I moved away from Power Sink once I decided I was going with a build that wasn't based around sapping. I shouldn't need the +end with the amount of recovery I have from set bonuses paired with Defensive Opportunity. I felt as though PS could be thrown out for better options.

I must preface this post by stating that I am no good at making my own builds. This elec^3 build was crafted using bits and pieces of other builds I found on the forums. The original goal was to create a sapper build, but I've since shifted my focus to being a hover tank that is able to dish out respectable damage. I am looking to min max this build and be able to solo +4/x8 content, if possible. Any feedback / advice / critiques are appreciated.

Thank you so much for this detailed write up! As a side note, I love your district 9 adaptation for your bio! Very clever! Do you possibly have a build you could post for your beam/Bio?

Has anyone provided a breakdown for Bio Armor yet or has the knowledge to do so in the near future? This set is completely lost on me and I’m trying to determine where exactly it shines (and maybe falters) compared to other sets. I’ve been looking for a set to pair with BR and Bio is what I fell on. Also I know it’s been mentioned a ton but I have to reiterate that this thread is extremely helpful and informative. I had given up on Beam Rifle prior to reading Sunsette’s guide. After reading and learning quite a few new tricks, rotations, etc. I have picked the set up again and am having a blast. Looking forward to more content in here!

Looking at building an Ice/Radiation Melee tanker - seems like it has some good synergy such as icicles + irradiated ground + atom smasher. Would love to be an aggro holding machine. Anyone played this build to a high level / have any thoughts on whether these two powersets would pair well?

@Redlynne, I have been highly considering rolling an Ice/Ice tanker solely because of your build and the play style you have mentioned for it. The only thing holding me back is the alternative choice of Ice/Rad that sounds just as enticing with the pairing of Irradiated Ground + Icicles and a few more AoEs from Radiation Melee to pair with it. How do you think Ice/Rad would compare with Ice/Ice in terms of holding aggro and dishing out a surprising amount of DPS/Debuffs for a tank? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Still looking for help with this if there are any build gurus out there!

Looking for critiques, suggestions or help on a team oriented build for my Ice/Ice Scrapper; want him to serve as an off tank/support/dps taking advantage of ice’s slows, holds, -recharges, etc. No budget. Bring on those purple and winter sets.
