build advice Mach 2 Air Support Build: Perma-Boost Power BR/Energy

Sunsette · June 2, 2021

v2.0 I've put together an experimental Perma-Boost Power build for ranged artillery. Basic premise is:

You've got two Mag 3 area stuns with durations and cooldowns in the 20-30s range.
Ridiculous recharge generally speaking plus absurd range means you can snipe safely from a distance and cover very wide areas with AoEs to make up for BRs normal deficiencies with area.
Capped every defense with incarnates and spread 21.4% Def to allies within 50 feet.
Hyper-mobility: capped flight movement.
Solid DPS (~370 in standard rotation)

You are hyper-mobile support fire -- devastating in your own right, but you can watch over the entire battlefield and protect anyone anywhere with suppressing fire. Maintaining perma boost power and boost range can be annoying, but it's neat!

Sadly I don't have any advice to offer, but I'll be keeping an eye on this thread because this looks like a really fun Blaster build!

Good timing anyway -- just put up a new version.

As someone on Discord put it,

"Hello. I'm a Force Fields Blaster."

dangeraaron10 · June 3, 2021

You know I completely forgot that Energy Manip's Stun changes range based on whether you have Boost Range or Power Boost up. I love the idea of being a jetpack using hoverblaster, and Beam Rifle seems as good a primary as any! Definitely helps that BR's single target blasts are roughly equivalent to the melee attacks in Energy Manipulation and can get a rotation based on BR alone. At some point I'm going to make an /Energy Blaster though it feels like a tossup between Beam Rifle and Ice Blast at this point.

Can you post the text format of the build? I am very interested but sadly I don’t have mids on my Mac.

I had that originally, but for w/e reason attempts to put in a new one were of mixed success. Had to do it plaintext, no formatting -- hope it's not too rough to read.

Sunsette · June 4, 2021

After some testing, it's not earth-shattering -- Stun doesn't get affected by any source of range increase, so it interferes with the play of the rest of the build, and Mids erred on how it displayed Support Core's benefits to the player, so while defenses are great, you do not cap every defense, lol. Replaced Stun with Web Envelope for an immob and it works well but nothing to write home about.

Current version of the build. This one relies on layered defenses: range + kb + resists + regen (hi yes I'm a REGENERATION blaster).

Perma-Energize + Perma-Boost Power gives this build sentinel-like survival potential. Weaker on defense than a Sentinel, but paired with higher damage and higher damage caps. It carries with it Ranged Softcap, 55.78% S/L Resist, 31.25% F/C Resist, 11.75% E/N Resist as well as the scaling resist IO; close to blaster cap HP; and 41 HP/s passive regeneration.
When it actually is overwhelmed, this build can use Personal Force Field to avoid cascade defense failure and get +28 to all resists. After a maximum of 30 seconds (assuming 1/1699 HP) the build will be back at full HP with all cooldowns ready to go.
This build has the Endurance to be able to afford keeping Repulsion Field on passively, and slots it for maximum knockback; it is not meant to be using the field aggressively, but as an always-on source of protection. The build can comfortably afford to repel one enemy every 3 seconds on average so it should be fine as long as you are using the Repulsion Field as a surprise defense and not to play Superhero Monkey Ball. (Can easily take Stun instead if you want to use that as an emergency hold, but Repulsion Field is slotted so it will even Knockback -- not down, back -- AVs.)

I hit 50 in Live and some observations so far:

This build really nails the power armor feel due to all the clickies; I have to watch Energize, Hasten, Boost Power and situationally use Boost Range and Build-Up. It is not actually possible to run all five clickies on auto for very long, you get diminishing returns. Sometimes you make a decision to let Energize or Boost Power fall off to focus on DPS and that's OK. 'Diverting systems to weapon power.' This makes it really fun and emphasizes that you're making choices about how to play.
KB-slotted Repulsion Field is a fantastic line of defense with as much endurance as this build has to spare. Stay aerial as much as possible but when things are going south for your party you can plant yourself on the ground between shots and scatter any but the very toughest EBs away from someone getting beat up on.
PFF is a decent panic button (but could be better)

Before I was even 50 I was surviving through the ambush at the end of the first mission of ITF +3x8 and outputting a lot of damage. I went right back at 50 with IOs at +4x8 and did even better.

Third and likely final revision:
