I noted in another thread that all these builds are great, but in order for many of them to work you have to be at a certain level -- and the problem with that is getting to that level in the first place. Even if you're planning on leveling through alerts, you still have to get through the Westside quests up to level 10, and not everyone has buddies they can rely on to get through those quests quickly.
So I'm wondering: What's the easiest leveling build out there? I'm assuming that you'll retcon the character into the build you actually want later, so actual concept doesn't matter: only steamrolling through the XP does.
I figure that right now, with the insane amount of DPS that Two-Guns Mojo does, the easiest build is a Munitions Dual Pistols build. I put one together up through level 30, to see if this fits:
PowerHouse (Link to this build)Name: Two-Gun Mojo Levelling BuildArchetype: FreeformSuper Stats:Level 6: Ego (Primary)Level 10: Constitution (Secondary)Level 15: Intelligence (Secondary)Talents:Level 1: The InvincibleLevel 6: Healthy MindLevel 9: AsceticLevel 12: AcademicsLevel 15: Quick RecoveryLevel 18: NegotiatorLevel 21: WordlyPowers:Level 1: GunslingerLevel 1: Two-Gun Mojo (Rank 2, Rank 3, Accelerated Metabolism)Level 6: Concentration (Rank 2)Level 8: Holdout Shot (Rank 2, Stim Pack)Level 11: Killer InstinctLevel 14: Lock N LoadLevel 17: Lead Tempest (Rank 2, Rank 3)Level 20: Quarry (Rank 2, Rank 3)Level 23: Evasive Maneuvers (Sleight of Mind)Level 26: Bountiful Chi Resurgence (Rank 2, Resurgent Reiki)Level 29: Masterful DodgeLevel 32:Level 35:Level 38:Travel Powers:Level 6: Athletics (Rank 2)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 (1/2)
Remember, I'd plan on retconning the character entirely at level 30 anyway, so power, spec and advantage choices after level 30 are useless. And yeah, I could have gone with an MSA build, but I find that MSA doesn't give the best energy return under level 30. Your stats just haven't gotten to the level where the energy expenditure of keeping two (or more) timers going is worth the energy return.
Are there better, easier levelling builds? Or am I pretty much on the money?
