since mids 10's i set up in Vicious and i dont usually get down it. Instead, i usually rise up it when i do some papers...

When get the pets, relentless will be my home...

Hmmm, try go get at lvl12 swift, then at lvl16 fiery embrace (3slot it ASAP), and then get Telekinesis after gettin stamina, since that power is very endurance intensive, and u almost cant don nothin else with TK active.

I would try to 6slot the ST hold (dominate) and maybe try to 6slot too fire blast, coz that 2 powers gonna be ur bread and butter powers.

For the rest, it seems really nice. Maybe i would try to fit medicine pool anywhere, but no idea what powers could be replaced.

Enjoy it.

IMO, fire blast is a must, considering its ur second highest ranged attack, so u cant fail getting it.

Also, i feel dominators are a bit lack of dmg, so assault powers should be 1ACC,3DMG enhanced. Also, fiery embrace 3RECH sloted ASAP, for the mini-domination time it gives. Some important points to fire/fire would be:

* flares: this is a tinny power and cant do much dmg enhanced, so ppl dont usually bother slotting it. Usually, 1st assault power isnt much usefull except to fill dominator bar, and in this case, flares is so long animation time that is pretty frustrating, but u have to pick it.

* IMO, /fire is good in AoEs, but the combo fire/fire is a bit low in control, and I usually cant manage the aggro it generates, so this is why i went for the ST's powers.

* If u dont have much control, and u have mostly all ST's powers, what u gonna do?? Yeah, play solo almost all the time, coz u cant manage high spawns. Sadly, this is a true that i have found everytime i go to team, and i ended faceplanting twice or 3times...

* Hotfeet: This power is awesomely important soloing. What this power does is to give u time to kill ur enemies. Enemies who enter in ur fire patch will run to u (slowly), will attack u, and then will run out of u, trying to get out of the ring. This will give u enough time to kill anythin, or to hold him (if he is a boss), or whatever u wanna do with ur enemy. Hotfeet will improve ur surviability SOLOING, coz in teams, it will attrack the aggro on u, and remember... u cant handle big spawns.

Those r my thoughts. Actually, i have played my fire/fire to lvl 30, and im feeling powerfull everytime. Now think about how this is gonna be with the monkeys, and u will see what im talking about.

my experience in RV (only RV event) is that my fire/fire got the best prestige of all the doms i tested: 20 prestige in 1 hour.

Think about the power of the imps, and not in control the enemy and hope he will be mezzed 20 secs, that is the time u should need to kill anything except a squishie.

Thats my point of view.

My suggest:

* Aid self = not much usefull for a /elec brute, coz /elec is based in resistance, not in defense, and u will need to stop the battle, go away from it, heal urself and go back... I dont think it is usefull for the brute concept...

* Rage = take it ASAP. Its the power why SuperStrengh it's so awesome, so take it, and dont doubt it.

* Health is usefull, but not much, u will not notice it in high lvls, so dont bother sloting it.

* For /elecs, they usually go for swift and grounded, and they just worry about stay close the earth, but ur build is a bit diference, so maybe it isnt a bad idea to skip grounded... I would go for swift+SS+grounded, but thats ur choose.

Of course, those are my thoughts, u could think they rnt fine for u.

well, that was only a question, as the organizer u can say the rules... I will do my best to join nxt tournament then

tnx anyway for ur fast response.

peace.

I would only consider fire breath coz fire has the fireball and the rain, and u can add there a bit more of AoE... In ice set, it isnt usually enough frost breath plus the rain to kill all of them, it always seems like u need another AoE power...

Thats why i dont bother with frost breath... Although i do preefer the ice set for the single target attacks and for the slows/holds it offers...

Of course, we havent said nothing about the activation times, that both seems to be neverendless animations...

Just 1 fast question...

what about if i got a lvl36 corruptor and i want to join?? i would be very happy teaming with Finn (didnt asked him yet, but im just posting this before all) as we did in SC's sometimes... If im really lower lvl that other toons, ey, thats my problem, i will not have much chances, but i think we could have an special pass...

