Should be a solid combination. High resistances, 2 heals, good end recovery, even some bonus recharge.

Siphon Life begs for frankenslotting. It is one power where you really want as much of everything as you can get. That said, slot it like an attack to begin with, focusing on accuracy, damage, and end/recharge. I believe there was a thread on the scrapper forums a while back about the best possible slotting for it if you can find the thread.

Regarding your build the biggest, most horrific issue is leaving Static Shield until 32. This is your status protection and as a tanker you need this as soon as it becomes available. I would ditch (or postpone) one of the attacks (you have 4 by level 6) and pick it up early on.


They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!
