Hey bud that build for ele/ele sent isnt working quite well for me any recommendations for best synergy and smooth gameplay for soloing/team play? Also this is a general question about builds for kinetics what are the top 2 that have synergy with kinetics on corrupter? Thanks! You rock!

 

For Sentinels? SR, Regen, Radiation Armor are top 3.

 

As for Kinetic Synergy. Literally anything.... Kinetics meshes with everything. Literally the very first Farmers on live where Fire/Kin Controllers. So it comes down to what you like for your offense.

Sorry you made me an ele/ele sentinel build with heavy melee in it before but I dont think its quite working to well, so I was wondering if you had other recommendations? I am fine with havoc punch if its still recommended to take. I do like the dot aura from ele epics to.

Recommendations for what exactly?  You gotta realize, For Sentinels, Scrappers, hell everyone but a Brute, Tank, Kheldian & Spiders. Your Resist cap is 75%  Then factor in your trying melee on a class that's better suited for range.  It's a Range Scrapper for a reason. If you wanna do that, be a Scrapper.

 

If your asking for a Sentinel Idea?  Try Elec/Regen Sentinel.

What would you say is the best AT for Dual Pistols?  I've not played one since Live really and I've really got a hankering for it, but I'm nowhere near skilled enough in build making as I used to be and only just recently returned to playing here.  Only real request aside from Dual Pistols is that it includes Hover and Fly.  Thanks for all the hard work you do for the community!

[ocman6220]

Are there any updates for Katana/WP scrapper and/or ele/sd scrapper, or do they still work well as configured?

Scrolling through I don't believe i have seen DP/Fire Blaster.  i think i have to powers set how id like it.  I'm awful at set IOs if you would be so kind.  The idea is Blapper oriented, Combat teleport in fire off PBAOEs combat teleport out(if needed) rinse repeat.  Id like to have Hail of Bullets on as low a CD as possible and all 3 Positional Defenses at or near caps (I'm ok with chewing purple candies to reach it however) so i can reap maximum benefit from PBAOE Toggles.  I chose the range attacks with KB/KD for Force Feedback procs... Beyond that I'm at a loss

 

Attached is the powers I'd like with 1 Caveat... I'm ok with Consume being dropped for Rise of the Phoenix if you can make endurance a non-issue.  Just move Burn to Consume's slot and grab ROTP last.  

 

Thanks in advance oh master of builds!

Any chance you have two builds puttering around in there JJ? I am looking for an Energy/Bio Scrapper and looking for a Rad/Savage Tanker! I searched through and didnt see either but I will admit that I can be blind so apologies if I missed one of them. Much thanks whenever you get time and thanks for all the hard work you put in for great builds

Any chance you can Provide a Crabbermind build? Can provide what I have now, but lost the original build file, and it was not complete before loosing it

What you gave me is a nightmare, what your asking with that build is a nightmare.  You picking stuff that's not meshing well. You wanna blapper, but you wanna use DP also.

 

Here is a build, I'm even not exactly happy with it. But it soft caps S/L Nearly Soft Caps E, and High 30s to low 40s for positional. It also offers decent bonus to recharge, but overall. Folks REALLY should D/L Mids and tool around and learn. Then play those builds and learn and re-tool, etc.. You'll start to see oh this doesn't work with this or that doesn't really go well with what I was thinking.  Folks see all the flashy powers and want them all, but then want to live 24-7 as well.  Especially as a Blaster/Blapper.  You'll learn you have to sacrifice a lot of one way to go another.

Cheers!

I didn't see one after sifting the last 30 pages, but would you happen to have an Archery/NIN blaster build? A little blapping is fine. No particular choosiness on powers (but combat teleport would be cool if you could fit it).

 

Thank you for all your amazing work!

Hey JJDrakken,

Im trying to build an Energy/Energy Stalker but im not quite sure what breakpoints I should be aiming for.

I noticed the Ninja blade build and the Energy melee build from this post have similar powers but slotted differently between the two, as well as Total Power being skipped in the energy build. Would a double energy stalker end up looking different or would i be safe to meld these two ideas together?

Yes I understand the limitations but whats the point of having an end draining aura if I cannot be in melee range? I am fine not using melee atsk though thanks for the info. And has anyone seen a rad/kinetics corrupter build around? I am just trying to get an idea of what works well together and do not have allot of experience in what 50 will be like for kinetics just like to get ideas from builds thanks!

-sighs- I've done that build SO MANY TIMES OVER, folks just never bother looking. Hell even that one dude who made that catalog on page 30. Has a link to one.

 

I'll do it one more time, but put yourself in my shoes. Imaging folks constantly asking you for literally same build over & over so they can get spoon fed it, without taking time to search through the thread. I git, it's a big a thread.  But still.  This will be last time I post that build again. Until some serious changes happen to Corrupters or Kinetics or Radiation Attack.
