Updated Earth/Storm Build


Tacheyon

Recommended Posts

Hi Everybody!

 

I was playing my Earth/Storm character and realized I hadn't updated it in a while (loosing a lot of powers on those TFs).  And I noticed that there doesn't appear to be anything in the forums for the last 8 months.  So I threw together a cheap build that looks like it could work.  I didn't bother maxing out positional defense as between Earthquake and Hurricane (yes I took it very late) that will cover what I am missing.

 

If someone has a suggestion to make it better, as I am not an expert on builds (although not a total noob) I would appreciate the input.

I'm on my phone but I'll take a longer look when I get home.

  • Freezing Rain - I read mixed things with slight negative overall for using procs.  Might be a ymmv sort of thing.
  • I like to put a Range IO in QS in particular.  Can't count the number of times that's let me drop the patch from around the corner vs having to step out and risk return fire.  Which with my high recharge minimal defense builds of the past could be painful.
  • Weave - These days I find myself trying for 4 Shield Wall for the neg nrg resist.  Probably wouldn't do it unless I could find a spot for the LotG special.

More later