Ive played an Ice/dark to lvl24 and its really a good combo... think about tar patch + ice storm (3dmg slotted)...

Also, get Darkest night as a good dmg mitigator, and the heal is really awesome, the highest heal with the kinetic one...

In the counterside, i think /dark has a little long time activations for me... But thats just an opinion...

In fire/dark, the same combo is available, plus the fireball and the cone flame attack... A lot of AoE powers for attacks, and a bit less of control (IMO)

Both combos are really good, enjoy them

/agree with MaX, for example, Ice/ has 1 fast activation hold 2Mag, and if u have hasten, u can permaheld a boss spaming the hold, and in the recharge time, spamming the attacks. Well, maybe u should be a kinetic to get more recharge time, or a /rad for his AM, but that always works for me.

Also u can pick ur 2nd hold and use it as an opener and spam the 1st hold to make faster the job (but u have to grabb another power, and that one isnt fine for me)

Hi

Ive tasted some corrs and I could say to u that this AT is really awesome. U will be looked for teaming almost everytime u arnt in a team, and of course u can play as a damage dealer (more like a blaster), or more like a supporter (more like a defender), or be both of them...

From my experience, I have discovered that ice/ is the best set for me, but this is just for me. Try out other sets and get ur own opinion.

For the secondaries, I have tasted some of them (not all), and again, the one I love is kinetics, for the way it makes my team a boom-xperience-tastic...

Try out some sets and see what u like more. BTW, FreshHunter is ice/kin lvl36 and she is in the corrosion rangers, so look for us whenever u want.

Peace.

Im lookin forward the reference i saw last time i checked this power, where it told that endmod enhancements doesnt affect the ammount of end it replenish, but i cant see it, so Im gonna try to check it out this weekend...

If im wrong, my apologizes to all who readed that.

Peace.

FYI, endmod enhancements DONT change the ammount of end u will recover from transfusion. It will increase the ammount of end it leaches to the enemy.

I would say that endmod in this power would be only for pvp purposes.

Peace.

well, continuing with this thoughs, a good attack chain could be shive+thorntrops, and then get closer with AA on, or maybe the ST hold and inmob with the +20 acc inherent...

Right now, i have played 'KillMe Softly' (his battlecry is '... with this song...' ) to lvl6 and so far i have seen the activation times gonna kill me... I hope I become happier with futures powers/activations...

Peace.

Hi all,

Ive been out for a week, too much work actually, but I had time to think about which sets would be better for sirens calls pvp...

Yeah, i know that the Dominator AT is a late blooming, and start to get their powerfull attacks in middle-late 30s, but with that problem, we must get a solution. I would like to see ppl scaring us, and start to dominating sirens call could be a nice way

So, this is my main suposition, from my experience i had with my ice/kinetics corruptor: SLOW is really good in pvp. I mean, SLOW isnt removable with a BF, so an enemy slowed would be that for all the time the powers go on, not as a hold/stun/terror/...

With this thought, i have gone to the builder & this is the 2 sets i have seen would be better than anyother sets:

PRIMARY: ICE: mainly because it got -slow in almost all their powers, and it has some ST powers, that in pvp is what works...

SECONDARY: THORNS: mainly for 3 reasons: the component -def will help to hit, AIM is a great pvp power (and add a plus to the dmg that will be great), and THORNTROPS is another -slow (available at lvl28).

So, what do u think about this idea?? U think im correct saying that slow is really a hurt pvping??

If u are interested, i could post a build later and discuss about powers/slots...

Anyways, discuss time!!

Peace.

