Lasers + Force builds?

horripilantehorripilante Posts: 320 Arc User
Was looking for advice on builds mixing Force and lasers, wich i think mostly belong to P.A.
Dont have anything concrete, but have never used those power trees.
Mostly play as DPS, but i assume Force fields goes more with CC or some sort of supports

    Well, slotted PA powers will lock out all other power types when used, so I'm not sure if you want to go w/ that route, or try a non-slotted PA build (much less dps potential, but you can more freely use other powers and it's generally easier on energy). If you want an example to start with, though, here's a basic Beam-based slotted PA build, but w/ a few Force powers thrown in:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Ranged Damage)
    v3.44:36

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

    Talents
    Level 1: The Scourge (Con: 10, Ego: 10, Rec: 10, End: 8)
    Level 6: Worldly (Ego: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 9: Amazing Stamina (Rec: 5, End: 5)
    Level 12: Daredevil (Ego: 5, End: 5)
    Level 15: Quick Recovery (Con: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 18: Boundless Reserves (Con: 5, End: 5)
    Level 21: Ascetic (Con: 5, Ego: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Force Bolts
    Level 1: Concussor Beam (Rank 2, Rank 3)

    Level 38:
    Adv. Points: 33/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    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 (2/3)
    Guardian: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
    Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
    Vindicator: Focused Strikes (2/3)
    Vindicator: Mass Destruction (3/3)
    Mastery: Ego Mastery (1/1)

    The last power can be w/e ya want.

    You basically just run all three toggle slots (Eye Beams, Chest Laser_Recon Circuits, Concussor Beam), using Power Conversion if you need help w/ energy. EWave can help group up scattered mobs, since Eye Beam and Chest Laser have narrow AoE components. I added in Force Geyser for more Force rep, but it can also serve as a long-range CC option. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Con and End/Rec.
