    Looking for a plant/thorn soloing build

    So by merit farmer you mean farming TFs? Or just running Orro arcs?

     

    I personally have not been to big of a fan of throns as a secondary. Its ok, and i get if a theme is important. But i have a Plant/earth Domintor. Obviously is a perma-dom and he can solo just about anything i have put him up against in the past. I have never really pushed him against AVs and such solo in TFs, but i can mostly solo +4/8 mission content with him pretty easily. 

    Ouro arcs I think

    I'm not sure. But I did attach the file separately for download as well which hopefully works.

    Out of curiosity, why infiltration instead of stealth?

    You shouldn't have issues with the x8 spawns. I can do them pretty smoothly at +2x8 and sketchily at +3x8. /psi is pretty monstrous when you give it a bit of breathing room, which ice can do.

     

    The issue will be the AV.  Earth is the only dominator primary with an answer. With stoney  tanking AVs are much more approachable.

     

    That said, Clamor is so low level that drain psyche completely stops her regen at +2 and lower, so you could in theory try to fight her only when the triangles go down. 

     

    It's a fun TF so I say go for it

     

     

    So is Frosty that much less tanky?  also I notice u take the ranged powers from psy whereas I tend to take the melee. is that more preference or is it important?

    They gave us an earth blast set, where's my crossbow blast set?

    the ammo typed ones in particular kind of look like tracer rounds, which could be confused for small bolts, kupo.

     

    i wish we had a 'no weapon option' with emit point from the hand, so things like using the prism costume of the rikti with the arm rifle would work. as is, any wrapon juts out clipped from an arm that otherise is a perfectly functional beam rifle / ar, or even a bow - were the emit point to be the hand where the gun attaches.

     

    anyhow, hand crossbow things, that might work well.

     

    a power set for crossbows would be also v nice, perhaps with a long reload skill thats like build up but gives ammo charges that do stuff. a shoulder bash (dark souls 3 most crossbow L2), and puncturing shots, spluter ammo (bleed), and a bear trap. 🐻

    Rifle animations could probably work for 2-handed crossbows

    So this is what I am currently doing mostly putting slots with the idea to eventually help bop things in fire farms with an ice/psi dom.  here's the export on the slotting at the moment to lvl 26.  am I on the right track for this?

    Electric is fine though. I'm currently leveling an Elec/Rad and soloed Posi 1 and 2 at +0x3. It was a pleasure to destroy the Vhaz AV without a problem compared to my unfortunate Dark/Bio that used multiple Recovery Serums and whittled the AV very very slowly until running out of inspirations.

     

     

    I tried to put an Elec/Energy build together for you. It's a bit cobbled but it should work. You will have the soft cap for defense, a heal, an endurance recovery clickie, decent resistances and an obscene amount of recharge (Hasten at 118 without the build having FF procs), and a very easy/fast and early blooming rotation of Tasla Cage, Charged Bolts, Zapping Bolt, Charged Bolts, repeat.

     

    The powers are somewhat in order but there are so many important or useful things that it's difficult to choose what to pick first while leveling. The slots are rearranged by Mids and not to be taken as gospel.

    This is an end-game(expensive build. If you feel you'd like a leveling build let me know.

    I been waiting for that link to work but i guess it's not going to

    I'm sorry for your loss.

     

     

    So you really haven't clearly stated what the issue are beside running with a steamrolling team that doesn't clean it's plate before moving on to the next course.

    Other than bad teammates, what appears to be the issue?

     

    Sentinels are a balance between damage and defense but  you have to keep your distance.

    Is the issue more running out of end or not being able to defend yourself before the enemy is defeated?

    In the past until I get my head around building historically I have bad instincts.  Like I will take every power because it will sound useful until I learn what ones not to take.  Currently at 26 I don't have the end and teams tend to say forget the ambush in posi 1 for instance.  In the past teams will do speed TFs and until I learn what I am doing on those or getting lost on mission teams at teams skipping packs.  My instinct is to kill everything and I can only see part of the screen at a time so I can get into trouble fast before I know I am in trouble.  I didn't pick electric for numbers I picked it for a theme.  That theme includes the arcane tree.  An arcane witch with lightning spells and arcane spells.  Energy aura is basically mage armor or magic shields etc.

    I'm curious if you mean "I don't want to use end drain at all," or if you mean "I don't want to expressly build for end drain."

     

    If the former, you should choose another primary. Elec drains, yo, it makes you an end drainer, and the set gets bonus damage off of drained targets. 

     

    If the latter, don't fear, build for damage and the set will drain mobs enough for the bonus damage and mitigation on its own. Using an epic aoe immob is a great tactic, but not the only choice that works. And there is every reason to choose Musculature Radial Alpha, for better damage and faster draining. 

     

    Elec/ Ea was the first and only sent i took to 50, it's very lightly built, and even so all the parts fit together so well. I should complete that toon someday. 

    As in I don't want to slot for end drain, it's automatic but other ATs are FAR better suited to be end drainers as a focus.

    Ok so I have been gone for a years now, was tryin to get my best friend to come back to the game with me but he passed on the 8th this month.  He was iffy about playing the game because of the legality of the servers so he never did pick it back up with me.  Well, I made a sentinel el/Energy with the theme of a witch.  got my flight through the sorcery pool and I like the idea of using its attack power as well.  It fits thematically but I am level 18 now which means I need to start thinking of something to start aiming for build-wise.  I looked at all my old characters and kept the concepts I really liked and all the lvl 50's but I forgot a lot so I want the new toons I make to re-learn the game.  I have 2 mage-concepts going but I like Eldritch Shock the best.  I want to make her usable as a self-sufficient nuker as I have not gotten used to moving with the team since being back and I know that is a habit that develops slowly in me because of my vision issues.  So when the team moves past a pack and I stay and fight it I want to live long enough to either kill it or realize I screwed up and move on

    Shield Proliferation? what would you make with it?

    Well, assuming that Against All Odds and it's +Dmg is proliferated;  I would think that Fire would be a natural choice.

    Then, I thought about the synergy of -ToHit with Shields +Def; so, I thought Dark would be fun.

    Then, I thought about how Shield Charge is pulling you to the center of Melee; so, sets with PBAoEs (like Electricity's Short Circuit or Radiation's Irradiate and Atomic Blast) would be fun.

    But what are your concepts for those set combos.  With the elemental shields you can make your shield look like it was composed of electricity.  Sounds like a good concept for a mutant electric eel.

    So, funny thing here.  Always the red shirt jokes about trek however, while the red-shirts tended to have the most dramatic deaths, when folks went through the episodes gold shirts had the most numerical on-screen deaths.  TBF even in ToS red was the security officer color so it makes sense their deaths be more action-focused.

    water/cold soloist

    in Corruptor

    Aid Self is a pretty bad power IMO.  More of a downtime reducer than an in-combat heal.  Given that you already have a heal in Water/ I wouldn't bother.  Instead I'd probably build for some ranged defense and maybe take hover if that would fit your character.  That's just me though.  /Cold has precious little to offer in the way of self-defense.  It's more of a great team buff set, so making a soloist out of it is kind of taking a harder road.

     

    You could build on the defense and resists in Arctic Fog by taking the Fighting pool.  Add in a good epic shield and you can get some strong resists going to common damage types.  With ranged defense on top you'd be pretty durable, with the usual caveat that a single mez can shut most of that down.

    More using it as a mule set for the debuffs (and theme) but as I said I am looking at grabbing the resist buff from the secondary and try to get it perma or close to it.  The cold debuffs are effective thus far at keeping me +0/2 viable at level 16.  Darknir your build here is not what I am attempting to accomplish but thanks.
