My AR/DEV Blaster's Second Build

At level 33, I realized I had made mistakes on Betty Forever [Freedom] and it was time to make the second build rather than use one of her freespecs, which if I understand right takes my IOs and throws them in the toilet.

There are errors in this build. I know I have mag 12 knockback resistance. I did it for the 1.5% recovery once I was swimming in slots.

The only power choice error I think I've made is bean bag. Betty's at 36 and bean bag is just not doing it for me.\

Edited to add: Crap,I'm over the 5 rule on 2.5% recovery and 9% acc. Hmm.

Freespecs don't get rid of your IOs. I know, I've used them. Where in the heck did you ever get this idea?

That's not completely accurate. If you respec and can't/won't use some of the IO's that you had previously used, you can only keep like 10 of them and the rest get sold.

OH, I understand. If you DON'T USE THEM, then the only ones you can carry are in your tray. Totally different than what I had thought.

Meanwhile...

Well, if Fury Flechette didn't say my build sucked. I guess it's OK. Though I need to get those extra Impervium Armor 2x out and figure what else to put in. In this build, AR/DEV, there really seem to be too many slots. But I'm about to make another alt, a wp/elec tank, and that is the opposite problem. [though khelds forever win in slot starvation]

You give me way too much credit.

I tweaked your build a little and came up with this. I boosted your regen to 309% and boosted recovery a smidgen. I also took out a lot of procs out of your powers/attacks. While they're fun, they aren't exactly effective. In particular, slug had no accuracy in it. :/ I kept the hold proc in gun drone...that's an interesting use for that power I hadn't thought of. Gun drone could be pretty interesting as a proc bot.

I ran out of slots actually...

Anyhow, the build:

Thanks, Fury. I'll have to load this up later as I'm not getting a good feel for what's going on w/o Mids.

Already without many of her sets complete she's behaving much much better.

One thing, just a silly thing, I'd like to do is put a proc in brawl, but the one I like comes too fast. I don't recall which one it is but the set starts at 25 and it's a neg damage proc.

Didn't see any other melee procs for the teens where brawl might still be used.

I'm paying 15m for Posi's I'm having to wait days for. The market is freaked out.
