En/En blaster PvpP build guide anywhere?


Coin

 

Posted

I've had a look here and on the Balster forum, but I can't seem to find anything about a build for a Energy/Energy blaster specifically for PvP?

Anyone got a link to one, or can give any advice?

So for I have this as a possible build for Coin....

Looking at your build and already having a pvp build on my main for awhile now i would reccomend the following:

Attackwise 2 accs are enough especially as blasters get BU and Aim. Also frees up a slot for a recharge or endred on the last slot, and how did u get a heal in bonesmasher

CJ only needs jump enhances so you can drop the defbuf and endred and if u can spare the slots slot it with 2 jumps, although i would slot up hurdle first since unsuppressed movement is key to survival.

You might want to think about switching aid other 4 stimulant to save slots as well, unless its for pve. I would also slot aid self with interupt reduces if your thinking about using it to heal mid fight.

Epics if u intend to use the hold needs to fully slotted to be useful in my experince of it otherwise u might want to try out the force and cold epics since they give you pff, FoN and hibernate respectively which imo are more useful for pvp.

Other than that u might find boost range to be useful with the long animation times of energy attacks, and if u want to free some slots up for other attacks then take the tohits away from BU and Aim since with power boost they aren't that important.

Heal in Bonesmasher?....silly HeroBuilder software!!

I did forget to put the intterupts in Heal Self so I added them and dropped a couple of To hits in Aim and Build.

I love the Elec Mastery though, the armour is the bestone I find and the Hold is handy on certain AT's I find

here's a revamped version....

Decent enough build but theres a few changes I would make:
- I would switch health for swift for unsuppressed movement.
- You need interupt reductions in aid self
- Elec mastery isnt the best for an Energy/Energy 95% of pvpers have acro meaning you need to stack two holds so you're better off with cold mastery (hibernate) or force mastery (force of nature). Drop power push for the third epic.
- Boost range is really good with Energy blast as power burst is short range probably worth swapping for nova or conserve power.
- Not much point slotting 3 Accuracy as mostly when you attack you will be using aim + bu so better off having recharges or end reductions
- Slot jump in CJ nothing else.

Well, I love the Elec Mastery, so I don't wanna drop it. I still want the build to be good enough for Pve as well, especially as I9 looks like it migh actually give me some other reason to play Coin more

The ranged hold is more for the few toons who don't have a hold defence, or when i managed to get a stun on the perhaps, I dunno, but I love the charged armour, so i wanna stick with it. I tried some of the others, not too keen on them, tbh.

here's my latest one, I wanna try these out on Test first though, before I change anything on live.

Welp, I bit the bullet (sort of ) and got a new build more built for PvP, but should still be fine for PvE, on the test server if anyone out there fancies helping me test it and get an easy win, that would be very much appreciated

Just wanted to say thanks for the help all. I settled on a build, i think and tried it on test, seems to be pretty decent, just need to get some practice in with him, i think

How do you find Nova in PvP Coin; I'm still of the opinion that it bombs out too much and is only really useful as "Well, I'm gonna die anyway"


 

Posted

Tbh, never used it nor likely to, form what people have told me about how useful it is, I kept it in cos I still wanna PvE with Coin as well and it rocks in that

A couple of friends have said it's ahndy againt MM pets though? Not sure, not had chance to try it yet

New build is great though, actually managed to last more than 30 seconds against Spawnus Fire tank now, which is better than the last time when he wiped me without even blinking

And I went toe to toe with a Regen Scrapper as well, which was nice
