Too brittle in the DR area (though even the builds below don&#8217;t help <em>that <\/em>much at this level and with only even-level DOs).  Ignore the future Weave &#8212; it looked a lot better in I4, and I&#8217;d already changed my mind on it.<\/p>\n<hr width=75%>\n<strong>Lynn Calodo #2<\/strong><br \/>\n01 : Resist Physical Damage damres(01)<br \/>\n01 : Smite acc(01)  acc(3)  dam(5)<br \/>\n02 : Shadow Maul acc(02)  acc(3)  dam(5)  dam(9)  \/\/ dam(31)<br \/>\n04 : Dull Pain recred(04)  recred(7)  recred(7)  recred(9)<br \/>\n06 : Combat Jumping endred(06)<br \/>\n08 : Temp Invulnerability damres(08)  damres(11)  damres(11)  \/\/ damres(17)  damres(19)  damres(19)<br \/>\n10 : Swift runspd(10)<br \/>\n12 : Hasten recred(12)  recred(13)  recred(13)  recred(15)  recred(15)  \/\/ recred(17)<br \/>\n14 : Super Jump jmp(14)<br \/>\n====<br \/>\n16 : Unyielding damres(16)  damres(27)  damres(29)  damres(29)  damres(31)  damres(31)<br \/>\n18 : Health hel(18)  hel(21)<br \/>\n20 : Stamina endrec(20)  endrec(23)  endrec(21)  endrec(25)  endrec(25)  endrec(27)<br \/>\n22 : Siphon Life acc(22)  hel(23)<br \/>\n24 : Shadow Punch acc(24)<br \/>\n26 : Dark Consumption acc(26)<br \/>\n28 : Invincibility defbuf(28)<br \/>\n30 : Soul Drain acc(30)<br \/>\n32 : Midnight Grasp acc(32)<br \/>\nThis version gets rid of RPD extra slots, and adds in TI (at the expense of my third DM attack, Shadow Punch, which waits until 24, leaving me with two DMs and Brawl).   Better, but I hate losing my attack chain like that.<br \/>\nThe approach here is the idea that you can cap Lethal\/Smash Resistance in Scrappers(70%) with 6xUny, 1xRPD, 6xTI (76% with even SOs &#8212; so it&#8217;s all off in the distant future anyhow).  The Uny also then gives you some res to Elemental and Energy dmg, too.  I would just as soon (on principle plus not needing it) avoid Tough from the Fighting pool, which is also used to hit the cap.<\/p>\n<hr width=75%>\n<strong>Lynn Calodo #3<\/strong><br \/>\n01 : Resist Physical Damage damres(01)<br \/>\n01 : Smite acc(01)  acc(3)  dam(5)  dam(17)<br \/>\n02 : Shadow Maul acc(02)  acc(3)  dam(5)  dam(9)  \/\/ dam(31)<br \/>\n04 : Dull Pain recred(04)  recred(7)  recred(7)  recred(9)  recred(13)  recred(13)<br \/>\n06 : Combat Jumping endred(06)<br \/>\n08 : Temp Invulnerability damres(08)  damres(11)  damres(11)  \/\/ damres(17)  damres(19)  damres(19)<br \/>\n10 : Swift runspd(10)<br \/>\n12 : Shadow Punch acc(12)  dam(15)  dam(15)<br \/>\n14 : Super Jump jmp(14)<br \/>\n====<br \/>\n16 : Unyielding damres(16)  damres(27)  damres(29)  damres(29)  damres(31)  damres(31)<br \/>\n18 : Health hel(18)  hel(21)<br \/>\n20 : Stamina endrec(20)  endrec(23)  endrec(21)  endrec(25)  endrec(25)  endrec(27)<br \/>\n22 : Siphon Life acc(22)  hel(23)<br \/>\n24 : Dark Consumption acc(24)<br \/>\n26 : Hurdle jmp(26)<br \/>\n28 : Invincibility defbuf(28)<br \/>\n30 : Soul Drain acc(30)<br \/>\n32 : Midnight Grasp acc(32)<br \/>\nReplaces Hasten.  Adds enh slots to perma-DP, uses the power slot to get Shadow Punch that much earlier.  Much nicer, and I&#8217;m seriously considering this, though it&#8217;s almost blasphemous to get rid of Hasten with a Scrapper.  But it&#8217;s a pretty quick attack chain regardless, if I&#8217;ve permaed DP is not as big a deal, and it frees up a <em>lot <\/em>of enh slots.<br \/>\nThoughts?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I&#8217;m looking to respec Lynn, since I feel like she&#8217;s way too brittle right now under I5.
