  1. thxs for all the responses guys! I decided to go with TW/ELEC because I'm still kinda weary about /EA. However do anyone have any suggestion of very cheap IO set for lvl 21 brute?

    Never thought about going /EA...Is it better survivability wise than /Elec?
  3. Cool... Would a TW/Elec be able to take on a lot of aggro? Also my TW/ELEC is lvl 18 atm should I buy her a cheap IO set or just the regular IOs?
  4. So I'm taking a break from playing my doms to play a brute again but I'm torn between a TW/ELEC and a TW/WP. I want to know which one has the edge I guess in sturdiness and end management and which one has a better synergy.
  5. Oh wow thank you all for all the advice I took a little bit from everyone's build and I decided to work on my Mind/fire dom first, then when my Plant/Fire gets to 50 she will be my priority until I get more monies. My Earth/Fire is still kinda of a work in progress since I'm not sure what direction for the Mastery pools I want.

    But anyways thank you all again
  6. Thanks for all the responses! If it isn't any trouble do anyone have a really good Mind/Fire build and a Plant/Fire build? For the the Mind/fire I would like to keep Total domination but if thats not possible its ok.

This is no joke. The casting time is so fast on stalagmites to be very useful on duels and on team pvp. The only thing an earth-fire Dom has problems with in duels are serious debuffs like a cold defender or a poison corruptor. A cold defender or even corruptor will make your fire damage laughable.

    However, in pvE, earth is my favorite control focus set. It is just heave in controls and stalagmites is a SUPERB mob opener in width duration, etc.... I can rely on Stalagmites better than Seeds of Confusion when I am soloing mobs of x5 or more. Stalagmites seems to have a greater area coverage than Seeds.

    I have an earth-thorns Dom I love to death, because thorns is so good at AoE dmg.
    That's actually good to know and it makes my decision even harder XD! But I can see how stalagmites can be very potent because that duration is no laughing matter... I love my earth/ dom XD

    Decisions decisions! I guess I can switch them those IOs time to time between the toons until I get the money :/

    any set will benefit from perma-dom obviously, but i think mind/ benefits the most from a lot of recharge. plant has SoC which is already an every mob power with little help. earth has so many controls to the point where you can just pick any combo and still be effective. but mind, although it's a beast in it's on right, will need the most help to get mass confusion and total domination enough recharge to alternate and not have to rely on mass hypnosis.

    but it all comes down to your play style. versatility, mind/. damage, plant. hard control, earth.

    Very true about mind, I found out it's very versatile. After not playing for almost a year and a half I played all my high level doms (except for the Mind/fire I made her yesterday) and what I found out is with Mind/ I literally can shut down entire mob and let the others on my team do their thing. However, when it came to dmg my Plant/fire and Earth/fire outperforms my Mind/Elec and they're not even perma. So when it came down to soloing it felt slugish too me. I guess after playing my plant/fire and watching mobs literally melt in no time, I guess I expected more. Hopefully my Mind/fire won't disappoint .

    I guess I would go with Mind/Fire and work on getting the other two perma!

    Ty all for replying to my nonsense!
  9. Ok I'm here's the story: I'm about to retire my mind/elec who is perma dom because well I'm not liking /elec dmg right now, it just seems meh to me... But anyways I'm going to gut her for those very expensive IOs I used for her. So my question is which toon should have those IOs: Mind/Fire (lvl 5), Plant/fire(lvl 36), or my Earth/fire (lvl 50)?

    I guess what I'm looking for is:
    -Works well in Teams (strike forces RSF, etc) and works well solo
    -A nice dmg (I'm not looking for omg crazy dmg that what my secondary is for)
    -A little bit pvp action if need be

    I love them all... I love how my Mind/elec (except for the /elec part) can shut an entire mob in just a few clicks, I love how my plant/fire have a crazy control chaos thing going that steamroll through mobs, and I love how I'm literally a walking container of napalm with my Earth/Fire.

    I wish I had the money to perma all of them but I can only choose one for now

    Fun scrapper

    Claws/Sr for me! I love the fact I have almost no downtime with her...Its always stabby stabby stabby and more stabby .
  11. This problem recently started at night on Tuesday. When I'm not attacking everything is fine and smooth but once I engage in a fight (in an AE mission) and activate one of my powers my screen just freezes completely and I can barely move. And once I'm done fighting (if I'm still alive) everything goes back to normal. This is very annoying because I'm very close to hitting 50 on one of my toons and I can barely play b/c of this.

    My computer meet all the min requirements and stuff. It never had this problem until tues.

    Errr... I guess if this means anything my fps drops to 0.3 I think once I start fighting.

    Help
  12. I have a lvl 50 elec/stoner and I want to use her to farm AE missions. I want to use her to pl my SS/fire brute on my 2nd account so I can use that one for farming instead (irony).
  13. ty all for the advice! My rad/therm is lvl 26 now! She is ok to play with I just feel her damage is a little underwhelming to be honest. Also chasing ppl so I can heal them is a little annoying too but I'm getting there .

    I hope she'll eventually get better soon
  14. Ty for the advice!

    I have 2 toons that are Fire/* so I'm taking a break from that primary for now .

    I think a rad/therm would be a little bit more fun plus I always wanted to try the /therm. However, I might try the rad/cold because I love the /cold (RIP my Ice/Cold corr ).
  15. I want to make a new pvp corr and I cant decide which one to make. They both seem viable in their own way but I'm not too sure...

    Also if anybody have the time can someone show me any good builds for both?

    TY in advance!!
