Rad/Rad for build feedback

[Generator]

Hi there,

 

So in addition to the Beam/Invuln I posted a few hours ago, I blew a thick layer of dust off my Rad^2 this week as well.  She's 42 and so far, feels a little squishy.  She has next to none of the Sets listed here, so I'm sure she'll toughen up as I go, but again, I wanted some feedback on where I'm looking to take her.

 

If you've got something constructive to say, I'm all ears!

 

Thanks,

Generator

I don't play Sentinels a lot.
But I do know that the sense of squish isn't going to go away.

Rad/Rad Brutes sort of dance the line, with their lower HP totals and marginally lower Resists (unless you take extraordinary measures) means a bad run on the RNG basically craps in your Corn Flakes and you're frenching floor.

With a Resist cap of 75%, and even lower HP caps, you are almost better off taking the standard path and just trying to max your defenses.

[oldskool]

Defense and resistance should feel pretty sturdy.  

 

You could potentially swap slots between X-Ray and Neutron Bomb.  The Ward proc kinda sucks but it can check per target in an AoE gives it a tiny bit more utility.  You could use the other 5 slots in X-Ray for another Devastation to pick another chance at the hold proc plus better passive benefits than Positron's.  You're not really pushing heavy recharge to the point where that 6.25% makes or breaks anything. 

 

The shift from 12% global damage to 15% global damage (via the second Devastation) should net you a slight dps improvement.  The loss of the recharge is so minor that your T9's cooldown doesn't move too much further from where it is (its not quite a full second of time).  It'll be just be ever so slightly longer within that 34 second window.  

 

Set choices seem sound though.

[CarolinCLH]

I tried the build in the original post on my level 40 rad/rad sentinel and have been playing it for a few levels. I have to say my sent is tough as nails. She has been the last man standing in several group wipes. If she had taunt, she could tank. I haven't completely specced her recovery out, and I probably won't. She never runs out of end. Given that toughness and recovery are so good, I am trying to build up accuracy and damage a bit.

Nice build though.
