Brain Bomb Psi/Atomic Blapper?

[The_Warpact]

Ok I don't play blasters, could never get into them just because. But, have an idea and really I should try to pursue it. Plus, I like psi and rad so why not at least try, since all my other blaster attempts have failed miserably.

 

So my questions do you try shooting for s/l cap on def/res or just wing it like a dominator?

I've been working on a build for the past hour and I'm getting no where. Because, of metabolism do I just shoot for one or the other (def/res) and go for a high regen?

What's something I should try for, other than damage, damage, damage. Are the ATOs any good, slot them low to take advantage of Defiance?

 

Any ideas?

Ok so this is where I am at on the build.

My main is a psy/atom blaster. I am really hoping they tune psychic primary as it just doesn't perform in PvE as well as most other sets. It has very little aoe and rather long animation times, as well as slow traveling powers that noticeably take forever to reach targets. I love the toon though and can do anything any other blaster can if not as efficiently.  If you look a few threads above there are two builds posted. My original build that has capped Def. And a requested build that shafts Def a bit for more overall damage.

 

The toon really is fun, but don't expect an ice/fire level of destruction.

Yeah I have since passed up on the toon and have shelved it. Another blaster bites the dust...
