Duck-Smokes-Quack Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Anything that pairs particualarly well with Dark/ ? Im thikning maybe /Staff seems good, maybe /Claws? /TW seems like it could be great but the journey to 50 would be brutal since it probably cant function without Cardiac Im probably leaning towards Dark/Staff right now since it has nice AoE and the end discount, but ive never actually used staff and i know people say its damage is low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gobbledigook Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Martial Arts for high defence build. Rad/spines for 2 auras. Savage gives endurance reduction also. Street justice with disorientates and oppressive Gloom (any set with disorient like EM also). Claws, DM or pretty much anything really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) I'm leveling Dark/Martial Arts myself, enjoying the extra defense and stunning bosses. Katana works well on my Brute for lethal/melee soft cap, and being able to go way, way over the soft cap to handle lethal or melee defense debuffs. Dark Melee gives you endurance recovery and other tools. And I'll agree that if you want to do damage, Staff doesn't seem to be the way to go numerically. It feels like it's doing damage, though. Look at all those orange numbers! And it sounds like you're hammering together some IKEA furniture, which is a constant source of amusement.

TrishaTwilight Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 I have a dark/psi that works very well, but there isn't really any inherent synergy I would say. It's just a fun pair that is pretty survivable. Dark is probably (to me) the best set to make survivable with IOs. Love dark! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it kinda puts me off when everyone says the same thing about Staff being low damage (although i know it shouldnt) My main is MA/SR so not looking to roll any more MA i dont think, although it does loko juciy on tankers for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cutter Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Got a Dark/Elec that I've been having a good time with. No particular synergy between the sets tho. @Cutter So many alts, so little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warboss Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 I enjoy Dark/Fire/Mu. Nothing warms your opponent like Fiery Melee.

Rylas Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Dark/Rad/Mu. Lots of AoE fun, decent single target. Grab some +End procs (Theft of Essence in Dark Regen). Have yourself a good time.

You may have just ruined Staff for me. Or made it better. Jury is out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
