Help me rebuild my Munitions

Archived PostArchived Post Posts: 1,156,071 Arc User
edited September 2009 in Builds and Roles
So, my current munitions character has reached level 19 but he dies a lot just because he has little surviviability and if any other mobs are pulled 99% of the time im going down at somepoint unless I try and run.

I'm looking for survivability here and something that will help him take on multiple mobs with ease.

Heres the current build:

    If you want to take multiple mobs with ease, take minimines. Rocket is awful, to be honest.

    I would go with something like this as a base

    Minimines are still a bit OP, but I wouldnt expect them to be the end-all-be-all of munitions forever.

    My level 21 munitions has mini mines, force shield, and regen. Those are the essentials that keep me alive and killing things, everything else is just for added spice and flavor.

    Though with today's patch, TK shield would probably be a better pick up than the force one right now.

    With the boost to Assault Rifle in the patch notes, is Two-Gun no longer a solid pick? Should I retcon into AR?

    Yeah I have tried TK shield it works wonders. Good solid build. Thanks for the help guys.

    you have no passive defense, why? take regen or lightning reflexes. maybe even a block upgrade.

    Heres what I have been using, and finally just died on my first attempt (solo) on powned after the mini mine nerf. I think the only reason I died was because I really wasn't prepared for the damage and holds, and promptly marched right back in and dropped him after knowing what to expect.

    Take Sub machine gun burst rather than AR.

    Why you might ask?

    Cone damage, vs single target damage and since your power builder has a 50' range, the SMG is automatically in range. Later pick up the gat for ranged cylinder damage so you have a long range group killer too.

    Next, defenses!

    Sure regeneration is nice, but if you never think to block, it never comes into play. If you want a good semi-passive/semi-active defense get Personal Protection Field and rank it up to Rank 3, (as soon as you can.)

    It always reduced damage until the field is worn down, and when coupled with a block power it -radically- cuts down on you damage taken when in block mode. (Best of all its 360 degrees of protection, vs just front.)

    I'm using force shield block + force sheath in protector role + regen (protector = 20% damage mit and more energy from blocking on top of the double energy from force shield+linger, regen = heal in blocking)

    mainly cause I find in munitions I run out of energy and than have to either block or use gunslinger to build up, and force block is way the heck faster.

    but yeah a block + passive helps a ton, provided you do block whenever you are not attacking and when you see a charge up attack.

    I tend to start combat blocking for the energy gen/aggro alpha strike than go mini-mines > block >sonic device+lead tempest/ AR and rarely die.. but MA npcs can hurt vs. regen
