Dark/Rad and DeBuffs


Cynic

 

Posted

It's me again with some weird build.

This time i decided to make a mutant/magic heroine which is basicly focusing on curses (debuffs). I made a build in Hero Builder and it says you can put DefDeDuff enhancements in Radiation Blast set.

Here's the sample build and waiting for your advices. I am total stranger to Dark Miasma and used once Radiation Blast and throw the hero away because x-ray beam was getting on my nerves.

Thanks in advance. If this build will be okay too, my new little SG V6 will be completed.

6-slot twilight grasp, it's great.
DN would propably be fine with 2 EndRdx.
Throw a rech or two in fearsome.
6-slot petrifying gaze or don't take it.
6-slot cosmic burst, great damage, great debuff, great stun.
Don't bother with ToHit buffs in aim if you're PvE'ing, just slot rech.
DS should be perma with no rech.
Slot soul drain for rech, not Tohit.
WHERE is tar patch? Stackable -res AND a great slow, it's a must-have power.

Also, I'd say the amount of DEF debuffs you have is over the top, you should IMO slot one or two attacks (Irradiate and the snipe, propably) for debuff and either not slot the rest or slot them for damage (Or possibly stun in the case of CB).

Heh looks like i will use all my primaries by this way. Okay here is the final build. I throw out Aim and take OG at lvl 50.

Here's my final build under the light of your wisdom Max.

I found Proton Volley was only usefull at the lower levels, at higher levels I didn't find the damage it did worth the time it took. That said you dont have a damage attack from your epic like my Thuderstrike so you probably need it

I'd go at least 2 fears in Fearsome Stare and not worry about the tohit debuff, Darkest Night will be pleanty against all but AVs, and then you'll be using your heal off them to debuff them further and howling Twightlight for the same


"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!"

Tar Patch: slot 3 Rechgs first (a Slow only if you can spare slots later) and take it around lvl 4 or so.

Okay but i have one question, will i be in dire need of hasten just like my Mind troller. Powers recharge rate seems reasonable for me. Maybe i should change it with TP enemy. But if i recall correctly TP Enemy also have aggro chance so that means i can cause aggro while trying to raise fallen heroes.

Hasten will be quite useful although probably less crucial than for a controller. I wouldn't bother with TP Foe: if you have Recall friend, you can position yourself (and your team-mate) close enough to a foe to use the rez (which aggroes anyway since it is also a stun and debuff).

Thanks again. Changed the levels of Tar patch Recall Friend and pushed Hasten to lvl 35.
