Input on a Claws/Invul build

Techbot Alpha · 05-07-2010 01:38 PM

So, not an expert with IO slotting scrappers, and was hoping you guys could help me out a tad. This is the build I have so far, having realised that it was probably easier to aim for nearly softcapped S/L rather than Melee or anything else, due to Invincibility saying it adds defence to all when it doesnt...

Here's what I have so far. The concept is a hero in your typical, Vanguard-esque armour. I can drop out the weapons pool fairly easily if it helps stuff shunt around, I just thought it added a nice bit of flavour to the char.

Hmm, dunno wether to be glad or worried. Is it ok and doesn't need commenting on? Or is it so bad people don't want to touch it with a barge pole?

Well just looking at it really quick, I would slot Follow up better. In your build you have ok damage and good accuracy, but I would want it to come up more so put some recharge in it. It is a great buff and for me what makes claws so good.

Beside that it is a ok build, it is better to go for S/L defense than melee because that want Inv gives. You can also go for E/N/F/C too but it dose take a lot to get it to the soft cap.

It would be nice if you could get mid 30's or higher for your Energy/Negative Energy Defense as well.
