Slotting PA

Hi all,

Anyone got ideas for slotting PA?

Currently I've got a Soverign Right Chance for Build Up with the rest Standard IO's, ideally I'd like to keep the Sov Right.

I've looked at the Recharge Intensive Sets but according to Mids the Recharge is less than 3 standard recharge IOs.


L50s: Tanks: Cryofission - Ice/EM - Dr Celsius - Fire/Ice - Saint George - SD/SS | Controllers: Psichosis - Ill/Kin - Major Chaos - Ill/Stm | Scrappers - Neutron Crusader - DM/SR

Currently Levelling: Angelic Blade - BS/WP Scrapper | Seeds of Destruction - Plant/Kin Controller

4× Expedient Reinforcement, 1× Sovereign Right build-up proc, 1× common recharge. You should be able to get both damage and recharge into the ED red zone, with good accuracy and some endurance reduction. The proc is gravy.

Acc/Dam HOs are good. I usually keep 3 common Recharge IOs in the first 3 slots though. There are probably better ways to Frankenslot to max Rech/Acc/Dam using different set IOs, but I haven't put that much effort into it, to be honest.

Edit: and apparently hilker has the set for that answer

Those look good. I think I'll need to update my Ill/Rad slotting for that power

I use the one Nintova uses.

My Ill/Rad guide includes the one Nintova uses (as he indicates, Thanks), plus a couple more. I use the same slotting as Nintova in my Ill/Storm, but a different one on my Ill/Rad. If you have any other effective slotting, you could post it there so that the information is kept past the next forum wipe.

Another useful slotting, if you are level 50 and you are in a slot-hungry build, and IF you can sacrifice the recharge from the 1 pet intensive set, and if you can spring for purples, would be this:

Soulbound Dam/Rech
Soulbound Acc/Dam/Rech
Soulbound Acc/Rech
Hammi-O Acc/Dam

You get 90% acc and dam, with 89.9% recharge, which isnt capped out *quite* but you save 2 slots. That'd let you have 2 spare slots for something else, tho it may not be ideal if you are trying to max the PA's recharge. If you dont care about getting perma-PA then hey, you have a strong Phantom Army in just 4 slots.

Actually this would be more useful on Gang War so that you could sneak in 2 of the pet defense or resist sets. But hey, it DOES save 2 slots while remaining pretty effective.

Of course, you can also slot the above and throw on a 5th slot of an Acc/Dam/Rech (from a pet intensive set) to top it off (max it out), and you'd still save a slot.

So, these might be useful if you care more about slot savings than recharge bonuses etc. But again, I prefer the hybrid of the 2 pet intensive sets posted earlier.

I went with 5 Expedient Reinforcement and one common Recharge. I forget what the 5th Expedient Reinforcement did, but for whatever reason I liked it.

The 5th ER gives you 10% bonus to regen. I am currently using 5 ER + Call to Arms A/D/R in my illusion/rad. I went with this mostly because I got the CtA a/d/r fairly cheaply a long while ago but the current price of L30 CtA E/D/R is about 15-20 million on the market and I tend to be cheap (relatively speaking). The difference in recharge on my PA between this and Nintova's slotting is about 3 seconds when hasten+AM is up. I am also using a spread of L40 - 47 IO's as my ill/rad is still only L44.
