Elec^3 Build - Looking for Advice/Feedback

[jonwol2]

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.

It looks like a fun combo!  I have a couple sappers with ice armor and energy armor an they are really fun.  I hate to say it but I really like the defense in EA over any other possibility for sapping but I have no idea how that will play out at +4. I am hovering at low thirties without spending a ton on IO's.

 

I would try to work in the lighting field power to help keep the at zero endurance and maybe I am missing it but are you missing power sink?  On my electric/EA its the four powers lighting ball, short circuit, energy drain and thunderous power that let me sap groups of mobs of endurance and its the first three that are my mainstays.  I think power sink has to be in there.

[jonwol2]

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'm dumb, reading is fundamental, sorry about that.  Just really enthused over sentinels and sapping at the moment.

 

I am not in love with electric blast for damage or sentinel damage levels overall at the moment.  I would argue against trying to beef up a purely resist set simply because of the 75% cap we get.  You will need some form of secondary mitigation and with this combo that kind of has to be sapping or defense. I hate the medicine pool on a resistance based armor set.

 

Maybe work in maneuvers and swap epics to psychic so you can add mind link for a bit more defense?  The aoe sleep in psychic is kind of sneaky powerful for breaking up the alpha or controlling adds.

[Bionic_Flea]

I moved some stuff around on your build.  As I mentioned in game, you had afterburner turned on, which is giving you higher defense than you would have in active combat.  I turned it off, so if comparing, make sure both are off (or both on) for proper comparison.
