Utility template spear Paragon: I use this often...
This is pretty elementary but... I have this template saved in my builds list because it is just so flexible with so many different builds... so here you go:
~Optional Utility Elite
~Optional Utility
~[card]spear of lightning[/card] or [card]blazing spear[/card] for high energy/ requiring attribute builds
~[card]merciless spear[/card]
~[card]anthem of flame[/card] or [card]"go for the eyes!"[/card] for high energy/requiring attribute builds
~[card]aggressive refrain[/card]
~[card]leader's comfort[/card]
~[card]signet of return[/card]
The purpose of this template is to create a flexible build that allows you to take any primary/secondary paragon elite and do well...as a ranged damage dealer/suport character...
If the desired elite requires no investment in attributes I would recommend switching [card]anthem of flame[/card] for [card]"go for the eyes!"[/card] and invest in command for the sheild...
15 spear
11 lead
10 other (if applicaple..otherwise command)
Here are some suggested skills to put in the 'optional' slots...
[card]cautery signet[/card] and [card]remedy signet[/card]
[card]"it's just a flesh wound."[/card] and [card]remedy signet[/card]
[card]cruel spear[/card] and [card]barbed spear[/card]
[card]stunning strike[/card] and [card]barbed spear[/card]
[card]focused anger[/card] and [card]blazing spear[/card]
[card]anthem of fury[/card] and [card]barbed spear[/card]
you can use elites that dont require (much) investment from you secondary as well ....like:
[card]expel hexes[/card] and [card]lyssa's balance[/card] keeps the hexes and the enchants of the enemy in check
[card]"you're all alone!"[/card] and [card]barbed spear[/card] This is nice to slow down and punish melee as well as give you the opportunity to take WYS and 10 tactics = sheild (only requires investment with w.y.s.)
[card]plague signet[/card] and [card]wearying spear[/card] this one also does not require 'much' investment. (so switch to command)
[card]signet of removal[/card] and [card]dwayna's sorrow[/card] you can also use guardian with this elite...its just a different way to provide support
[card]Infuriating Heat[/card] and [card]"go for the eyes!"[/card] you just gotta keep the spirit away from the battles...
or use an elite that does....such as:
[card]ebon dust aura[/card] and [card]barbed spear[/card] blind bot. paragon style. (requires investment)
[card]weapon of fury[/card] and [card]splinter weapon[/card] this requires some changing around of some skills for emanagement...
[card]assassin's promise[/card] and [card]disrupting dagger[/card] for this one you could change out some skills as well...
[card]water trident[/card] and [card]conjure frost[/card] keep those enemies stationary... (switch out the energy attacks for adrenaline )
[card]blood is power[/card]and[card]order of pain[/card]
