I'm stuck with Mind Slotting


Cynic

 

Posted

I want to play my Mind/Energy Dom more and actually have a villain for base raids, but (and its a big but), I have no idea how to slot Mind powers.

I want all the powers, but not Lev, I figure my secondery can give me enough damage.

Me being the controller that I am, wants to slot Single Target and AoE mes powers with 2 Acc, 2 Recharge and 2 Hold/Confuse/Fear etc, but that means 6 slotting 8 powers, which I can't do.

Only thing I do know, is that the ST and AoE Sleeps will only need 2 Acc and 2 Recharge at the most, since sleep last long nough as it is, and in teams they will be attacked before it ends.

Any help please.

Pritty please.

With suger on top.

My mind dom is slotted to be a controller, i only have one secondary power

But Yes you will need 2 accs in each attack to ensure you're effective, if you're determined to have all the attacks, and in the face paced action of a raid, I'd not bother with the duration enhances and just go 2/2 with acc and recharge. And get levitate instead of single target sleep, so much better in PvP.

Dominators are horrible AT for slotting, the need about 10% more slots than they get

I still need more slots for my dom, if anyone has any they wouldn't miss.....................


"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"

Yeah.. only my triform peacebringer is worse. Things are a bit better now that I have dropped a few attacks from the secondary, though.

How many slots do you have availible?
I can't seem to login so I can't check my slotting but I beleive I only 6 6lotted
Domination/Total Domination/Mass Confusion
I'm not really sure how total dom and mass confuse would work for a base raid, How long does the raid last etc? as I have 3 slots of recharge in both (that with hasten, one of the powers is usually availible for each bunch of mobs in pve).

Imo if you wanna remove slots from somewhere then it's the sleeps (as you suggested). Confuse (duration seems pretty long anyway, recharge is fast (but will give you time to use your other powers)) maybe 2 acc, 1 recharge,1 confuse. Lasts 30 seconds, rechrge 6 seconds. Thats 5 people you can thereticly keep confused(though doutful)

You can probably drop 2 slots from Terrify, a really nice power but I'm not sure you'd actually need the fear durations. You would need 2 acc (pvp red accuracy and it has inherant -acc), lasts for 30 seconds, 2 recharge brings it down to about 25 seconds so you can probably keep them perma (unless you miss..).

Well PvP has diffrent requirements to PvE
I'd sugest that you want to slot your single target hold
2acc 2hold 2recharge or 2acc 3hold 1recharge + hasten
You need this power up and stackble on hold resistant people.
Your single target confuse should be slotted too, some of thoes hold resistant people don't have confuse resistance (make sure you hold people running tactics as this gives resistance now) Prime targets for confuse are buffers/debuffers and taunters
Slot Fear, it's the least resisted mes power and very good in PvP.

I've not done any base raids yet so I don't know how good AoE will be, generaly in PvP people don't bunch as much as in PvE so your not going to hit many with AoE.

Well for my mind energy dom im focusing on the control side first and then i can worry about the attacks later. The must have powers to take and slot proberly should be:

Dominate 2acc, 2hold, 2rechg
Mass Dominate same
Terrify 2acc, 1fear, 3 rechg
Mass Confu 2acc, 2confu, 2 rechg
And telekentics 3 endred

27 slots if im not wrong but when you think f the overall picture theirs like 67 at 50 i think. thats not much would recomend a build but too lazy at the mo

I agree that PvP and PvE have different requirements:

PvE should be slotted with duration, as that gives you more time to damage the mobs before the power wears off.
PvP, on the other hand, tends to end with the use of a Break Free: thus, it is better to slot for recharge than for duration as that enables you to hit your opponent more often with the hold/sleep/other mez power.

Just for information, my dominator has her main single hold slotted 2 acc/2 dam/2 hold duration, area hold is 2 acc/1 dam/2 duration, mass confuse is 2 acc/3 confuse duration/1 recharge.
