    I've had Hellions run half way across AP to get away from me. That was at level 1. The devs should do something about the fear effect.

    I'm working on my first Fire/Kin and was hoping to get a few opinions on the below posted build. The reason I chose Psi over Stone/Fire is because I'm planning to farm with it and the extra radius of Psionic Tornado will really help out, I think. Plus, I farm at 0x8 for drops so once per mob should do the trick. Anyway, let me know what you guys think and if there's anything I could change to make it better! Thanks.

    One thing to note about Psi Tornado is that is does have a larger radius. I dunno about everyone else, but I have definitely noticed mobs are a lot more scattered now.
  4. SkylineGTR
    What's wrong with building for some S/L defense? I understand the 'more recharge!!!' side of it, but to me, it just makes more sense to build for both. I was thinking of leveling a Fire/Kin (I don't have one, lol) and figured maybe about 35% S/L with about 70% recharge would do the trick.

    EDIT: Also, why Psionic Mastery? Faster AoE and FF Procable + Mez clickie? Hmm.. and the AoE has a nicer radius than Fissue/Fire Ball.
  5. SkylineGTR
    If you can get Mids' to work, try something like this..

    It has 71.3% recharge, 586% regen and 33.08% melee defense.

    With the way Charged Brawl is slotted, it would do 1.5 more points of damage over a Crushing Impact: Acc/Dam. Your Accuracy would go up from 133.3% to 136.8% with the Crushing. Let's take a look at that 8% regen bonus. How much is it helping you? With it, you'd regenerate 25.6 HP/s and without it 25.0 HP/s.

    EDIT: Take a look at Chain Induction. It needs some Accuracy.

    Money isnt an issue

    Thanky kindly!
    Look at Smashing Haymaker(Melee Damage), Reactive Armor(Resistance), Enfeebled Operation(Immob), Lethargic Repose(Sleep), Recified Reticle(To Hit Buff). There are more, but these are pretty cheap. Reactive Armor can be expensive depending on the market.

    Also, pick up a Steadfast Protection: Resis/Defense.

    Level 1: Critical Hit
    Remove one of those Pounding Slugfests and put the slot on CI. Then replace them both with either a Nuc Exposure or a 50 Acc/Dam IO. On Boxing, replace the Kinetic Combat: Dam/End/Rech with the Kinetic Combat: Knockdown bonus. You'll rarely use Boxing enough for that kind of influence to be worth it. Not to mention, it's a pretty weak power. Everything else seems pretty good.
  9. SkylineGTR
    In my experience, Defense based sets have a much better time taking on AVs. My vote goes to SR.
  10. SkylineGTR
    More recharge, regen, hp and a tad better melee degense/end drain.

    Same here unless I'm going for some damage bonuses. Then they get 5 slots.

    Revised my build just a bit. I had Fire Blast over Melt Armor, but I rarely use FB on my other Scraps and Tanks. So I 2 slotted Melt Armor for some HP and 4 slotted Char (replaced from RoF) with Basilisk for 7.5% rech instead of 6.25%.

    Yeah you have to go in an edit it. Here's how..

    Options < Advanced < Database Editor < Click Main Database Editor

    Under 'Group' select 'Scrapper_Defense'

    Under 'Set' select 'Shield_Defense'

    Under 'Power' double click 'Phalanx_Fighting'

    A box will open up. Select the 'Effects' tab

    Double click '3.75 Defense(Ranged) blah blah blah' It's the second to last on the list.

    Another box will open. On the left side, look down to 'Affects' and choose 'None" from the choice box.

    Click OK, Save and close out. All should be well again.

    (Sorry if this explanation sucked, lol)
  14. SkylineGTR
    Okay, here's what I've come with. Soft capped to Melee and Ranged. 44.43% to AoE. I could soft cap AoE, but I'd have to use 5 slots of Miracle on True Grit. I'd lose 35hp and that's more important to me than 1.88% AoE. Let me know what you guys think. I'm sure I missed something on it, lol.

    Still working on my Mids build. It's a little tough to soft cap when taking Fire Ball. Also, Cremate or Incinerate? I'm leaning towards Incinerate. Could also get both and skip GFS. I've heard the 'FS-Cremate-Incin-FS' chain is pretty effective. Might have their order mixed up?

