Might and Electricity?

Hello again!

This time, I'm thinking... Superman with lightning powers. Like, they are willing to fight like a brawler, with Clobber, Defensive Combo, and Mighty Leap, and maybe one more Might-based power but is willing to launch a powerful thunderous shock! I'm also aiming to bring this hero up to level 40 (seeing that they are currently at 30) and could use some advise on what gear and stats I should focus, etc. Anything would be helpful, honestly!

Thanks in advance! :)

    Well, Jaazaniah recently posted a Might + Elec build in this thread:

    https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/championsonline/#/discussion/1215978/might-elemental-ranged-dps

    He mainly didn't include Defense Combo, though - prob cause it's kinda redundant in a dps-focused build (Beatdown or Uppercut are more optimal powers to go in Haymaker-based builds). Also, his build is more focused on dps, but I'm not sure if you want that or something more defensive like a hybrid-dps build. Here's an example of a hybrid-dps w/ Might and Elec:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform (Hybrid)
    v3.44:36

    Super Stats
    Level 6: Strength (Primary)
    Level 10: Recovery (Secondary)
    Level 15: Constitution (Secondary)

    Talents
    Level 1: The Devastator (Str: 10, Con: 10, Rec: 10, End: 8)
    Level 6: Relentless (Str: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 9: Amazing Stamina (Rec: 5, End: 5)
    Level 12: Quick Recovery (Con: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 15: Bodybuilder (Str: 5, End: 5)
    Level 18: Physical Conditioning (Str: 5, Con: 5)
    Level 21: Boundless Reserves (Con: 5, End: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Clobber
    Level 1: Defensive Combo (Rank 2, Rank 3, Pummel)
    Level 6: Enrage
    Level 8: Invulnerability (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 11: Sparkstorm (Rank 2, Electric Personality)
    Level 14: Pulverizer
    Level 17: Resurgence (Rank 2)
    Level 20: Haymaker (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 23: Ball Lightning (Rank 2, Triplicity)
    Level 26: Mighty Leap
    Level 29: Electrical Siphon (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 32: Demolish (Rank 2, Below the Belt)
    Level 35: Electric Shield (Rank 2)
    Level 38: Thundering Return
    Adv. Points: 34/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    Level 35:

    Specializations
    Strength: Swole (2/3)
    Strength: Physical Peak (3/3)
    Strength: Brutality (2/2)
    Strength: Juggernaut (1/3)
    Strength: Overpower (2/3)
    Vindicator: Aggressive Stance (2/2)
    Vindicator: Merciless (3/3)
    Vindicator: Focused Strikes (3/3)
    Vindicator: Mass Destruction (2/3)
    Warden: Fortified Gear (3/3)
    Warden: Ruthless (2/2)
    Warden: Upper Hand (2/3)
    Warden: The Best Defense (3/3)
    Mastery: Strength Mastery (1/1)

    It can AoE by using a mix of Defense Combo, Sparkstorm's toggle, and Ball Lit. For single-targets, you can use Demolish to put up (and refresh) its debuff, while Haymaker is your main attack (you can buildup knock immunity w/ the other attacks first if you don't want to KB trash w/ Haymaker), and Sparkstorm and/or Ball Lit can also be thrown in. Elec Siphon can also use the NI debuff to heal you when close up. You could prob get away w/ using Ionic Reverb as the EU here instead, but you'd be more reliant on having good uptime w/ Sparkstorm and Ball Lit then. Gears mostly for Str, w/ some Con and Rec.

    A dps-focused version of the build could use the Melee DPS role and a slotted passive like Night Warrior, Unstoppable, or WotW here (instead of Invuln). A dual-passive approach is also possible, but you'd have to free up a power slot and 4 adv points for it. The build could also potentially trade Con SS for Dex SS, if you want even more dps.

  • Oooh! Now this is far better than what I had in mind! It's perfect! But yeah, I did have a pure DPS in mind but I will give the DPS Hybrid a spin.

    Regardless, much, much thanks (again)! :D
