energy aura is an excellent choice, and the one i went with myself. max level you should expect to feel very sturdy and with 0 endurance problems. i have some modifications to make to my build, otherwise i’d share; nonetheless, there is an excellent savage/EA build somewhere on the stalker forum, i used it as inspiration. i went for as much recharge, resistance and endurance discount as possible. you’ll blow through your endurance very fast so recovery and endurance discounts are essential. don’t rely on the discount from savage.

i have! i was struggling to decide between fire/earth or plant/earth. on the test server i really struggled to get good endurance control with fire/earth and thought the double aura wasn’t worth the trouble. i decided on plant/earth/ice and loved it so much i spent much more on her build than normal. she’s the toon i like to play to make the game feel like easy mode. i didn’t really focus too much on procs because endurance reduction was more important in how i play. carrion creepers is fully proc’d, though...and it’s easily permanent too. i can spam my heavy hitters without really needing incarnates. i don’t care too much about soft capping defense/resistance, but i have no problems with survivability. needless to say, plant/earth is a freaking steamroller of a build. the combo of carrion creepers, seeds of confusion, and earth assault is absurdly strong

i think archery, dark blast, assault rifle, rad blast, elec blast and dual pistols all benefit greatly from scourge. lots of fast recharging DoT available to you in those sets.

Grav/Martial is actually quite a fun combo. When i built one on pineapple i played entirely from range because the melee attacks seemed kinda meh to me. i had all the ranged shuriken attacks, and the offensive gravity ones. it was plowing through +4 mobs.

it’s an excellent combo that has nice synergy going for it. i messes with Dark/Energy and Earth/Energy on the test server and am having a hard time deciding which i want to roll on live...thinking dark will win as i’ve played earth extensively. i think doms have the best form of energy assault, so long as you manage the knockback...which is why people probably avoid the set.

I have a savage/energy stalker, and now a fully IOd savage/bio brute, whom i like FAR better than the stalker. i have more then enough recharge and recovery/endurance discount baked into my brute that i can ignore the blood frenzy mechanic, unless i want to rending flurry @ 5 stacks, followed by a build up into fully proc’d savage leap, and another rending flurry @ 5 stacks. the damage is absurd. anyways, i don’t currently run my brute with hemorrhage, but instead cycle through T1, T2, and T5 and use rending flurry as a spender. i’m curious how useful it’d be dropping T1 for hemo. i know how crazy that power is on stalkers, but i’ve heard otherwise for brutes. is there a tooltip mistake?! (hoping!)

really just depends on how you enjoy playing. the troller is less fun in groups and more fun solo in my opinion. there isn’t enough time to get everyone buffed and make meaningful control options, because stuff will be dead that fast. drop a bonfire with KB->KD and jump in to fulcrum while your pets and team do the rest. i prefer it on corrupters as i can lead the group a little more. the difference on defenders is very small iirc, outside of getting fulcrum at 32. those that want the buffs are gonna need to jump in when i do cause after my alpha strike there isn’t much left for them to do. overall, you need pretty solid defenses and resists to survive in melee range, so keep that in mind, especially if you’re the first to jump in.

I've built this toon out of my love for sonic powers, and am LOVING playing her. I went for as much recharge as possible so I can enjoy Dreadful Wail as much as possible. I'm pretty sure I'm at perma hasten and perma Drain Psyche if I get a few force feedback's to proc. I took screech for fun, though I'm not too impressed with the power. I'm considering swapping from /mace to /ice for my epic pool. I want to keep 6 defensive powers to maintain 5 LotG bonus and a 6 slot of reactive defenses. I tend to play entirely in melee. Looking for other places I could improve. I don't feel I need more resists or defenses as I can nuke a spawn and nothing really survives for it to matter. On teams I softcap everything anyways.

Was messing around on the test server with this combo and found it to be incredibly powerful; I was soloing +4/8 with no difficulty, though without incarnates that's a different story. I'm not sure if the disorient in Stalagmites has some synergy with the energy release mechanic in energy assault, but if it does, Dark Control would also be a contender instead of earth. Anyways, I'm unsure if the recharge in this build is adequate, though I was able to get smash/lethal resists to 75%. Perhaps I should add in a few force feedbacks, considering how knockback heavy energy assault is. I'd love to hear others opinions on how to modify this build as I intend to roll it on live...once I farm the cash XD Villain Plan by Mids' Reborn : Hero Designer 2.6.0.7 https://github.com/ImaginaryDevelopment/imaginary-hero-designer Click this DataLink to open the build!

There seems to be little information on sentinel ice blast on this sub forum. does anyone have any experience with the set? In my quest to find a sentinel primary i enjoy, I think ice might be the one. Was the recharge on blizzard lowered? I’m hoping it’s something that could be up every mob, thus filling any aoe needs i might have. is it worth proccing out your main rotation? i know you can get crazy with procs in ice, but not sure if that’d be worth the loss in set bonuses. i’ll likely roll a ice/regen or ice/bio

Which do you think will fare better? I made quite an expensive build for Plant/Savage on test server and LOVED it. however, endurance consumption and management without incarnates was pretty terrible. I have an elec/psy at 50 that i enjoy playing and figured conducive aura would also work nicely to help offset endurance issues has anyone tried this combo and built out the toon? do you have any other pairings with /savage that thrive?

I fixed my issue by the above solution! Thanks for the help. ...I have encountered a new problem, though! I swapped out my monitor, and now when i attempt to run Tequilla, it immediately closes. there aren’t any error codes, it just closes the application

i’m running into the same issues as the poster above me! 32bit and safe mode run great. the errors are: “the code execution cannot proceed because MSVCP140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.” “the code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.”

I also play a DM/Ice scrapper who i’m having a blast with. i went Blaze Mastery for my epic pool to solve my AoE issues. I dropped Shadow Maul and have fire blast/ball as a regular part of my rotation. Char is also nice to have for the 4 slot basilisk

My freshly 50’d and IO’d to the gods DM/Ice Armor/Fire scrapper. she is a freaking BEAST, even without incarnates unlocked!! i was able to fill the psi hole in ice, and having icicles to use as a proc mule for Critical Strikes is excellent. one round of soul drain + fire ball is enough to kill the majority of the mobs i face. even dark consumption has turned into a small aoe nuke with procs as i don’t need it for endurance management. the crits are massive and sustain is better than i expected.
