Five slotting it for the recharge bonus in the posi set makes sense, too.
    So, I see 5 LOTG Recharges. Is that intended? Granted I've taken a few breaks, but I thought after "3" you started losing the perks?

    Wow, thanks for the quick reply. I really do appreciate your time.

    So instead of the Proc in HT, do you think I should strip it down to just 2 recharges and put the extra slot onto hasten? I also may keep the proc on Empty Clips as it seems to hit often and I dig the gun having the KD vibe

    Again, thanks! For minimal extra cash, this should add some extra kickbooty!

    Below is my build as it stands. I have everything listed and really enjoy the character, with a few minor caveats:

    - When last he was built, Fitness wasn't inherent. I'm glad it is now, but not sure how to take advantage of it without having throwaway powers.
    - He hasn't played the Incarnate game much at all, but I'd like him to. His slot is unlocked, that's about it.
    - I'd *really* like to get back to having Soul Tentacles, and possibly Soul Storm.

    So, I welcome any advice, tips, comments, etc. Thanks again for your time!

    So, Metatron_NA, what were your follow-up "Lessons Learned"? I really enjoyed your initial Fire/Fire build and I'm looking to revamp mine as well, so thought I'd come to the source... you!

I'd say that elec armor is one of the best all around sets in the game and you won't go wrong with choosing it.
    Montaugh,

    We spoke earlier tonight. Sounds like you've got a really fun build and I'd be quite interested in seeing it. Thanks again for the chat!

    Thanks for the input and feedback again.

    I don't see the extra slot but made the changes you'd mentioned minus CC with the damage proc. If I can only have the proc on one, do you consider CC or 'trops to be the better spot?

    Here's the code, and thanks again!

    Something I've been pondering as well is removing a most of the 6th slots on 6-slotted powers that give bonuses for defense and freeing up some slots. If I do this, it looks like I could have 4 slots to still play with, for Spore Burst, Fling/Creepers (only 5-slotted now), etc. Thoughts on this would be welcome as well:

    Went to the drawing board a bit and dropped Hibernate from my post immediately above, as well as dropped Tactics and Veng (using GI as a mule), pulled a slot from Stamina (dropping my Recovery from 186 to 176, and with Perma I think that's fine), and a Proc from Fling Thorns, added Thorntrops with 2 Procs (-Recharge, Chance for Energy), and added a damage to Spout. Burst is interchangeable with Roots for me, but historically (pre-Dom changes) when I had it I didn't use it that often.

    I usually only drop Spout during boss-style battles as a distraction and annoyance to the boss, or during those "Oh Crap" moments where I might have popped Hibernate, so adding some damage to it should be fun.

    Here's what it looks like with the changes:

    Great feedback and I do appreciate it. I ended up with one more tweak where I dropped SS and actually picked up Hibernate instead, for the "Oh Crap" moments. Personally, I'm leery against not having some sort of "true" travel power. Ninja Run is great for early on, but the time for moving cross zone in the endgame seems difficult to me on the characters I've tried using NR only on. But I agree, SS is gone for sure.

    That being said, I definitely need to ponder your ponderings. Some good stuff there that I may use to tweak the build a bit. I'm still short a few of the LOTG recharges, so he's a work in progress for sure.

    Again, thanks for the thoughts, and the reply.

    No reason. Doesn't make a big difference from what I can tell, but I do have an extra one sitting around I could put in. I suppose a bit more recovery for free is recovery for me, eh? Thanks for the feedback.

    The link will specifically tell you the Unique only benefits you. And it also uses Traps' Triage Beacon (similar to Spirit Tree) as an example where the User is not maximizing the Unique.

    YMMV
    Great guide and thanks for the link. My search-fu failed me.

    So instead on health I was considering going:
    • two Numinas (Heal and +Regen/Recovery) for the bonus
    • one Miracle (+Recovery)
    • one Tissue (+Regen)
    • and one Regular Health IO
    If I read the numbers correctly from the Mid's Build I've posted here (my last post) (and I may misunderstand Mid's here), I'm seeing 260% Regen. And, since I'm a Dom, not nearly as worried about Recovery, although that is listed as 184% as well.

    Getting hit sucks but is reality. Not having a self-heal still makes me nervous, though. So... how much is too much here?
  11. Snowvein
    Thanks for the replies. I ended up dropping it and moving the proc to Health, along with a few other changes all discussed in the build thread I referenced above.
  12. Snowvein
    Continuing to tweak. Removed a few aux powers and added in concealment for 2 more LOTG spots. Have I gone too far here with recharge?

    During my i19 build revamp ( discussed here and looking for feedback ), I was pondering putting in the Regenerative Tissue: +Regeneration proc in there.

    Does anyone know how this would work? Would it only fire when out? Only when out and I'm in the AoE?

    As I mention in the discussion linked above, I'm short on slots and not sure what else to throw there so any suggestions would be great, here or there.
  14. Snowvein
    No comments? Was hoping to at least get a thumbs up or sideways or something.
  15. Snowvein
    After trading some emails with a trusted advisor, here's what I've come up with thus far, as well as some thoughts on the changes. I have 1 free slot left, not sure where to put it as I see a few options.

