I am also doing this build. What I plan on doing is going for as much melee defense as possible since the smashing/lethal part might as well not even be there. Also its easier to build for melee defense. As for as the attacks go make sure you are choosing sets for defense set bonuses or recharge. The ones that give +damage make a bigger impact than most folks think so thats something to think about. If you use the alpha slot go for the resistance as that will allow you to use few slots in WP as well as in the Tough power.

Thank You Devs for Merits!!!!
I'm curious, was a good set up for Parry. I think I can manage 6 slotting it but what IO would one say works best to produce the best results? In a Scrapper build I see Touch of Death (6/6) but are is the debuff going to work better than LoTG? Or is it because the user capped their recharge already?
Sorry for the necro'ing but anybody feel like taking a stab at this combination?
Hi!
I cant find any builds for BS/WP, and mine is lvl 46, so in a bit I will be able to slot sets and stuff.
Can you post your build here, Stryph?
Thank you.
I'm trying to look for a good build for PVE dominance (slaughtering and badge-*******) as my main. I have a few complete, if not almost, sets as it stands right now. But kind of curious as to what may make a good build that both makes me more resilient and a heavy hitter. PVP isn't really what I'm interested in on this toon due to the probability of BS just being too slow to really be a big threat against other rivaling DPS archtypes.
Unfortunately when I try to run the current hero planner it just crashes. So I'm frustrated about that. Right now as it stands I have: Obliteration, Crushing Impact, Doctored Wounds, and Luck of The Gambler as sets I have right now with LoTG missing global recharge at the moment (which I'll have once I get two Hero Merits to buy one). As it stands Headsplitter is keeping Obliteration and while I originally had Crushing Impacts in Assassin Strike I may switch that out for Mako's Bite or something else... dropping ten damage bellow HS makes me feel like I gimped it unless that's the same for all AS IO sets.
With the respect in mind, my toon is level 50. And I'll be getting rid of Fitness to gain three new powers. He's hero side as well and I'll probably open up Body Mastery.
Parry maybe a viable option though, even though I never favored it amongst my other BS toons I've had in the past. This one particularly has me curious especially after hearing you can get it to stack multiple times over which could benefit my current defense at the moment. I'm wondering how to slot this one up in particular.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and noted. I'm still practicing with learning IOs as well as being low on influence to really experiment. So feel free to, if you wish, throw out some ideas or planners I can use as a template.
