Perma-dom.
[edited to add] They had to have killed something to get it rolling but once they got it started it keeps going.
total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Is it possible? I've seen it (at least I think I did) come up on a few people lately without them fighting. How is this possible with them not doing anything to get it to come up???
Halp meh!

You can set a power to activate as soon as it is recharged by holding Ctrl and clicking it. This doesn't work with toggles or interruptible powers.
For having Domination up permanently, you need to have enough Global Recharge on the character so that Domination recharges before the current application expires. Then it will just keep activating itself automatically.

Not necessarily. Whirling Hands for example requires no target.
Jeeze... I need to get some of that then. Thanks for the replies.
Now I need to find out some cheep IO sets to get for this.

Not as "necessary" as it used to be since they removed the damage buff from Domination and gave it Dominators full time with Issue 15.
The mez mag and duration increase, mez protection, and end bar refill are still nice, though.
edit: I don't think it can be done "cheaply." The lowest cost perma Dom build I have seen runs close to a billion infamy.
New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Well, it can be run cheaper then 1 billion.
With some Knockback powers (including things like Kick, Whirlwind, etc) you can four slot those with one of the KB IOs and get 7.5% Recharge for it. That can go a long way to cheaply getting Perma-Dom (My Fire / Psy did that, and ended up with I think 4 powers slotted with that)
Should you put the effort into Merits, you can flat out buy the LotG +7.5% Recharge IOs, and that doesn't cost any inf to do, but can be expensive time wise.

Way high. My dom was at 45% or so recharge by the time she hit 50 just off the 100 million or so that dropped on the way there... another 100 million or so past it (plus some merits that she earned on the way up) got her perma'd. And this was with only a single power as an IO mule, no 'yeah, I slotted every power in /energy with knockback sets for extra recharge' stuff. It can be very set-dependent, though.
Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.

That's Kinetic Crash. Four pieces gives Knockback Protection. Six pieces gives the recharge bonus.

With a lot of penny pinching, working the market and lucky drops, I managed to get a perma Dom build for less than 11 mil.

If only we could have Domination and Hasten set to auto fire that would be great.

Oops, my bad! I knew there was something I liked about the fourth IO set bonus though!
...
That means I ended up six slotting things like Kick, Whirlwind, Bonfire, and Telekinetic Thrust with a KB IO Set. No matter how you say it, it still sounds bad. But for Perma-Dom, it was worth it.

Slotting TK Thrust with Kinetic Crash isn't a terrible idea, really. Power Push is my Kinetic Crash "mule" on my Energy/Energy, and I love the 36ish magnitude knockback.

Since i15 Power Push is a scale 1.6 attack and can do heavy damage

This.
It isn't nor has it ever been expensive to get perma dom. I do believe it took 60mil to perma my Fire/Elec and that was splurging on Soulbound's for my Mu pet. If you only tried to get things from the market and paying full price for it then I could see it being expensive. There are way to many venues to get what you need without the market.

Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.
My Plants/Energy Dominator has it pretty easy on his quest for Perma Dom. Once again, that is thanks to having enough powers to where he can get 5 complete K-Crash sets slotted (still need to get that last set, which I'll do when I'm ready to play him again.)
I posted his build a while back elsewhere on these forums (not sure if it's been purged since then), and was told that he is very close to perma now according to his plan. I will need to review it again to see just what final few tweaks need made.

Great, because I need more reasons to respec...
However, the high KB magnitude is great when fighting non-melee/non-permaDoms in PvP. It's the only "reliable" control I really have access to on that build.

[/ QUOTE ]Kinetic Crash still does some decent damage enhancement. It's not ED-capped, but it's a decent 70%-ish, IIRC.

If perma-domination is your goal then do not forget about the presence pool. Challenge and provoke can be cheaply 4 slotted with the perfect zinger set for 5% recharge each. Intimidate and invoke panic can be 5 slotted with glimpse of the abyss for 6.25% each and the 9% accuracy you also get from that set is really nice for your AoE controls. (Invoke panic right after terrify has become one of the signature moves for my currently level 44 mind/thorns who has been perma for a couple of levels now.)
Also, do not forget about water spout from leviathan mastery for a single slot of force feedback chance for recharge proc. Throw it into a good size group for at least one boost.

Dayjobs can help a bit too
The timelord daylord Accolade (for Cimeroran & Ouroboros day job badges) gives +recharge and the Predator badge for PvP zones also gives +recharge.
The empowerment station in VG base can squeeze a bit more +recharge out as well.
I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):
