Street Justice Attack Chain?

As we can see my average of 86.9 seconds is a decent amount lower. There's nothing too crazy going on with my build, - I run +193.8% global recharge, fairly standard proc slotting (armageddon + fury of the glad in sweeping cross, touch of death + hide proc in assassin's strike, touch of death + achilles in shin breaker, and hecatomb + unbreakable constraint in crushing uppercut) with slotted recharge minimized as much as possible to ensure max proc rates - So I suspect the different opener to ensure that hide procs are used on CU and not SC are the key.

I have a question about the choice of slotting Crushing Uppercut: Hecatomb w/ the Unbreakable Constraint (%Smashing) proc.

 

Is there an advantage in picking the Purple %Smashing Hold proc (Unbreakable Constraint)over the PVP %Lethal Hold proc (Gladiator's Net) for the attack that already does Smashing damage? I'm aware of the PvE damage scale difference between Purple %Damage procs and most other %Damage procs (e.g. Touch of Death), but is there a difference in PvE %Damage dealt between Purple and PVP procs?

PvP procs are normal damage procs, they don't get anything special.  They're 3.5 PPM, 70-whatever damage instead of 4.5 PPM 100-whatever damage.  So it's way worse.

@CroaxI'm loving your build! The single target attack chain works really well. What does your attack chain looks like when aoe is added in? Or do you just down enemies one at a time?

If there are more than 3 enemys i usually open with:

 

 

Build Up -> Ball Lightning from Hide -> DNA Siphon

 

Now i target a Boss or Leut. In the middle and go:

 

Heavy Blow-> Shin Breaker -> Assassin Strike -> Spinning Strike

 

Sometimes i use Crushing Uppercut on another Boss instead of Spinning Strike because everything else is dead allready.

My fingers are so used to this, that i will CU more often than SS.

Also everyone else in this game spams AoE, so after the initial Ball Lightning, DNA Siphon there is not much to take care of.

Is StJ still top dmg? I mean, is it worth having or due to the mechanics EM or something else is better? Also, better on stalkers or scrappers? Thanks

I don't think it's ever been top damage, has it?  🤔  I dunno, though- I never played during live, so maybe it was different back then.  I do play Street Justice a lot, but primarily because I love the animations and sounds that go with it.  It's always performed very solidly for me, though, regardless of AT.

 

Of course, I am not a dedicated power-builder, so you will likely want to take that last bit with the proverbial grain of salt if you are looking for advice on apex-level performance.

STJ is still very good, and a nice balance of ST and AoE.   Top ST damage would go to EnM now ... Best AoE is probably Elec.

Pre the Energy Melee changes, Street Justice was at least arguably the top-tier single target stalker set.

Any of you guys have a build for my StJ/bio stalker please?
