I do understand the 'Frakenslotting ' but how do you sustain survivability ? 4* content implies barrier cycling amongst the team. I also play an electric/ninja, so I'll take a look at the build when I get home. I believe I went with a typed defense approach myself.

Yeh, it's a 4-star content build for 4-star TFs like LGTF, ITF, Aeon, etc. Like @SeraphimKensai said, these 4-star teams rotate permanent Barrier Cores and also stack defense buffs via (usually) 2 /cold corrs, or sometimes bubbles, time, etc. In PVE content you just chug purple def inspis which are super cheap on Auction House if you buy in bulk in advance and leave them in the AH or your in-game mail. You'll be surprised at the damage it puts out. My PVE elec/nin build (previous) was fine. The 1 sort of exception to 4-star builds that I made was keeping Short Circuit because I really like it these days as a proc-delivery bomb and AOE, in addition to BL. The damage of the build makes up for not having VS. My earlier PVE build is attached. With CJ/Weave/Manuevers/ScorpShield he got to ~ 33% S/L/E which was enough for 1 small purple insp to cap (assuming no other def buffs from team). Was fine but 4-star is much more aggressive.

Short Circuit is awesome. I haven't tried my elec/nin in 4 star content myself, but I'm usually rocking a fire/cold corruptor or a tank when I'm running advanced mode stuff.

Ki Push is great for knocking an enemy up into a wall or corner continually as your character blasts them to ... rrr... arrests them. Make it a cold blast character, and it makes sense to throw in a https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Blistering_Cold https://homecoming.wiki/wiki/Blistering_Cold:_Recharge/Chance_for_Hold Then you not only knock them into the wall or corner, but character might freeze them into a block of ice (hold them) as well while they continue the process of arresting their foe. If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore. (It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications) Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case. But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable. Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

Vex Ronin - Blaster (Electrical Blast - Ninja Training).mbd 44.17 kB · 2 downloads Sorry for the delay in response. This build only manages to softcap positional defenses when the Support Hybrid is up, so that's 2 min up, 2 min down. So when you're down, you're positional defense are around the mid 30's and not near or at non-incarnate softcap level of 45% If you are willing to slot several winter sets, both sets of ATO's, a little frankenslotting, and go to scorpion shield, you can chase typed defenses and get them to ±45% for all except toxic, and, psi without needing agility, barrier, or support to get the defense there. This frees you to go after ageless radial for more recharge (and higher dps) + debuff res, musculature for more damage, and assault for a hybrid for more damage again. That works well for non-advanced difficulty content.
