Spines/Fire Farmer Build (Please Review) +Bonus: Picture of my Farmer


Mythical Creature

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

Please review my Spines/Fire Brute Farming Build, my goal is to farm the fire maps in AE (and nothing else I have a lot of other alts to play to do other things).

 

A few thoughts that went into my build, I wanted to avoid using redundant abilities (for example I built around Plasma Shield), going way over cap in stats (wasting space), and I wanted to avoid as many purple sets as possible (I ended up picking only two superior sets, Avalanche and Frozen Blast). I also wanted to get up to 90% Fire Resistance and 45% Fire Defense (If I understand correctly this is all the defenses needed for fire farming). After that I wanted to increase endurance recovery and health recovery abilities. After all that, I wanted to be as well-rounded as possible, apart from maybe slightly more s/l defense due to the common appearance. 

 

My final build that I worked on is below. Please let me know if there are any fatal flaws, or anything that might be worked in differently. 

 

For a fun bonus, I included a picture of my new villain farmer named Forest-Fire! 

 

Thanks in Advance!

Your build should clear most Fire Farms, might not be super quick. The biggest thing that sticks out is the low level of global recharge.  A couple little changes and your defense numbers go up that other powers can be slotted for recharge.  Positron's Blast, LotG, Doctored Wounds, etc. 

 

Was it intentional to not use the same set more than once?  Three slotting Aegis into a couple powers is an easy way of getting Fire Defense. Mocking Beratement in Consume and/or Taunt gets recharge and Fire Defense.  

 

Get a few vet levels and pick up Ageless for the Destiny slot, suddenly Endurance is more manageable and Hasten is closer to perma.

Thanks for your input, several people on reddit also pointed that out. I revised my build some based on this feedback to include more recharge. Ill post the new one in a little bit. Also the different sets was intentional but only because I thought you couldn't duplicate, turns out it is just the ones with unique on them.

Here is version 2 of my Spines/Fire Brute Fire Farmer. I essentially took Warlawk's farm fresh build and modified it to fit my play style more.

I sacrificed about 12% of the global recharge from 98% down to a whopping 86% (before haste), but in return I got better endurance management (more than 1.0/s separating regen from use), higher global +damage, slightly higher regen.

I also swapped out a few abilities to fit my theme better, for example, Mu Lightning instead of Impale for a ranged attack (it has twice the range, less endo cost, and shorter cast time). I also wanted to keep my ripper ability instead of vengeance for the additional 7% recharge slot (it ends up with 5% regen so only 2% loss and the +damage more than makes up for that).

I think I am happy with this one, it hits all the goals and is maybe a bit more conducive to distracted farming. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to improve my build.

Thanks all! 🙂
