Exactly, that's why I'm calling BS without pictures.

I am confused on the new drop rate, please someone explain it in stupid terms?

Ice slows and lowers To Hit

Scrappers don't use temporary powers, inspirations, or any outside buffs. Using Inspirations can allow you solo anything in this game reasonably fast.

I am all for these power sets!

I don't have that many but I share accounts some times and it works out pretty well.

Fire does more damage and dark is a lot more survivable, depending on your playing ability and budget either one will suffice for whatever you want to do.

That is true and thematically works better then in dull pain. I wish I could data mine to see what percentage of scrappers are regeneration, that would definitely help with the pitch. I can say that observation that Regeneration does make up a large portion of the scrapper secondary choice when making a character. I do see a lot of regeneration scrappers more so then others, but that could be one of those, hey I own a honda and I see a lot of hondas but I don't see many other *insert here* statements.

I need hard numbers!!!

I have this horrible problem, I cannot stop buying stuff, I am constantly seeing deals and saying "Hey I might need that in the future, let me buy it now while it's cheap." So I've reached 2 billion once and never got there again lol.

What was the original change?

I flipped Nethergoat one time into the stratosphere, he didn't like that very much.

This is my current build and he can take a beating.

Electric would be pretty interesting though, it'll need some inventions to make it beefy though.

I don't know BeeKeeper Shields isn't going to fair well in PvP. You're better off in just playing PvE with your shield scrapper, other wise I'd roll a super reflexes or a regeneration scrapper.

It is dependent on the type of enemies you are fighting. For harder targets I would say Fire/Shield would be great but for more AoE I would say Spines/WP will do it.

I find it fitting for her to be a brute, you can call the fury bar the wrath of a woman scorned bar.

Thanks! I got a new graphics card and it is crashing my computer and I cannot figure out why lol.

If I do recall correctly the highest dps chain is Incinerate -> GFS -> Cremate. I don't know the numbers on it though, anyone care to comment?

I bet they're going to replace Jacob's Latter with something else. I hope

Ugh all this talk of playing shield scrappers is making me sad, my computer is being fixed again

Is this going to be your second build?

Here are some changes I made, more recharge, and more defense. Permanent hasten and near permanent drain psyche.

I like SD so far but he's still pretty low in levels so I can't really comment.

Beekeeper post up your build so I can have a look, I can only recommend trying to slot for defense bonuses.

Well with current PvP the only thing that Spines has over other primaries is its range. It's secondary effect of slows is not noticeable anymore and with everyone having resistances it's toxic damage isn't really all that great.
