Help me rebuild my claws/inv
Well, I'm not expert. Far from it. But...
Here's what I tried to throw together. I'm not sure about some of the choices I've made. And I was running out of slots due to the stuff I did like.

And this is my first 50, a MA/Inv. The Inv slotting is pretty odd by the standards I use now, but she's a very robust toon.

Thank you for the builds
Im looking for something that is soft capped with just one foe in range as well. Now, whether or not S/L is the best option, or melee, im not sure. This is where im looking for some help. Your Ma/Inv looks very sturdy, but I feel that I may have more options with claws being my primary.
Again, I really appreciate the help though Postagulous!

"Relatively cheap' and 'softcapped', on an invuln, are not easy to come by.

That said, I don't think (HERESY) you need to worry about soft-capping, as long as you remember layered defenses. Invuln is not the best soft-capping set out there. If thet's what you want, look at shield, or the king of the cap, SR.
For invuln, you want to get high defenses, AND high resists, AND a lot of hit points, AND a nice heal, AND a good regen rate.
Fortunately, you can do all that.
I will post a build that I use constantly. I farm routinely at +2x8 vs Council Empire. I can run the map easily at +4x8 with moderate purple use, but it's slow unless all I care bout is the influence. (115k per +4 boss, and two per spawn, mmmmm.)
Is it soft-capped? Not even close. Doesn't matter.
I've survived manay a team-wipe, for example, at the comp in the ITF. It's fun surfing a mass of robots and two AV's to drop the last few dregs of comp health solo. The hardest part is staying close enough to the comp to hit it with things beyond focus.

Here's the build, have fun:

Thank you for the build mauk2!
I didn't mean softcapped completely, but maybe with 1 or 2 foes in range. Regardless, thank you for the heads up and after looking over your build, ill probably go with yours unless another forumite decides to chime in.
I'm glad you farm on this build, because thats exactly what iv'e been trying to accomplish, and so far at +1/x8 I havnt been doing too bad.

Zaunte's Rage-Claws/Invulnerability
Yeah, while Willpower is the "set it and forget it"/"training wheels" secondary [which I love, btw], Inv is the "am I doing this right" and it all works out because you can't help but be at least half good at everything.
Some phrase like, "Something of all, Master of none." or something.
Yea, I suppose that makes sense. I already respecced and in the process of coming up with some funds to complete the build. Luckily, the build I was running prior to the respec had several of the sets used

Zaunte's Rage-Claws/Invulnerability
Hey all, I recently picked up my claws/inv and actually enjoyed myself so i figured i'd actually invest some time and money into him.
Would anyone be so kind as to throw a build together for me? I'm not looking for the most expensive build, but id also like something to grow into.
Thank you in advance
