First Attempt at Mids

[Suspicious Activity]

This is my first attempt at revising a robotics/traps build. Any advice and revisions would be appreciated.

Malware-Marauder-2.mxd

[StrikerFox]

Pet slotting can be improved for better all round stats while still slotting pretty much the same IOs.

Squeeze in Web Envelope if possible. It's such an upgrade over Web Grenade. Or if it's slotted as a mule for the Gravitational Anchor set bonuses, swap it for Absolute Amazement in Seeker Drones.

 

The build could use some fine tuning. For example, slots were added to Hover and Group Fly, Soaring IO set slotted for +1% recovery bonus. Putting those extra slots in Stamina would provide better end recovery, sacrificing maybe 1-2 mph fly speed.

 

Mids' seems kind of wonky. It's not displaying defense with FFG and Protector Bot buffs when I view it. You're probably softcap to all positions/damage types without Scorpion Shield. FFG +19%, T2 pets +15%, Maneuvers +5%, Weave +6%, Steadfast/GladArm +6% = +51% def.  Your pets too. FFG +19% def, Maneuvers +5%, T2 pets +13%, Edict/CtA +10% = +47% def.

 

It's a good build and will perform well. Awesome job for a first attempt!

I too have issues with Mids as of late - not showing things like Protector Bot buffs or the resistance boosts from Incarnates (but it does show Agility def boosts)

Thank you for your help.

 

I'm trying to import the build as a copy paste. It's only showing me the bots.

I only redid the slotting for the pets. For some reason, it kept giving me error messages (Similar to the below) when trying to make changes to your build. I ended up just wiping it.

 

 

With Intuition Radial incarnate active, all pet damage should be at +114.99% with that slotting.

 

 

[Suspicious Activity]

Strange... I don't have a clue why it's doing that.

 

If I read correctly, only the slotting needs to be fixed? No other powers to revise?

Power choices are subjective. If you can get to where you want to be in terms of defense, recharge, end recovery, resistances etc, just choose additional powers that will make the build fun for you.

 

Like I said, I don't think Scorpion Shield is really needed on your build. A lot of people swear by Bonfire. Detonator is useful since it uses the exploding pet's slotting for its acc/dam stats. It can be effective with a single slot. I don't think Repair is that bad since it's full HP and endurance for a pet and can mule Preventive Medicine +absorb proc. Some peeps like Burnout for double Traps or attacks for a ScrapperMind.

 

It will be trial and error. Make a build, play it, change what doesn't work or isn't needed and repeat. There's probably several threads talking about Bots/Traps that delve deeper into power picks.

[Suspicious Activity]

Thank you, I appreciate it!

[kiramon]

I think this might serve you better overall.

You'll be able to contribute meaningful damage overall -- your proc damage will be pretty good too. I do think you'd be better off with something other than Intuition, but that's fine. Oh, and grab ageless over the heal.

 

Please note the FF in Bonfire should be SA KB>KD

Wow this looks fun. Thank you!

[kiramon]

I didnt notice that equip robots gives the protector bots and the battle drones heavy laser burst (which has knockback). You may want to switch them back to KB->KD if they knock your aoes out of the assaults burn patches.

 

[kiramon]

If you ever get bored, TA is superrrr fun with bots.

 

Super fun (but probably want Cardiac or something cuz it can drain through ageless)
