Spines/Dark Build Thread

Thanks Santorican.

I just had a really great idea for an I19 build. I'll be going villain side to pick up shadow meld

Nice! Now if only I can get Leandro's patch to work! :X

Hey, you can't add APPs and PPPs to a build at the same time, that is lame-o-roni!

Here is an I19 iteration of my build, can anyone help me run the endurance calculations?

I am a little bit confused about your build, because on one end you have the gladiator's armor unique and on the other you have very few superior sets slotted. You do realize that the GA enhancement ranges from 2 to 4 billion influence correct? If so thats fine, and if you can afford them I'd suggest slotting the superior sets into Lunge, Impale, and Throw Spines, the added rec, regen, and rech will really help out your build.

I'd also slot the performance shifter proc into PP on average it adds more end/s than a regular end mod enhancement.

Endurance, endurance, that has always been the main problem with my spines/dark scrapper. Now with i19 i'm thinking about going backwards, and... dropping physical perfection, to grab some defense instead. I'm currently running with that build:

Okay I've been playing my spines/dark scrapper for a long time and he is probably my most survivable toon, even beating out my tanks(which I've never been good at making). But I have a question, why Opressive Gloom over Cloak of Darkness? I would think the -to-hit would be more beneficial than the mag 2 disorient. I know the DR can offset the -hit points but is OG that much better than CoD? Or is this really just an IO set holder?

Also, I'm planning a (semi)purpled build starting now as my second build. Until now I've never liked to respec because I feel like I make changes that are hard to adjust to. I guess I just get used to the build as I level that by the time I hit 50 I know when and where to use most powers. Plus I've never been one to min/max anything, I just build to what looks like it makes sense for that power. Usually leaving me with odd set choices for an overall build. I like survivabilty with damage. I love the flowing orange numbers. So when someone says what am I building for I have to say damage first, survivability second. So should I look at defense, type or positional; or focus on recharge for spammage of DR?

I'm not at home but will try to post a build for critic. I'm sure my current build is horrible to you all but it's what has worked for me so far. BUT I'd sure like to make him a bit more uber.

Its personal preference some people prefer CoF over OG, personally I don't like CoF due to its high endurance costs.

Is spines/dark still the AoE king of scrappers? I just leveled a fire/rad controller & LOVED seeing the orange numbers bloom. Seems like it may be too much aoe though, some think it has a lack of ST attacks?

I'll definitely try one of these builds though, thanks guys!

I honestly don't know, I'd probably say not anymore. I'd give the AoE king title to Electric/Shield.

I am not sure how I feel about this build, it has more recovery but it also has higher endurance consumption. It has a little bit more defense and recharge.

This is a Claws build I threw together with the help of a couple of posters here in the Scrapper forum about a month back. Gets lot of defense and good recharge. Maybe some useful ideas in here.

Great builds all, thanks for posting!

Does a spines/da greatly benefit from taking Tough & Weave? I'm considering a build without one, but at lvl 14, she still dies alot...not sure if powers and slots will help that in the coming levels though.

Thx for the advice!

Tough and Weave do benefit the set greatly. Once you can afford the end drain, they will make your a lot tougher. If you don't plan on going for a defense build you could probably get away with skipping Weave.

Here's my pride and joy, From the Darkness, I've spent much time on this build. Before you look at it, take into account that I use cardiac boost so I have no endurance issues to speak of. The only real issue (cost wise) with the build is the gladiator armor 3% def. Other than that the cost is manageable.

Hey everyone! I've been lurking around this thread for a while now, and I've decided to toss my spines/da build up. I really enjoy this toon, and I feel it's one of the best best pve toons I've ever played. The way I decided to build my toon was for soft cap'd s/l def, end. management, then everything else into recharge. I run the End Reduc/Resist Buff alpha, as well. This guy has no problems mowing things down at a decent clip while managing his blue bar. This build is VERY pricey. I don't play a lot of toons, so when I do roll one up, I typically go all out on them.

Thorw my new issue 19 build in here as well. Been a tough thing respec'ing so many of my characters and this boy has fallen slightly by the wayside compared to my S/L softcapped SS/Dark brute and my softcapped M/R/Aoe Dark/Shield but he may come back into play over my S/L softcapped fire/dark, claws/dark and ss/fire.

Hey guys..
So I've recently slotted my spines/dark that... i'll be honest... mostly leveled off of monkey farms.
I'm a 64ish month vet so I decided to take the quick and easy route with him. I've gotten a good handle on how to play him... yet having issues with endurance and was looking over this thread for ideas.

First of all are there any new updates on any of your builds?

Also (forgive me cause my comma buttons doesn't work so I may seem gramatically incorrect)... I was wondering what you were doing with Dark Regeneration in you most recent build Sant? Any specific reason you have 4 different sets in it? Just for the bonuses?

Why no Cloak of Fear on any of these? with fitness becoming inherent I figured it would be a good thing to spec into.. however I don't really see anyone here with it...?

I went with Conserve Power.. Focused accuracy and physical perfection for the epp's. any more explanation on why the slotting was worked the way you did it?

I have other questions but it's late and I must go to bed and am too tired to think.. I look forward to your responses.

@Bothsides

Also.. i went with Hover instead of Combat jumping.. advantages? disadvantages?

Right now my character is going through a transitional phase I am trying to get all of my enhancements to L30 so I can keep most of his bonuses to L27 so the build might seem alittle crazy.

I don't really like CoF some people like it but I've never really had the slots to dedicate to it to make it actually useful.

The slotting in DR is mainly to have good acc/rech/end and its cheap lol.

I've changed the slotting in PP in the build I'm going to post and I got rid of FA because I never used it.
