Hi, the title says it all. Im currently equipped with full exotic soldier armor and knight jewellery. Was using a GS but am currently thinking of switching to main a staff using gs as secondary weapon with a planned 0/20/30/0/20 build, taking the minor trait to turn 5% toughness into condition damage. The 20 points in those trees are for clone on dodge and extra bounce for bounce attacks.

I’ve seen the Osicat thread and videos but I’ve always preferred to go for tanky sets instead of berzerker gear.

Would like to know if anyone has any feedback on the viability of this build or has tried it out before i sink my badges to get the invader staff.

Thanks

Its viable, but you’d get a lot more mileage from going 30 into Illusions instead of those final 10 points into Chaos.

You get a much better major GM trait, more overall condition damage from the 100 from Illusions, and a pretty good minor GM trait with Shattered Strength.

alright, thanks for suggestion. I think you’re right on the last 10 points in illusions to.