Hi there,

i have tested the blizzard power, and i would suggest take it, slot it, and luv it... I would go for 3dmg/3slows, since u gonna use it only in the final bosses, and u will pop up Aim always b4 (that is a +42%-60% to hit buff, so it will hit almost always)

I got Ice Storm, and i got it 3 slotted for slows, so i use it like a patch, just like some /darks use Tar patch. I just pop up aim, then IS, and finally Blizzard... all this proccess could last like 3-4 secs if u have the powers binded (i recommend bind AIM to lalt, then IS to lalt+lbutton, then blizzard lctrl+lbutton), much more time if u have to select all of them each time... The sense in binding the storms with lbutton is that the click u do with the activation is used for placing the storm (u remember the white target blinking??), so u will earn time activating the combo...

The best thing (in PvE) from blizzard is, IMO, the knockdown it has, makin the enemies stay down the blizzard more time. Since, as max said, it is ranged, u could do all of this out of LoS (line of sight), so u will be more safety than any other corr... cheap, isnt it???

Of course, my secondary is /kin, so i think i would respecc this combo 1 day (coz i always need the end, and the downtime it has is a bit killer for me), but if u can pick both storms, u could do the ice/dark combo with the ice/ set only, and that is much dmg and fun

Enjoy it, and Peace.

Fire / Fire dominators rule. I think a regen scrapper I fought in RV-event was pretty suprised when I held and killed him in less than 10 secs.

Their damage output in Warburg and RV is simply fantastic and this is the build I would make if I could be bothered to level a villain for PvP. The reason I prefer fire as primary is cause they have the best damage and the awesome smoke which is IMO one of the best crowdcontrol power if your trying to take on multible foes.

[/ QUOTE ]

I gotta say that in RV-event i rolled too a fire/fire dominator. I played her like 2 hours (i wanted to test many toons) and when i finished i saw at my 'reputation' and i saw it was like 20, far higher than any1.

Of course i was killed plenty times (hmm, like 10 times in 2 hours??), i wasnt teaming anytime, and i suspect i got that coz the imps were rampaging like crazies over the big wars... But, man, 20 in 2 hours is just nice, at least for me, a total n00b in pvp

Peace.

Totally agree with the last argumentation of Sinergy-X, but just 1 thing...

I would like to go a bit further in ur explanation: as a teamer, i like to play my toons depending in the team i am, so, if im in a 3brutes/1corr/1dom(me) group, i would spam mostly control, and this dont makes me a controller. If im in another kind of team, i just adapt my way to play to get the better for my team... This is, imho, the best way to teaming and play...

The problem is that, if u make a toon with just 1/2 power of ur prim or sec set, u are just reducing urself the plenty ways u can play it.

I try to build my toons as flexible as i can, mostly seeing in soloing missions, and then i try to get a team, and enjoy the game, making my teamm8s life much easier... If the team needs me to kill mobs, i will do it (try it at least ). If they need support, i will do it, without any problem...

If i build my toon only with assaults powwers, or only with control powers, i will be suxin air when i found a team that need me other thing that im built for...

Thats just my opinion. No intention in being rude.

Peace.

Ahh, tactics

Im gonna tell u what i always did when i played my dominator grav/psi lvl38...

Target enemy. Stay behind a wall. Wormhole all of the pack to a wall.

With this tactic, u will have them packed, knockedbacked and disoriented all of them in a wall, undeffensed all of them... Then i just spam the attacks/controlls powers as demand the situation.

Add this the other situables powers if things go wrong (DS,GDF,...) and a mini-dominator pet (singularity) and u will have a cakewalk at any dificulty lvl.

PS: WORMHOLE = Tricky power... TP FOE + KNOCKBACK + DISORIENT in only 1 power...

PSS: the shame is u need to go until lvl26 without it, and unslotted, isnt so nicer than it could be.

BTW, im neither with the inmobs, as other ppl said b4... and, man, AoE inmob = aggro magnet = nice faceplant. Just skip them

Tnx again for ur responses...

Sin: i respeced into the leaping pool for the hate of mezzs... as a dominator, i have played without any protection (besides BFs), and i have been very pissed off when any1 just stopped my mindcrazyboombasticchainofnodmgDOOM... anyway, i think the leapin pool is for me, i will stick with it for a time.

