Dual Blades/Willpower concept Scrapper


Miss Chief

 

Posted

Hi.
Some time back, I made a concept Scrapper, based on V from the movie V For Vendetta. He is obviously a Dual Blades/Willpower Scrapper. Below is the build I've set up atm (not bothered with slotting enhancements yet). Is this an okay build, or will it work nicely? Will I be able to solo red/purple missions without any major problems at 50? I am currently level 26.

Without slots it's difficult to comment but with stamina and Quick recovery Conserve power isn't really going to be needed, even with Focussed Accuracy if you put a few end redux into your attacks and toggles.

Also i would not delay power slice to 49, as it's needed for the sweep combo. Nimble Slash is skippable once you unlock sweep and attack vital comboes. I actually suggest a respec with that in mind when you in the mid 30's.

Also you really don't need the body mastery pool. Conserve power will be next to useless for you. Energy Torrent is another attack, you have taken all 8 from dual blades, which will give you nine attacks total. Plus hasten (which also imo is not needed for dual blade/willpower) you are not gonna have a shortage of attacks.
Having the six attacks for Sweep and Attack Vitals comboes will be eought for an attack chain consisting od stringing those two combos together indefinatly.

I would recommend picking up fighting pool over body mastery, it'll make you automagically winwinvcible.

Also, i never saw the need for having two travel powers.


And you have skipped out on Indomitable will which is your status protection toggle... That boggles my mind.
As well as Mind over Body and Heightened Senses... Not sure what you planned with that, but lose an attack and one travel pool and pick up those three powers. Else you'll have alot of trouble soloing red/purple missions.

It seems I managed to upload the wrong build.. The one I meant to upload had Indomitable Will, and Power Slice at a much earlier level. Where's the bloody edit button?

Anyways, based on your advice, I've made a new spec for when I respec around 35ish, and one for when doing low level TFs/until I respec. I'll post them below. I don't plan on spending TOO much on them, but I might put some sets in the main spec, but probably no purples. Any advice on slots and further advice on power choices is of course still much appreciated, as I'm not very experienced with Scrappers.
