Hi all! I just leveled a Psi/Shield Scrapper. I was curious what your incarnate suggestions would be, since I am sucking wind! The ones I’m looking at: Cardiac: Would seem to solve end issues, as well as bump resists a bit. The range buff is lost on it a bit. Frees up the chance to take Rebirth as well for a heal. Cardiac probably would reduce my endurance woes the most. Vigor Core: Could help with end and the accuracy it provides. Better accuracy = landing more hits = doing more damage. Heal portion only helps a bit, but once again can open up option for rebirth. Musculature Radial: Biggest damage boost. This would probably force me into taking Ageless, which has me lose out on a heal. But… MOAR DMG. What are your thoughts/suggestions?

+1. My first 50 was a Shield/Elec based off of Inf’s build. While there may be more optimal pairings, Shield/Elec might be the most “fun per click” in the game.

Currently leveling this combo on a scrapper. Shield charge + Mass levitate = good times.

So I just started slow leveling @Werner’s Shield/MA build…. Even at low levels, it feels exceptionally tough. I feel it’ll be great for incarnate stuff.

Random follow up: what primaries do you feel are best at generating fury? I assume quick animating sets like: Dual Blades, Katana, Claws, Savage Melee.

You always make it sound good Inf 😂 what are some of your favorite primaries to pair with Elec Armor?

Fire/Elec truly seems like a God of Chaos kind of build 😂

THE BEARDED KING HAS RETURNED.

The Bartman Hyperstrikes Again. Thanks!!!

Got this, but for MA/Elec? 😂

I’m thinking an MA/Electric Brute could be a good time.

Only! What are some ideal combos you’d have for MA? I know Werner did some crazy things with a Shield/MA Tanker. @Sovera likes Fire/MA. A MA/Elec brute would seem promising. Any others you like?

You Legend 😂 I’ve narrowed it down to Kat/Rad or Kat/EnA. Both seem very synergistic. EnA can basically be “Force Shields”, has an invis and brings a heal (Force healing) which is nice. Rad can be colored to look like Force Aura, and it’s 2 AOE’s that can act as Force “powers.” It’s T9 Meltdown is also kind of like Battlemind, if anyone is familiar with that power from SW lore.

DB/EnA is actually one of the ways I'm leaning. The free recharge from EnA fits nicely. I'm guessing the "invis" power from Energy Aura drops once in combat? Not the stats I mean, but the invisibility part?

I love all these. Energy Aura and SR are both front runners, probably with WP and Bio. All IO'd out endgame, which do you think is the strongest?

Someone also mentioned Elec Armor for a Brute mixed with Katana. Could be good. Kat seems better on a Scrapper though, and Elec Armor better on a Brute.

Agreed! The best option might be the Mu Patron for Zapp/Ball Lightning

Hi all! I’m going to role play a Jedi hero with some buddies of mine, and I’d love to pick the communities brains on options for a Jedi hero! First up: ARCHETYPE My immediate thought is Scrapper. Jedi’s just feel like Scrappers to me. Stalkers could be an option, I just don’t care for hiding. Anyone feel that they should be a Brute or Tanker instead? Second: KATANA OR DUAL BLADES I understand that Jedi could use either (too bad they don’t have an option for this on Staff!) as many Jedi used different styles. In your opinion though, which set FEELS more like a Jedi based on their animations/powers? Lastly: SECONDARY This is where it gets spicy, since one could argue a lot of options. Bio Armor and Rad Armor both have a ton of effects, but with the right colorization and minimal effects, they can definitely be pulled off as Force powers. Stone Armor… love the set, but I feel that even with minimal effects it may stand out too much. Energy Aura is a Scrapper favorite, and could just be “Force Energy.” I don’t particularly care for how one of the powers basically makes you invisible though, although it could be thematic for a Jedi. Willpower and Super Reflexes both have minimal effects and can be very thematic of Jedi. How do either of these perform for endgame content? Willpower can be using the Force to push through, while we all know Jedi have great reflexes haha. Ninjitsu is a lovely set… I just have one buddy who runs a Kat/Nin and another DB/Nin, so I’m just trying to not repeat. All that being said: what are your thoughts? How would YOU make a Jedi hero? Also, I’m pumped for the Kenobi series coming at the end of May 😂

I’m sorry if anyone made you feel that way Switch. I for one really appreciate the knowledge shares on the forums and I know yours must have been great to start this thread!

I wonder why? Lol

I appreciate you, thanks!

Is there a bind for Combat Teleport you guys can share? I’ve never used it, but I’m guessing it just zips you around the fight? Haha

I think I have a good idea of how I want to slot Katana. Anyone have a sample of how they slot Stone Armor? My goal is to get as much close to softcap as possible. I know you can’t really with F/C, but for that I can hit 75% resist.

This combo seems like it a ton of busy fun haha

All good call outs. I’m gonna have to play with the build a lot haha. I don’t have Mids right now, so it’s a lot of trial and error.
