Fire/bestial build?

metalheadbeta

I'm not sure if these two powersets would really work well together but what I'm looking for is a primarily bestial melee build with some fire support abilities. A heal or a shield, perhaps. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Not much synergy there, since nothing in Fire bleeds and Bestial doesn't apply CFlames (unless you have Moonstruck unlocked), afaik. But you could maybe throw in something like Absorb Heat w/ the Wisp's CFlame's adv, I guess. Can also use Fire's block enhancer and/or its AO (Immolation), just to get more Fire rep, and w/o disrupting the Bestial framework that much:

Fire's self-res seemed fitting, but the last power can be w/e ya want.

The main single-target rotation is to alternate between Shred and Massacre. AoE can be done w/ a mix of Venomous Breath and Shred's cleave. Pounce can be used as a lunge, but also to help CC, ground flying enemies, and/or to put up another self-heal. Gears mostly for Str, w/ some Con and End/Rec.

Could also just a dd a few fiery auras to the build, for appearance/theme. That's the easy way to add fire

Well, he said he wanted some Fire support abilities, but yeah Fire auras would def add to the look, and could help make up for not having many attacks from the Fire set mixed in.
