Empath Defender Guide?

[suburbanhell]

Somewhere about 6 months ago I read an Empath Defender guide that I modeled Nurse Red Cross after...I seemingly have lost it. Unfortunately I don't for the life of me remember who wrote it...it was specifically focusing on making the Defender a pure healer...anyone remember coming across this?

If you do, please let me know. I want to get Sailor-Moon up and running on Virtue and I need a good build. I have tried the emp defender before but I never got pased level 10.

I was going to ask DarkangelHawk, she said she could give me a hand.

I know I want to 6 slot all my heals with heal powers, 6 slot the auras with timers and get Hasten 6 slotted. Other then that I need help with the other powers.

Couple Empathy guides I found on the offical forums :D

Ah yes! 8Ball lives up to his title of The Answer Man. :rock:

I liked the second one the best from Tenthletter1979. Here is what I think Sailor-Moon's build is going to be. All I need is some help with macros and keybinds and I can get her up and running ASAP.

Here's is what I want to do for her.

Sailor-Moon Magic Emp/Eng Blast

Emp Pool

Healing Aura 6 Slot Healing
Heal Other 6 Slot Healing
Absorb Pain 1 Slot Heal (maybe more,Don't like the Aggro)
Ressurect 1 slot Enurance (Maybe more)
Clear Mind 1 slot recharge timer
Foritude (Will test, they say Acc and Def are the best)
Recovery Aura 6 slot Recharge timers
Regeneration Aura 6 slot Recharger timers
Adrenaline Boost (Not sure) Rechargers

Eng attack
Power Blot 1 slot acc
Power Torrent 2 slot acc and knockback
(Will wait to get the other attacks, Want to get the healing stuff first.)

Fitness
Hurdle 1 slot jumping
Health 1 slot heal
Stamina 6 slot endurance

Speed
Hasten 6 slot recharge timers
Super Speed (maybe, Moon Jump has it)

Teleport
Recall Friend 1 slot end reducer

Leaping
Combat Jump 1 slot jump
Super Jump (I got Jump's maxed, don't know if I'll do it to her)

Let me know what you think, I think that build should be good for her. As I did with Jump I'll wait till she's maxed with her Healing powers and other pools till I get attacks for her. I know I want torrent to get people away from her in close combat spots.

The only thing I need to do is keybinds, and I'll need help with that. So if you can help me with two or three keybinds please send me a PM.

I just want a bind for Teleport, and to let my team members know the Aura's are ready and to get near me.

Thanks!

In my opinion you don't need Absorb Pain, this is actually a bad idea.. it costs you the ability to heal yourself, and if your dead your really no good to your team. Also you'll want to 6-Slot Fortitude with Def Buffs, maybe you could make two of them Acc Buff, up to you. In the end of my build I plan to 4-Slot Adrenalin Boost with Recharge, that makes it you able to perma-cast it on one person.

Also.. Fitness is not needed as a Empath, if you know how to balance yourself your perfectly fine without it.. Hasten along with Recovery Aura 6-Slotted with Recharge should keep your end up.

Maybe I should make a guide to Empathy, I get nice comments on my skills.. so that must mean I've done something right.

Alright, the one person said that if you do use it right you won't need fitness, it must be the Shield Defender in me who runs out of Endurance too fast. I think I'll take Leadership later on when I have the Endurance. Plus since Sailor Moon is the "leader" of the Sailor Sensh soi that'd be perfect for her.

I also don't like Absorb Pain. When I first made Sailor Moon I used it once, pissed off the room and they attacked me and I couldn't do anything about it. Maybe I'll try it at a higher level but not when you can first get it.

I'll see how Fortitude is with 4 Def's and 2 Acc's that should be a good balance. I never got up to that power when I was an Emp Defender, I got sick of the way this one team got pissed off I was too slow getting to the mission so I quit and became a Shielder.

I looked all over the official boards, couldn't find it... no idea where I first saw it but it's the reason I have 2 endrdx enh slotted in Healing Aura....so that was definitely part of the guide, lol.....

If you do get Leadership, pass on Assault. Most useless power in the game.

I'll keep that in mind.

Oh hell yes...specced out of it first chance I got :D. Manuvers has a lot more use in the later game.
