AR/Mental Blaster

[BurgerSlave]

Trying my hand at crafting a blaster build. I decided to go off the beaten path and run with AR/Mental. I managed to get some decent defenses, although Melee is a bit light. Got okay resistances. And I think my damage and accuracy should be fine. But I'm hardly the expert here. But does this look okay?

Have you thought about maybe trying "mace" epic power pool for scorpion shield? I tend to try and do more defense then resistance since in my experience it tends to do better.

I'm not gonna go into detail a lot , there's too much. Drain Psyche needs to be perma- so you need hasten and it wants some heal in it, it'll heal you through damage taken

You need a ton of recharge bonuses but have 4 slotted powers like manticore in snipe that would help you get there.

Psy Shockwave is a heavy hitter. It wants 6 slots. M30 nade is superior to flamethrower in terms of what you can slot, when you get it, soft control.

Skip repulsion bomb and repulsion field you won't have the slots. Juts take personal force field and throw in a luck of the gambler 7.5%. Good panic button.

 

Without changing massive amounts of stuff (like swapping flamethrower for M30 nade) something a little closer to this. You have drain psyche so def/res/healing/endurance isn't an issue like it is on a lot of other secondaries so long as you can hit enough enemies with it.

 

Its late so i probably missed obvious stuff but i'm falling asleep.

 

Like your incarnates. I swapped a few of them. 

 

If i were to play one now i'd skip all def and res and rely on m30nade for drain psyche go for 50% slow res and as much kb protection as i could get. It would be very squishy.

 

And the last one, old skool agility build, toss in winter sets til defence sticks.
