Elec / Energy build request please.

[Macrabre]

Just got my first sentinel to 50. I want to do more / better with her. Any builds or recommendations would be awesome to see and talk about. I like flying / hover and prefer to stay mid ranged / ranged. Please help me. I have not found much in the forum search.

 

I am also very curious about Elec / Bio too. Please tell me more.

This is what I'm currently running on my Elec/Bio. It's a lot of fun and very sturdy (I run almost exclusively in Offensive mode). Other than the ATOs, it's a pretty inexpensive build.

Thank you soo much for sharing this! I never considered throwing Dark into the mix for I like it! What would you suggest rearranging / dropping for hover and fly while still keeping viable?

The obvious choices would be Combat Jumping and Super Jump.

I would personally say that electric/energy does best being in melee range. One of the things that it can do extremely well is drain endurance from mobs and it has enough powers that cause -recovery to keep that endurance floored. Enemies without endurance can't attack (although they will attempt to run around a lot). Since you're using /energy as the secondary, you would want to be in melee range to get the benefit of Power Drain as well (this also drains endurance and pairs nicely with Short Circuit). I'll upload the build that I last used and settled on for my elec/energy Sentinel. 

 

As a side note, if you plan on soloing a lot then you may want to replace Lightning Field with Chain Fences to prevent mobs from running around when they are sapped of endurance. If you plan on teaming a lot, they'll die quick enough or you'll have other controllers/dominators on team to not need Chain Fences.
