New to CoH and trying to make a scrapper. After some talk on discord, I decided upon a claws/ dark armor scrapper...

I downloaded the planner, and have come up with what I want for skills. That being said, I know nothing about sets or what IO's are, so I have no clue where to go from here. Any advice would be appreciated...

This is how I probably would do it, decent HP once accoladed, decent resistances, especially after Cardiac Core Paragon in Alpha slot  which I am afraid it is a must otherwise the endurance is going to be unmanageable without micro-managing toggles. Decent recharge without Hasten (I usually never take it on DA chars for concept reasons), but you should be able to double stack Follow Up after strike or swipe and softcapped to S/L def which makes your scrapper almost unkillable. Not too much dmg mitigatin besides Oppressive Gloom and Cloak of Fear but the added AoE goodness of Fire Ball should be noticeable in killing speed. I removed Shockwave because it is not a good idea to KB your enemies away from your Dark Regeneration radius, bear in mind it is a heal that the more foes hits, the higher is the HP you receive from it. Had to use ring of Fire as a mule for extra S/L def to get to softcap. Could have allocated a few in Weave and activate it instead but this way keeps your end consumption much lower and the 3.75% +rchg is always handy. I would keep the Kismet to help the reduced acc of Cloak of Fear but maybe you prefer removing it and use the slot for extra res in Murky Cloud but I don't think it would be as noticeable as the extra ToHit you get from the Kismet.

 

If you are dead set on Claws, that's what I would do, it will be damn expensive though. Mi advice would be to use a primary with better mitigation such as axe, mace, ice or dark melee.

Overwhelming force has one, it's the universal damage set that's a reward from summer blockbuster. I forget the name of the KB set that has the other. I'm on mobile so can't really check and it's not in pine's either.

I remembered, it's sudden acceleration. But a six slotted overwhelming force will get you an extra 4 KB protection which is nice for dark.

Just put a knockback to knockdown io in shockwave rather than removing it.

 

what skill would you replace to put shockwave back into the build?

you don't need all of the first three single targets. lose which ever is your least favorite. i didn't really look in depth at the build, though. i'm too busy playing to even make my own builds these days :D

My mistake, totally forgot about the KB to KD IO. In any case, you will not need Strike for a good ST attack chain. Follow Up, Slash, Swipe and Focus are plenty for that so you can skip Strike at the beginning, move your power choices a bit and make room for Showckwave at lvl 32. Strike is interesting at early levels when underslotted but totally skippable afterwards since Swipe will give you a better DPS
