Fire/Electric Anyone?

Greetings Scrappers and Scrapettes,

I recently rolled a Fire/Elec Scrapper based on a goofy character concept I had. I haven't seen too many running around the streets of Paragon, so my question is, does anyone have experience with this combo? What are your thoughts regarding the effectiveness of the Primary & Secondary powers? What are the "Must Have" & "You Can Skip" powers? What, if any, IO Sets should I keep in mind? etc...

Frayed Wire just dinged level 30 last night, and has been a ton of fun to play so far. I hope your ideas, comments & suggestions will make for an even better play-experience on the way to 50 and beyond!


Johnny Aces - lvl 50 Katana/Regen Scrapper
Tommy The Cat - lvl 50 - SS/EA Brute
Capt'n Frosty - lvl 50 Ice/Ice Tank
Frayed Wire - lvl 50 Fire/Electric Scrapper
Spectral Visonary - lvl 49 Ill/Rad Troller

I haven't tried it but I'd like to know how it does with two heals, and two endurance regaining power. Do you plan on taking anything like stamina or PP with dark consumption and power sink?

The combination Fire Melee and Electric Armor only has one heal and one endurance recovery power.

Dark Melee and Firey Aura (and now Electric Armor) has two heals and two endurance recovery powers.

I tried a Fire/Elec once. After a few levels or realizing I would never have any real significant mitigation except for death, which some enemies manage to have some resistance to in the early levels, I never thought of it again. then again, that was before Energize.

Electric Melee/Fire Aura is not a bad idea though, especially ElM/FA/Blaze. It may not be as efficent as other AoE machines, but it will look the coolest.

Wow, now I feel like an idiot. I just breezed over the post and thought he said DM/fire
