Heya.
I worked my thoughts out on Mids a bit, with really no clear direction after 40. So, kinda just put some stuff down and tried to find a way to tie it all together. Please keep in mind when viewing that I have little experiance building anything to IO.
Heck, I dont even know if Phase Shift is a good choice these days. Guess I am just wanting a top notch build so that when I do finally step out to try PvP again for the first time in two years, at least any failures there won't be from my character set.. just operator induced.. lol.
Here is what I worked up tonight. It was late night, so I am certain there is much to be tweaked and improved upon. I just went with SOs for the moment so that I could post it for opinions.
Thanks in advance for any critique's of this.

Well, first off, before I throw a build at you, what's your budget (and I mean in more accurate terms than cheap or expensive since those are notoriously vague terms)? Once I find that out, I can let you know more.
If you're interested in simply knowing what you should aim for, that's simple enough: recharge. Because you're BS/*, you don't have to bother with looking for much in the way of defense (you only need enough to get you softcapped with a single application of Parry, honestly), which means, while you'll still want to take some powers that offer it and get some +def set bonuses, you don't need to focus on it as much as other */Regens. This opens you up to focus as much as inhumanly possible on getting +rech, which is going to get you more damage thanks to faster cycling on Hack, Disembowel, and Headsplitter, and more survivability thanks to faster cycling on those all important */Regen click powers.
Here's a reasonably cheap* BS/Regen IO build. It'll net you plenty of ST damage, decent enough AoE damage, plenty of survivability, and infinite endurance sustainability.
* This means no purples and no PvP IOs. It's still going to cost several hundred million, but everything you need can be obtained with merits and/or AE tickets.

To me there's two choices for building set bonuses; either focus on recharge or focus on +defense. For my BS/Regen I went for defense and ended up with soft capped Melee (including Parry) and 28% Ranged/21% AOE. That couples with ~600% regen to give you a character you can be pretty sure will survive. In that build I've managed 25% recharge as a byproduct... there's lots more you could squeeze out if you were looking for a recharge-centric build.|

Well.. newer then the i11 version I found which is the newest guide I could come across here. I am not gifted building a IO'd character on my own, so have need of help from the pro's, please. My Norse Goddess, Vhalla, looks awesome with the set, so I want to try to take her to the next level and keep her active. Any assistance would be appreciated! Thanks. |
I could have found a bit more defense in that build by shuffling things slightly but it seems to be plenty survivable. Also, it's an alt that doesn't get a lot of play anymore... I really only changed him from an exclusive Hami-O build to an IO build as an experiment. He's a great killing machine and very survivable... he's just one of 14 level 50's in my stable and has to compete for "scrapper time" with my BS/Shield and Spine/Regen.
