JoJoMonkey Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) I have been playing in mids and not quite sure where to go with Energy Armor. Its very mix on res and def and I think I am missing something. This was a first attempt, Any advice that EA would be welcome or slotting. Also on the fence for hasten as i can get a lot of LFG in there plus other procs This Hero build was built using Mids Reborn 3.4.7https://github.com/LoadedCamel/MidsReborn Click this DataLink to open the build!

drbuzzard Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 My basic advice is chase defense before you chase resistance. It's hard enough to softcap typed resistance when you're not also trying to chase resistance at the same time. Marginal improvements in defense which approach the cap should always come first. Honestly the one thing I don't understand is the 3 slotting of LotG all over the place. The 3 item bonus just isn't worth much and paying for a third is just a waste of resources. I usually go with 1 LotG global, 2 Def IOs 50. Sometimes I'll throw in a second LoTG defense instead of the base IO because the regen doesn't hurt, particularly if it's a regen set already (elec, dark, rad, regen). Also I can't find the gladiator's armor unique which is good for another 3% defense to all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meknomancer Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) Energy is an odd one, i wouldn't normally 6 slot full sets but in this case i do. If kb isn't a problem then i'd just build for softcap to the important stuff, make a bit of an effort to get some psi defence then put everything else into recharge and resistance. Sadly this doesn't leave anything for epics, i've played a few /nrg sents and always run out of slots for them which is a shame as i think sents get the best epics in game. I don't go overboard on defence, 45% suffices unless your intending to run out and solo itrials in which case i can see why you'd want to build them so high. Nova maybe better off with an eradication set in for the last bit of neg nrg defence.
