[Ground Fault]

I have a IOd, incarnated out fire/fire sentinel. Its a beast, the only thing that is bugging me right now is KB, I am about to respec out of fire mastery to pick up Acrobatics. I didn't take fighting, I would also add leadership, it is severely under utilized by players.

[Sovera]

Don't you have combat jumping or Hover to slot a KB protection IO?

[Ground Fault]

I forgot about that IO, its been 7 years. Ill put it in. Once again KB was the only thing that got me killed last night, cant heal when getting tossed around the map like a ragdoll.

[Xoza]

Hmm my Mids' seems out of date. Lot of Sentinel data missing.

[kage1822]

I just retooled my build...

 

I did add in both Maneuvers & Tactics from Leadership, but not til late in the build

[ShadowDreamer]

Have any of you guys played around with Blazing blast at higher levels?

 

I recently made a post on the bug forums, but figured people that have used it more than I have might know something I missed.  From what I have observed, it doesn't actually do 13 ticks of damage like the ingame info says it does, and really only does 5, which ends up with it being worse than fire blast for DPA and ends up just being a mediocre utility power more than a damaging attack.

[IronJuke]

I'm not a fan of Flares.  Is there a reason to take it?  Seems like you would have plenty of attacks and it's mostly filler.  I usually pass on the first available lower power attacks in just about any powerset.

[ParaBruce]

With sentinels, it's essentially always a good idea to take the first two powers. They build charge quickly, and the first triggers Offensive Opportunity, the second Defensive Opportunity.

 

[IronJuke]

Do any other powers build offensive, defensive charges?

[Fedifensor]

Do any other powers build offensive, defensive charges?

Doing damage builds opportunity, but it takes a Tier 1 or Tier 2 primary attack to trigger that opportunity.

 

 

Level 27 with my fire/fire sentinel, and I'm wondering whether to skip some of the higher-level powers.  Burn requires being on the ground, and half of the time I'm using Hover (the other half, I use Super Speed with a Stealth IO to zoom past foes I don't care about fighting).  Inferno is a PBAoE that is reportedly a shorter radius and less targets than the blaster version, when I prefer to fight at range.  Rise of the Phoenix is nice...but with defensive powers, I don't die very often.  That's three powers I could skip...but what would I pick in their place?

[Force Redux]

Fire pool immobilize perhaps?

WOW. I feel exceptionally dumb now! Played a Fire sentinel to veteran level you-don't-want-to-know, with Blazing Blast as a staple of my attack chain, and didn't notice that. Even advised people on here to get it. There goes my credibility. :D

 

Nice catch, ShadowDreamer!

 

[Force Redux]

No access to Pine's or game right now...but, to confirm: no immobilize protection without Burn?

[Jeneki]

Correct, no immob protection in /fire.  You can also use Combat Jumping to cover that.

 

If you go with burn and want to use it as a damage power, I suggest looking into one of the ancillary pools with an AoE immobilize power to keep enemies in it.  Fire mastery has one of these if you want to stay within theme.

Cool, ty!

[Fedifensor]

Here's my current build, at level 31.  It focuses on range (+37.5% global range from the sentinel sets, and a bit in the Positron's Blast sets) while still having an effective attack chain and survivability.  I didn't see an option in the planner to show attuned enhancements or enhancement boosters, but the Tempest IOs in Place, Preventative Medicine IOs in Healing Flames, and the Annihilation IOs in Fire Ball and Fire Breath are all level 30 crafted IOs with 5 enhancement boosters each.  Everything else except for Stamina and the powers that don't take sets have attuned IOs.

[Fedifensor]

Planning a level 50 respec for the final build on my Sentinel.  Here's my rough draft.  It has +50% global range, which puts the build back into blaster territory.  Capped Smash/Lethal/Fire resistance, +32% ranged defense, +30% energy/negative defense, and +14% defense versus everything else.  Very endurance efficient despite the many toggles, and 3 healing powers to keep me up in tough situations.  The only hole is Immobilize - if this becomes a serious issue, I can respec to remove Rise of the Phoenix and add Combat Jumping.

[Generator]

Looks good.  What are you doing for KB Protection?  (Assuming it's not there and I didn't miss it.)

[Xionian]

Okay, question...

 

how good is Cauterizing Blaze?

 

Like, skipabble or pretty much essential?

 

if it isn't skipabble would taking warmth change that?

 

[Fedifensor]

Looks good.  What are you doing for KB Protection?  (Assuming it's not there and I didn't miss it.)

I have a set bonus from Gladiator's Armor that gives Mag 3 protection, and Hover is pseudo-protection.  If that's not enough, I can swap out one of the Blessing of the Zephyr IOs for the one that gives knockback protection.

[Generator]

Aha!  I forgot there's that set bonus KB protection.  Thanks for replying.

[Fedifensor]

how good is Cauterizing Blaze?

 

Like, skipabble or pretty much essential?

I’ve had groups of Malta or Nemesis (a half-dozen or so) attacking me repeatedly without my health bar going down.  Granted, I also have capped S/L/F resists and Cauterizing Blaze is fully slotted, but the heal counters the damage that does get through.  I consider that pretty much essential.  A build not quite as tweaked out for resists and ranged defense wouldn’t have the same level of survivability, but we’re talking performance with a fully-developed build.

 

Warmth will undoubtably help - it’s like a second Healing Flames with lower healing and better recharge, with the fringe bonus of healing teammates right next to you.

[Xionian]

Good to know, i guess i was looking at warmth instead for the team value. Maybe i can cram them both in. Ill have to check my build later

[Tacheyon]

So I am having fun leveling up my fire/fire Sent.  Only lvl 27, but looking at maybe respeccing and dropping Fire Blast as I really don't want to be wasting triggering a Oppertunity for the DEF buff.

 

I was thinking about picking up Fire Breath but looking at all the builds on the website I see that no one takes it.  Is it that bad?  I see the power activation time is 2.67secs.  But there are other attacks that long.  I was just looking at adding another AoE attack to my chain if possible.
