Hmmm, well a hasrd one, well the 2nd and 3rd pwoers are shields for her team mates, so if she solos she should jsut leave em out, but apart fomr that you get some cool powers out of it, so much a variety that I can't remember em.
Well only 33 atm, but here are some comments. Sonic is mainly about affecting damage resistance, so you (and your team) hit harder and take less damage when hit. The first power is a single-target dmg res debuff (16%) so handy to use on bosses and such. The 2 shields are nice and protect against different types of damage so are great for teaming, but a bit of a pain to keep them up on large teams. Sonic Cage is a tricky one: the mob becomes intangible which means it cannot attack you, but you can't attack it either. It's useful when soloing or against a boss if you want to start with the minions first, but can really annoy your team-mates if you use it too much (also really annoying in PvP). Disruption Field is an ally-based dmg res debuff, so great to use on tankers/scrappers, but a bit of an endurance hog. Sonic Dispersion is a handy self shield which protects you and those close to you against all non-psi damage and Holds/Immob/Disorients. I haven't tried Sonic Repulsion, but it sounds like an ally-based Repel. Clarity is similar to Clear Mind and the last power is an AoE which does knockdown and reduces accuracy and defense. I guess the choice of powers mainly depends on whether she teams a lot or not (with /sonic, she probably does).

My Girlfriend has a mind/sonic controller at lvl 31, but hasn't used 1 power from sonic cuz she doesn't understand what they do.
Can you guys give me a simple discription of the use of the powers and whats best to take.
Thx in Advance.

Listen to Xan in the car.
My advice is take sonic dispersion and six slot it with 3 end reducers, 3 damage resists asap. What a great power! mez resistance and damage resistance for whole team!
Otherwise pretty much what has been said already. And to reiterate sonic repulsion is yuk.