Also, u said ur not with the toggles as a /kin, meanwhile the solution u gave me is another toggle (hover), much end hunger than CJ (remember, acrobatics mostly time off, only on when i see mezzes around)... No intention in being rude, just it has no sense for my toon, imo

Synestra: ey, freeze ray is worth to 6 slot it?? I mean, i got it 2acc, 2holddur, and im really happy with it, thinkin on more slots if they r necesary... The way u told me the perma hold in bosses is making me to think if i would 6 slot it...

Ah, u both guys, tnx for ur responses again, i went for AIM, and yeah, im happy with it

Peace.

Hi Phantom,

First of all, i would suggest to go to the forums guides (US and EU forums) and check about the sinergy of both sets (fire/kin and rad/kin)...

As far as I have heard, the idea of this sets are:

* fire/kin = AoE DOOM. Not much defense, much dmg. U will have problms to control enemies, but what better control than death...

* rad/kin = Nice sinergy. All ur rad powers do -def = u hit more = easier to hit ur kins powers. Also some utilities powers.

IMHO, i have an ice/kin toon (lvl28 rite now) and im loving it as far as i can, easy to teaming, nice to soloing (including EBs). For the way i feel so powerfull, i think u dont need the higher dmg set as for primary, u should need 1 set that provides u some defense, so i would go for rad/kin...

Well, hope ive helped u a bit... BTW, both sets are cool, so u cant fail...

Peace.

Tnx both for ur responses. Yeah, Synestra, im with u AIM is the choosen power, but all those nice powers makes me doubt...

BTW, sin, tnx for ur response, I decided to go for the leaping pool mainly for the mezz protection (inmob, kb and hold), but it happened sometimes im running low end, and then, i just switch off the toggles, and go ahead.

But mainly, becoz i want to test this toon in pvp, and the leaping pool is the best rite there (that and some BFs).

This reason is why i was thinking in taking Aim

Just the last though: Should be ok pick blizzard only? or should i grabb blizard and ice storm for totally AoE destruction??

Hmm, doubts, many doubts...

Peace.

Hi all,

Just 1 fast question: Im lvling an ice/kin corr (FreshHunter, for those i have played with) and im liking her so far. I have played b4 a dominator to lvl38, and anothers corrs, so i know how this works...

My problem is that I have hit lvl28, and Im not sure what power select. My current build is:

ICE: Ice bolt, Ice Blast, Freeze Ray, BIB
KIN: Transfusion, Siphon power, Siphon Speed, Speed Boost.
Pools: hurdle, health, stamina, combat jumping, SJ, acrobatics, hasten.

So now, the options i got are:

* Ice storm: PvE will be boosted.
* Aim: PvP mainly purposes.
* Increase Density: Cool to buff m8s.
* Inertial Reduction: Nice to unsupreseable movement.
* SuperSpeed: for the stealth component.
* Leadership pool, im thinkin on it, assault lvl28, tactics lvl30.

Each one has its pros/cons, so i would like to know which power would u pick.

And finally, i will start the thread giving my opinion: I would go for... AIM. I feel its the nxt power i should grab, looking at my build.

Any others thoughs? Tnx for ur responses.

Peace.

Yeah, u would need a team... the problem is that teams dont need us, thats the problem...

Also, the solo-way CoV is designed...

Peace.

As far as i have played this AT, I feel like 'God-Mode-On' when i press the happy button. I mezz the double of time, x1.5 mag, and doubles my dmg... That is a real good buff. I dont usually have problems in building my dom bar, so i feel this is a good improve.

Add Fiery Embrace or Aim to this hell and u will be outdamaging most of the ATs, with holds, stuns, knocks in ur arsenal, plus mezz protection...

Its just wow, i think...

PS: if u hit the domination button in pvp, the controller should face ur mezz protection, so contaiment doesnt count... Its like a BF available... cool, man, cool
