Human-only Warshade Build


Recommended Posts

I'm going to jump on the human-only WS build bandwagon. I've got a triform build I use and am very fond of. I'd like to use my second build slot for a human-only build and I've been reading over other folk's builds to get some inspiration and some advice on how to do it.

 

Notes about this build. Most of the time, it will run with Tough and Gravity Shield off and rely on Eclipse for resistances. In the event of an extended combat without available targets to refresh Eclipse (ie: AVs, GMs, etc), flip on Tough and Gravity Shield for ~75% S/L resists. I built with an eye toward both Recharge and Melee Defense, trying not to sacrifice too much of one for the other (as I think too many builds do). To that end, there's some RNG built into the recharge, as both Shadow Blast and Gravitic Emanation have FF procs slotted to help boost recharge times. Without them, Hasten (and thus Eclipse) are not permanent, though, as previously mentioned, there are contingencies built in to help alleviate this (assuming there's time to implement them during combat :P). If not, well, that's what Stygian Return is for. This build isn't really meant for anything but level 40-50+ content, for anything lower I'd almost certainly swap back over to my TriForm build. Eclipse maxes all resists but Tox/Psi at 4 targets (tox/psi are at 83.69% with 4 targets), and everything at 5. Leadership slotting (and, let's face it, being a Warshade) mean rolling with a team is ideal to exploit the increased proc chances on Gaussian's proc and the WS inherent. Gravitic Emanation retains the 'cosmic shotgun' character of the version in my TriForm build that I enjoy so much, though it swaps one of the damage procs for KB->KD to help keep things grouped together (more critical here than on my triform build).

 

This build uses no purple sets, as those are generally outside of my price range. If I really like the build, I may gradually include them and shuffle around the winter and ATO sets. Purple sets would help close the hasten gap with superior recharge bonuses, but I believe this will do fine without them.
