First Robotics/Dark Miasma

I've never played a /Dark Miasma Mastermind up to a high level, so I don't have much experience with slotting. Any comments for this build?

Looks good to me, but something that sticks out... Why leave Shadow Fall until level 49?

I couldn't live without Shadow Fall on my Ninjas/Dark - But perhaps it's just personal preference :-P

Well as I said, I've never had Dark Miasma up to a high level before so I'm not sure how good it is, but a stealth toggle doesn't really appeal to me

Some suggestions for SO slotting of Dark Miasma powers based on how I played my Thugs/Dark:

- Tar Patch: 3 Rechgs asap. A slow if you have a spare slot, but it's not that important for PvE.
- Darkest Night: 3 Tht_Debuf 1-2 EndRdx. It's a major Tht as well as dmg debuff.
- Fearsome Stare: can be slotted for Tht_Debuf, Fear, or a bit of both. In any case slot 2 Acc and preferably 1-2 Rechg to spam/stack it.
- Dark Servant: you'll need 3 Rechgs to make it perma unless you have Hasten. I tend to enhance the Tht_Debuf and then slot either Heal or Immob.
- Soul Tentacles: I would suggest at least one Range enhance, since it's rather short. It's more important than EndRdx imo.
- Shadow Fall: I find it very useful (I use Super Speed with it to ghost) and slot it 2 EndRdx 3 DmgRes.

[/ QUOTE ]
It's not just a (PbAoE) stealth toggle, but also a group shield with 15% resistance (base) to psi, energy and negative energy, fear protection/resistance, as well as a bit of defence!

You have some points.

Is this build a bit better?

Looks good. I would still swap 2 EndRdx from Darkest Night and Shadow Fall to Tht_Debuf and DmgRes respectively, and only if you are having real endurance problems add a 2nd EndRdx to each (you might just go for some +recov from IO sets at some point).
