Multiple Theme Builds Help

ealford1985

Theme: Energy Sword Jedi
Powers: Lightspeed Blade, Lase Sword, Lightspeed Dash,
Optional: Ego Choke, Telekinetic Wave, Thunderstrike, Crushing Wave

Idea is of course a Jedi with his lightsaber who dabbles in telekinesis and lightning. Anything that I am screwing up on and recommended gear/mods (nothing above legion) I am level 30 but here is what I have so far:

Here's one way to build the theme w/ laser Sword as the focus. Uses Hybrid + AoPM for the extra energy and versatility:

Theme: Captain Planet Elemental (Fire, Earth, Wind, Water and Heart aka Telepathy)
Powers: This is tough as I can't decide which powers to pick. I do like the powers that have additional elements with them: Rimefire Burst, Fissure, Whirlwind. If I had to have a block I would use Stone Shroud.
Optional: Rebirth (as a Heart power)

Have not even really begun to make a power build. I am just stuck and can't even decide on a proper energy builder. Right now this is what my build looks like in the power department, but honestly I just need someone to take over for me because I am not able to decide.

Main single-target attack is LArc (w/ Ball of Lit to put up Negative Ions). Hurricane is ur main AoE. Other attacks can be weaved in for extra dmg/utility and to proc MSA. Gears mostly for Int and Con, and skips gearing for severity rating once it gets Dex Mastery.

Would replacing Conviction with the Fire Heal be a good idea? I'd like to get one more ice or fire attack in there. I know I have rimefire...maybe I'm asking for too much and stretching myself thin.

flowcyto

Well, Absorb Heat only works if ur w/in 25ft of the CF source, and you must have Clinging Flames up on the target. Given that and Rimefire's longer cd, Absorb Heat is not necc gonna be able to heal you all the time when its available.

ealford1985

Would Chilled Form be better than Concentration?

flowcyto

Chilled Form would change the stat focus to Dex, as Conc can scale w/ Int but Chilled Form can't. I'd prob stick w/ Conc and an Int focus cause MSA is also scaling w/ it, but either approach could work.