    Changes made:
    - Put in Maneuvers, Tactics, and Veng (2 slots, 1 slot, 1 slot)
    - Added a slot to CJ for a 2nd LotG for regen bonus
    - Put in Thorntrops as a "why not, I have no slots?" power. Considered the -recharge proc in there. Considered adding a recharge with my free slot.
    - Added Super Speed and put a clarity +stealth, because I already have it. Disposable power and easily replaced if there's another suggestion.
    - Added spirit tree and threw a Regenerative Tissue +Regen in there.
    - Considered stealing a slot from Darts if I have a power that could benefit from 2 slots (trops or tree for example).
    - Trops/tree are interchangeable to me.

    Here's my current Plant/Thorn Build pre-i19. With 3 more powers and an Alpha slot to introduce, I'd love feedback on what to improve. I'm not a great number cruncher, nor do I claim to be.

    Here are my general thoughts:
    - I've always felt the build a bit damage-light, so considering Musculature for my Alpha path.
    - His Dom isn't perma, nor has that been a goal, but I'd like to reduce his "downtime". That may change the Alpha slot
    - Super Speed will be replaced with Super Jump
    - Not opposed to introducing in Spirit Tree or Thorntrops or the Fighting pool

    Thanks in advance!

    Since we're in i19 with Inherent Fitness and Incarnate abilities, I wanted to brush off The Hood. As I'd mentioned above, I really want to get my Immob back.

    However, I'm running out of slots just moving stuff around, and I've got powers that are optional-but-underslotted (Tough/Weave). I'd like to get some slots on the immob, and I'm pretty much sold on the Musculature tree for Alpha. All IO's listed are currently slotted so I'm not out any cash currently.

    Thoughts/feedback appreciated:

    So is this a PVE build? Or a farming build? Likely rolling one of these and I want to be able to have fun w/ it along the way.

    Actually running the moderate build to the letter. I thoroughly enjoy how I'm running, but figure 3 new powers can't hurt anyone. Contemplated introducing Aid Other/Self, but without the slots to spare not sure if it is worth it. Was curious what others were doing now.

    Also contemplating going the Nerve Incarnate route for the 20% Defense boost in Radial.

    That being said, I certainly wouldn't be opposed to phasing out hasten and going the Spiritual route. Personal dislike of having two powers that cycle (Active Defense and Hasten) and only the option of having one automatically go off.

    Truthfully, I'm not a great number cruncher, but I can follow with the best of 'em
  20. Snowvein
    Curious... has anyone played with updates to these builds (particularly the Moderate Elec/SD) for i19? I couldn't find anything posted, but my search-fu may be weak.
  21. Snowvein
    After finishing out my DDDD after several years (and lots of help), I'd like to tweak him for i19.

    For reference, here's the pre-i19 data chunk that I was quite happy with:

    And the discussion about the above build is available here.


    And here's what I'm thinking for i19, with these possibly lingering issues:
    - I liked the old build (and the IO's are already owned), so I tried to work in powers that required minimal slots
    - New powers acquired are Tactics, Vengeance, and Soul Transfer
    - Not sure of the enhancements on these new powers
    - Ignore enhancement placement order, was trying to minimize hassle when going from old to new. Power selection order is what I'm planning.

    Currently I'm running into a bit of an endurance issue for extended rapid-pace fights (like a large group ToT that doens't rest), but that's because I haven't slotted the two performance shifters because I'm not at the right level yet. I'd expect it to be corrected once that is addressed, though. I just toggle-juggle a bit with Tough/Weave as needed if I'm burning too much, or slow down a tad.

    With the build above, even without the LotG's right now, there's plenty going on to where I haven't missed hasten. Once they LotG's are slotted, I think he'll be even nastier. But, keep in mind I went hover/fly for concept, not sets.

    My goals have been to kick some booty and keep the team safe at the same time, running more as an offending controller than a passive defender. As you (probably) know, once you have Fluffy the game changes immensely. Still, I'm never going to be the primary damage dealer.

    When i19 hits and Fitness becomes inherent, I'm not sure what changes I'll make to the build. Slotting will likely be similar, so anything I add will likely be more utility-based or novelty.

    Last but not least, any more I'm a pretty casual player, but I've been able to make some decent Inf with minimal work. Take a look at the market threads to see how people can generate some serious $ in a matter of days.

    Hope this helps!
  23. Snowvein
    Juggled some stuff around a bit. Swapped P-Gaze and Nightfall, we'll see how that goes. Now comes the fun part... shopping.

    Playstyle question for you: How do you typically use Oppressive Gloom? As a "Crap I'm surrounded?" or as a toggle you always keep running. It isn't a power I've played with before.
  24. Snowvein
    Good points. I was more focused on trying to replicate the replaced sets. Back to the drawing board, and I appreciate you working with me! I've made the changes, removing the two procs and filling out the set. If I don't need the full sets on Fluffy and Fearsome, I could move those slots to Night Fall and get a 6 slotted Nightfall as well.

    I'm horrid at the pro/con game!
