Traps/pistol mass team buffing build

[Vadmac1991]

I want to make a Traps/Pistol def with the Stealth for invisibly, teleportation. And be super useful for high level TFs/iTrials. Anylme got some advice for a set up?

Traps is super useful, but not as a buff bot. It's one of the premier sets it the game for debuffing especially hard targets. But yes having fold space on a traps character is a great idea if you can fit it in. Invis can be achieved with superspeed and a stealth io in sprint, saving you the pool for leadership/tough as they get great modifiers being a defender.

With my DP Defender I did go with Stealth too for the added defense since I was skipping the Fighting pool.  You HAVE to take the Leadership pool on a fender, the values you get are far too good to skip on Assault, Tactics and Vengeance.  

 

As far as what all powers I take in DP I have Pistols, Swap Ammo, Bullet Rain, Executioner's Shot and Hail of Bullets.  I run pretty much exclusively Chemical Ammo for all of that -dmg unless there's nothing too dangerous then I'll switch to Fire Ammo.

 

Here's how I slot them: 

Pistols: Full set of Superior Defender's Bastion

Swap Ammo: Nil

Bullet Rain: 5 of the other Superior Defender set plus a Force Feedback proc

Executioner's Shot: 5 of Apocalypse and an Achilles Heel proc

Hail of Bullets: 5 of Armageddon and a Fury of the Gladiator -res proc
