TYVM! I love Stalagmites. Always open with it. Though this is VERY helpful since this is my first ever /Cold troller.

I completed the Claws/SR build yesterday. It's pretty fun but for me it's a lot of button pressing where as with EM I can 2-shot +4 bosses. Though this is a personal preference and I do have minor carpel tunnel. I found SR to be very fun and feels more tanky than SD. Though I DID end up on a team where teammates buffs took me to 100%+ AOE, Ranged and Melee defenses. The way how you can keep bosses on their backs with Claws is amazing.

Interesting...are there any builds floating around the forums for Earth/Cold?

Trying to find your build. Still searching.

Just did a search and found Bill Z's build. I think EM/SD has set the bar for me on Scrappers but think I will roll a Claws/SR. Haven't tried either, so why not?

Nice! Claws/SR...sounds like a very survivable combo.

Really leaning towards SR. Never tried it before, but I do have a SD scrapper with 45%+ AOE, Ranged, and Melee defenses. So I'm wondering if it would play much different than SD?

Yes, SR seemed like one option from reading the description. Looks like DM works well with it. Which holes does WP have?

I've never tried it, but it's one of the options I'm considering. No KB protection on that one, right? Any other holes?

So I'm looking for suggestions on which Scrapper secondary hole is the easiest to fill. For example, some armors don't offer def/res against psi dmg and so on. If possible, I'd like to roll one with no holes.

Rolled one. My newest hobby: KB'ing baddies right to heroes idling around at Portal Corp in PI.

That's good news then. I am still learning the whole positioning thing. From what I've read here on the forums on Poison, I definitely want to roll it on a Defender. Just not sure which secondary yet.

Sounds like a fun powerset. Though I imagine you'd need a very good/expensive build for end game content given you'd have to get in the middle of mobs to cast powers.

Interesting. Could you elaborate more on this please?

Just rolled one...wow! Combat log: You hit Jack in Irons with your Energy Transfer (Focused) for 2879.46 points of Energy damage. You hit Jack in Irons with your Energy Transfer (Focused) for 806.24 points of Energy damage [CRITICAL].

Anyone have a good Ice/SD/Fire build that caps defs? I'm finding ice melee to be a horrible set. The only decent power is Frozen Touch. GIS does poor dmg as well as IS.

Hello, I don't normally play Defenders though I am looking to roll one for end game content. I am not looking to roll an active powerset. Looking to roll more of a laid back play style toon that's still useful during end game content such as TFs and trials. Any suggestions/builds anyone can post? Thanks in advance.

I am about to go get in trouble with this build. LOL

Could you please post the build? How does it do in end game content? ITF and such.

Title says it all. I don't see many Ice Melee Scrappys running around. To those of you who have Ice/x builds that are sufficient at end game content, please suggest some ideas. Thanks!

TYVM! Yeah, I was pretty overwhelmed at what/how to slot on this one! Regarding Tin/Pex, you're saying in a half hour, I can make 18 mil? Drops?

Any thoughts on the build below? I tried to make it not expensive and max defenses. Yes, I know there is no travel power :/ https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1347&c=631&a=1262&f=HEX&dc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

Depends on the reason. I want to do it just because it's different and I love scrappers. If I want to farm for speed and efficiency, I have two Brutes for that.

Okay, so I know Brute is the go to farming AT, but I just LOVE seeing tons of crits pop up. That being said, does anyone have any suggestions for scrapper farming combos? I would think for secondaries, powersets with taunt aura would be ideal?

Is there a build somewhere for this?
