She's lvl 30 so far, but that's the kind of thing I'm aiming for. Not sure about some of the slotting yet. I'd like to get hover in there somewhere, but there's nothing I hate enough to want to drop. So far. How does this look?

Opinions/suggestions/maniacal laughter welcome!

Will only comment on the /rad side. You seem to be a bit heavy on the endred slots, but with Stamina, AM and later Conserve Power, you should be fine moving some of these elsewhere.

- Rad Infection: 3 thtdbf and only 1 endred
- Accel Metab: 3 recharges (and 3 endmodif)
- Lingering rad: only one slow since enhances only affect movement (not regen). Would also add 1 or 2 recharges
- EM Pulse: might need 2 accuracy. Slot recharges instead of endred. Some people slot endmodif for the endurance drain, but that's a personal choice.
- For Temp Invulnerability, change an endred for a dmgres.

Hope some of this helps!

That's great, thank you!

Rad Infection was slotted for pre-stamina argh days. I'll switch those endreds for something more debuffy. I appreciate the help, and I'll keep it in mind!

I get by with 3 acc debuff and 3 def debuff with RI, cos I like never missing

Its an END hog mind, so other things have to pay the penalty.

I would have thought choking cloud a more attractive option earlier on for you given its holding power. Team with a good aggro magnet tank (mmm Ice tank + Rad user mmmmm) and its wonderful.

Shamless plug time! Take a look at my grav/kin guide for the Gravity Control side of things.

Thanks for all the help!

FireKitty - love the guide. Certainly taking it into account.

Cognito - I'm kinda torn about the Choking Cloud power. I've seen a lot of people say it's not very good, but I want to try it for controlleriness. Might swap its position with EMP, not sure yet. Probably depends what mood I'm in by the time I hit 38. Good to know it has some fans!

Choking power heh? well its a bit on/off. It either is worse than useless or better than great and it all depends on one thing... are you teaming with an aggro sucking tank

With so many tanks not taking taunt, skranking and IMO being thoroughly useless, its a bit weak until later levels.

Basically, my tactic is this: Anchor debuffs on someone next to tank, run to the anchor (and the tank), and put on choking cloud. The logic is that anything you aggro with choking cloud will hopefully be drawn to the tank instead, and even if it does attack you will be debuffed. Under such circumstances choking power is amazing... you will never get such control in your life, about 50% of everything around you held at any one time.

DO NOT USE when no (good) tank, DO NOT USE when lots of AoE flying around.

So its like many powers, use it wisely. IMHO a lot of players blindly spam all of there powers - dont - only use ones that work for the team. IE as a rad user you dont want a storm user spamming gale "because it keeps them away from me", or a fire user spamming rain of fire "because i do the damage dood!" (unless a sassy controller like yourself hits AoE before the rain etc etc). Hey this is long winded but I like choking power, only use it in the correct situation though.

AoE hold/immob is so good when rain of fire/ice come down.

That sounds like good advice! I'll be sure to keep it in mind. Good tactics are always handy to know. Sometimes you just need to know the best situations to use these things in! And if I hate it, I can always respec it out.

I'll try anything once. Thanks for the tips!
