Slotting Stone Armor


TungstenShark

Recommended Posts

My first toon back on Homecoming was a Stone/Ice Tanker. I stopped playing before IOs went live so I had no idea what I was doing with slotting. Eventually I am going to want to IO out the build...how are folks slotting Stone? Do you just slot Granite and only run that? I enjoyed being able to use whatever toggles I needed while leveling depending on the content and not locked strictly in to Granite. What is the best way to slot to offset Granite's slow movement speed, and is it worth the slots to do so?

Definitely slot Luck of the Gambler: Defense/Increased Global recharge into 5 of your powers. That will give your +37.5% recharge boost...plus some defense.

 

As for the rest of the slotting, it might depend on what you want to accomplish. Personally, I focused on shoring up the one weakness, Psychic Resistance. So I went heavy on Impervious Armor. It costs 30 slots, but it will get you roughly 52.5% psy resistance and some psi defense, iirc. But honestly, I went that route only because I wanted to live through anything. You might have different goals. Other IOs I used were Aegis 5% Psy resistance, and the two defense IOs that give another combined 8% resistance.

 

If you need additional recharge, look into the Force Feedback proc. If you have any AoE attacks that do Knockback/Knockdown, that can be useful as it gives 5 seconds of 100% recharge boost.
