Sonic/Energy defender build help


Melancholia

 

Posted

I rarely see this combination in game and nothing really relevant came up in searches so I thought I'd post my build. My main goals are recovery and survivability (i.e. ranged defense) Big questions/caveats:

- Sonic Dispersion slotting?
- I've got Dominate slotted for damage but I'm not sure if I'd be better off with a longer hold; I like having a third damage type but there's not much that resists both energy and smashing
- The shields could use more slots but I'm not sure what to get rid of; also, am I using the best 2-slot set?
- I don't have a ton of recharge but that's on purpose, my only long-recharge power is Liquefy so I didn't want to build around just that
