Need a good Medium Priced Kat/ElecA Build Please

Howdy Folks,

I am building a Katana/Electric Armor scrapper. I am level 38, and trying to figure this build out, since I am not used to a focus on resists.

Anyone have a good, robust build they can post?

I'm looking for everything... all the way to 50, and some of the incarnate choices as well.

Not sure if this is medium, but it uses only one PvP IO and no purples, so it's definitely not extreme. It's also not quite a finished build but should be more than enough to work with.

Cool, thank you Jack_NoMind!

I notice that you took Soul Mastery and Shadow Meld. Is that a requirement for the build? I don't have Soul Mastery, and was considering Body Mastery.

If I do need SM, is that I need to go rogue and then back to hero to get it? I have always been a hero...

You can use Body Mastery just fine; I included Soul Mastery only because it offers a nice power for resistance-based Scrappers. Adjust the build as you like.

I think you can get Patron pools as either a Rogue or Villain. I personally like Ghost Widow's arc, but Scirocco's arc is actually a bit heroic, at least until you betray him.

Just messing around with the sets I think getting shadow meld down to 25 second recharge with resistances into the 50s would be a decent way to go.

I literally tossed out a quick build just by looking at the numbers in the totals tab to guide me and was able to go in that direction.

I am positive if you spend a few hours working it you could get something much tighter.

Going into a fight for the first 15 seconds defense capped and 50 resistance is not bad. You will be killing off pretty much all the minions so you will be left with bosses. I'm sure a scrapper running 4/8 could handle the 2 or 3 bosses remaining from the pull of a few groups.

Plus every 10 seconds shadow meld is back up and on top of this energize could be perma probably as well. So you could be at least perma on the regeneration.

Alpha incarnate wise going resilient will help kick up your resistance numbers if you needed to.
