Shatterpoint (Debuffing DPS M. Artist)

Having taken feedback on the potential of the Mother Kali build, I went back to the drawing board to capture a similar premise with (hopefully) greater effectiveness. Even with non-suited gear the build performed admirably in the Powerhouse and field testing has been going smoothly so far.

Basic plan: Build up energy, Hit with Demolish and Rising Knee on full charge (in fact, they link together pretty well; press for RK while D is going off)then tear in with One Hundred Hands; the debuffs stack up in a hurry.

    I would move Ranks from MD and BCR and take R3 Conviction. Without Con, you will likely need a much larger heal than R0 Conviction :biggrin:

    Also have you tried Ninja Vanish? I messed around with it the other day and thought it was HORRIBLE.

    The actual build looks pretty decent. Just wondering if you are going to regret taking Str over Con in the long run.

    Remember: Half the people you know are below average...

    Do not correct a fool, for he will hate you for it. Correct a wise man, for he will appreciate you for it.

    Don't be like the Qularr. They would not last one round in the Interstellar Galactic Arena...

    'R0' was prob just a typo

    Well, Str is there to push up DPS higher,and I tacked on Conviction for lack of anything else; MD + BCR w/ RR was meant to be my main heal

    I'd consider Iron Cyclone w/ Vortex just so I didn't have only short range AoE to work with and cause it could clump mobs for 100Hands- that or Ricochet Throw to not only have longer reach AoE, but also to take advantage of Stealth. Could also replace it w/ ES/NM, or Ascension, or a Rush-granting move.

    And I'd prob replace Str 2ndary w/ Con SS. You can still gear Str to 70 if ya want some additive melee dmg and knock resist.

    All rankable powers start at r1 :confused:

    I had meant that it had 0 advantage points in it, not that it was actually rank 0...I'm sure Bluegrassbeast knew what I meant.
