    In hindsight, you maybe should have just condensed these Muni + X builds into one thread. But I guess its a bit too late for that now..

    Anyways, going the Avenger Mastery route again, just as an option:

    Fear from Hex can buff Bullet Hail via Extra Bullets adv a bit. Has some decent debuffing potential. Gears mostly for Ego, w/ some Con and Rec.

    Ego/Rec/Con? no Pre for AoED?
  • flowcytoflowcyto Posts: 12,859 Arc User
    You can sub Rec for Pres, though the Hybrid version of the aura isn't as good for allies as is- so to me its not a huge priority outside of Support builds.

    Quarry could also be Nightwarrior, if you want to give your guy an invisibility spell for flavor. Crashing Incantation is also a good ultimate you could work in if you have the unlock.

    more into keeping with theme, I'd prefer gunslinger over eldritch bolts

    You shouldn't really be using ur energy builder much (or at all) by max lvl, but if you want to change it, then go ahead.
