BladeDragon80's Build Compilation Thread

bladedragon80

So, yeah, I figured I've got builds sitting around the forums and wanted to compile them down. To give people a place to go for stuff that while I'm not the best but have at least tried to test things out and see how they go.

I'll note that I'm going to go in order and if it needs updating, willl try to note it. It's a compilation of things that I've found fun. Everything here will be Freeform as well, which means you might see some pure sets and might see some that just branch out.

NOTE: These are not min-maxed builds. These are fun, sometimes themed builds that are designed for that. If you want min-maxed, this is not the thread to go to.

CREDITS: Definitely the Discord. Especially Vexx who has entertained my madness. On the forums here, flowcyto has also been a big help and again entertained my madness. Big thanks to those two and the Discord folks who have not verbally shot me full of holes yet.

Build List In Order:

Tranquil Aka - Unarmed Martial Artist that Grows as you draw foes into his tranquility.
Super Sentai Builds - You remember that Lockbox? Yeah, we had some fun. Go Go Power Rangers Champions Edition.

Tranquil Aka is a build that came out of a desire to make an Ultraman inspired build. With Champions Online lacking an acceptable ranged attack, I decided to go another way. In the mentioned franchise there is now three that do one thing good and I embraced it. Space Martial Arts. Credit for the beginnings of this goes to Ravyn Fallenstar on the Discord for showing me how Dodge mechanics work.

This is a dual passive build designed to both bring mobs to one spot and to hit hard as you want. I managed to get a pair of great costumes and a transformation that completed the feel.

Gearing:
Surprisingly this ended up a balanced gear setup that I'm not finished with yet. You have quite a few uses for all three of the Super Stats. Constitution keeps you alive, Strength is your damage Toggle Form, and Dexterity is your defenses/critical chances. You definitely want Cost Discount on this build or maximum energy extenders. This will allow you to get off Devastating Strike and use your maintains to full advantage. Dodge/Avoidance gear will also help you at the start of the fight and maintaining that high Dodge chance.

Combos:
Multiple Targets: Sword Cyclone into mob -> Thundering Kicks x3 -> Sword Cyclone, repeat until 8 stacks of Enraged. Continue Thundering Kicks, use One Hundred Hands, occasional Dragon Uppercut or full charged Mighty Kick.
Single Target/Bosses: Thundering Kicks x3 -> One Hundred Hands -> Dragon Uppercut/Mighty Kick (full charge) for buffing/debuffing.
After that: Thundering Kicks x3 -> Mighty Kick (full charge) -> Dragon Uppercut (tap) -> repeat w/ Devastating Strike replacing DU as energy allows.

Notes: I'm proud to say that I've Dodged through the Ape's yellow ground slam/wire frame once with it and Dino I only really worry about the wire frames. Not tried main tanking but if someone does use this for it, please let me know the results. Final gearing is slow!

Super Sentai Builds

Small story on this one. I loved the weapon skins on the Sentai Lockbox. And well, it's Freeform. It's Champions. Build and play how you want to play is a good motto. The result? This thread. I think this is the one time when a lot of us on the forums were all in the same mind set and it just went from there.

My personal used one for a character named Greatman is below. I highly encourage checking the others above out. We had some great builds for Heavy Weapons, Dual Blades, Single Blade, Fighting Claws, and Munitions come out of that madness.

Gearing: Still being worked on. I love it, but had other builds occupying my time. It's great fun to use, however.

Use: Your guns are your pullers. Bullet Hail to bring them in, then Eye of the Storm to protect and aggro. Viper's Fangs to help keep and debuff for your main attacks like Dragon's Wrath, Bladed Fury, and Eye of the Storm. Arc of Ruin debuffs with Skullcrusher for wider and being the member that pulls out that big old weapon. Once you get to enough stacks, let the claws fly with Bladed Fury. All you need is exploding monsters to make it look like you were just in a sentai episode.

Notes: Vexx helped with this one a lot. Besides Bladed Fury you can substitute Whirling Dragon Strike for a lunge instead. It applies a nice debuff, is a lunge, and can generate some threat!
