Wheres all the Dominators?
Have you ever heard when you are on a team "Look! A Dominator!" ? I dunno about you, but I hear it all the time.
If it makes you feel better, my next toon will be a Dom
Yep very small amount of doms and they a great! got one sitting at 40 atm :P just been playing alts
Got one sitting at 40 cause there's nothing I want to do with it.
Not so great in the EB/AV world of 40-50. With those random triangles they're just a low damage squishy on the team
"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.

spider, brilliant!"
had a break from game and from my domi at the moment. How's ol' git doing?
Cynic is right on the money. I think we all had a brief time of great fun around the late 30. However in the early 40s the amount of Elite Bosses e.t.c. just brings back the pre-20s world of pain.
But being a sucker for punishment I have painfully to clawed my way up to 42, and have decided that despite the problems I am going to make a go of it

Only dom I have bothered to play is on Union, lvl 24. Soloing with him doesnt really interest me, he has more than 2 bars worth of debt too..
I had fun in my 40s but it was because of some nice storylines and active teaming that was going on right after I7 launch. The purple triangles were a huge problem, though. It seems really unfair that primarily team support AT like dominator is so intentionally gimped in the one type of encounter where teams most need support.
Well, one of those Dom's would have been mine !!!
Insane enough to restart him from pre-i7 level 40 .
My Dom' is hands down the most fun and rewarding character I have played so far, and I've enjoyed all my alts a lot.
Loving taking him through all the great i7 content!
I've held and beaten down every EB I've come across so far .
Pre-i7, I did pretty good and I think made great support vs AVs, but I guess I'll be taking a second look at it 40-50 .
I know a guy with a level 50 dominator... he likes a challenge. Me, I tried one, got it to 10 - but it just seems hideously weak. Sure, you're a steamroller while Domination is up, but the rest of the time, you're just a poor man's controller, with a half-[censored] blaster-set instead of the buff/debuff set... basically, everything you could possibly want can be provided better by another AT. Masterminds get more and better pets, Brutes get more damage - and defenses too, whoo! - Corruptors are better for team support, and do more damage to boot... and obviously, if you wanna be stealthy and pick enemies off one by one, the Stalker is supreme.
So yeah, the only real reason to play a Dominator would be for the challenge.
I've got a dominator, he's level 29. I can never get a team going so I then log on as someone else! I need to get him up to high levels ASAP!
Be nice, adopt a dominator today!
Well im level 36 Plant/ Fire and loving it too. Much more my sort of toon; trying to hold/mez/confuse everything in sight. Ok so I'm no damage machine; but neither is my defender. I guess it's just playing what you love, and for me thats being the squishiest with a very varied primary set; odd set of secondaries, and a whole host of Pool powers (first toon I've ever played that Stamina has not been needed at all).
Its true that AVs are difficult to do anything to, but I'm still in there with a Spirit Tree, pet, creepers, medicine, invis etc to help the team out. Plus we can always sort out the mobs around the AV and hold him for 25 out of every 75 seconds....
pvp is a different matter.... but I'm not built for that at all!
Mine also suffers more end issues than my brute

Dominators are like fat chicks .. nobody wants to be seen on one.

One here - Pyrechill Ice/Fire lvl 45 at the moment. Yup Avs are a pain, but I am having ten times more fun than I did with my scrapper. Sometimes its hard to find a team, but when you do its always an adventure...in the land of eek my holds keep missing

I think end is definately a problem for us doms. I am lucky having consume in /Fire but even so its a long wait with 3 recharges on it - and thats if it hits!

"Dominators are like fat chicks. They are a lot of fun but you wouldn't want your friends to see you on one".
Well, on Union we currently have an all-dom team running, I personally have 7 dominators at the moment, although pretty all low level.

Oh dont get me wrong I have 3 doms, I just have no plans to take any of them past 40

The arcs are great but the PPPs just ain't worth the slog - I'd rather get 2 or three things up to mid 30s.

LOL. I noticed that too but wasnt sure how to bring the subject up. Dom's are the best* AT in the game IMO
* Most fun, your definition of best may differ.

*waves* I play a dominator and I love it! Even at lvl 50 I continue onwards since its the most fun character Ive played and I have really developed an affinity with it.
If you see me online feel free to send me a /t! I like meeting other dominators, esspecially those with plant control.

Agreed! Best if your definition is a rewarding AT that has character, concept and personality. Best if you like interesting play with a very real sense of risk . Best if you like to think about your actions and to plan. Best if you like excitement, fun and a lot of reward for playing well .
I'm not finding Dominators any more of a chore to level than any other AT. Tbh, I'm levelling as quickly as my friends Corruptors, and frankly at times I'm levelling too quickly. CoV content is luuuuuurvely, and theres so much to take in .
Dominators aren't like "fat chicks" at all! They're sex kittens!
Like others got my Dom to 40 and due to too many alts have only puttered about the odd mish , i seem to have her to 43 not sure how i managed that?
I find soloing her very tough and a lot easier getting my Brute to 50 and now am enjoying my first MM who at 28 will probably get to 50 before my Dominator
I was looking online last night, and of over 250 villians on Defiant, only 14 were Dominators (8 of which were below lvl 10). Come on folks, what you got against the doms??
