Stone/Electrical Build Help

[Deathstrik3]

I'm currently working on leveling an Stone/Electric Tanker, but I can't seem to get mids to work. Does anyone have a build or general advice for this combination? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Forgot to note that I would like to use Granite, and am interested in even running it as the main toggle at higher levels rather than just a panic button.

Is there a reason you want to run granite primarily? It has a significant recharge and damage penalty. A stone tank can be made near immortal even without granite these days. Then again if it's for your concept enjoy.

Mostly for the concept. Though if I end up disliking how it feels too much I might move away from it.

I don't have a Stone/Elec, but most of the Stone Armor concepts from my "titular" tank, should be applicable.  I kept Granite, but only as an emergency button...

General concepts:

 

On this build, I put the tanker ATOs in the first two attacks.  They proc early and often.

SJ for travel and Combat Teleport for melee, so it doesn't matter if I'm in or out of Granite.  Could go Combat Jumping instead, for some addn'l defense, but once in Granite, you will be severely hampered in mobility.

Mud pots got the entire Avalanche set, but if you don't go the full set route, at least save room for the KD proc piece.  Another mitigation tool in the AOE.

Earth's Embrace takes resistance enhancements and gets three, including the Steadfast Def and Aegis Psi uniques.

Between Rooted and Health, all the heal uniques are used.  Three slotted stamina, because end can become an issue, when not in Granite, due to all the toggles.

Energy Mastery Epic for Physical Perfection and Focused Accuracy (I dislike being blinded).

 

I'd also note that, while it does have some pricey pieces in the build, judicious use of Crushing Blow and Doctored Wounds kept the overall cost down, without sacrificing survivability - which is my primary goal in this build.

 

Let us know how it goes!
