    Soloing GM. Tips?

    POST-ACTION

    Babbage just felt to my dark wrath. Once I have him debuffed with some attacks + fluffy, turning darkest night off seems to cut the running a bit.

    I wasnt able to immob him with living shadows. I guess I will have to chain Living Shadows + Shadowy Binds

    Well done!
    It can be done without lore pets, but you are looking for a very loooong fight. Lore pets really help speeding it up.

    As I said, HT can be up for more than 50% of the time with my build, and TG + Fluffy TG stacks. The biggest problem is that all 4 pets (shades, StupidBarkingDog, and Fluffy) all lose a lot of DPS when moving. When the GM is not moving, and you have Tar Patch double stacked plus all your -regen you really start to see that Dark/dark has more damage than most think

    Soloing GM. Tips?

    Yes, I know that. The -regen is mostly covered by Howling Twilight (up more than 50% of the time) + fluffy TG (not a lot, but helps). The -res comes from Reactive and Tar Patch...but the problem with Tar Patch is that GMs tend to run a lot when their tohit is floored

    I changed my build and added a bit more DPS. I will test it again when I have time.

    If a GM can be immobilized with the ST immob, I will find a way to fit it in my build. Hopefully I shouldnt need it, since both Fluffy and StupidBarkingDog have immobs

    Sorry about the off-topic, but would you mind sharing that performance testing AE arc?

    This is probably the last build until I remove my laziness and switch to red side to unlock patron pools.

    Im considering droping consume for Recall Friend (and put a winters gift 20% protection). I dont remember the last time I used consume, Soul Absorption is great and can be up 80% of the time with minimal slotting

    Strong points:
    - 182.5% recharge with permahasten
    - 36.1% ranged def
    - Living shadows + Fearsome Stare account for 30% tohit debuff (not taking into account alpha slot or mob resistances)
    - Good damage both AoE and ST
    - Perma Heart of Darkness (and HT has 55s rech for a mag4 stun)

    The "only" weak point I can see is that Fade is not perma and is underslotted, but it will still have a good uptime.

    Had to use a few enh boosters, but I have some extra points and nothing to buy until staff fighting :P

    Soloing GM. Tips?

    I was spamming the AOE inmob, i dont have the ST one. Seems that, short of getting provoke, there is not much I can do. Thanks!

    POST-ACTION

    My opinion, which I randomly got out of the air (no proof whatsoever :P ) is that sometimes the tohit debuff is applied before the control effect (hold/fear) so the mob has a chance to retaliate

    Soloing GM. Tips?

    POST-ACTION

    Hi,

    I just tried to solo the Kraken in Perez Park... I managed to do it, but had to use Lore Pets. Now, I dont mind using them, the problem is that I couldnt kill it before the pets despawned

    I think the problem is that the GM kept running and fleeing. I couldnt make him stand in the same spot for more that 10secs, which means a lot of damage lost due to movement, and Tar Patch almost unusable.

    What are your tips for GM soloing?

    P.D: I was on my Dark/Dark

    They do more damage than you do, at least single target :P Just for that they are very worth in my book

I also had a bunch of purples in storage that I figured I'd use instead of hoarding them. I only needed two to complete the build in which I traded two Ragnoraks for.

    I may end up using the 3 extra slots I have for Damage/Acc 9or maybe Damage/Range) HOs in Dark Grasp and Living Shadows.
    Going Soul Mastery is in my TODO list Fireblast and fireball can be changed for Shadowy Binds and Dark Obliteration. You lose a bit of punch, but is really similar. I dont think the damage difference will be big, specially if you get Soul Drain. FS + Tar Path + Soul Drain + Living Shadows + Dark Obliteration = profit

    Good points on LotG and maybe changing the shadow field slotting. I thought damage procs in shadow field would do more damage. Isn't it bugged right now with store-bought procs and firing all the time?
    Never tested LEviathan. I can only tell you that im obliterating mobs with fire :P

    Dark Grasp does good damage if slotted for it. Something around 80% of Fireblast. My DG has 4xbasilisk + Hami Acc/Dam + Dam IO, while fireblast 5xdecimation. Imo is quite good for a ST enviroment, you can alternate DG+blast with good recharge (or cast anything else like TG so you have no pause)
  18. Erhnam
    Yes, the lockdown proc is very useful, sorry I didnt say that Is just the damage procs that dont seem worth to me
  19. Erhnam
    Either intuition or musculature are good.

    With musculature you get a bit of speed (running/traveling) and extra end modification (goes well with SA, or even stamina)
    With intuition your controls will last even more, but you dont get damage+tohit debuff until T4. You also get range

    I'm running at 0/4 in the DA arcs, as well as against Arachnos, Freaks, Carnies and Rikti and nudging my way up slowly.
    Thats the difference. I was running at 0/x8 as soon as I hit 50, no danger at all, and quite fast Arachnoss, longbows, carnies, malta...you name it

    Well, maltas were hard until I got Clarion :P

    Go for it. I also got convinced to do that :P seems the best approach
  22. Erhnam
    Why dont you go Fire or Soul if you want more damage? You have fireblast/fireball, or Oblit+soul drain.

    Also, steadfast 3% def is cheap, and even glad 3% def is now cheaper than some enhancements in your build, if you want to get easy 6% def

    I would love to know what do you want me to do with this
    - Less recharge
    - Less defense (unless you want me to rely on a 1min buff that wont be perma because hasten is 10s off - and I said I didnt want to rely on it)
    - Less damage
    - Less tohit debuff
    - A patron pool, when I have said that I havent gone Soul because I didnt do the arcs
    - No explanation whatsoever. It seems that you just drop this here by accident
  24. Erhnam
    If you want more damage, you could go fire mastery for fireblast and fireball. Also, put an acc/dam HO + dam IO on Dark Grasp. You have no single target damage skill.

    Also, a bit more recharge wouldnt hurt. You have 15s of Hasten downtime. Without Hasten, Living Shadows has a 4.5s recharge. Thats a loong time. Suggestion for that:
    - Slot Shadow field for recharge (Basilisk or Unbreakable). You are not getting much from procs in a power that gets fired once every 75s
    - TG can go with 3 (the 4th bonus is not great), so you can 3slot hasten
    - you have room for more Lotg 7.5 (Maneuvers, Fade)

    Another tip, if you have SS because you like it or concept, then forget what im saying, but if you want invis, you can put the celerity proc in Sprint. Sprint+proc+shadowfall = full invis

    Hope this helps
