Repost due to forum migration: critique my build: earth energy.

[Bokken]

Sine lost due to the migration, I am reposting this in hopes of whoever posted his/her build posts again... Anyone else if of course welcome to help me with my skill in enhancement-fu. 

 

ok. just hit 48. 🙂

 

Time to look at sets I guess.

I wa wondering if you all in your less finite wisdom can help me set up my build (I have all my  respecs ready).

 

Some points:

1. I am considering dropping power boost. Havent really seen any huge effect from it, not with domination going most of the time.

2. I know the build isnt optimized atm. This is what Im trying to get advice on.

3. I have chosen to not pick any purple sets at all at this time, just to get an inkling of what im looking at.

4. when picking now, I chose to try and maximize my damage (with +damage (all)) from sets. Also, for convenience and because I couldnt find anything better, I went for making my superjump/combatjumping faster/higher.

5. Melt armor, has been helpful in teams vs AV's, atleat I like to think it is... convince me otherwize if you can. 🙂

6. Nothing is holy. Hit me!

[blayzemaster]

I can't make a build right now, but in terms of critiques:

 

Why no chasing recharge for perma dom? It provides you with mez protection and massively helps your control numbers as it boosts the length of controls and allows you to one shot control bosses?

 

Energy Burst is you a good DPA attack, it needs to be fully slotted with a ranged damage set.

 

Animate Stone cannot benefit from Force Feedback +recharge, as pets cannot get recharge buffs. He also needs more damage boosts as your pets are quite useful. If you 4 slot him with Expedient Reinforcement you'll get another recharge set bonus.

 

Melt Amror isn't great as an epic power as the recharge is very long and the - Res is not that high. Equally you can only slot it for defense debuffs which by the time you get it you won't need too much since you'll have a lot of accuracy slotted in your powers and accuracy just acquired from chasing set bonuses.
