Electric / SD

[Lockpick]

I tend to come to the scrapper forum for my melee advice, so was hoping for some input.  I want to create a new character that is going to Electric / SD, but I wanted to check on which AT I should make (Scrapper, Stalker, Tank, etc.).  Anyone have any thoughts?

 

I used to play Scrappers on Live, but on HC I think I have only leveled one to 50.  I like Stalkers and have a couple at 50.  I have never played a Tank, so have been curious about the Tank changes.  I have only played on Brute to 50, but he is a spines/fire only used for farming.

 

Any help on pros/cons would be appreciated.

Here is my Elec/SD Scrapper build.  Tons of fun.  Not much left standing after all my AoE's are fired off.  lol

With the Tanker changes it could be interesting, but I don’t know the details on how the various powers in this combo were impacted. 
 

I’d go Stalker first since it still has respectable single target damage, the single target is rough on a Scrapper. While the two nukes don’t crit, they also don’t break hide on Stalkers. Second I’d go Scrapper since the two nukes are significantly better on them than Brutes because of the way pseudo pets function with fury. 
 

My first 50 on HC is an Elec/SD Scrapper and she’s a ton of fun to play. My eventual plan is to retire her for good and reroll as a Stalker.
