Basicly looking for an build that is inspired by the thunderbeast of Japanese legend. Preferably being an dps if possible with an main theme of thunder with some beast elements or pure thunder altogether.

Heyo!
This was actually a fun little experiment for me! I didn't know what a Raiju was before so it was cool to think about a storm beast mythology. Putting that into mechanics of the game got the gears turning, mixing things with Electric typically works out pretty well. Unfortunately, it doesn't work out as well as I'd hope for a melee role DPS (not without giving it a sword, which... I don't think the beast would have), but a Ranged DPS in melee-range is quite reliable, does good damage, and is pretty stocky HP-wise.
Might I suggest the following; Super Stats ○ Endurance (Primary) ○ Dexterity ○ Constitution
Talents ○ The Chiller (+10 End/Con/Dex, +8 Rec) ○ +8 Endurance ○ +8 Dexterity ○ +8 Constitution ○ +5/5 End/Dex ○ +5/5 End/Con ○ +5/5 Dex/Con
Powers Energy Builder: Electric Bolt Power 2: Chain Lightning (Superconductor) Power 3: Sparkstorm (Rank 2, Electric Personality) Power 4: Electric Form (Rank 2, Rank 3) Power 5: Power Source Power 6: Ball Lightning (Rank 2, Triplicity, Supercharged) Power 7: Ionic Reverberation Power 8: Lightning Arc (Rank 2, Rank 3) Power 9: Tear Down (Open Wound, Work Up) Power 10: Eviscerate Power 11: Resurgence (Unchained) Power 12: Antagonize (Rank 2, Rank 3) Power 13: Blinding Light or Cower Power 14: Open Slot* *Power 14 can be a lot of different things depending on what you want. Thundering Return for a self-revive, Storm Strike (Fully ranked) for an ultimate, Storm Summoner (Fully ranked) for a more dedicated AoE, Thrash or Electrical Siphon (Fully ranked) for more sustain. If you'd like my personal opinion, I'd likely take Storm Summoner and get rid of Chain Lightning, since Storm applies Superconductor on full maintain, so Chain Lightning's one function is out the window. Would replace it with Thundering Return or Storm Strike (Rank 2).
Specializations Endurance ○ Gear Utilization (3/3) ○ Readiness (2/3) ○ Outburst (3/3) ○ Hardened (2/2) Avenger ○ Round 'em Up (3/3) ○ Ruthless (2/2) ○ Relentless Assault (3/3) ○ Surprise Attack (2/2) Guardian ○ Fortified Gear (3/3) ○ Ruthless (2/2) ○ Find the Mark (3/3) ○ The Best Defense (2/3) Endurance Mastery
The goal of this build would be to stay in melee range and keep up Bleed stacks while performing a regular Electric rotation. For longer encounters you'd Tear Down until you're confident you have 5 bleed stacks, after which you'd not need to use it anymore beyond getting Restoration. The simple Electric rotation is Ball Lightning, turn on Sparkstorm, do a full maintain of Lightning Arc, turn Sparkstorm back on, do another full maintain of Lightning Arc, then use Ball Lightning again; except, for this build, you'd use Eviscerate after Ball Lightning to refresh all your bleed stacks. I wouldn't slouch on that either, you'll only have some 5 seconds left on your bleed stacks by then!
Hope this helps! It gave me a good idea for another build!
