Help Me Reach the Softcap

[Glowman]

I've been running the below build and it's serving me well. Smashing/Lethal resist right where it needs to be. I enjoy fly and hover. However, taking a closer look at the build (using someone from the forum), I realize that he reached softcaps using non-attuned enhancment combines and I'm just not sure I want to drop that kinda inf to softcap my defenses. Any suggestions on what I could move around/do different to reach max resist/lethal, softcap defense, keep fly + hover (late game raiding), as well as the recharge speed I've got going on? Thanks!

I replaced Assault with Hurl.  You said late game, and this way you have a hold (Knockout Blow) and a range attack (Hurl) for LGTF.

Edited August 6, 2019 by BrandX

[Glowman]

BrandX, that looks great! Couple of questions.

 

1) In Pine's it's showing 90 psionic resistance? Is that correct?

2) What incarnate would you pair? Maybe end regen?

 

I would probably sub laser eyes for hurl for character concept, otherwise perfect for me!

[BrandX]

I'm only seeing 50% Psi Resist on my end.

 

As to which Incarnate to choose, tough call.  Cardiac for sure if you're having END Issues even after all that.  I know it's popular on Resist sets as well, but it'll only give you 4% to Resists on everything except PSI.

 

Out of all the options though...

 

Cardiac Core (resists and end red)

Agility Radial (more defense and recharge and the end mod aspect doesn't hurt you either)

or Resilient Radial (More resist and it enhances little things within the build as well...taunt, stun, +to-hit)

 

The rest is personal taste.
