Build Request for Rad/Dark Tank

Doogleburg · December 31, 2022

Hey all!

I have scoured the forums and discord for a recent Rad/Dark Build but cannot find anything thats less than a year old.
Anyone currently running this build that might share it with me in mids?

Also, thoughts on this combo? I haven't ran this build yet but it sounds like it may have potential?

twozerofoxtrot · December 31, 2022

I don't think it's very common, but it doesn't sound bad at all.

I don't have a build but I'd suggest slotting Siphon Life for damage instead of heals since you get Particle Barrier.

In fact, if you'd like to really crank damage, you have a lot of Proc potential in Dark with Siphon Life, Soul Drain, and Midnight Grasp, and likewise in Rad with Radiation Therapy and Ground Zero.

In fact, jumping into a group and chaining proc'd Soul Drain > Ground Zero > Radiation Therapy sounds awesome.

I run this combo on a proc'd out Scrapper. It hits like a dump truck made out of ICBMs. I'll see if I can't adapt it to a Tank version later.

I don't recommend skipping Touch of Fear. It procs really well and does a ton of AoE damage.

This girl hits like a truck and is one of my most played tanks (and I have 35 of them). You can make modifications based on your preference (her second build swaps out ToF for fully slotted Cross Punch to take advantage of +recharge and I tend to use that for solo TFs and harder content).
