SR/SS Build Recommendations/Guide

[Netherzone]

Hi there!

 

So I'm trying to create a SR/SS tanker but I have no clue how to build it out. I would play with Mids, but it doesn't seem to work on my laptop (curse you Apple!).

 

Does anyone have any guides/guidance on how I should slot my tanker?

 

 

I'd greatly appreciate the help!

I'd say it'll be tricky because Rage from SS causes - 20% defense for 10s every 2 minutes (every minute of your double stacked). Other armors can deal with it easier with resistance, heals, or click powers, but losing 20% defense on SR would be tough.  But hey, maybe someone around here has figured out how to make it work!  Good luck.

Here you go, with a double stack Rage, you'll be within parameters(before any debuff hits). Though I suggest you don't Stack Rage, less you got some backup to assist.   But as a SR you'll also get stack Resistance buff as your HP drops so that should help you out also.  You'll want your status protection on Auto-Fire anyways, so you'll have to watch your Rage & Conserve Power clickies.

Rage crashes are bad, but, just build for 65% defense 😄

 

Endurance will be a definite problem so stock up on Recovery Serums until level 50 nad be sure to place all endurance uniques in place sooner rather than later.

I appreciate the build but how do I view it? I can't use Mids (If that's what the file is for.)

Why can't you use Mids?  Yes you need Mids.

Pretty sure it only works on Windows. However I don't know if the OP is on another OS.

I followed the guide for downloading Mids on iOS for Macs and it didn't work for me. Kept giving me an error and didn't know how to move past that.

 

I just ended up opening the .mds file in a text editor and manually read each power/enhancement. I appreciate the build though! It looks pretty good.

What I do to see JJ's builds, is to right click on the mid's file and choose to open with textedit. You can see the build quite cleanly. It works well.   This what @Grimjackal Told another person who had Mid's issue on a mack.

Question... evasion has an AoE taunt, is there a reason to have both "Taunt" and "Evasion"? The only difference that I can see is "Taunt" lasts for 23 seconds base versus "Evasion" having a 2.4 second taunt.

Taunt is an AoE Ranged ability that auto hits on PvE mobs ...

Since you can't use mids, here's a screenshot.

 

This gets you enough recharge for double stacked rage and perma hasten, over 65% m/r/aoe defense to handle the crash, and good resists across the board.  Also gets Darkest Night which is great for survival.  Hand Clap for mitigation and Elude in case you need an Oh S*@t button (toggle drop from sapper or something).

 

The endurance ratio isn't great but it's not horrible.  You could pick up Agility and/or Ageless Incarnates to fix that.  Also, no travel power, but you could drop Hand Clap if you want.  I wouldn't, because it's great and sprint, ninja, quickness is pretty fast.
