Hellowie!

After making a Trick Arrow - Psychic Blast Defender (on MaX's reccomendations) I still pined for Stormie goodness. So I am going to make a Storm Summoning - Archery Defender.

I downloaded a Hero Planner, but find it really confusing to use. I feel quite stupid really . Could someone give a decent build for a Storm - Archery Defender please? It would really help me out.

Thankyou!

The Rot Hood.

Hellowie!

I seem to have gone past the Edit date. I should have also added that I am a strictly PvE player.

Thanks.

Looking good o the Storm side of things, but I'd swap the accuracy in Freezing Rain for a Recharge Reduction, as the accuracy on it is fabulous anyway. [img]/uk/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Only one question, since I think it's a great build:

Why do you have hardly any Power Pools. Apart from Fitness and your Travel Power, there aren't any. Any reason or personal preferance?

Thanks.

Because I didn't have any powers I could justify dropping for extra pool powers.

Playing illusion/TA I have no room for any pools apart from fitness and speed.

However I would probably take fewer archery powers, leaving out Aimed Shot, and possibly fist and explosive, and dip into the Leadership, Medicine or TP pool.

I really should do something about this signature.

Actually, I really want to get Leadership in on this build. But still want Fly and Stamina. So, I think I am going to have to drop some Archery powers. Maybe even...*Sob*...Some Storm Summoning ones.

Yal need a team with this one, very low damage.

Thankyou Praf'! I'll just modify it a bit, but that's really helpful. Thanks for taking the time to do it [img]/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Hey, how's the build going?

Storm/Archery will be my next project too. I agree that there are just too many good powers in both sets to have room for leadership. I respecced into maneuvers and tactics on my storm/elec by dropping voltaic sentinel and thunderous blast and boy did my endurance bar feel it!

I tried out storm/dark to 16 but deleted. I just can't do the dark blast set. The graphics are just so... meh. Big curly hair I think someone once called it and I agree. Absolutely loving archery though on a TA/A and Dark/A so definately going storm/archery next.
