Crab questions?
Crabs can vary from Tank to Blaster depending on how you build them. There have been several rather lengthy discussions following these lines recently. Read further into the forums for several examples. You can also browse the archives in my sig for more example builds.
i feel a crab is definitely more blaster like, but they do have very strong defenses which can allow them to tank, especially since they can easily build for ranged defense and have a lot of built in mez protection
Welcome to, as my SG calls it, the awkward 30s. You have most of your core abilities, some of your frilly abilities, and nowhere near enough sockets to make them efficient or effective yet. At level 35 you can get your small pets and at level 38 you can get your medium pets, both of which should give you a sizable damage boost when you need it, even if they'll both be far from perma for the time being.
There are several good Crab build threads from the past week or two that should still be on the first page of this forum (sorry, too lazy to copy the hyperlinks while on my iPad right now). You should be able to pull some good suggestions as to where to go with your Crab.
As for what you're looking for in a Crab, defense soft cap is pretty easy to get close to but can challenging to actually hit, depending mostly on enhancement set bonuses for that last bit. Attack chains aren't too much of a worry once you get toward level 50 and have plenty of sockets with which to work.
As for your other wants, for tanking, take a look at Trilby's thread. She has an excellent build posted. Perma-Serum (and perma anything for that matter) basically requires Hasten. Super Jump shouldn't be an issue, since you'll most likely have Combat Jumping for your defense cap. Arachnos team buffs are pretty cheap; it's the Leadership ones that start to tax your Endurance. Mostly depends on the rest of your build if you can fit them in. Melee is mostly a personal preference.
Post your build and we can give you some feedback.
Ok this is my first build using mids so be kind. Advice is greatly welcomed.

Some of your build has needless/useless slotting. For example, 5 slots of Mako's gives you nothing, and if you are willing to drop cash on purples, might as well get a heca in there for damage/recharge.
Also, as a tank, the pets are pretty useful for absorbing alphas and helping stuff die faster. I tend to use provoke more often to save pets than team mates, and I do solo a lot, so provoke is pretty useful. However, you can do well without provoke, and taking a double manuevers and assualt. Something to keep in mind.
Any questions, shoot.
Love~ Lea the Spider Girl.

Thank you guys for the help.
I have questions about the smash/lethal defense on that build Trilby. It seems like that is kind of low how bad will that effect my of all ability. If I replaced Aim(and maybe slice) with Leadership maneuvers. I probably have to lose provoke also. Would I still be able to tank?

personally i wouldnt bother with the presence pool and focus more on dmg output
Would there be any way to team tank with crab and no pets or is just tanking on a crab not worth it.
|
if you can stay live with aggro on you then your doing fine, but i would focus more on dmg and rech after self sustainability
I don't agree with necro. A crab is so much more.
Pets are just helpful for tanking. One, they are a source of a lot of DPS. Two, they have holds, imbolizes and defence debuffs. Three, they can act as distractions.
I'll talk to you in game about this, give some advice.
i never said anything about skipping pets, heck i prefer to have as many pets as possible lol
in the crab that im working on i plan on making him a pseudo mm (3 spiderlings + 2 disruptors + 1 blaster from the scorp pool)
i havent finalized a build for him yet though
Well, if you want me to look over it, I'm open for that.

I do have a build that uses the 3 spiderlings, 2 disruptors, and the 1 blaster from Scorp. However, it is perma hasten/perma all pets built. The average defense on it is about 30.3% and 39.3% ranged defense. Smash and Lethal resistance is about 30.3% as well. The build performs nicely. However, I might make a revision by adding in the Superior set of Spider's Bite in Venom Grenade and getting rid of my set of Positron's Blast, but I'll have to wait and see what benefits me more. The only thing you'll have to closely monitor is your pets. You'll have to pay attention when they die and when they refresh in your power tray. Why? Well, if all of your pets aren't dead, when you summon them again, it'll be a wasted summon. Believe me, nothing sucks worse than having to wait for your main damage dealers to come up. I also play with the Arachnos Core T4 pets. Having a Toxic Tarantula and Bane Spider to my league of 6 spiders is really nice. Anyways, I'll post 3 builds that I've done and you can look at them and see what you like best. NOTICE: ALL BUILDS HAVE +1 ENHANCEMENTS BOOSTERS USED UP TO 5 TIMES FOR ALL IOS THAT WILL ALLOW FOR IT. I like to build for even or close to even recovery and regen numbers. All of the pets have really nice accuracy and damage numbers as well.

I have a few questions about SoA and Crab builds. I have a lvl 32 crab at the moment and love him. I am starting to notice that he as a lower dmg output then other AT at my lvl but I can survive a lot long and a lot easier without stopping. Right now I am still trying to figure out what I want to do with him.
Stuff I want for the toon is def softcap, easy attack chain both AoE and ST. Also thinks I would like but its not important is being able to tank, perma-Serum,Super Jump,and a lot of team buffing without killing my endurance. Wouldn't mind some Melee ability.
I know i am still pretty far away from 50 but i have little xp with SoA's and really confused about what they can and cant do.
PS. Sorry my grammar sucks.
