Drain Psyche - Single Origin Slotting

Hi,

I am pre-IO (not enough inf atm) so need to slot Drain Psyche with SO's.

Has anyone got any advice on what slotting I should use with SO's (with the aim later on slotting with IO's - probably be a while though).

Thanks.

6 slots? I'd probably go 2 acc 1 end mod 3 recharge - you want it up as much as possible, want it to hit and then final slot is heal or endurance depending on what you require more.

Slotting depends a bit on playstyle. When playing in teams Drain Psyche will probably hit many mobs and cap your recovery even without any EndMod enhancements (and even with a bit less your blue bar will be virtually undrainable for the duration). In that case my slotting would be: 2 Acc, 1-2 Heal, 2-3 Recharge.




If it has
eyes, you can blind it, if it has blood, you can make it bleed, if it has a mouth, you can make it scream.

I will probably use it mostly in teams where it is safe to do so. At the moment i am running hasten and firing it off as often as possible.

Myself, I find it more than adequate for endurance recovery with it's base figures, just one or two people hit'll be enough to allow me to spam AoEs and break even with endurance.

Personal slotting I went with was 1 Acc, 2 Recharge, 3 healing here. The hp/sec regen component's high enough to regen your max HP twice in the 30 seconds duration, so as long as it's not too spiked you can soak up a huge amount of damage and come out of the fight with full health. In effect it might as well be tripling your Max HP.

This is, however, from the perspective of a Fire/Mental, which I'd imagine is more adept at grabbing aggro than Psychic/Mental and'd therefore benefit from the regen more. Endurance recovery has been enough to make me never drop below 90% unslotted, and I never stop attacking and veritably spam AoEs.

This power is obscene.

I got it (unenhanced) on my blaster on teams and I was getting 7-8end per second and 4-5% total regen.

3 Recharge, 2 Health, 1 Acc for me, until I fiddle with IOs.

I have to aggree that this power is really good. I will need to IO it out after when I get a chance but at the moment i'm very happy with the power.

Has anyone noticed that it seems to give the same visual appearance for ra/regen to enemies as well. not sure if it is a bug or just showing that the mob is being drained?

might be interesting to test it in pvp
