First major look at my warshade build

Posted

Currently level 30 on the live servers so thought it would be best to start planning my finished build. Any thoughts and hints would be greatly appreciated since im still unsure about a few powers in the build.

EDIT: As you can probs guess im trying to be in human form most of the time (hence why iv slotted for increased immob/holds).

I don't think you'll be able to slot the Decimation Chance for Build Up in a human form power and a Nova power. It's unique.

TBH I'd consider reviewing and looking at getting recharge bonuses.
Warshades benefit a HUGE amount from these, and rack them up with Hasten you could be looking at perma' Eclipse and perma' 2 X extracted essence. More likely 3 on a team with a minimum external buff to you, or if you got lucky and got a few LOTG recharges.

You might want a bit more accuracy in Eclipse. And 'Mire.

I considered the Human Form Dark Detonation to be utter pants and left it well alone. Not a patch at all on the Nova Form version.

I might be missing it, but if you're planning to spend most of your time in human form, I'd reccomend some KB protections from either Acro', or an IO, which in PvE will cut out nearly all KB bar a few things at high level. Fake Nemesis Force Bolts. Psi' mobs with TK blast. Stuff like that. But they are few and far between. Unlike the horde of stuff that will otherwise KB you around Paragon without such things .

Nothings more annoying, or dangerous, than getting KB'd out of a mob when trying to Eclipse or Mire .
