Rad/Rad build needs help


Meltdown

I have returned to the game after a loooooong vacation and I need some help.
I play an Rad/Rad corrupter and would like some suggestions on builds and slotting. (please include ideas for incarnate slots)

I'd be able to help more if you had a build to provide feedback on, but in terms of general stuff:

I'd recommend building for recharge and personal defense. With Scorpion Shield you can get softcapped defenses (45%) to smashing/lethal defense, which will mitigate a great deal of damage. It's of particular use of builds which will often be in melee, like Rad for Irradiate. If you've got high defense on your own build, if you're in a trial almost any defense buffs will bring you to the Incarnate softcap (59%).

High recharge is a given, to make sure AM is perma and to get stuff like LR back up ASAP.

For Incarnate stuff, my default stance is to go either Cardiac or Spiritual. Cardiac if I've already got loads of recharge but need help on endurance, Spiritual if my endurance is fine but I want more recharge. I myself went Cardiac on my Fire/Rad, but Fire is a bit more end-hungry than Rad and I had a fairly toggle-heavy build. For a Rad/Rad, I'd say the three main contenders would be Cardiac, Spiritual (tied for 1st) and Musculature in third.

For Interface, Reactive all the way. More damage, more debuffing. The others aren't worth a damn, IMO.

Judgement, whatever takes your fancy. Pyronic is fast and hard-hitting, Void is also PBAoE like Irradiate and can have a hefty damage debuff, Ion can hit lots more targets but is slow.

Lore, again, whatever takes your fancy/fits your character concept. The Warworks and Cimerorans do the most damage I believe, but they're all pretty powerful.

Destiny, my default stance is to go for Clarion on squishies for the mez protection. Permanent full mez protection on a squishie = do want.
