Looking for Tanker Electric Armor / Broad Sword Build

[Starfira]

We haven't played City of Heroes in years and didn't make it too far in the original game. My brother created a Tanker on Homecoming purely for the aesthetic looks he liked Electric Armor / Broad Sword. I was trying to find a build guide to help give him an idea what powers would be good to select like I found for my Fire/Fire blaster, but it looks like he ended up choosing something not on the meta, since, so far, my search has come up short. Does anyone know of such a build, or could give recommendations on powers to select for it? It would be most appreciated it! Thank you!

From this thread - You could take two of my builds - Alpha Infinitum for Electric Armor and Paladin Infinitum for Broadsword and mash them together.   If you have trouble let me know and I will help out.   

 

The electric armor is res capped to all but 2 or 3 categories if memory serves. 

Edit. It is - see screenshot.

 

Hope this helps.

I really appreciate you taking the time to respond! I'm still learning the ropes here, but will definitely take a closer look when I have time later this week and may have additional questions. Thank you!

Anytime, I actually had a few extra moments and put this together.

Would I be able to just swap into katana with that elec/broadsword and keep all the same sets? It looks like it works in mids but I have no idea what I'm doing

That's all there is to it.   As long as you keep the resistance/defense numbers in that range - you should be good to go.
