Another Claws/WP build assist request
Some quick ideas:
I think the Analyze Weakness in Slash is unnecessary, if you really wanted a proc like that I think the GSFC BU proc in FU would be better.
I would switch RttC to Numi pieces for the +HP, you have solid recovery already.
It's not a bad choice, but I prefer 4 piece perf shifter in QR. It has a higher HP bonus, and also adds the proc which is better than any single L50 IO worth of End Mod in QR.
I think the regen tissue is unneeded, but if you want to keep it - put it in health. Save the slot, health with 1 L50 IO in it is giving you 2 HP/S (if my mids is accurate).
I don't think the panacea proc is worth it. If you have that kind of inf to spend, I think you'd be better off putting it towards the Glad Unique instead.
Toughness doesn't need the 5th reactive armor piece, it's not doing much.
Thanks for the review Deus
I agree with what youre saying that GSFC might be a good option in follow-up, but Im also using the RRs currently in follow-up to add those particular bonuses. I might use a chance for damage type in there instead, maybe something like negative.
I switched to Numi in RttC, thanks!
QR is a strange one. I could get slightly beeter regeneration or a few more hit points. Still pondering, but overall I dont think it makes too much of a difference.
I have previously moved the regenerative tissue around a bunch, and in fact tried to move it into health. However Mids is showing that the current layout is the best for regeneration. If accurate, I drop around 10% of regeneration.
Ive already got the Glads in SoW, although I do agree that Panacea might be a waste. If I keep it then it would be the last item I invest in. The slight bonus to both health and end helps, but might be over done. I had even thought of not taking PP, but then what else? Assault gives so very little imo and nothing else seemed like a benefit, since I dont have many slots to invest in.
The 5th reactive armor helped with lower endurance cost and got me to over 35% def for fire & cold. Yes, its not much
but out of ideas on where to put the last slot.
Ive been thinking of moving a few of the extra slots into boxing for another set of kinetic combat, which would bring me over the 45%.
The good thing is I have a long way to go before I reach 50. Oh, and I might have 2 billion saved on all of my toons, but I like goal setting.
Thanks
up for more opinions and assistance.
Mids shows that follow-up's duration is 13 seconds, is that accurate? If not, could someone please let me know how long it lasts?
thanks!
First, I understand there is another build request for the same combo on the first page, but the final plan is a bit different. I'm looking for advice on the concept below.
I guess one question I have is if not taking haste is going to play much of a factor? All of my attacks are under 6 seconds, and even better if forced feedback kicks in with shockwave; which I added more for whatever. I really think I have more attacks than I will even really use, but they helped with def bonus and such.
As I was building this toon, I originally had tactics but instead gave myself some extra melee def and to-hit bonus in follow-up.
Endurance is better than mids shows, due to the two Performance Shifters and the Panacea.
The Analyze Weakness in Slash might be a bit unnecessary, but it cant hurt in with the new content.
I guess my real problem is finding an alt I stay interested in. I leveled a SS/Inv brute to level 50 and even incarnated him some, but I just dont feel it. I cant seem to get any non-melee past level 25; I just like the up-close melee better I guess; I will continue to try again. Claws seems to be a solid balanced melee combatant with area and st attacks. I guess Im looking for an character that I can run all content. I have a DM/WP scrapper, which I enjoy playing, but I would like better AoE. <--- just some background.
