concept help for returning player

kage1822

hey guys & gals, I just returned to game, haven't played since months before the PA revamp, and need help/suggestions on a thematic concept I have, and not sure where to start as it uses 2 main frame works, and both have great powers.

the combination is ranged TK and Elec, and want to make it a dodge/avoid beast

thanks in advance

This topic should prob be in the builds and roles forum, since its basically a build request.

Anyways, here's a potential setup for mixing Ranged TK + Elec+ heavy dodge:

thanks, any idea how I should gear for it? I mean for the TK heavy build.

I'd gear it mostly for Ego and Con w/ that SS setup, w/ a bit of End and Rec on the side for energy. Ya can get crit% mostly from crit rating and 6th Sense.

what about dodge & avoidance?

also, I posted it here, because I didn't see a builds forum or is it a sub-category under another forum?

Its under the Combat & Powers forum, though this thread concerns powers (and is on Live and not PTS I assume?) so ya could also have posted this there as well.

As for dodge/avoid: since ur using R3 LR I'd skip all avoidance rating, since avoidance diminishes harshly and R3 LR puts you heavily into that DR curve. Gearing for more dodge% via dodge rating is still good, though ya don't want to have low maxHP either.

Another variation on the same theme, with more dodge and avoidance but losing some defense.
