I think you're on the right track. DM/SR or DM/Invuln should suit the need nicely.

SR's a beast. DM covers the major hole of SR (no way to recover from the damage that does get through), and SR complements DM well with Lightning Reflexes (allowing Soul Drain and Dark Consumption to be used more frequently).
Invuln is probably better than SR if you want to invest a large amount of cash, but if not go with SR>

I agree, if you plan on spending a lot of inf Invuln will be more rewarding...except against Psi. If you want something that will be capable of taking on late-game Psi opponents more easily, then I'd go with /SR. Also, /SR has easily capped DDR, so against Def Debuffing enemies it will also shine.

I can't speak for SR, but my DM/INV is amazingly survivable, always seems to be welcome in groups and can easily do solo work on almost anything.
End Game- LVL 50 Scrapper-DM/INV
Ripjak- LVL 50 Defender-Rad/Rad
Extruder- LVL 50 Scrapper-DM/REG
Juicie- LVL 50 Blaster-ELEC/ELEC
Mind Sync- LVL 50 Controller-MIND/FF
I know survivability is a requirement for the combo, and all of the replies so far have been about that...but I'd like to point out that my DM/Elec is a beast.
I havn't quite worked out my build, and nowhere near funded enough to softcap as of yet, but so far, its quite fun.

Thanks folks. I've been gone all week and unable to reply until now.
Anyone able/willing to post their builds?
thanks in advance!
As many of you have seen, Ive posted about trying to work out my DM/WP. For whatever reason I really want it to work out, but I find it lacking.
The problem I see with the combination is that I either have to give up recharge/haste or softcap, and I would rather not have to use shadow punch and boxing as slot mules. Heck, I even have to use shadow punch in my attack chain.
Then I read a post on DM/SR and that seems to be a much better combination. Heck, maybe DM/Inv too. Ill be the first to say I play the game for enjoyment, but Ive not been able to really spend time wrapping myself up into how the numbers works.
I am just looking for a scrapper that I can solo/group with, enjoy the game and not drop dead a bunch. I would love to hunt down some AV solo style and enjoy as many missions as my time allows. I am still working on my DM/WP, so I cant really judge him as I expect him to be. I just dont want to continue on if SR is a better option.
BTW: Im not interested in Shield for concept reasons.
Anyways, Im on the road for business a lot so I will only be one some tonight and will be gone to Texas for the week. If someone could give some general advice Ill be happy to take it.
As always, thanks in advance and have a great week!
