E/E epic
Just out of interest, would that be Energy/Energy or Elec/Elec?

...or Energy/Elec or Elec/Energy?
Bad? Redraw. You pull out an assault rifle whenever you use it.
I'm a fan of Force Mastery myself. Especially if you're Energy/Energy as it fits thematically.
Sorry he's Nrg/Nrg.
I prefer ice mastery for all purposes... AoE slow, AoE sleep, good S/L defence shield and hibernate. Covers pretty much everything a blaster might want!

I like Elec, AoE stun, good ST hold and alright armour

As much as I like Force Mastery (or, at least, the idea ) I'd have to say Elec Mastery as well. The Energy/Energy Blaster I regularly team with has gone with it and it's just... great.

Is elecs EM pulse one of those nukes that drain all your endurance?
Nope, although it will drain your enemies and disorient them

And give you a 10sec -100% recovery.
The power is lovely with Powerboost, heavy slotted it can nearly fully drain lts and some bosses. But it has no -recovery aspect, so mobs gain back their endurance. Good side, Powerboosted the stun duration is serious long
Each Epic has good and bad parts. Fire has some nice tricks and a self rez, ice got my beloved hibernate, nrg got the FoN, elec got the stun (but pathetic long recharge) and amunition is only tbh usefull on AR blaster.

My thoughts so far are:-
Force-purely defensive and so not fitting of my toons style
Cold-Aoe slow I like,Aoe sleep I question the value of given the amount of offensive Aoe that will instantly negate it's effect,Hibernate again is a purely defensive power.
Elec-nice hold,nice cone and a kind of weak Pbaoe with stun and very slow recharge.
Munitions-nice hold,dubious Aoe sleep (see Cold),nice Aoe snipe thats 3*faster than Em pulse.
The only other interesting point of note is the synergy between the stun of elec and the stuns of bonesmasher/total focus which could mean a mag 10 stun for about 10 sec with power boost active. I'm not sure how mags work though cause I've applied a mag 7 stun to an AV which I thought would be enough to stun it though it didn't appear to.
Anyway thanks for the help and good gaming.
Dont forget EM pluse has a 15 sec -recovery. If you continue to spam, you're out of endurance really fast.
Hibernate is like a 'use at any time rest' power. Lovely regen and recovery while nothing can hit you.
And impressing of dmg of the elec cone, its roughly energy torrent damage.
You shouldnt see epic's as aditions to your attacks, more like supportive powers.

Epics are there to fill holes in your character's performance, not to add on to your primary secondary (although several powers do this also). Example: for Tankers and Scrappers, this would be ranged attacks and some control.
For Blasters this would mostly be survivability.
My E/E blaster is approaching 41 and I was thinking of starting the munitions pool. Can anyone tell me whats good and bad about this pool and are there any better for an E/E blaster. Thanks.
