New player

[Olliande]

Hi,

I am a new player (begin the game 6 month ago) and i want to play a dominator from 1 november to 30 November.
I will solo mostly to discover this archetype.
I have played a blaster ( nrj/nrj) until Alpha tier 3
a Tank Shield/Mace until lvl 30
a Scapper DB/SR until lvl 20
a MM Thugs/Time until lvl 50
a Corruptor Archery/TA in progress ( lvl 28) until 31 october.
The Corruptor give me a little taste of mezz but i'm not a specialist.

I will play it in prevision of I24.

I was thinking of this :

What did you think about it?
Not too difficult to progress?
All my remaining inf and parangon points will go in this toon.

The only speed bump I might see is if your attacks are all psy-based other than lift and boxing, you might have trouble with arachno drones, sky raider jump bots, council hoverbots and robots. I would have to look more into the damage types from mind dom.

[Olliande]

You're right, didn't think about this.

Roll a Plant/Fire or a Plant/Psi. If its your last hurrah, may as well play the best set out there.

I'm going to echo this.... Plant/Psi is devastating, but it's a build you don't here people talking about much. You get nasty AOE's plus a mini-tanking power (Carrion Creepers + Seeds of Confusion).

You basically have a tool for every situation. Plant/Fire is a nasty combo as well... but Plant/Psi is crazy good. I never knew why it wasn't a more popular build.

I just wanna cry at how sweet this is.

I remember Plant/Psi being regarded as very, very good - maybe it didn't get talked about as much because everyone knows it's so strong.

My main is Plant/Fire/Fire, and I see a lot more Plant/Psi/Ice running around than fellow P/F/F.

But Plant/Psi/Ice is really, really strong - you've got Seeds & Creepers, perma Drain Psyche, and then Sleet and Frozen Armor so you have really massively good control and survivability.

I prefer /Fire/Fire though cause Embrace of Fire, Rain of Fire, and Fire Ball are just too good for me to pass up.
