, just noticed *Edit*

I would get build up earlier it proves very usefull.Plus a good move which i like alot lol 25 enrages + Headsplitter= Instant Death...for most things and takes a good chunk of a AV too.
