Ghost Widow's holds
Mag 100. And it does Negative damage, not S/L/P.

Frak, I thought it was psionic. I got better defense against Negative Energy damage thanks to IO set bonuses but it certainly wasn't enough to overcome GW's assault.
GW's hold is meant to be impossible to protect yourself against, aside from avoiding it entirely. Unfortunately, the way certain game mechanics must work, an ally stacking Clear Mind (or similar) on you can make you immune to the Hold portion of the attack.

Yeah, I wasn't in the mood for teaming last night. So I just dropped the mission and continued the arc I was on from there. I've managed to remain in a stalemate with certain AVs with that tank, but an EB Ghost Widow is just a total nightmare!
It's not auto-hit, so, stocking up on defense insp would mean she can't hit you to hold you. Or, you can stock up on oranges resists so that the damage doesn't kill you. Or fill up on damage insps and then drop a Shivan and turn off your taunt aura. Let the Shivan take the heat and the first use of the hold. When she holds the Shivan, pop every single red insp and then finish her off at your damage cap before the hold can recharge.

Just out of curiosity, what are the magnitudes of Ghost Widow's holds?
I had an encounter with her as a level 52 EB, playing my level 50 WP/DB Tank. With 3010 hitpoints, ~1.6% regen, ~4% recovery, rather decent levels of resistance to (and defense against) smashing, lethal, and psionic damage (using the impervium armor set is likely overkill with a WP tank, but I was going for a theme!), dispatching most foes is a cakewalk. Ghost Widow was most definitely not, and I might as well have had no hold protection at all. Bother!
