Baring recipe drops I don't really bother with IO sets until post 30.
So any way reposted with how I tend to slot enhancments.

I would replace an accuracy in attacks with an end reducer, thanks to the targeting drone, and would put the 2 slots in health in to the drone for extra to hit buffs

My elec/dev is going to be a PvP blaster. But for PvE I would suggest, smoke grenade. Smoke grenade, wait for stealth to come back fully then run in plant a trip mine and queue ball of lightning while waiting.

Most things will lose most of their health and you sit there picking them off as they try to hit and run with their lowered acc.

But better to try with a primary set with more heavy blasts in it.

This is my blaster build. Mainly set around trip mines and the combo above but using a time bomb and an LRM Rocket. Many people hate caltrops but can keep enemy slowed so they dont trigger mines and keep running. Also helps with protecting yourself from melee and trip mines help there too.

Used IOs. Build was for set IOs so some flaws my be there.

Oops, change that Recall Friend to a TP Foe. Great for setting up heaps of mines with caltrops ontop and teleporting annoying lieus and sometimes bosses onto it. Note that this build has a couple holds and imob for PvP blasting.

Thanks Death_Badger and Serephena

Also stealth bombing sounds awesome!
