So, rolled Staff/SR, been leveling him solo through TF's and Ouros and whatnot. Up to 48 with mostly commons. Currently have Weapons Mastery for concept... but the pain of using any attack outside of Staff and missing both Staff and Assassin's Focus stacks means I'm swapping over to Body Mastery.

No need for Guarded Spin/Elude, since I'm 49%+ to all.

Lastly, Eye of the Storm, Serpent's Strike, and Sky Splitter are placeholder sets, which will be replaced by the appropriate 5 slot of purples (not using Dam/Rech), once I get to 50.

Currently have 2 wasted bonuses, will have only 1 extra 10% Regen when I get the purples.

How can I make this better?

BBC code wouldn't work, had to figure out what to do to make this all appear with new Mids.

I can't seem to open the build for some reason. Using Mids' 2023.9.605. Try to copy/paste or drag/drop the Mids' file into the forum. By the way, you going to form an MM or a Stalker supergroup like back in live? I'm in if you are.

Swap the slotting between Health and Physical Perfection. Health has a higher base regen (+40% vs +20%), a Panacea set will give your character more regen.

 

If you do keep the slotting in Health/PP the way it is, swap Regenerative Tissue with a lvl 50 Numina's heal IO. The +12% regen set bonus plus higher Health stat will provide more +regen then RT. 

 

Somehow the build has two Reactive Defense +res uniques in Agile and Dodge. Will only be able to slot one.

 

I would take Guarded Spin even if the +def portion isn't needed. AoE on any Stalker is welcome. Also I believe AoE, hitting more targets, gives a better chance for BU insta-charge.

 

With Superior Mark of Supremacy BU recharge, I wonder if it's worth fully slotting Gaussian's. The build is still softcap without it.

 

Well regardless, I'm sure your build will perform well. It has more +dam res and +regen than what I have on my StJ/SR, and I think my build is pretty good. I went for more +dam and procs than anything else.

I would trade the Body Mastery pool for Weapon Mastery. You can still pick up Physical Perfection on the way to Exploding Shuriken. Epic AOEs are a great opportunity to get additional AOE into your build. More AOEs, more chances at Build Up resets, like @StrikerFox mentioned.

Interesting... so integrating Exploding Shuriken for additional AoE and BU resets, and maintaining stacks of Physical, versus spending them on Sky Splitter? (obviously, using Eye of the Storm will do so...)

Makes me want to consider holding onto Weapon Mastery (bonus, more in line with character concept) and potentially even DROPPING Sky Splitter from the rotation and/or build.

 

Time to play City of Theory, again.

Agile shows Kismet on my end.
Health gets the globals for exempting purposes... IIRC, you lose the globals if you lose the power, right? If not, 100% makes sense, due to this being a 50 respec, not a leveling build.
Guarded Spin is slow and cone... Ew. But I get the logic. Not sure it'll make the cut... also PBAoE sets are jank.
Gaussians' in Build Up was extra slots (a build with EXTRA!?) and extra Def insurance for higher level foes.

Gonna put together a new build, with some tweaking.

Question: I've seen so many builds like this now to ignore...  How do you get around? You run everywhere? I think I like this build but def. taking super jump instead of assault.

Typically Ninja Run, Beast Run, or Athletic Run. Though some people will buy jet packs and fly around, just resigning themselves to top off at the S.T.A.R.T. vendors before Dr. Quarterfeld. You can use the rocket surfboard, flying carpet, or void disc too, now that they suppress toggles instead of turning them off.

I grab one of the runs from a START vendor on all my toons... Guess it'll just be assigned Athletic (And stance swapped via Tailor to the right one) now, thanks to the NPE changes.

That+Sprint works pretty damn well in most zones. I also abuse base teleporters in my cottage SG (Note, need to add Striga to the Co-Op portal), and the ferry/train/portal systems in the maps.

Eventually, I'll buy the Mission/Base/Team Teleporters on a toon... but they're very much an afterthought.

My line of thinking - travel powers are dead power picks/mules. I take them for concept builds only... They do nothing to help me do anything to progress in the game, because they're non-viable in combat scenarios. So, I'd rather take a combat power.

Edit: Also, specifically on this toon - I've extra movement speeds from several sources... I'm almost as fast as travel-powered toons. Essentially, it doesn't add up to enough of a detriment to take a few seconds longer to get to a mission.

For Super Reflexes specifically the sorcery pool is very nice. Spirit Ward is a good mule for Preventive Medicine: Absorb and Mystic Flight is good for Winter's Gift: Slow Resistance. Then you've got Rune of Protection open.
