Electrical Affinity/Electrical Blast

New to build making, any thoughts/suggestions 

terae volta - Defender (Electrical Affinity).mxdFetching info...

Looking good.  I wonder if I would mourn the loss of lightning bolt.  If you want more recharge you could take the damage enhancements out of the purple sets since you will be hitting ED caps for damage without them and move one to Hasten, one to empowering, could always move the panacea proc to health and go with Spiritual alpha to get more healing and recharge.  I dunno, just thinking out loud.

 

EDIT:  Nemu brought attention to the numbers without Vengeance running

What hero planner are you using?  I tried updating Mids and it still doesn't have Elec Affinity....or did it update a day or two ago?

this link, u need to use the mids reborn and then follow the instructions to download the zip for the update and place it in the mids reborn folder then it works

Turn off vengeance and your S/L defenses is at 31 and the others much lower.

 

I'm not sold on dropping lightning bolt, it does a heck of a lot more damage than charged bolts.

 

Tesla cage is a good basilisk gaze mule and you can use it for hami and lgtfs against green mitos. It's a lot more useful than volt sentinel but both have their uses.

 

Short circuit is the best drain you can have and will help you neuter enemies quickly. You probably skipped it because you are shy about going into melee, the build below fixes that. But if you don't want to take SC you can swap it out with Voltaic sentinel, and save 2 end mod slots to put somewhere else.

To those who are playing:  do you actually end up using Shock all the time?

 

EDIT:  good catch on that Vengeance issue - yeah that's no good.  I totally missed it was active.

Not all the time, but usually against bosses and definitely against AVs.  Keeping their end/recovery floored is essential to shutting them down.  As long as they have 1 point of End, they can attack, so I feel like I gotta keep their blue bar flattened.

 

[JayboH]

Well, even if you don't, they are still damage debuffed.  I kind of wish damage debuffing had a more noticeable graphical effect.  That would help other sets like kin melee and kin and trick arrow and so on.

Making Shock worthwhile generally requires a fair bit of -resist. However, if you've got the -resist to back it up, you can do some impressive things.
