Not really. Recharge is higher enough that I always have an attack up. Biggest issues is my defences suck. I’d really like some help in slotting for additional defence.

bump... any constructive advice appreciated :)

Below is my first pass at a build sheet for my blaster, who is currently level 45. My goals for this build are: - lots of recharge, so I'm always up and ready to blast - reasonable def + resistance, so i don't die every fight - control over blapping. I love the holds (and their debuffs and want to avoid melee) - contribute to AV fights, so a nice debuff (hence Melt Armour) In my playing so far, I love bonfire, and slotted with Overwhelming Force KB-->KD it's great soft control, so I can pew pew pew while they fall over. I'd also like to get instant cast on Blaze 100%. It's awesome when that's up. I've no idea if I've picked the right / best IO's and would like feedback and suggestions please.
