The only thing in SD that is getting nerfed is Shield Charge. It is not going to be that bad of a nerf. Shield Charge will still be a nice attack just not as good as it is now.
Now it all depends on what you're going to farm to which toon you should make. I love my Fire/SD because I can farm anything my fire/fire can really only do the Demon farm good. So I would say a Fire/SD/Blaze becasue you can farm almost anything and after the Shield Charge nerf it will still be good just not as good as it is now, but still good.

Fire/Shield
The key to successful farming is two-fold: AOE and having fun so that you can play long enough to "win" against the RND.
I like fire/shield as it farms and kills single targets well. I went with body mastery to put a force feedback proc in energy torrent to get my harvesting tools back asap. Is it as good as fire/shield/blaze? Dunno and dont care because mine is fun! (and there is a two build option so I guess I could test it.)
I personally find elec melee... boring. The set is good, but just feels too slow for my taste.

For primary set I would say fire or spine, which because you don't want spine, you should definitely go fire. As for secondary I suggest the big three defensive: SD, WP, or Invulnerability. Scrappers have their natural talent of hitting bigger numbers with their +crit rating so have a few AoEs with decent recharge and your good on damage, but if you are going to be farming, yea IOs do wonders but you still want a balanced base so you dont have to rely on purps all the time. SD is good but is more team reliant, invulnerability i hear does wonders with resistance. I personally love Willpower (I have tankers though), Willpower not only gives the defense and resistance to basic attks and immobile etc, but gives massive regeneration and recovery that are always on. Just make sure you have rather good money to keep him enhanced to defend and/or use a good base defense like those major three.
So everyone said fire/shield lol...I guess that's it, I have 2 farming toons 1 fully IOed so I can get the money...planning on doing AE rolling silver 35-39, now I just need a build :/

You'll do a lot better rolling bronze. The additional recipes in silver just reduce your % to get a good result and you spend more per roll.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
Ahh I see I will do that, but does bronze give Numina's, LoTG, Impervium armor and such?

So I'm wanting to make a SOLO FARMING scrapper, first scrapper for farming actually so...not so used to it. I was thinking fire/sd fire/fire fire/dark fire/ele or ele/dark ele/fire ele/ele NOT ELE/SD. And no spine toons, I have a spine/dark about lvl 30. I don't want ele/sd of course mainly because of populated reasons. I don't know HOW SD is getting nerfed for sure yet so not to fond of making an SD scrapper if it's getting nerfed badly. Guys give me some tips on what to make for a solo farmer plz =(
