Help with my Son/Fire AOE Blapper

Jawbreaker · January 1, 2021

I've re-rolled one of my favorite characters from back in the day. I believe that back in the day she was specced for max melee and ranged defesne that i could get but I don't remember. The basic strategy was tostealth in, sleep a big mob w/siren's song, hop in the middle, hit BU and Aim, then FS circle, Combustion, Dreadful wail to finish them off. I was never much of a build master and seem to be worse at it now. Can anyone tweak this one, as well as suggest what Incarnate powers I should be considering?

thanks in advance!

Something like this maybe, i'm sure someone will come up with something better 45% s/l/e and close to n/e. I don't know how to hit the melee and ranged but smashing and lethal usually suffices for most stuff. Threw in the powers i like i still think you'd be better off with hotfeet over sirens song. Stealth pool is the least useful power pool out there. Superspeed and a celerity and stealth in sprint is plenty. Screams one of my fav powers but i know the animation is too long for a lot of players:

It's not a very synergistic paring. Both sets have powers with long animations but one set wants to be ranged and the other one wants to be in melee. These long animations that root you will kill you. To get the most out of this pairing I feel you need to master movement, jousting in and out of range for your pbaoes and constantly kiting.

Sonic blast is just a terrible set for blasters, shout makes me wanna die every time I use it and the cones are not that much better. I would not take shout at all. Instead I'd take a hold from the epic and proc monster it to fill in for that third ST ranged attack. I feel most of your AoE are going to be ranged, rotating between howl and shockwave. The latter can create opportunities to hop into melee range and joust a PbAOE, whether that's combustion or fire sword circle. Neither combustion or FSC are that great due to animation and root times but take your pick. If I had to choose I'd go combustion for the bigger radius, you are already going to be rooted for an eternity anyway and if you learn how to joust pbaoes it's not as big of a deal.

Siren's song is of marginal use when you have softcapped defenses. You can make the argument that you can use siren's song to sleep adds or sleep groups solo and pick them off one by one but on teams 1-shot sleeps are useless. Shockwave is magnitudes more useful than song because it does damage, provides consistent knockdown and can trigger the FF proc. I also wouldn't run your attack sequence of combustion-fsc-wail, I'd do it in the exact reverse sequence. Wail is fast and stuns, which gives you breathing room to fire the other two assuming things are still alive after wail.

Of the defenses blasters should build for ranged defense is the most important. You can create opportunities to go into melee range with knockdowns and holds and stuns so that melee defense is less a priority, but the ranged stuff is what kills you and stop a fight before it starts.

This is what I envision for this pairing. Note the low S/L melee defenses. You need to watch for and/or create opportunities to go into melee or get buffs from teammates. Mastering the art of movement is going to be the key to success with this build.

These long animations that root you will kill you. To get the most out of this pairing I feel you need to master movement, jousting in and out of range for your pbaoes and constantly kiting.

Sonic blast is just a terrible set for blasters, shout makes me wanna die every time I use it and the cones are not that much better. I would not take shout at all. Instead I'd take a hold from the epic and proc monster it to fill in for that third ST ranged attack. I feel most of your AoE are going to be ranged, rotating between howl and shockwave. The latter can create opportunities to hop into melee range and joust a PbAOE, whether that's combustion or fire sword circle. Neither combustion or FSC are that great due to animation and root times but take your pick. If I had to choose I'd go combustion for the bigger radius, you are already going to be rooted for an eternity anyway and if you learn how to joust pbaoes it's not as big of a deal.

Siren's song is of marginal use when you have softcapped defenses. You can make the argument that you can use siren's song to sleep adds or sleep groups solo and pick them off one by one but on teams 1-shot sleeps are useless. Shockwave is magnitudes more useful than song because it does damage, provides consistent knockdown and can trigger the FF proc. I also wouldn't run your attack sequence of combustion-fsc-wail, I'd do it in the exact reverse sequence. Wail is fast and stuns, which gives you breathing room to fire the other two assuming things are still alive after wail.

Of the defenses blasters should build for ranged defense is the most important. You can create opportunities to go into melee range with knockdowns and holds and stuns so that melee defense is less a priority, but the ranged stuff is what kills you and stop a fight before it starts.

This is what I envision for this pairing. Note the low S/L melee defenses. You need to watch for and/or create opportunities to go into melee or get buffs from teammates. Mastering the art of movement is going to be the key to success with this build.

Right, it is an AOE blapper combo. Sonic is basically there to offer some -res and to initially sleep the mobs so I can get into position. It worked well back on live with a much less impressive build than this so i'll have to take it for a spin and report back. Thank you!
