    Howdy folks! I've been interested in making an Earth/Fire/Fire dom, but just haven't gotten around to it yet. Now, I know most ideal dom builds strive for permadom, but I was wondering if a build built for defense would be viable and worthy of pursuit. I am not interested in using purple recipes. Here are some highlights of my build:

    45% ranged defense (with toggles on)
    29.1% aoe defense (with toggles on)
    66% accuracy bonus
    47.5% recharge bonus (without hasten on)
    Knockback Protection Mag -4 (Blessing of the Zephyr)

    Some questions I have:
    1. Is Mag -4 enough knockback protection?
    2. I was very much on the fence between Stone Cages and Incinerate. Did I make the right decision with Stone Cages? If I took Incinerate, I would have 6-slotted it with Mako's Bite. Does Stone Cages get enough utility when I can use Quicksand? Is Incinerate useful along with my plentiful ranged and aoe attacks?
    3. Is it worth it to have the Achille's Heel -Res proc in Earthquake, or would I be better off placing that slot in a power like Consume or Hasten?
    4. Is the chance for End in Stamina worth it, or would I be better off using that slot for Consume or Hasten?
    5. Will I regret having the knockback proc in stalagmites?

    Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Here is my anticipated build:

    Thanks Silas! Oh man, why would anyone want Diamagnetic then?
  3. Maroon Warlock
    Howdy! I was wondering which Interface slot would be more effective for a tank to take on an AV or GM. I'm thinking either Reactive with the DoT, or Diamagnetic with the 100% chance for -regen.

    Basically, does the DoT in Reactive outdamage the regen of an AV or GM that Diagmagnetic would debuff?
  4. Maroon Warlock
    Hey guys! I just did an ITF tonight and tried to get that team going. Unfortunately there were NO peacebringers on looking for ITF! Bummer! So, I just did an all defender/corruptor team.
  5. Maroon Warlock
    Thank you so much for the replies! I'm not very experienced with Kheldians. 20% damage bonus for each def/corr/tank/MM = AWW YEAH! Thanks for shedding light on the cap question Krogoth and Dechs!

    For those of you interested (Smiling Joe or Mr. Nobody), I'm going to try to arrange this team Tuesday night around 8:30pm Eastern Time on Freedom. My corruptor is Maroon Warlock, and my global chat handle is JoCalibur. Hope to see you then!
  6. Maroon Warlock
    A peacebringer gains +DMG from each def/corr right? What if there was a team of 7 defenders/corruptors and one peacebringer? PB's get 10% DMG for each def/corr right? Adding to the fact that there would be absurd buffage and debuffing going on, would that one peacebringer always have an added bonus of 70% DMG? Is there a cap on how much a Kheldian's inherent can stack the same buff?

    I'm thinking of throwing together a team like this on Freedom for an ITF next week while on my corruptor >

    I would imagine a team of 7 scrappers/brutes/blasters/stalkers would make on Warshade feel like a god too... but yeah, is there a cap on such a buff?
  7. Maroon Warlock
    Thanks for the advice tektronics! I changed everything you mentioned, and made a few more slight modifications.

    1. I took 2 slots off of hover, and 1 off of weave, so that I could put 2 more slots on amplify and a slot on tough.

    2. Instead of putting the -Res proc on Radiation Infection, I put on the Neg damage proc from Touch of Lady Grey. Is this a good choice, or is it just a matter of taste? Does the damage proc even work on Rad Infection?

    I made a few slight modifications. I figured that I would be getting far more use out of Mutation than Siren's Song, so I swapped some powers and slots around. I'm not sure which Alpha would be best suited. I was thinking of going Cardiac so that I can more comfortably leave my toggles on and pump out attacks. Here's the revised build:

  9. Maroon Warlock
    Howdy! I've been reading the forums for a while now, so I've FINALLY decided to make an account! I'm interested in rolling a Rad/Sonic defender. The highest defender I've leveled is a lvl 26 cold/rad, but the leveling was mostly due to the fact that AE farms were the only teams running at that time. I want to give defenders another shot, and Rad/Sonic looks really fun!

    This is only my second time trying to work with IO's. The first time was on my electric armor/ice melee tank, in which I slotted for damage, regen, and recharge. This time, I'm trying to slot for defense and recharge. I'm guessing ranged defense is the way to go. Anyway, I am posting my build from mid's. Any kind of feedback would be much appreciated!
