Have you considered the new earth set for I16, I couldn't make up my mind whether to do earth/earth or plant/earth. Hard hitting ST set with some nice wrinkles.

Earth/Ice is a great mix of everything in my primary makes you easier to hit and my secondary slows you down. Then Earth/Psi which has better -rech then ice but is a greater handicap in damage. Ice also gets Power Boost, but PSI gets that mighty AOE. Note I don't have a problem with PSI's damage. So any one run any of these combos? Any ideas? Again I'm not looking for "I CAN SOLO AVs" here just hoping that something can tip the scales. Because it will make choosing a secondary for my new plant dom that much easier. Thanks |
It's true. This game is NOT rocket surgery. - BillZBubba

I'm not sure that you can still say that about Psi and Icy. With the changes I think Icy lags Psi somewhat in damage, mainly because it lacks a good analogue to Psi's early hitters (Mind Probe, TK Thrust). You're also completely forgetting Drain Psyche. It's the only -regen that Doms get, and it's massive.

Yeah I didn't consider /Earth mostly because I'm leaning more towards Plant/Earth. With the AOE confuse and mud pot once they clump up. My original thought was Plant/Psi but I think I'll like Plant/Earth more. After my Ice/Ice DOM, which rocks, I'm just not a fan of similar Primary/Secondary combos. So while I'm sure Earth/Earth will be beast, I just prefer to mix it up.
I haven't played PSI with the new changes so I didn't realize they were that close now. My Fire/Psi hit 50 long before the new changes and I don't really dust her off that much. Gonna have to hit Mids.
