Slotting VS for pvp.

What is the general consensus for voltaic sentinel? I only have 1 enhancement I can throw in there. Either thinking a purple pet dmg 53% or a lvl 50 end IO for -end.

for PvP...not sure, but 4 slotting Soulbound will make him have some nice recharge and damage on his attack...giving you a free +33 DPS to your attacks

Does the recharge effect how fast VS uses powers, or how fast I can resummon him. Since he is out for a minute, and only has a minute recharge time, then that wouldn't help.

I am pretty sure pets are no longer getting recharge bonuses to their attack chains.

He's not worth slotting for recharge really, not after the pet recharge nerf in I14. However you could still slot him with 4x Soulbound Allegiance for the +HP and +dam set bonuses if you wanted.

no, soulbound still buffs the recharge of his attack.

I went on after i14 and he still fired the same rate as he did before for me

Does this affect fire imps ? The link you provided further down is to a very long thread.

3 or 4 Soulbounds would be ideal

VS isn't worth taking unless you have some slot's in it..even then its pretty worthless.

if you just have it for the defiance damage buff, then just put a end reduction or a accuracy in it

with only one slot in it, i would just take a different power like Swift/Hurdle


perma jump is ---> /up 1

its not worthless, it adds to ST dps

for example, my chain of C.Bolt-L.Bolt-C.Bolt-E.Fence-C.bolt-L.bolt (etc, etc) only pumps out like 162 dps.

add VS's def buff and it's own attack (with soulbound) it jumps to a sustained 195

I agree that VS is not worthless. Even prior to getting a couple Soulbound in it, I found it useful for helping finish off minions I'd dropped AoE chains on and for upping my ST damage against bosses.
