Devices


I've been using Telekinetic Maelstrom instead of Gigabolt, I don't remember why. The whole concept is just a sorcerer concept, anything that's magic elemental or otherwise would work if I should change this build. So that should give it a lot of flexibility. I suppose I should post my gear somehow as well








My primary utility doesn't have 2 of the mods it should, not sure what stats I would want. At the end of the day I just want to be able to do the end game content, eventually I will want justice gear. Thanks in advance!

If your goal is end-game stuff, then know that bringing weak Hybrid auras is generally frowned upon. I assume you want to focus on dps? If so, then you may just want to make a committed dps build, or at least a hybrid-dps build that uses something like R3 Invuln (if you don't mind the trade-off of having considerably lower base dps).

Anyways.. the build itself, outside of some outdated things like including ES/NM, has a buncha redundant AoE and not much of a single-target focus for boss dps. For ease of use, I may consider having Electricity as the main dps set, and maybe picking from other 'elemental' sets for theme when its not too inconvenient. Example dps build:

Super Stats
Level 6: Ego (Primary)
Level 10: Endurance (Secondary)
Level 15: Constitution (Secondary)

Level 9: Boundless Reserves (Con: 5, End: 5)
Level 12: Daredevil (Ego: 5, End: 5)
Level 15: Quick Recovery (Con: 5, Rec: 5)
Level 18: Worldly (Ego: 5, Rec: 5)
Level 21: Amazing Stamina (Rec: 5, End: 5)

Powers
Level 1: Electric Bolt
Level 1: Chain Lightning (Rank 2, Superconductor)
Level 6: Ionic Reverberation
Level 8: Stormbringer (Rank 2, Rank 3)
Level 11: Chilled Form
Level 14: Ball Lightning (Rank 2, Triplicity, Supercharged)
Level 17: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
Level 20: Lightning Arc (Rank 2, Rank 3)

Level 26: Resurgence (Rank 2)
Level 29: Ice Shield (Rank 2, Rank 3)

Level 35:

Specializations
Ego: Force of Will (2/2)
Ego: Insight (3/3)
Ego: Follow Through (3/3)
Ego: Sixth Sense (2/3)
Guardian: Fortified Gear (3/3)
Guardian: Ruthless (2/2)
Guardian: Find the Mark (3/3)
Guardian: The Best Defense (2/3)
Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
Vindicator: Focused Strikes (3/3)
Vindicator: Mass Destruction (2/3)
Mastery: Ego Mastery (1/1)

For single-target dps, uses Ball Lit and Chain Lit to put up NI and Superconductor, LArc as the main filler, and Ball Lit on cd to refresh both debuffs. Gigabolt, Ball Lit, and/or Chain Lit can also help w/ AoE. Grav Driver is there just to have a helpful group ult and burst dmg/CC cd. You could consider other things like a 2nd AO, a threat wipe, Nanobot Swarm, R1 Masterful Dodge, etc.. depending on your playstyle or priorities. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Con and End/Rec.
