Dark/Dark/Dark Build for Team PvE
Dunno, if it's for team PvE, I think it's a pity to slot attacks from a Defender for dmg... and leave them partially slotted, but I am heavily biased towards the debuff side on my D3 and I have hims slotted for ToHit Debuff mostly. Also, can't see the point of Blackstar for team defender, the damage is.... pretty much non-existant and can't see the defender dmg contributing much to a team tbh.
I see some things overslotted such as Oppressive Gloom, Howling Twilight and Tar Patch (I find HT and TP most useful if slotted for rchg) and some other things underslotted (Shadow Fall, Dark Embrace, Darkest Night...)
Sorry, can't see how this fits the concept for team PvE on a D3 Defender, for me, it's a case where looking for set bonuses has impaired the efficacy of the powers.-
I haven't put that many sets into my D3 but I would definitely agree with this:

Stupefy is a nice set but the bonuses aren't worth spending the slots on the powers in my opinion. Oppressive gloom works well with two and I only use recharge on my Howling Twilight. The only power that really needs it is Dark Pit to try and make up for its poor accuracy and duration.
However, what I will say is that I didn't see any resistance enhancements in Shadowfall. The Defence off of that power is low and IMHO, not worth enhancing. The resistance to EN/NegEN though is definitely worth putting some slots in. I also think you'll need some accuracy in Soul Drain to make it efficient.
One last thing is that with Shadowfall and Recall Friend, you're a Stealth IO away from ghosting for the team which is always a nice ability to have.
Hope that helps some.

I think its overkill for what teams need myself, so definitely team worthy.
Fun and making a concept just so is the main thing.
You've sacrificed resistance for a little confuse resistance, a tiny bit for a mezz that'll happen almost never to you..I like +rechg but I have to know how much I would "seriously" need. (I am not saying you've over recharged it I am just saying that with attributes, too much is a waste, as it can mean too little of something else - not that it necessarily would).
My build ain't perfect, its a work in progress as she is still leveling on Vigilance but if you want a lol at it I'll pm you it. It was done a long time ago but you might look at it for slotting ideas like I will look at yours for slotting ideas.

Hey all,
I have made a new hero who was solely made for Team PvE, I have reached level 27 so far and I have to say, I am loving it.
However, I am finding it difficult to get every power that I want at my current level, so.... I created a build on the Hero Designer, it was mainly aimed as a level 50 respec but I may respec into it in the late-30s, early-40s. I went for mainly +Recharge and +Accuracy.
All advice and comments are appreciated.
