Outlaw Jack

[Archived Post]

I won't be starting playing the game until the 1st but anyway here a character that I have in mind:
A cowboy with supernatural powers (who have been alive for quite awhile), while I didn't play in beta, not exactly sure how those powers actually work in the game , just put together what I thought seemed cool and close to the concept of my cowboy (I avoided rocket launcher and stuffs like that because he only focuses on using two guns).

Critics and comments are appreciated, the supernatural cowboy could also be a mystic cowboy if some of you think eldritch powers and the likes fit better the theme:

I am obviously going scrapper style with him and want him to land mostly critical hits (showing his precision with guns).

munitions = dex\ego
supernatural = con\rec

Dexterity - Chance to crit, amount of damage avoided when you successfully Dodge.
Constitution - Hit Points, Hit Point recovery.
Ego - Crit Severity, Strength of Hold effects, ability to free yourself from some Holds.
Recovery - Equilibrium, Energy generated by your fighting attacks.

for crits you NEED a high dex and ego

so make sure the background you take is the one for 12 dex \ 12 ego (quick trigger) (you only need to this if you use a custom framework, if you just use munitions then this will be pre-selected for you)

Then for your super stats work on con and recovery.

use your offensive\def\utility slots to round out your int and end (int will reduce power cost and end will raise max energy).

focus your talents on the 4 stats DCEgR as well as End and I

swap 2 gun mojo and bullet ballet ('cause that's the order you have to take them)
take regen earlier - - i would swap it with breakaway shot

just my two cents

Something to consider:

The only benefit you'll see from Aspect of the Inferno is the damage to nearby enemies. The rest of its abilities enhance powers you don't have.

I'd suggest giving consideration to perhaps Pyre or Fire Form from the fire set.
Pyre if you're looking for the damage, Fire forn if you're looking for the "wreathed in flame" Ghost Rider effect with some damage and defence as well..

If it's just for concept, then go for whatever you want.


Keep in mind, no-one will see what frameworks you use, etc. So being supernatural, alien imbued or the son of a god is all in the background/concept you make up. If you write a background for your character that says you're supernatural, then you're supernatural. Even if you never take a single power from that set.
