Any perma-Eclipse builds out there that DON'T require purples?
Seriously. Been going over and over (and over and over) my warshade rebuild and either I just don't have enough caffiene in my system or I'm stupid (probably both).
I'm finding it damnably difficult to pull up a viable build (dual or triform) that can pick up enough recharge to perma-eclipse without going after purples. While I can afford them, I don't exactly care to go splurging on them. Altitis has left me with a rather herculean respec schedule.... |

Add that to 3 slot hasten and you should be golden.
Proof of concept build in mids .mxd format.
Thanks Je.
Also, something's borked with the file link. The MDX that downloads pulls up empty, then re-adding the sets in continues to add to the totals..
Tried it several times on several computers. Same thing.

Okay, here's the forum export version. As I said, it's just proof of concept, so the slots for each recharge set are keyed out, but I only grabbed the first IO in each set to identify each power for what set it is supposed to receive. Slots for each non-recharge power are not keyed out, so those are the ones that you'll probably want to sort through to get forms or other powers you want.

Positron's blast and Stupefy get you three of the 6.25% bonuses. Decimation (I think that's the one, should be a level 40 set) in two of the single target blasts give you two more.
Five LotG's. Cost you a cool 1000 merits, or 10 hero merits (back then, I spent the 1000 merits). Grab combat jumping and the concealment pool to fit them all.
Basilisk's gaze, four slot, in Gravity Well gives you 7.5%.
If you need it, Crushing Impact in dwarf attacks, and Oblit in the mire is an expensive 5% too (but I recommend an extra slot for some end reduction).
Hasten, of course.
Really, I think that's all you need.
There's also the new Alpha slot stuff that could help you if you go with Spiritual.
Where to now?

Here is what i've done with mine, Eclipse is 81s recharge for 90s duration, without purples.

This is really close to what I have on live with near (under 1 second) perma hasten and perma eclipse. On live I have an Armageddon I won from Organica in black dwarf mire, which is why I left it blank below. There are some slots floating that you could throw in to inherent fitness or move around.

If I were looking for 5 spots for LOTGs on a tri-form I would not get combat jumping.
I would recommend...Shadow Cloak, Grant Invisibility, Invisibility, Maneuvars (put the +perception enh in Tactics) and Vengeance.
Of course, I didn't write the guide that inspired the masses to become MFing Warshades (Great job on that guide btw ).
Altitis has left me with a rather herculean respec schedule....

4 alts down, 46 to go....
As for no purples yeah it can be done just like permadom can be done without purples.

As stated shadowcloak, GI, Inv, Maneuvers, Tactics, and Vengeance is 1 more power than in the build. It is certainly viable however. I would not want to have to drop starless step or nebulous, even as marginally as I do use them for that however..
On that note with inherent fitness I'm probably going to switch out the the Pshifter proc for the +perception global in Nova. It's pretty sustainable already and I don't even have any of the procs in fitness yet.
Seriously. Been going over and over (and over and over) my warshade rebuild and either I just don't have enough caffiene in my system or I'm stupid (probably both).
I'm finding it damnably difficult to pull up a viable build (dual or triform) that can pick up enough recharge to perma-eclipse without going after purples.
While I can afford them, I don't exactly care to go splurging on them. Altitis has left me with a rather herculean respec schedule....
