Hi, I'm glad you're back. You are my reference for builds. Although I've searched from the beginning, I haven't found any for a Dark Melee/Willpower scrapper. He was and is my main hero. But I would like to know if a better build is possible. I have like travel super jump, but if you think another way is better, no problem :D.
I wait for your answer and THANKS again.

Hey @JJDrakken you have a claws/stone scrapper from back in May 6th of last year. I'm on my phone so don't know how to link it here for your reference.

 

I am wondering if there is anything you'd fundamentally change in that build nowadays? I don't remember any big changes coming to claws or stone armor since then?

Probably not, though if you provide me repost of the build, cuz I am not going go looking for it, lol. I can look at it.  I ain't paid enough to do that... I ain't paid at all actually..  lol.

Lol my brain didn't work, of course I could have just reposted the whole thing.

 

And.....Nope you don't get paid, so I'd only do it if I enjoyed it.

Pretty much.  I would switch out recipe for Spin. Instead of Oblit, do full set of Erad.

So with DP, I need to know what combos you want.  I don't do a lot those, cuz that's one sets I need actual info from the user.

That makes a lot of sense, I'm not the most knowledgeable when it comes to what combos I would want to pick. I've only been playing for a few years now and not super consecutively. I guess my idea is I was wanting a "blapper" like play style, be able to dive in with the Hail of Bullets and not have to worry too much about dying. Mainly play with a friend of mine and we tend to duo most things. Sorry for not having a super clear idea on it.

 

another question though, would this concept be similar to your DP/Ninja training that you have posted?

Oh wait, Dual Pistols, sorry.  Hunger/tiredness made me think it was DB, Dual Blades, lol.  I can work on that.

I still keep getting PMs about this.

 

All files here need Mid's Reborn to open: https://midsreborn.com/

 

Also, folks please post here. As I've stated before if I get a PM.  I get an Email, then I start to worry/wonder WTF is happening.  Is someone helping me out with RL stuff, did someone I know in game have accident/death, did someone from old days find me and trying get a hold of me, or am I getting another death threat, angry message, or passive aggressive spam message?

 

Either way, causes my anxiety to spike up some, so please use this post for anything related to builds or questions about the game.

Hey JJ, Happy Holidays! Was wondering if you had a Super Reflexes / Staff Fighting Tanker build that is relatively cheap?

That would be SO's.   ... Your asking for set who's recipes don't normally come cheap. (Defense recipes).  So if you want cheap, just use SO's or basic IO's.

 

So here is an End Goal build.  Till then as I said, just use SOs or IOs

Odd combo, but ok.

Could you do a dark/ice tank with no build cost limit aiming for soft cap positional defense (can include 5% from barrier) and hard cap (or near to it) resists (excluding energy/toxic)? Prefer either /psi or /soul mastery along with high recharge debuff resist and sufficient kb protection (also fine with running acrobatics).

 

I do have a build that I've been tinkering with for a while now and gets close to those values, but want to see if there's a better way of slotting it. I can post my version if you want to see it.

Do you mean Dark Armor or Ice Armor?  Cuz your asking for soft capped defense.  Dark Armor is far more resist base then defense based. While Ice Armor is far more defense based then resist based.

 

Here it's what you originally asked for. Soft Capping a resist set, not exactly feasible most time. Some can in certain stuff like say Invuln or WP.

Now if you got confused and ment Ice Armor, that's a different story. Remember Tankers Primary is Armor first, unlike a Brute or Scrapper.

I did mean dark armor. I do know that it's a resist based set, but basically want to make it as tough as possible. Even though it will suffer from defense debuffs, it will still help with the initial alpha attacks and ice patch will reduce the number of incoming attacks and debuffs afterwards.

 

The build I had come up for those goals is below, but I definitely wanted to see another take in reaching those goals. Thank you for posting the build, I'll do some comparing to see if I can adjust the slotting in any way.

Fraken-slotting. Not my favorite build style.  You honestly don't need haste.  But if the build suits you and works for you. Then there nothing wrong with it.

 

Builds are tailored to a person's personal play style and understanding. While I think a different way & play a different way. Doesn't make any other build less valid, if it works for someone, cool.

I have been debating on if I should include it or not. It's obviously not a recharge heavy build and won't achieve perma hasten, but it does help with uptime of Dark Regen when it's up. I'm tempted to swap it for taunt and it would give me an extra slot for Stamina.

I don't think I did that much of it in this build besides the superior blistering cold in kick and brawl. I feel that recharge debuff resist is important to max out here so that recharge isn't massively debuffed to the point I can't use Dark Regen heal. Most everything else is going for set bonuses while slotting the powers with the occasional useful proc/unique.

Hey again!

Could you update your mercenaries/Elec MM build? I appreciate any help you can provide.
