Greeting fellow CoH heros and villains!

Im a long time player but one thing I always have problem with are builds. Im always looking at forums for builds but cant seem to find anything in this combination. Some time ago i started playing seismic/earth blaster and i loved it so much i decided to make it my main char. Ive made my power choices but have no idea how to make good endgame S/L build with this. Cost does not matter since im willing to put any amount of inf on this one. Does anyone have any engame build they could share or help me do something about this one?

 

Thank you and have a great hunt!

Your build suffers the same issue many beginner builds do - lack of focus.

 

Know yourself, know your game plan, then work the build to revolve around your game plan. You can not just throw a bunch of full sets together and make a good build, this is not that type of game.

 

First define your goal(s). How do you want to play this build and what do you expect this build to do? What is endgame S/L? S/L farm? SL softcap? etc...

Razerussss, I messed with your just a little and got a few different totals.  Our resist and defense are switched, same with endurance and health. 

Someone with skills could hopefully turn it into a beast.

Did anyone get farther with this or post a final build that works well?

 

I'm just flat out bad with custom builds, and been only marginally successful with frankenbuilds.

 

Someone asked about focus: make big damage, survive in melee enough for the blappery powers, not as frail as wet tissue, not stunned every couple of minutes, playable from 0-50.

 

I have simple needs. 😄

Are there any especially good resources for creating effective builds in this game? Perhaps a general guide, or a resource with enough specific examples that one could learn from them?

Sure, I’ve written a few in the blaster forum but the build and the focus for you will depend on your goals.

 

The link below walks you through the general approach and methodology towards the poster’s specific goals.

Which alpha do you recommend?

Since seismic is ranged i would go the right side of intuition.  At the T4 level you are looking at +33% damage and +20 range.  
 

then i try to fit in 4-5 of the Bombardment (2+ pieces) and maybe PvP Snipe 2+ pc.  Max 5 total of both combined.  Each two piece set of these gives +5% range.  
 

Range is your friend.  Remember, most AoE and ranged attacks coming at you have limited range.  With an Earth Blaster you can stand off like a Battleship and hammer an enemy that cannot reach you.  This really lightens the need to build massive survivability.
