Kinetics/Energy Aura Build

[KaizenSoze]

I am having a bake off between my stalker and scrapper versions of kin/ea.

 

The scrapper versions much more of a tank against 3-4x4 arachnos and carnies in my tests of the beta server.

 

The scrapper ranged attacks are great for kiting or pulling. The scrapper version seems the stronger of the two.

 

Inexperienced with scrappers, so choices might appear odd. Like the best place to put the ATOs.

 

Could be talked out of concentrated strike, but it isn't bother me as much as people warned. Very few builds available.

 

Pros:

Softcap all types but dark/psi

Psi resists at 34%

Pretty of stuns with con strike, smashing blow, and water spout.

AOE attacks are quick.

Lots of recharge.

 

Cons:

Expensive, but can be built over time

Negative def could be higher. I was hoping the forum hive mind can help.

I would most definitely shoot for softcap to all types except psi. Usually negative can be achieved by taking a ranged attack and slotting it with thunder strike. You can also two slot a hold with basilisks gaze. 
 

I’ll take a look once I get a chance.

[Saikochoro]

Okay I had a chance to review your build. There were several things that were keeping you from reaching softcap, but were fixable.

 

I am posting two builds for you.  The first one i tried to keep as true to your build as possible in terms of power choices and procs.  I made some changes in defense slotting to make it so some set bonuses weren't being capped.  IMO chasing psionic resistance on energy aura is not worth losing softcap on a defense type so you do have less psionic resistance.

Second build:  This is what I would personally run.  I dropped the leadership pool and picked up sorcery to get rune of protection.  This will boost your resists into nice solid levels with 50% uptime, which is more than sufficient.  Your endurance management is also quite a bit easier.  You don't have as many procs in your attacks, but they had a low chance anyway so you aren't losing much.  Also, i didn't chase FF + rech, as I feel that your global bonuses and entropic aura bonuses will be more than sufficient.  Just note that this build is quite a bit different than yours.  Just putting this out there for food for thought in working your own build.
