Scorpion Shield for Defenders?


Kinrad

 

Posted

If I do a respec on my level 50 Kin/Rad can I pick Scorpion Shield, or do I need to become a villain first and do the patron arc?


Make a man a fire and keep him warm for the day, SET a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life.

I can deal with that, thanks!
If I decide to go back to being a hero after that, can I keep the scorpion shield, or am I stuck with being a villain?

Once you unlock a patron, you always have access to the pool.

Oh heck ya, I have it on my fire/dark corruptor to cap S/L, and Kin/Rad is going to go the same route!

Thanks for answering my questions guys!

If you think it's awesome on the Corruptor, wait until you get it on the Defender.

It's base value is 12.75% on Corrs. For defenders, it's 15%

"Properly slotted", of course, just means one End, two Def if you're using level 50 common IOs.

Yep, and of course one of the 5 LOTG 7.5% you're allowed in a build.

Or 5x Red Fortune + LotG: Def/Global Recharge if you have slots to burn

One other thing you may want to be aware of, if you don't have high level villians you've done it on already, is that you can do ANY of the patron arcs and it unlocks all the Patron pools. Thus if you prefer one of the other arcs because of the stories, or the foes, or the badge, feel free.

And the only defender I'm not doing this on is my rad, since I like the epic sleep and Dominate in the Psi pool too much and the rad debuffs achieve much (though not all) of the same protection.

Another note: You also earn a handy respec upon completion of the villian patron arc.
