dark/bot, defence/invis stacking

OK, I have a Bot/dark MM, and I'm trying to figure out what powers to go for in terms of wanting to play both PVP and PVE effectivly.
I want to get SJ as my travel power, preferably sooner than later.

I'm at level 9 at the moment, with the ability to choose my next power an upgrade to level 10 whenever I want.


Currently I don't have any attacks from either pool (but have crafted myself a hammer and pistol) so am completly dependant on my bot's wellbeing.

I have the first 3 powers from DM, Build and upgrade bot, and have Manuevers from leadership.


Manuevers provides +def to all, but i'm not sure how much defence it does.
Combat jumping is a +Def(all) for self, and if i'm not protected then the bots won't be much use.
Both Shadow fall and Grant invisibility have +def(all) and stealth, both of which I can see being usefull in both PvP and E
However, if I get jump kick, i'l at least have some self-defence other than running...

So, i'm wondering, how do they stack with each other, with and without slotting. How safe would I and my team be with different combinations, and which way would any of you suggest going?

I would suggest you this guide:

Although its a issue 7 build, the explenation of powers and choices are awsome written, with a huge ammount of numbers.

Instead of going +def, go for darkest night. It does a lovely -acc and -dmg, while shadow fall is used for pump up resist of your pets greatly. As your later protector bots will cast bubbles on you giving great def (slot your protecter bot with def enhancements) it synergyse greatly with the -acc of dark.

I allready have darkest night ^^

At the moment I can only really get defencive boosters, a rez power (not allways usefull for a M), a small melee attack power (not really usefull for a MM other than to kick away badguys).
Well that's all i've really looked into at least.

I've narrowed my choices down to fly (hover, fly, Gfly) or teleport (all four powers, if I can) for travels...

What about fitness pool? Stamina is for a dark if you plan to spam your powers actively while having several toggles running.

Dont get ANY powers from primary apart from bots and upgrade.
Every power from Secondary.
Heal slotted 2 acc 2 heal 2 recharge
Manuvers=Baddd. Assault/Tactics. Vengance if your going to team.
Stamina is a must have.
Combat Jumoing Stacks well with protector bots bubbles.
Id reccomend having 2 defence buffs in Protectors
For PvP ALWAYS stay in Body Guard mode (Follow+Defensive)

Few tips from you. My MM is pretty good in PvP. (Oh. Its Red Goblin. :P Its Envoy of the End. :P)

Flight looks amasingly cool, aparently, and does sound like the better travel power for MMs (team teleport seems alot more limited in range)
I picked manuvers thinking it'd be better. I can allways respec it out I guess.
