Claws/Electric basic slotting questions...

Good Morning...

I am working on a Claws/Electric Armor scrapper named Trilobyte (kind of a play on a Paleolithic "computer bug")

I have never tried claws or electric armor before, and I was hoping some one might help me with a basic NON-IO leveling build.

I just hit level 11 and am wondering how many slots Static Shield really needs as my mez protection toggle? just an EndReduc and its good... or more?

Do claws attacks benefit more from 2 acc, 3 dam and an end, ... or a recharge?

By any chance does anyone have a NON IO build they could help me with?

Thank you for taking the time to read this!

While it might be more true later on, you could likely get away with not slotting end reduc into your attacks. With Lightning Reflexes, I would lean towards slotting for end though since it will give you some recharge by default and your end management tools come late.

Might anyone have a non IO build?

Do you think the best slotting for Static Shield would be a single EndReduction early, and damage resists as slots are available around lv 30?

Any help from any user of either Claws or Electric Armor would be greatly appreciated!

Here is a STD lvl 30 IO build. Just note that the Heal Set IOs in Energize are for reg. Heal IOs, mids just didn't have that available, which I think means I'm using one of the messed up versions on my PC, so you may not be able to import, but you can still see what the STD IO build looks like. Also you can swap that second Acc IO, with either a 2nd Rech or an End Redux, its up too you.

I have my Claw/Ela at lvl 28 and frankenslotted for Acc/Dam/Rech, on attacks, and slotted my shields with Reactive Armor to start working on my S/L defense.

I would highly recommend looking to frankenslot you attacks, look for the cheapest available set IOs around lvl 25-30, 2 Acc/Dam, 2 Dam/Rech, and 1 Dam/End should give you nice values that you won't have to reslot, ever, unless you switch to using full sets.

And I'd highly suggest slotting Res first, then an End Redux. Claws gets and End discount, so /Ela is even less inclined to need then some other sets.

I assume they will recognize futile just as accurately.
