My Warshade Build Need feedback

Silvre · 03-12-2011 09:18 AM

Hello Everyone, this is my current build. It's not complete yet. I still have to choose a skill at lvl 47 and 49. I also still have 8 slots left. My Warshade is currently at lvl 40. I plan on getting IO sets at this level so I can make eclipse permanent or close to permanent at least so leveling can be a bit easier.

My main goal with this build was make Eclipse Permanent and I believe I made it permanent with the help of Hasten. Recharge on Eclipse with this build is currently at 110 secs and this is without Hasten. With Hasten, Recharge is at 88 seconds.

Hastens recharge, with it on and affecting its own itself is at 132 seconds. So my plan is to have Hasten down while Eclipse is working, so as soon as eclipse has worn off, I would have hasten going again.

But because of trying to get Eclipse permanent, I also focused most of my enhancements sets into getting the recharge enhancement sets (5% recharge ones). I have 2 luck of the gambler recharge currently on the build. I may plan on getting 3 luck of the gambler recharge by getting weave so I can slot it the 3rd time again but I'm not sure if this is a good idea. This will in turn free up 4 slots on one of my skills since it requires 5 slots to get the +5% recharge speed bonus on all the sets. I hope that wasn't confusing.

Also, in the long run, I'm planning on replacing some of the sets with Arma or Heca, whichever is accessible to me at the time over time. So that I could even free up some more of my skills with the set and some slots even. As for now, I'm trying to make a good build that could solo well at possibly x8 difficulty if possible (for farming shards of course).

I also plan on getting the incarnate that focuses on recharge so that I could free up even more of the slots with the 5% enhancement recharge set bonus. Unless these slots were all just fine.

I still have not slotted the other skills since most of them, or at least all of them, unless I missed something, will be useless for me and will be unused most of the time.

I have a budget of around 1billion atm. There might be some sets I have missed or might have not known and I'm hoping you guys could help me. Let me know if I need to start over in this build. I know I'm missing a lot of gaps.

Finally, my main playstyle for this build is to transform between all the forms in the middle of battle to utilize all the AoE attacks they have. Eclipse will help big time in making the squishy forms not so squishy anymore.

Oh, and also, the skills that are slotted the most are the skills I'll be using all the time on each form. Thank you in advance.

Here's the build atm.

Ok, I redid my build. What I did was look at everyone else's build in this forum and noted what they did on each of theirs and compaired it to mine to see what similarities they had and noted IOs that I didn't know about. I hope this is not in anyway stealing someone else's build. If so, I apologize in advance.

This was my 2nd attempt at making a build (cheap preferably) so I had no idea the how and I wasn't familiar which IOs were great and popular. But looking at everyone else's, I was able to figure out how and discovered IOs I never knew existed before and thanks to those people! Here is my new and improved build. My main goal was to have Eclipse permanent with partial help from Hasten and I believe I was able to do it.

I also tried to get Regeneration as much as possible. I'm not sure if this will work but I also tried to increase my HP regen as much as possible. I thought that with Eclipse on, I was still going to get damaged but not by a lot now since I don't have that much Def. But with HP regen, it would at least subtract the damage I get from enemies. This will give me enough time to kill some monsters for use with Stygian Circle to replenish my health and endurance. I'm not sure if this will work so I appreciate any feedback from this thought.

I'm not able to tell how much enemies that needs to surround me to reach res cap on eclipse. Please let me know with my current build. I had 2 extra resistance buff IOs slotted to Eclipse but even with 1 slotted, it reached the res cap buff enhancement on the skill according to Mids so I decided to remove the 2 slots and put them instead somewhere else.

Here's my new and improved Build.
