Page 58.... BUT I was not super happy with that one. Once I got to play Marine and get a better feel.

 

SO...let me fiddle.

 

Here you go and some other builds I had sitting around.

Thank you for all the effort you put into this. Misery loves company and people can feel so useless that they envy you to the point they want to drag you down.

 

That said, how do you feel about your Storm/MA Corr build on 58? Still good? I rolled one tonight to take advantage of the ToT event and kind of fell in love with the character concept. 

 

Edit: I'm respeccing to this build now but swapping out hover/fly for combat jump/teleport for thematic reasons. But would I be kneecapping myself because hover blasting would be more useful with all the kb? I also like Whitecap but understand there was some disagreement on its actual usefulness early in release, is that still the case now that you've messed around with it a bit?

Problem with all that is the KB. If you don't mind scattering shit all over, even with proc's to turn it to KD. Enough Mag will still cause a KB.  Reason you have Hover with  a lot of blast sets. It provides KB protection to a degree(You hit with enough you'll be doing hover flips over & over).

 

More powers you take/change around. Means less powers and most important.   SLOTS.   I can tool around see what I get with your changing, 

 

EDIT: Here you go. You do lack KB Protection so keep some breakfree's on hand OR if you dislike not having it. You can replace TP Target & Fold Space with SJ & Acrobatics.  Then move extra 3 slots to where you see fit from Fold Space.(Hint Barrier Reef)

 

2nd EDIT: Before someone screams at me again(Yes happened multiple times). Why do you always take Web En. Cuz that recipe set is a huge chunk of S/L Defense for Black S. Shield. No one has to actually use the power, though it still handy.

Willing to spread your knowledge with an electric/fire/fire blaster build that is a blapper I suppose but still has strong range attacks? (I know  /fire loves to be in melee)

I know Mace is the meta but I really wanted fire for the Rez, shield and bonfire.... and also for concept.

If you're not too opposed to a person with serious alt-itis and roleplayer syndrome, perhaps you could help me with these builds?

• A Demon Mastery / Poison / Soul Mastery Mastermind (for solo content)
• A Water Blast / Marine Affinity / Leviathan Mastery Corruptor (for solo content)
• A Claws / Ninjutsu / Weapon Mastery Stalker
• A Stone Melee / Stone Armor / Earth Mastery Brute
• A Fiery Melee / Fiery Aura / Fire Mastery Scrapper

I would like to note that these suggestions are meant for theme rather than pure optimisation, which is why I don't want to use Mace Mastery. Obviously, still make them as optimised as the parameters allow. Thank you for all you do, and remember how much people like me appreciate your work!

I didn't do Stone, cuz you didn't specify if you wanted it to be a Garnite or non Granite build

To EVERYONE, not calling anyone out in particular. But in future, if you don't see activity or instant build drop day you ask.  Don't think I'm ignoring.

 

1. I don't live on these boards.

2. I'm probably busy doing other stuff.

3. I'm busy hashing stuff out with builds, especially if I get multiple requests at once.

4. I'm Sick(Like right now).

5. I don't need reminders about builds that have been posted, see above 4 options.

I legit can't remember who asked for this. It was in game, they said they had a Kin friend.  So here it is to whomever was asking me about it.

May i ask you for a Psy / Psy Blaster Build? Should be a good Solo Build. Dont know if +4/8 is possible with a blaster, but the goal is to make this my new Story Toon. Epic pool would be nice if it fits the theme. 

 

Kind regards

Hi @JJDrakken, thanks for all the great build ideas! Could you show me how you would do a Dark/Poison Controller? I always wanted to try poison but was never sure what to pair it with but I think Dark may be the answer.

Hello there, great work in all the builds you have done over the years.  Thank you for all  that effort.  I am seeking a build for an Ice Melee / Ice Armor Scrapper.  One that can solo well and can also help on teams.   I like to use combat teleport in most of my melee characters and prefer the Flight or Super Jump for travel powers.   Thanks in advance for this, it's appreciated.  

[Rshock0n3]

May i ask for a Illu / Time Troller with the following extras:
 

• Solo 4/+8
• Fireball
• Perma Hasten

Thank you in advance

4x8 is something better suited using your incarnates. But in all reality, 3x8 is the best overall for time vs effort equation. Especially if your PuGing.

Hi JJ,

 

I'm looking for a second build for my spines/fire brute. So not a farm build.

Could you make an allround one for me?

 

Thank you!!

@JJDrakken Thank you for doing this, I know it has helped me a ton as I am coming back from a long break. Could you do a Marine / Storm Defender?
