Builds for Cim Wall

What are some good tank builds for just running up and down the Cim wall?


Edit: Really I should just ask what's a good build for killing/tanking groups of Cim's in general that range from +0 to +2, you get the idea.

Inv/any
WP/any

Yes, really.

I'm not much of a tanker-lover but it seems that a softcapped shield toon would do nicely with the extra Defense Debuff Resistance and AoE carnage.

I have no problems on my Tankers, and I run with Elec/Elec, and Fire/Fire most of the time.I hope my SD/Axe build im working on will do the trick too.

My Fire/Fire/Pyre does fine on the wall as well. Have yet to take my Stoner or Dark tank there yet. May have to do that soon, especially the Dark.

My Fire/Mace does well there, too. OF course, its more fun with an AR blaster. They're line up for cones. Easy to mow down.

I have a few characters that I run on the Cim wall.

The one that is easily the most effective from a damage output/survivability perspective is a Spines/Inv Scrapper.

My best Wall Runner is a Shield/Superstrength/Pyre-Tanker.

Willpower/Superstrength/Pyre-Tankers are not bad either, but Shield Charge increases the speed dramatically.

My most efficient characters for working the wall are Spines/WP and Electric/Shield scrappers. A Shield/Electric tanker comes close. The Spines/WP is not even a defensive build, but does feature multiple Chance for Recharge Slow procs, which add the effective equivalent of defense. The scrappers also have Caltrops if things get too heavy.

Any level 50 tanker should be able to work the wall in perfect safety. My Fire/Energy Melee tanker can do it, and that's about as broken as a tanker can be. So can my Dark Armor/Ice Melee tanker. Scrappers will be faster and more efficient, and I'd say an AoE focused scrapper (Spines, Claws, Fire, Electric) with a tough secondary (WP/SR/Inv/Shield) is your best bet.

i have a stone/stone/fire tanker. they cant hurt him and he does well. i open with hurl boulder on the surgeon. i tremor and fireball the rest, with a few single target attacks here and there.

I also hear a SD/electric/pyre that is IO'd out kicks much tail.

I am pretty sure any tank combo could manhandle that wall, especially SS for rage and SD for the def and damage buff.

have fun and good luck!
