Bane Build (2); Request Critique & Suggestions
There is so much wrong here I don't know where to begin. I posted what I thought was a solid build in your other thread -- or the other recent BANE thread, anyway -- and the only criticism leveled against it was that it didn't have TOUGH for fighting def-debuffers. *shrug*
Here, your build loads with Demonic Aura toggled on. With that off, your DEF and RES numbers are horrible (except S/L RES due to Tough) and your slotting is bad. Seriously 3 Recharge IOs in a pet? not even trying for a set bonus? Teleport Foe?
Anyway, since I can't tell if you're really looking for help or trolling, I'm going to point you back towards the other recent BANE threads.
No, I am not trolling. These are my first posts. I am genuinely looking for assistance. After reading so many other posts and looking at various builds, I thought I would seek the advice of more experienced players.
Browse my Build Archive (Google Docs). Understand, it's just an archive, the builds vary in quality and source. With that in mind, you'd be much better off comparing those builds till you find one you like, then modifying from there.
This is where my current Bane is heading on his next respec. He's ok, but I think he can be better. Your comments are most welcome.
