Nova Form capped ranged defense feedback

[Mystoc]

Squid Peacebringer - Luminous Blast - Luminous Aura.mxd

[Mystoc]

the idea I had was stay nova form and go for ranged defense and recharge as the most desirable set bonuses I was able to get capped range defense but was wondering if anyway sees a way to stay capped ranged defense and get more recharge at the same time

 

for now I am using Agility radial paragon alpha for the more recharge and fly move speed and end mod but Intuition Radial Paragon is also a good option for the alpha slot to get more  attack range and attack damage and increased defense debuff so I will most likely be switching between the two trying decide what would be better at the moment

interesting build but I went for more even approach to defence and only managed to get 16%/17% defence on ranged, melee and aoe with recharge bonus of +191.25% (291.25%)

yeah i figured if im flying melee cant hit me so i just went for range. im 273 rec with hasten but need an alpha with recharge to get hasten perma I know I could get more recharge and its most likely better damage wise the idea was I could be a tank in squid form with light form and still do good dmg so be hyrbid tank aoe dmg dealer

Then my only solution would be to remove the range extender from bright nova scatter and add an additional -recharge onto hasten making it 3 slotted which would make hasten 119.2s recharge and +5 them as well

yeah one slot for for 2-3 sec recharge is not worth the range is important to me cause it levels nova scatter range with the other aoe its goes to 90 range and the other  nova detonation goes to 100, thanks for feedback in my builds though 3 slotting hasten seems like over kill would only consider doing it if I had unused slots

Not an easy build to suggest possible avenues, but I have found another option, change overwheling force, chance for knockdown/knockback to knockdown to force feedback: chance for recharge since your mainly will be flying nova, should have higher chance of proccing

Is this just a concept build as I don't see the purpose on live. I know everybody has different playstyles, but....... a fully ranged out Blaster would make more sense IMO.
