Anything to watch out for with a Spines/Electric scrapper?

I was doing a little studying of the pwersets and it appears to be a real strong set.

Wondered if anyone had experience of it?

End was a big problem until stamina. Animation times on spines seem painfully long. The AoE goodness of the set.

Take Energize at 22 and slot it up ASAP.


H: Blaster 50, Defender 50, Tank 50, Scrapper 50, Controller 50, PB 50, WS 50
V: Brute 50, Corruptor 50, MM 50, Dominator 50, Stalker 50, AW 50, AS 50
Top 4: Controller, Brute, Scrapper, Corruptor
Bottom 4: (Peacebringer) way below everything else, Mastermind, Dominator, Blaster
CoH in WQHD

Not happenning with DO's/SO's while leveling up, not happening fighting +4's at higher levels.

Teaming with someone with taunt or an AoE immob would be a more realistic solution.

Spines/Electric doesn't have any knockback. Unless you're talking about some other kind of scatter.

The toon I play the most for the last month or so is a level 50 spines/elec with soft-capped smash/lethal. (slag monkey on freedom)

He's an AoE monster that is very very difficult to kill. The only thing I even pause for is enemies with high Psi Damage.

Leveling up I didn't take spine burst. Instead I focused on single target damage while running my 2 toggles. The single target chains for spines are very endurance efficient so I never had any endurance issues. Around level 40 I respec'd to a more AoE focused build. With the endurance management available by then endurance has never been a problem.


I gotta make pain. I gotta make things right. I gotta stop what's comin'. 'Least I gotta try.

Well, I am starting a Spine/Elec, Spine/Dark and Spine/Fire superteam. It's the only thing you have to watch out for, since we plan on just steamrolling through stuff :P
