Need some professional analysis on Fire/SD build

Negescape · 08-20-2009 10:27 AM

I know that DM/SD is supposedly more dps, but I have a SD/DM tanker and I'm not really out to replicate that in the scrapper world. I had to ditch Hasten (I hate Super Speed) in favor of getting Aid Self. Hover/Fly was a concept choice.

Anyway, what I'm mostly wondering is if I can eek out more damage or recharge somewhere, and if Aid Self is needed to the point that it's more preferred than grabbing Hasten is. Tried my damnedest to stack regen, but until I have the character actually built I won't know if the heal is still needed.

I don't have access to mids right now so I'll put in my input on it later.
But regarding aidself and hasten. I've done a pylon under 5 minutes , take on AV's, do the RWZ challenge and do 2 spawns of RWZ challenge without a self heal nor hasten on the build. So either one of them is needed.

Actually I built this assuming 35% defense was the cap for scrappers, so now I need to scrap it and start over. Unless 35% works just fine.

45% is the key, from what I understand. The difference you get from 40% to 45% makes getting the last 5% worth it. I can imagine its even greater going from 35%.

Was kind of suspicious about how incredibly easy it was to get to 35%. Basically left room for whatever I wanted to throw in there.
