I’ve got a build I can share tomorrow assuming I remember. It’s an homage to Rambo though so not the most ideal power pool choices. It’s really fun.

The only person ever to say brute atos are better than tanks. Plus resist on sr tank is super handy.

Ummm….zero? This a trick question?

Setting up water jet is as simple as counting to three. It even has a circle that shows up on the power when it is ready to roll. It's super simple setting up. And it is a great attack, especially on a corrupter when it can scourge twice in a row really quickly.

Yeah I was thinking of wrong name. I still wouldn't skip it though. It boosts the -damage and +damage of tidal pool. I guess if you do have to skip something it is probably it though. I'd still lose a ST attack or something. I currently have epic pet but it sucks on defender I think.

Energy has a taunt aura on a scrap?

One runner confront is ideal for. Also having one ranged attack helps. A lot of armors have taunt auras as well not all do though. confront comes in super hand on ITFs when there isn’t a tank or brute. Or there is a tank or brute but they don’t take taunt themselves and just play like a scrap the whole time. confront is great. I don’t have it on all my scrappers. But it’s good when you have more powers than slots.

Combo pretty fun? Going back and forth between this and ss/sr. I have a shit ton of sr toons already so trying bio. He is all of lvl 4 atm.

sentinels don’t have snipes.

leviathan I think. On phone not in game. My dp/sr has it. It’s awesome.

Sentinels get KO Blow and scraps don’t. And Scraps get snipes but sents dont. ?????

Rage crash on a scrap would suck. Especially when trying to kill nictus things on hard mode ITFs.

I was talking about musculature alpha not the assault hybrid.

Pretty sure damage boost from musculature and damage boost from kinetics or others are separate.

I would never skip water jet. It is awesome. Can use it twice back to back.

Both mids and in game in powers says it does. Haven't tried tracking on an enemy but assume it does.

I would take the heal/debuff for sure. No expert on marine. Mine is vet 3. Just respec'd to this. I didn't go all proccy but went for high defense and resistance as well as perma power of the depths, or really close to it. Captain Thrax - Defender (Marine Affinity - Psychic Blast).mbd

Think you forgot to post your build. Do you not use mids?

I lied. It’s ec-sk-cs-sk doesnt have any recharge in ec so the ato procs as much as it literally possibly can. Perma hasten build also ensures focus chi is up more often as well.

Cool man. I personally hate CAK which is why I don’t take it. I like ec-sk-cs which stacks stuns and both crit after ec which I slot so it’s almost guaranteed to prof the scrap ato.

Db/sr is a ton of fun. I have a claws/sr as well but I prefer claws/rad. I wouldn’t touch regen. I always go assault hybrid on scraps. Rebirth comes in handy but you’ll use it to heal teammates more than yourself, which is fine.

Banished pantheon or long bow is what I pick u less it’s theme related.

I'm well aware. They get the same animation as the snipe, just not the long cast version, as said above...

what you recommend? I’ve tried it on all but a sentinel. Might try it next. I love the snipe’s animation. Which sent still had just the fast cast only.

Seems super fun. Can’t wait. Nature is my only defender and I love it. Seems like a somewhat similar set. How can one have a trident with this on a defender? Temp power maybe?
