Title: Blaster enhancement spec questions. Post by: Mesozoic on May 18, 2004, 06:25:53 AM I'm currently running two blasters on Victory. The first is an energy/energy blaster (level 10 atm) for solo play. My plan is to focus on recharge reduction and damage enhancement. Roll up on a group of 2-3 mobs and blow them away from a Hover before they can take advantage of my low HPs.
The second (just 2nd level atm) blaster is Ice/Ice, and is intended for group play. This blaster will focus on +Hold Duration (for the Ice slow effect and roots) and Endurance Reduction (for longer group fights), with some +Accuracy (for consistency). The plan here is to for consisent, moderate damage with the helpful slow and root side-effects that will help a group wear down baddies without earning me aggro. Any advice with these? As far as I can tell my plan is sound through level 10 or so, but past there is not my realm. Title: Blaster enhancement spec questions. Post by: DarkDryad on May 18, 2004, 07:30:27 AM At higer levels you will be fairly ineffective without some accuracy added in there. The fastest way to move up is by fighting things a good bit over your levels within a group. Longevity in a fight is a good thing but dont downplay damage. The faster you kill it the less recovery time will be needed. Also within the group you will be assisted so longevity isnt the prime concern. Killing as fast and efficently as possible is.
Title: Blaster enhancement spec questions. Post by: WayAbvPar on May 18, 2004, 09:35:30 AM I play an energy/energy blaster that works decently in a group. I just need to avoid my big knockback attacks when the melee folks are having a go at the mob (which I don't ALWAYS do, but I try!).
DD is right- accuracy is going to need a slot on your big powers at least. I spend too much time missing as it is even with DO enhancements. Title: Blaster enhancement spec questions.

I currently have on my Energy/Elec blaster (currently level 17): Primary: PowerBlast 5 (Damage, Damage, Range, Accuracy, Accuracy) EnergyTorrent 5 (Damage, Accuracy, Knockback, Range, Endurance reduce) SniperBlast 5 (damage, damage, Range, Accuracy, Endurance Reduce) Power Burst 3 (damage, damage, accuracy) Secondary Electric fence 1 (damaga) Lightning Field 1 (damage) Buildup 1 (To Hit Buff) Pools Flight: Hover 2 (deffence, Deffence) Flight: Fly 2 (Speed, Endurance reduce) Speed: Hasten 1 (Recharge time) Just wondering, am I loading out my primary powers too much? Should i throw a slot or two into Hasten or Buildup? |
