Nope i'm not going to preach at the forums for once (o.o stows soapbox) been running HA vs Hybrid endgame comparisons out of sheer boredom. Wanted to throw the 2 best realistic endgame builds i could come up with out to the comunity as a whole to see how ya'll tweak em. These are atainable endgame builds though both are at the absolute high end of what a F2P player will reach...thus endgame. This is NOT a HA vs LA thread, the focus of each build is simply different it really is all about playstyle.

HA http://pwcalc.com/7b4f00d7d6aaf38f

Went with the Def level and HP route here i feel that the +300 add and +200 adds on hat/top/ring do a decent job of makeing up for the loss of the mag belt, though i suppose saph gems could be used in the wrists if you go with a less obscene necky.

Hybrid http://pwcalc.com/60bf8f1f6de5541e

Mainly focused on getting this build a bit more phys def while keeping all the def levels and hp i could, suppose a second sky cover would entirely negate this but the rank 9 rings just so damn sexy...why no g 15? because its only a 700 point change in phys attack, not worth it unless you get 20 attack and -.05 or -.01...or bothb:dirtyb:dirtyb:dirty

Anywho both builds use rank 9 axes as endgame, i held back on 4 socketing the helm/pants since thats like 200+ mill per, 400 mill for +4 def level just dosent seem worth the jump. Wait i'm complaining about that with a +12 g 16 necky? Yes little timmy i am. assumeign you already have 1 g 14 neck its roughly 450 mill to upgrade to g 16 in an actual anni pack sale (saw a few going as low as 40 last one actually) so its 400 mill for 4 def level either way, would rather have a crapton of mag def added on.

So my request is this, next tiem you get bored tweak the builds around or post a similarly costed build of your own design, just trying to get a larger sample base for compareing the 2 builds. Try to keep said builds within the admitedly high cost of the 2 above and tweak away.

Again this is not a "HA vs hybrid what ones better?" thread. Its just me tryign to see other folks ideas so in that spirit unless your build is absolutely lifehuntingworthy I wolnt be flameign hereb:surrender

Figure i'll get an average margin of unsparked DPS, sparked DPS, spike damage, M def, Def level and phys def after i run through all the builds and use that if people post. If not, meh thread will die.

    I use LA partially as well, to balance my defenses a little.
