Spinny's DPS Warzone Soloin' Builds ( that are also really good in every other part of the game )

So I've decided that I'm just going to go ahead and publish all my builds even though supposedly I hate doing that. Each build posted will also have a video of me using it to beat up various groups in the warzone. I'm doing this for several reasons:
1. So you can all see how cool I am. ( 95% )
2. So that people can see that it is possible to solo in the warzone with a fun themey squishy dps. ( 2.5% )
3. So that people can get some inspiration on how to build their own versatile, potent builds ( 2.5% )
The Shock'n'Block - Electricity
The TK Sniper - TK Ranged
The Stunning Sorcerer - Sorcery
The TK Assassin - TK Blades
The Monk - Unarmed
The Mobile Weapons Platform - Power Armor
The Super Soldier - Munitions
The Burning Champion - Heavy Weapons
The Fire Elemental - Fire build
The Psyker - Telepathy dps build
The Knockout Champ - Might build
More soon.
PSA - Elixirs
For those who don't know about them there is a vendor at the base in the Warzone who sells Elixirs that give you high resistence to various damage types. Here's their selection:
These Elixirs give the equivalent of really strong fully stacked Defiance towards that one damage type, and so they can make encounters in the Warzone much more manageable. You'll notice I'm not using them in my videos, which is mainly because I always forget to grab them and so it's become a habit, so if you do use them it makes all this stuff even more doable.
Just thought I would point that out to make sure people know about it o3o
My suggestion is to grab the Toxic one for the horrors/cultist area, the Ego one for the worms area, and the Particle one for the robots area. Those tend to be the attacks that give you the most trouble in each area. You shouldn't need one for sharks.
The only downside to using these is that you use up currency that could be spent on those tasty tasty Rejuvenating Formulas, and they only last about 2 minutes so you'll have to get your business done quickly or end up having to use multiples.

Nearly lvl20 with this build now and I am pretty impressed so far. My only abilities currently are sparkstorm, storm sigils, ball lightning, and electric shield.(+form & passive) It even seems to be doing pretty good in alerts and all I'm doing it pressing a few buttons every so often and then mashing down block. I like it.

That absolutely counts \o/

Not only counts but excellent idea. Do you use it with TK melee? Now I'm getting ideas...

Epic Stronghold
Block timing explained
Pretty much. I do use the tank store item myself (forgot the name of the guy with the giant sword) and a few devices, but soloing the Q Warzone can be fun.
Downvoted all of them

Probably going to wait until the revamp of Earth.

Still totally counts as solo. Speaking of sidekicks, I used to try to use some, and they did help a lot when they were helpful. But, mostly they are such aggrotards they make stuff worse.

I've found Emily Lovett and Rex both very useful for Warzone dailies. I avoid aggro by being very careful in picking target groups. If they are too clustured together, I avoid them. I send the pet in first, since they have about 13k HP they can handle the initial aggro. Then I fire off the heaviest hitting attack I have. Wash, rinse, repeat.

am lazy+casual and this build really suits my do-not-want-target-things-individually mindset
been using a pet build with ebon destruction and pet benefit crit boost spec trees (i think overseer etc) that works sorta similarly buuuut have only messed very little in the QWZ so far >.>
I<3 the shock-n-block build. I ended up making an AoED support Shocker Blocker. He can easily solo the warzone on rank 5's. Plus switching to Ball Lightning/Lightning Arc spam for cosmics. But honestly, it's crazy how survivalble that build Spinny posted is.
We should have a Shock-n-Block party in the Warzone at some point!
Thanks again for posting these - add me to the group loving Shock'n'Block!

This is no Spinny quality, but here is my fire build that solos QWZ fairly easily.
http://aesica.net/co/herocreator.htm?v=30&n=Vulcana&d=152303QXLKPW0630002000241828032D002G032O002N162M072H0J8O00NK04JA005800NC030dB3438W09gO500000000&e=
Stack the Dex like it's your bae. But, if you find you are too squishy, swap a bit of Dex for Con. I do have her dual geared, one for Dex for DPSing and one for CON for tanking. As a tank, she can both MT and OT pretty much everything, but she does need a decent healer (and a better player, but it's not the build's fault that I keep missing blocks). As a DPS, she tests at around 4K against the regen dummies in the PH.
Note that she is heavy on theme, so there are some choices that could be better. Some things you could maybe improve:
* Swap Absorb Heat for a better Self-Heal.
* Swap Fireball for an Ultimate or something more useful.
* Drop Defiance as a second passive and take something more DPSy.
Also, note that she is still Guardicator. Just like Spinny, I also find this good for certain builds. But, you could easily change that to your taste.
