Ok, this is how I built Strike Katana, my Katana/Super Reflex/Weapon Mastery Scrapper. Its not really perfect, but it's great for quick damage and for a minion murderer. Hope you try it if you want.

III. More of the build
IV. Final of the build
V. Why I like it


The Basics

Here are the basic stats for Katana, Super Reflexes, and the Weapon Mastery.

Katana

2. Gambler's Cut: You perform a quick slash with your katana. This attack is very fast, but deals only minor damage. This attack can reduce a target's defense, making it easier to hit.

3. Flashing Steel: You swing your katana in a wide ark in front of you, licking multiple foes. This attack can reduce a target's defense, making it easier to hit.

4. Build Up: Greatly increases the amount of damage you deal for a few seconds, as well as slightly increasing your accuracy.

5. Divine Avalache: You can use your katana to Parry incoming attacks and then quickly return the favor. Divine Avalache does minor damage, but every successful hit will increase your defense against melee and lethal attacks for a short while.
Damage: Minor

Power type: Melee, Lethal Damage, Self +Defense

6. Calling of the Wolf: Challenges a foe to attack you. Useful tyo pull a villian off an ally who finds himself in over his head.

7. The Lotus Drops: You perform The Lotus Drops maneuver, attacking all foes in melee range. This attack wounds your opponents, causing them to take moderate damage over time and reducing their defense.

8. Soaring Dragon: You perform a powerful Soaring Dragon Maneuver that deals a great amout of damage, and can knock a target up into the air. This attack can reduce a target's defense, making it easier to hit.

Power type: Melee, Lethal Damage, Foe KnockUp, Foe -Defense.

9. Golden Dragonfly: You perform a devastating Golden Dragonfly attack that deals a massive amount of damage, and can even knock a foe down to the ground and reduce defense. THis attack as an exceptionally good critical hit capability, better than other Katana attacks, that can sometimes deal double damage. This power of this attack can actually extend a short distance through multiple foes.
Damage: Extreme
Recharge: Slow
Power type: Melee, Lethal Damage, Foe Knockback, Foe -Defense

My own notes: I wouldn't really bother with most Katana skills, as some of them really suck...I mean badly. Most Scrappers are known for attacking, but my build is mostly defense, and has been called the Katana Tanker...I only choose Gambler's Cut, Divine Avalanche, Build Up, Flashing Steel, then the two higher ones, Soaring Dragon and Golden Dragonfly.
