TA/DP Build

[shaggy]

Hey guys! Been loving this power combo! Debuffs and damage out the ass! I've never actually made a full build before but see myself sticking with this one for a long time. I put together this one hoping to make good use out of procs as well as giving myself some decent survivability. Obviously it's expensive as hell, but do you guys see any obvious improvements?

Also I'm not sure if I fully know how procs work, but I kitted out Ice Arrow, Acid Arrow, and to a lesser extent Pistols with it. Is this an efficient way of increasing my damage with those powers?

 

One change I did make was changing out Glue Arrow for Entangling Arrow with a +chance to hold proc in it for some extra -res and lockdown.

good call on getting EA in there. not that glue arrow is bad but it's not as good as it used to be.

 

I'd question why you are running so hard for your defensive bonuses when you only have one slot in flash (ah ah) arrow. It's values in game were boosted tremendously compared to what mids shows and it can give you flexibility to pursue more procs or resistance or whatever you want.

 

Suppressive fire can do a ton of damage if you proc it up. It can take hold and damage procs due to it's transformation to a hold with chem ammo.

 

Here's my thought experiment version. I was playing with RotP in it so you can ignore that... or use it. 🙂

Ok, Rambos, doesn't the dual redraw just about drive you nuts?

[Ankhammon]

I have a level 20 something and most of the time you do a lot of arrow shots and then pistol shots . The most annoying time is the Ice Arrow because you can/will pull that one out in the middle of a damage (pistol) chain.

 

And if I'm remembering right (at work now) you can turn off the draw mechanism from each. Looks a little clippy but will definitely cut down the annoying redraw.

 

and Psylenz, mine's more of a good cop gone vigilante than Rambo. 🙂

Believe it or not my AR/TA Corr doesn't have No Redraw selected and I love it.
