Dark Melee/Dark Armor IO Builld.

One of the things that amazed me about IOs is that they can give you knockback protection. my first though obviously was: NO MORE ACROBATICS! 3 MORE FREE POWERS!

So i tried to build up something. And i came up with too few slots (as usual) but i had power slots left! so i took Air sup as a filler attack and fly for the fun.

Now i only hope that someone still plays this lovely set today. Here is the IO build i conjured up. Anyone care to comment. Please burn me down, i havent played since early I7.

"A Scrapper is a lot like a chainsaw. Somewhat hard to handle, incredibly dangerous, and by far the most fun when wielded by the slightly insane."

Soz, I just had a quick look at it. The Numina's Convalescence regen/recovery, you definitely want that one in Health so the recovery/regen effect is perma instead of lasting 2 min.
Not sure of Scirocco's Dervish and Mako's Bite for a DA, I'd go for Crushing Impact and Multi-Strike, but I'll take a more careful look at it tomorrow.
You can also check Larac's Guide on the Guides section.-


Ah I just realized, you can only equip 1 Numina's regen/recovery. For extra recovery, you may want to add another slot in health and use Miracle +Recovery.-

I am basing it on resistance because the defense I can get from set bonuses is too low to be effective and pool defense powers would mean to ditch other toggles, such as CoF and DS.
I'd probably need to shave a slot somewhere to add a LotG +rchg or maybe a Kismet +acc

Hi matey, I'll dig out my current lvl 50 IO build for you, it's currently on my laptop which is in work. As per Nightmarer's post, I have gone for crushing impact and positrons blast. Impervium armor and STeadfast.
As well as 5 of the unique IO's.

It's cost me an absolute bomb, but Its really working for the raids. I'm normally the last man standing in teams.

I did have a bit of a whinege about set IOs and the cost etc. I have to say that I am sort of a convert, but only because after 30mths I have got the INF to finance my wentworth habbit. I still think you can make a damn good DM/DA without any IOs at all.

EDIT: Ah found it. This is what I'm currently running, I know it will be sacalidge to most people due to the fact that I don't have death shroud. But with this build I mostly solo and then on INV. When soloing, it's mostly mob sizes on 3 with 2 mins and one leuit. I can through these so quick that the end drain of DS against the damage it does makes it not worth while. I prefer to have to hit them once each extra with shadow punch and have more end left so I can move onto the next mob quicker.
The only time I suffer from not have DS is in large teams with spawns of 8+ when soul drain and DS gives you a huge amount of damage.

Like I said, it ain't cheap and it wont be for every one. I know I have hit the cap on 2.5% recovery with the Posi's in Tenticles, but I don't mind it not applying for the 9%acc and 6.5% rechrg bonus.
The numbers for regen and recovery are not corrent in Hero Planner. They don't take into account Numina's &amp; Miracle. So I have an extra 25% recovery &amp; 20% regen onto of the number listed bellow.

PS: look out for my I10 DM/DA guide coming on Monday....

Welcome back Shift

Still here from day 1 playing my DM/DA.

The powerset seems to have picked up a following recently especially with Nightmarer and Larac above showing their dedication us DM/DA's

Well, but we're the only 2 from the 'old skool' still playing then?

I mean i think that TSnipeR, Johnny Fiasco, Optical all quit right?

Thats me
I never quit as such, just stopped playing for a while.

I am yet too touch IO's - A: Hate messing with my build and B: only got around 35mill inf, and prices are stupidly high.

Damn having just got my 30mth badge, I must be a Johnnie Comelately....

i 'only' have my 21 month badge (which would be 30 if i'd have kept paying during my absence)

But i don't seem to remember your name from the 1st 2 months. By old-skool i mean pre I4 L50 DM/DAs, those who swore by CoF as it was 'cheap' and could fear bosses.

I am teh old skool too! I'm like a I2 DM DA - I loved CoF in those days *cries*

Aaaaanyway up to date we are an I'd just recommend using the same IO's Larac did Posi Blast, Impervium, Crushing Impact, Scirocco's Dervish and so on even though they are much more expensive.

My two inf worth...

Jup, having the Inf i defenetly use em. Tho i'd still slot in 2 steadfast somewhere (or a steadfast and a karma if they're unique, im not quite sure). Just so i DONT have to pick Acrobatics.

Well, I am not old school at all but I learnt a bit about IO sets lol. Tbh, for a full IO set build, lots of farming and TF's have to be done.

As per Mid's Hero Designer, neither Karma nor Steadfast KB prot are unique.

That could be beacuse I didn't hit lvl 50 until I'd been playing over a year, which would be I6.

As for the steadfast's/Kama's, I'd go for atleast 2 of them. I have 3 steadfast's and 1 Kama, but still get staked KB from some rikti in the invasion.
