Wait!

Working on a different build. Is the Panacea Chance for HP/End an always-on bonus as well? Or will I need to slot that into a toggle/passive?

Werner that Endurance usage almost gave me a heart attack. If your Cardiac Alpha boost can mostly negate that, I am seriously impressed! I might have to try using some of the slotting in that build for my Dark/Dark.

Thanks!

/thread over

Is the Gladiator's Armor 3% Defense an always-on bonus like the Luck of the Gambler 7.5% Recharge? Or will I need to slot the IO into a toggle/passive?

I've always been amused with the sign that says "Stop The Lord Of Dance":

Fireball has a slightly faster animation casting time, but Ball Lightning has -Endurance. Both of those small advantages for me get filed under nice to have, but ultimately don't have any weight on my decision to pick either.

Ball Lightning and Fireball both have a DoT component. Ball Lighting DoT is guaranteed, I think. I do believe that even without the DoT on Fireball, said power is still superior.

That would be Judgment. Can't wait for those!

I'd say if you need to save on power picks then take the AoE from Mu Mastery. If you don't, take Fireball from Blaze Mastery.

I figured the full set of Gaussian was excusable because it gives good Recharge enhance values.

Looks good. Have fun!

Here you go! First thing is: Would you be willing to give up your travel power and use Ninja Run + Sprint instead? These days I never make any builds with travel powers (unless for theme) and don't miss them one bit. I've moved some things around and got you to S/L/F/C/E/N softcapped Defense with 1 foe in Melee. This will be a very sturdy build without going into extreme expense. Could use more Recharge, but with the Rare and Very Rare Alpha boosts on their way with Issue 19.5 that would definitely help out. Getting the 45% Recharge/33% Heal Spiritual boost would apply the ED ignored Healing portion (22%) on top of Dull Pain so you'd be closer to the HP cap. With just the Uncommon you're probably already at perma-Dull Pain. Endurance won't be a problem if you're not against eating a blue Inspiration once in a while.
