Quote:Psychic Scream now does more damage than Psychic Shockwave. It's a cone though, so it won't be as easy as jumping in the middle and fire. It's still awesome though.Originally Posted by dudeman1298
I really hope that's not the case, as I really love to farm with dominators. It's just a lot more fun to do for me. I do have a SS/SD brute as a beastly farmer, but I definitely preferred my dom.
Perhaps I just need to tweak my build a bit as I pretty much relied on PSW and drain psyche only from the /Psi set. Any other powers worth using now? -
Quote:Crushing Field is merely an AoE immob, which doesn't stop them from attacking you. Considering your Psi, I'd assume you'll be right in the middle of the mobs, so something more likely to prevent damage to you (Wormhole or GDF) would be pretty useful.Originally Posted by JanusFrs
No, Crushing Field has about 45 secs rech or so, but nevertheless, thank you very much for your replies, but while we're at it, do you have any suggestions to the combo Grav/Psi? I'm planning on getting leaping and fitness as pools and mu mastery as patron, do you have any suggestions?
As far as power pools are concerned, I always consider Hasten pretty useful, and nearly mandatory if your going for Perma-Dom. -
Well, Wormhole is essentially your only reliable AoE Control. Gravity Distortion Field (AoE hold) has a 4 minute recharge, and a pretty lackluster duration. I'd think you would feel pretty anemic on control w/o Wormhole. It's your "up every spawn" power in Gravity.

Quote:Well, according to the "Show Details" window in-game, Mind Control's powers register as "Psionic". As opposed to Char registering as "Fire, Ranged". So, for example, Dominate would check against Psionic Defense to see if it were hit. Char would check against either Fire or Ranged (depending on if the toon were positional or elemental defense). Most attacks have and elemental and positional component to it.Originally Posted by SusieBot
I must be mis-understanding what "positional" means, because that makes no sense to me. What does positional/non-positional mean?
So, against a Super Reflexes character, Dominate would essentially pierce right through any amount of Positional defense (Ranged, Melee, AoE), since it doesn't check against that. -
Quote:As far as I know, all of Mind Control's powers are non-positional, instead registering as "Psionic". Telekinesis is a toggle, so has no "attack type" assigned to it.Originally Posted by SusieBot
I don't believe that any of the Mind powers, aside from Telekinesis, are non-positional. I'd wager that they are ranged or AoE attacks.
Your experience may be in the difference between Positional defense (SR Scrappers) and Damage Type defense (Ice or Invuln Tankers). Mind is strong against Damage Type defenses, as relatively few power sets contain Psionic defense. However, against positional defense, your ranged attacks are as crappy as everyone else's. Would that explain what you are seeing? -

Fix'd that for you.