    It's supposed to be due to Spine -rech secondary effect. Once you have nerfed their recharge too much, and they do not have an attack to fire, they start running, and come back once they can attack you. At least that's what I was told.

    That's the reason I really prefer my Spine/Invuln over my Spine/DA : with Invuln's strong taunt aura I do not have this issue at all and can fight any type of enemy, keeping all the critters always close to me and maximizing the dmg from my AoEs.

    I guess Spine/Fire, Spine/Elec have the same problem. But not all the players suffer from that, at 50 I guess most Spine/x go through +0 minions/lieuts too fast for the problem to occur (notice they do not start to run at once you attack, it's only like 15 sec after).
    Yeah, once I start attacking a mob with my Spines/Fire, I've got about 15 sec to kill them before they spread. It can be quite irritating at times, lol. I might have to look at /Invul for Scraps, btw.

    True and Elec has some extra KD that Fire would lack.

    It really makes a difference on the recharge side, and your Shield Charge comes back faster
    Damn.. that is a pretty good point. I swear by the FF on my SS toons. Does it work in Shield Charge? Even if it did, I guess it wouldn't be that useful on a 30 second recharge.

    Alright I think I'm gonna go Elec or Fire/Shield/Blaze. I wish Thunder Strike had a larger radius and Chain Induction would still chain off a target it kills, though. Fire only really has FSC for AoE, but it's great damage and recharges fast. Not to mention, it also has an effective ST attack chain for bosses. Soooo Fire/SD/Blaze it is! I'll post up a build in a little bit and see what y'all think.

    My SG mate has a Spines/WP that just wont quit....does stupid constant AoE and since the WP set is mostly passive, it's a breeze for him. If it ever gets overwhelming, he just tosses out Energy Torrent (all knock down, no knock back) and lets RTTC do it's thing. Spines/WP gets my vote for Solo...that could just be because there are 3,840,028 Elec/SD scrappers out there now too. XD

    My 2nd vote would be for Fire/SD....more burst damage thanks to AAO+SC -> FSC, and pretty easy to softcap on a farming only build. Incinerate+GFS is usually all that's needed to finish off a Boss after that. The going gets a little slow when SC is down though, so I would build for +rech to keep that up as often as possible.
    Yeah I'll be planning to solo only. I'm seeing 3 votes for Fire/Shield so far and now that I think about it, it would also have Fire Ball. So FSC -> SC -> FB and move on might be pretty effective.

    Does it do pretty well in keeping them from running? I had that problem on my Spines/Fire.

    I'm trying to decide on a farmer. Something other than Fire/Kin. What kind of Scrapper do you use to farm with? There are just so many options that I can't decide.

    Here's my list so far:
    Fire/Fire
    Fire/SD
    Fire/Elec
    Elec/Fire
    Elec/SD
    Elec/Elec
    Spines/Fire
    Spines/Elec

    I'm leaning on Elec/SD or Fire/SD mainly for a quick 1+2 punch that will give them no time to run. But a damage aura might be more useful... So please, let me know your favorite Scrapper to farm with and maybe I can narrow it down to one.

    The 8% bonus from Pounding Slugfest isn't worth it. Add that slot to Incinerate for a Touch of Death set. That'll put you up to 26.1% Melee defense. It'll also add another 20.1hp which is worth a lot more than 8% regen.
  24. SkylineGTR
    Trade out RotP for Hasten. I would give Hasten no less than 2 slots and I think the +Regeneration unique is on a 120 second timer. So it would be better to slot into a passive power like Health. Also, you should try to fit in a Miracle Unique. Then I'd gut Ring of Fire in order to get some extra slots. Those are just a couple observations after skimming through it. I'm sure I missed a few other things, but it looks good overall.

    Edit: Try to give BU another slot or two.
  25. SkylineGTR
    I did the same thing with my Spines/Regen. When ED hit, I was pretty upset about the destruction of his regen rate. So when IOs were released, I went on a mission to get the absolute most regen out of him. Honestly, he's pretty damn tough with so much HP/s.
