Need help with Natural Stone/Stone tank
also i would like to have jumping powerpool. with fitness and fighting powerpools. but i need help with what io's i will need and what powers are the best this is my first stone tank.
The jumping pool is somewhat counter intuitive for stone because you can't use CJ when you're in granite. You can jump at all when you're in granite really. Obviously you can get Jump Kick, but you then you only have SJ purely as a means of getting from hither to thither. Most stone builds take teleport for this reason because they can use it to teleport to the next pull rather than run at 4.5 mph to it. But, to each his own.
If you're really set on jumping over teleport, you can slot a few IO sets with run speed bonuses (Performance Shifter 2 slot, Aegis 2 Slot, Gaussian 2 slot are a few examples), as well as taking sprint, and at least get your running speed back up to pre-sprint levels.
what about if i took superspeed? cuz i wanted hasten to help with recharge so i figured i might as well maybe get SS if i get hasten. do you know any good builds for a stone/stone tank? i looked on here but got tired after reading past page 20. most of the stone tanks on here are magic and i have natural. are all IO's the same or is it like enhancements where IO's have a certain origin?
Aside from teleport, you can't toggle a movement increase power while in granite. IOs are indifferent to origin. The only thing that cares about your origin is a few temp powers and DO/SOs.
Taking Swift at 6 followed up by Rooted at 8 will make things work fairly smoothly for you. After getting Stamina at 20, Fault is your next milestone for greatly powerful mitigation and aggro control purposes for teaming. After that...do whatever. It's not that complicated a build.

So far as build advice goes, the best threads a quick search turned up on the topic were these 2:

Hope that this gives you some help.
i'm looking for a very good build for a natural Stone/stone tank. Looking for something to breeze through PvE. not looking to solo anything but it would help if it could solo things. but any builds would help. thanks!
