Ummm im going to take this build as of the opinion thats the order your going to take the powers as you level.
If so then get blind at level 1!!! Blind + Spectral wounds will be your main/only souce of dmg output until level 18!!!
Im guessing your building a team support toon since your emp (not that emps cant solo . . .they just easier in teams ), but without seeing slots i dont think there isnt anything that strikes out wrong
Although if you slot correctly you could possibly skip stamina for another power (hasten) since iv found illusion to be VERY endurance friendly compared to some of the other sets.
Otherwise nice build

Swap decieve and Blind round..

Here's my Jedi/Reality-Weaver (ill/emp) build:
I'm not happy with every choice I have made so far, but the basic concept works: Staying hidden/out of combat all the time, concentrating exclusively on team support.
When I do a good job, the enemy will never even know I was there.

1: Spectral Wounds &amp; Healing Aura
2: Heal Other
4: Blind (doubt I would take that one again)
6: Recall Friend
8: Flash (horribly slow recharge; a complete disappointment)
10: Resurrect
12: Superior Invisibility
14: Teleport
16: Float (for use with teleport)
Planned:
18 &amp; 20: Assault and Manovers
Afterwards: Clear Mind, Spectral Terror, more Healing, perhaps even some Medicine Skills

Slotting (current and planed):
Healing Aura &amp; Heal Friend: 3xHealing, 3xEndurance
Resurrect: 3xRecharge Reduction
Superior Invisibility: 3xEndurance
Manouvers: 3xDefense
Assault: 3xDamage
And a few others here and there.

Basic Strategies: Concentrate on healing, using my illusion powers mostly to stay out of sight. Teleport team when need be, for example taking fallen members out of combat for use of wakeys when resurrect was already used / is recharging.
Also useful to get slower team members quickly to entrance of next mission, or to pull them out from immediate danger.
Advantage: Always in demand, never seen EXP dept so far.
Drawback: Completely useless without a team to support.

I just woke up but.. Why no Regen Aura mate? I'd pick it over Flash.

Depends if you want to focus more on empath or troller. A troller without AoE control imo is lacking, but it's just my choice, doesn't mean it's the best option. If I decided to take Regen Aura I'd ditch resurrect instead of flash tho

Regen aura especially with power boosted is very nice for a troller meaning you can concentrate more on controlling than healing, but thats probably more relevent for an empath troller with a more active primary.

It affects straight-up Heals (Aid Other) and Endurance Boosts (Transference).
It doesn't affect +Regen (Regen Aura) or +Recovery (Speed Boost).

See here.

How about "n00bster"? Maybe "n00blet"?

*Pulls hood over the head and slowly walks away*

How many times has it been mentioned on these forums and ingame about power boosted regen?

Enough times for me to think it was true without actually checking.

Not one person pointed this out before.

My only reason for having power boost is now "gone". I'd rather control many than need to fort anyone anything extra.

My empath ain't my focal point in getting everything right on, or playing often and power boost is fairly new on me because in game terms I have only had it 6-8 hours.

For the STF I did not find power boost necessary or vengeance but at least I can't find it as a joy as it was to have now in believing the regen aura looked damn nice. Before I respecified power boost it in. It must of been already damn nice but I just hadn't played her for so long I couldn't remember.

*kicked vengeance into the hole on a sensible team*
*now kicks power boost into the hole on a sensible team*

Or should I check? CoD has lost my trust on certain things in terms of being out of date, wording catching me out and the possibility of the game changing behind our backs (enemy wise).


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

I can't test it myself having no empath, but it seems to make sense given the values for Regen Aura (500% +regen base). If you could Power Boost it, you would "out-regen" a regen scrapper with IH running. Heals and secondary aside, I still think it's great for empaths for using with Fort (sensible team) or Veng if you have it (not-so-sensible team).

If you want to test it I am available for next 30 mins on union.

Id imagine the tick rate would remain the same but the actual heal would of gone up +15% with a heal enhancement making a unnoticeable effect if it does effect RA though.

Its okay i can test it solo cant i.

PB or no PB its identical.
