However, none of the APP's they gave to dom's really suck - they are all pretty nice and add more area attacks and other tools. You won't lose out by taking any of them if you don't like the ice theme for whatever reason.

For a bit of compromise you could go Mace to keep your softcap s/l and have a faster recharging AoE attack and have a -def/-res debuff for hard targets.

Since you're permadom/hasten, defense shouldn't be a huge deal since you're locking mobs down and sapping their end while preventing them from getting it back.

1] You could drop the slots in brawl and use elsewhere as you only need 45% to be at the softcap for a majority of content. take those 3 slots and put 1 in Drain Psyche as it needs an ACC IO, a common DAM IO in Dominate, and a 4 aspect Mako in TK Thrust (if you're going to use it - if not then put another DAM IO in Dominate.

2] Slotting up Psionic Dart. I'm not a huge fan of doing this. I put a Range IO in it and use it to pull. You'll have to rearrange a bit for it, but add 3 slots to your Imps. 4 of the higher level Intensive Recharge pet set (don't remember the name) will give you your 6.25% recharge back and boosts your imps' damage. The leftover slot you can keep in Dart or use it elsewhere. Maybe put a Range IO in psy scream?

Side note: I'm not certain of this but I don't know if that FF:Recharge will work for you in Bonfire since i think it is a pseudo pet.

If so, then the answer is no. Unless your wife is playing some sort of debuffer. Solo wise it will be a stand off. You won't be able to over come the AV regen and such but your defense will allow you to heal up between hits.

Either way Traps debuffs will work better with her debuffs for stacking reasons. Again assuming your wife is gonna play a debuffer.

Trust me 50 levels of bubbling will get annoying I have one. Its defense capped including pets. It just does not offer the fun and abilities Traps does. Its safe as heck. Its pretty much push mobs out of melee range with force bolt and direct your pets to kill each mob in a group and move onto the next. The biggest issue is keeping your pets inside your repel bubble and out of melee range.

What also matters if your going with IO set bonuses or just generic IOs ? Generic then I would Say FF as your going to obtain Defense cap for the pets at least that much easier.

Chances are I'll go with scrapper, but still considering lol.
