@roleki Easily the best answer I could have gotten. Thank you! I'll build both and play as I feel.

Not Knockback...Knockdown (KD)

Had a debate with another blaster while on a team today on "Why didn't you choose Fire/Nrg instead?" I'm leveling an Nrg/Nrg (46 now) and having a ton of fun with the concept, and I actually had designs on building a Fire/Nrg next when this one is kitted out. Just wondering what everyones opinions are on which one over the other and why you may think that way. Food for thought: I do have a buddy who has a Fire/Fire blaster that he's slotted KD for most of his attacks on. If the tactic is to KD them and kill them on both toons, is the Fire Blaster a better choice then?

This is an older post I found, but I'm not married to Soul Mastery

Are you and Sovera using the same build Bill?

Well, this thread blew up a bit lol. I do have these to 50 and slotted/incarnated already : Claws/WP Claws/EA Claws/SR And I played a Claw/Invuln on Live. After reading this I decided to try a Claws/Bio to see what the fuss was all about. Hit 20 last night and about to log on for a bit and see what kind of trouble I can get into. Thanks to everyone for getting involved and keeping the discussion lively!

I made a WM/Shield which I loved for concept, and now it's time to try Shield again I think, but I want to know if I'm just going for pure damage, should I do Broadsword/Shield, Axe/Shield, or stick with War Mace/Shield? Thanks for the discussion!

Well Sir, I was on the Fire/Fire/FAPPAGE until I loaded up this absolute disgrace. You pick up the flag, and I'll follow.

So I just started to fiddle with this 2 nights ago. Holy shit! How do you not FAP every night after you play this thing?

Actually, after getting 5this to level 20 and playing with it for a bit. I may have answered my own question. The control I have on my burst damage seems to be astounding.

I'm curious on this Shinobi. Why Stalker and not Scrapper?

Do you have a build handy? Mine is older and I'd love to see your plan.

If it's me, from my first post: Going for a high damage solo/team build here.

You are so right. Should this thing be 6 slotted?
