I would recommend looking through this thread. I have videos of Necro/Dark soloing pretty much any +4/x8 content, how to run in high level group content, etc.

 

 

 

@Nexros I can't get your build file from that thread to open; do you mind reuploading it?

Reserved, uploading new build shortly.

Having played in game and leveling up more, I'm finding a pretty big disconnect between the extreme distances psychic offers, and the melee of martial (specifically, that burst, dragon's tail, and eagle claw are underwhelming). I am leaning towards taking those out, though this has a noticeable impact on my defense (specifically smashing/lethal and fire/cold). However, I could add in will domination to bump things up ever so slightly, and add a fly-hover LOTG package to bump up the ol' recharge a little. However I defer to anyone who knows what they're talking about!

Howdy friends. This is my first build attempt at a blaster, much less this pairing. There's a weird choice of throw sand, which I don't think is that popular, but is a thematic must for my character. The slotting, however, was me trying to make the best out of a knowingly bad power pick (I'm a slave to theme, what can I say). Anyway, any feed back would be appreciated!

Your faith in what exactly?   The AT, power set, soloing ability, team recognition?

Empathy as a power set. It was my first main/50 in the olden days (I really like cleric classes, generally), so I'll never truly be able to leave it behind, but it just feels like I'm a relic of a bygone era. Obviously other defender power sets are obviously going to be better for soloing than the flagship team oriented support set; notwithstanding that fact, in a world packed with fully funded characters, the game feels different. Instead of teams becoming a sum greater than the parts, it's more along the lines of having 8 great solo'ers with some incidental composition/interaction, if that makes any sense. Within that lens I felt lackluster, and my faith waned.

As an emp whose faith is failing daily....do you mind posting a build?
