Ranged Earth Build

jaazaniah1

A ranged DPS Earth build is about the last kind of character I can think to build at the moment. I also came up with a mostly tights based costume using some of the more recent costume pieces that I rather like; sort of an homage to the Eternals. I understand that the dps won't be top of the charts, but I believe it will still make a useful contribution at Endgame. Plus, the re-release of Earth mods might hint that Earth could see a revamp sooner, rather than later.

Yea, it looks okay for a ranged Earth build, esp since you're adding in Hurl for Demolish. I may get R2 of Tremor, since it has pretty good AoE coverage and dmg, and maybe drop R1 Fault Line (since it's kinda redundant), but it's up to you on what extra attacks you want to keep. MSA + Int SS is also possible when using Hurl.

Good to know that I'm on the right track. I wanted the adv. with the Root effect on Fault Line, so it does serve a bit of a different purpose than Tremor. I did consider it though. Just need 13 more white rocks now
