Is there any point in taking both of them?
If not which one would you recommend to be the best one to take?
Thanks in advance [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

They don't stack and the recent changes to Invis suppression was the last straw for me. I recently respecced and dropped Group Invis altogether for Deceive. Best thing I ever did!

Steamy Mist is up all the time and although its just Stealth its good enough for getting around in PvE.

The Damage Resistance it provides (never slot it for Defense) is much better than the terrible defense Invis gives.

Stacked with Superspeed its as effective as Invis anyway I believe.

*Edit : The Damage Resist is vs Fire, NRG and Cold I believe?

Ahh I see..does Steamy Mist use alot of endurance?

Not a huge amount. I think I've 3 Dmg Resist and 1 end red in it (and Stamina) and its fine, no worries. Until Stamina you could just throw EndRed DOs into it.

as Carnifax says, steamy mist is up all the time, u can attack with it on and with ss is very good.

when i was respecing the other day i was deciding whether to drop steamy mist and take the concelment power pool instead, being able to attack with sm on was the main reason i kept it over concealment.

i have it 3 slotted with so endurance and 3 damage resistance, i keep it on all the time, but have noticed that in the early stages it does use alot of end.....

Chaos Controlling. Gotta love it. Make sure you have Freezing Rain too. PAs & Freezing Rain is just sickening. And you can have that combo by level 18 [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

If you don't have it get Deceive as soon as you can too. I spurned it for over a year before taking it recently and I've never had so much fun with a power. Managed to Confuse the Psychic Clockwork King AV with it yesterday as the opener to our assult. Talk about an easy kill.

I got deceive at lvl 8 love it.

Had confuse on my Mind troller and used it a few times on AV's..only trouble is some people won't wait for it to hit, which can get a bit annoying...
