what happens when immob meets ice slik? they randomly slide off?

One thing springs to mind, telekenesis and any form of immob oh the fun : you try to push a nicly stacked group into a corner and hold em all nice but sicne htier immobed they fly off in all sorts of random directions :P.

well my attack cycle involves spamming 3 ice spells as fast as humanly possible :P not much planning too it really.

Looks like I'll have to give up on this idea . Maybe I'll give it a try when the new zone is aviailible .

This power deals no damage, but if done discretely, the targets wont even be aware of your presence.

Plus when they are cowering in fear they also get a good hit to accuracy, which if slotted properly means they will not hit you or your team mates. So its a pretty amazing skill.

Oooh, wans't aware of this, might put some acc debuff in there now . I still think sleep is [censored], I like your idea of using it as a follow up to an aoe thgouh, that is a smashing idea.

My friend just made a mind dom to team with my new fire/dark corr and it works really well (considering I know what all the mind stuff does). I even like sleep . Given the choice between aoeing and wkaing the sleepers up and not aoeing thoguh.. :P I know what I;d pick. So I still think mass sleep to be a little weak in this regard. Does sleep/mass sleep agro (never taken either)?. Can see mass sleep being an excelent opener to terrify/total dom if it;s a no agro thing.

Yeah I know, hence why I'm really put off dropping stam .

Oh yeah my planned build has 4 toggles :P (3 end red in each), end goes like a yoyo but never run out (with transference every 10 secs or so). Thinking of stam now :'(

I'm hoping to finally have a character without stamina (silly stam..) The only char I have that I can feasably not have stamina is my ice/kin corruptor. I've been very hesitant to spec it out as I originally made this character to pvp (sirens specificly so I lose transference (35 for corruptors)). I would lose transference whilse there and thus have some really bad end issues (hasten/sithen speed/2 toggles+no stam = no end..).

Has anyone tried a stam less build in sirens? Does it work? I mean it's not like the sustained combat of pvm so perhaps. I really can't check this out on test unfortunatly. I'd really love to try a stam-less build but currently I get low on end even with end red in everyhitng and no toggles :P.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Not even sure where you get the slots to 6 slto things :/ I can squeeze in 5 slots in things. I do like the idea of millions of damage thoguh =).

I double slot on soem if I have the space and things like slow recharge stuff.

No idea what the blaster is like. I;ve an ice/kin corr and it works really good thoguh .

my usual slotting is acc/dmg/endRed/rechRed I rarely slot single target attack more than 4 (unless I really have notign better to do with them). I'll have to think about trying more damage.

efficient in what way? is it better to have say 2 damage rather than 1 damage 1 acc?

am I like the only person who rarely ever uses more than one damage SO in anyhting? :P (exception ebing aoe/nukes).

Fiery Embrcace and Build up do stack.Hitting them both then doing fire breath/fire sword circle with high fury would be nice . If I had to choose one or the other I'd be tempted to just take build up since it add +acc too. With Blazing Aura though the 30 seconds of inc fire damage would be nice thoguh.. :P

Fire breath has quite a short range and quite a small cone from my experience. I got rid of it though so I can't comment. In large groups it would probably be quite nice but if you need to make space you could drop it np.

I wouldn't like to drop incinerate nor scrorch :/. Haven't played without them though so can't comment much. air Superiority is a really nice filler for the knockdown. Works great for bosses, Wouldn't like it to replace Inicinerate.

For slotting well depends on your end issues the more +res/def the merrier (max 3). I have 3 dmg red SO's in fire/plasma shield and 1 end red. They are really cheap toggles as it is so it;s better putting any extra slots into your combat jumping/acrobatics/blazing aura.

Don't take burn. It;s [censored]. Combat jumping takes care of immob protection nand the damage isn't too good and everythign just runs off anyway. I think theres a htread about it here some where and the general opinion it's not worth having.

Apart from that everyhting else is alright. If you need to make room well could drop either build up of fiery imbrace, could also drop fiery aura. Sure is nice to have but with breath of fire/fire sword circle you wont have any problem agroing. If you do want the aura then consider dropping fire breath.

Ice/Kin is a total winner solo and really great for teaming too. Definatly suggest this one, so much fun. Can take down bosses/EB solo without too much trouble.

MY attack chain is just fine without hasten. It would help with consume but you can easily go without it and still keep the atatcks coming. Stamina is pretty much needed to a brute imo . I frequently get low even with stam and plenty of end red in toggles/ppattacks. Consume is usually around when my end gets low. It's definatly worth having but can not replace stamina imo.

I just made a Fire/Fire mainly for more of a thematic purpose than anything else. It's the first brute I've played and I'm liking it. I'm even considering training it more than I do my Stalker.

I had a stalker, then I made the brute and never played the silly stalker ever again :P

I certainly feel weaker than /invul and /stone but having said don't feel gimped at all . The heal is good, the end recovery is good, the extra build up (fiery embrace) is nice to have. Your pretty much immune to them flame throwers :P.

I havn't got as far as the self res yet but I can see that coming in pretty handy, res + healing flames+consume and your good to go. Only 2 toggles which both recharge pretty fast. Down side is having to get acrobatics for the knock back protection.

In short, it;s not gimped :P /inv and /stone can take more of a beating. I can't really compare dark/energy.

I can get my end down low but I don't really run out(unless I use TK). Got end red in everyhitng though.

I did the second respec with a group the other day and started getting tells off some of them sayign they thought I was brilliant and my holds were awsome (expecially when I hit that Domination button). Felt pretty nice to hear :P. I certainly don't think Dom is weak (thought it undoutable varies between power sets) In fact it is probably my favourite out of all the AT's. Tough choice between this and my corruptor though.

Hmm I have to disagree, I don't really die very often at all :/ (maybe stealth is helping with agro). Apart from stealth thats the only defence I have.

I agree witht he domination bit, it is really sucky when you die and it goes :P. I would love to see that changed =). I don't really mind it degrading with time but sur eI'd like it if it didn't.

In the earlier levels I did see plenty of dominators face planting (usually by takign the alpha strike). I don't really know how you play but if your dying alot I really think you should reconsider how you play a little :P. I'm not really dying anymore than I do with any other char unless I do soemthign stupid (like agroing everyhitng :P).

It's long been considered gimped as a blaster primary. I have an Ar/Dev blaster but I've never tried any other blaster so I can't comment, seemed ok to me. As for corruptors I've only seen one or two also.

Can't really say for sure but I beleive it is certainly one of the weakest. Having said that I've never tried it on a corr so who am I to comment :P. I geuss if your expecting to be godly you'll be let down, If your just happy with what ever it'll be fine =).

Just have to wait for a reply off someone whos tried it at a high level .

It's really off putting when someone just pops a break free. Having said that though I go through loads of breakfrees and it is a hassle to go get mrore all the time so I don't. I bet alot of Heros don't bother either.

Not pvped much but I usually jump in when other attack and try to hold defenders/controlers. Really helps everyone else when you jump in and hold a stormy. I usually just keep away from tanks/scrapper, Can hold them but killing them is another matter :P.
