Help with a ranged psionic build

dragonray46 · November 2012

Hi all was wondering if the zen masters of the game could help me with a ranged psi build. This would be a dps build or maybe support build if the damage is still good. A mix of telepathy and telekinesis is what im looking for, im just not sure where to start. Trying to stay away from the whole ego blade stuff (concept reasons). I was also thinking of maybe adding some force abilities as i like the idea of TK force fields. This would be primarily for PVE as im not a huge fan of the PVP in Champions (superheroes standing around all day fighting each other just doesnt work for me

). Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. P.S. I was looking at ego/dex/ int or rec as super stats dont know if that would work and again im open to suggestions

I tested the build in Support role for the extra healing and bigger bubbles. It still has decent DPS, I was able to get up to 13k TK Lances. The way the build works is to pop your Circle of Primal Dominion in a decent spot where you can attack and heal up to 100' away(bubbles only reach 50'). You wont need your energy builder, so just attack away forever and only stop to bubble/heal an ally really quick.

Thank you for the build suggestion might have to change my concept a bit to work in the magic elements as this was meant to be a x-manish type mutant. Will try it out though

This is a pure psychic build, quite effective and themeatic.

Masterful dodge is based on the premise that your psychic abilities allow you to "see" attacks comming from a mile away and can evade them

This was awesome thank you for taking the time to post it.

Ravenforce has a great build there. But, I would add Ego Sprites to the mix. It does aoe damage over time and is a "fire and forget" power which continues to damage after you have cast it. Hmm, it could draw Threat I suppose. But, it's still an awesome power.
Have you considered trying Personal Force Field as a Passive? I have a TK blade tank that uses Regen, but I've played with the idea of a TK ranged dps the uses PFF for defense.
TK Lance is the ranged version of Ego blade annihilation, so I'm glad to see that in the build Raven gave you.
I'd suggest getting the Enhanced Form Advantage for TK Eruption as it makes the bonuses last longer.

I have a GL themed toon based on this build and it's a blast to play.
