I have to say again this is very sticky.... if you do too much of anything, you can destroy the build... d*** kin.... XD I still don't like the outcome, you have little to no resist, and charges on things are just a bit too high for mind control, compared to plant when it's confuse cone is up in about 11s. None the less this is it, maxed for acc and recharge the two most important things in my eyes.... No since in having powers that wont hit. Plenty of control and psi nado for some what of a imm since the set lacks it.

The original post of this necro-thread talked about how the OP was low on damage and had trouble playing solo. While the Kin Crash is a nice set for a control-heavy team-oriented build, if you want to solo and/or do some damage, a huge part of that damage comes from Levitate.|

Kinetic Crash in Levitate is actually not quite as oddball as it may seem at first. Slotting +KB in Levitate results in an increased Knock Up magnitude that makes the duration of the toss last longer, keeping the enemy out of the fight. With enough knock up and recharge it becomes possible to chain Levitate on itself to keep an enemy permanently occupied. It also lets you toss enemies that tend to resist knockup (e.g. those giant Malta tanks). 6-slotting Kin Crash increases the Knock Up mag of Levitate from 12-ish to around 36.
The second motivation is price. You can get the Kin Crash set (and thus +7.5% recharge) at a pittance compared to other sets; I think when I had it slotted I paid less than what I would have for comparable SOs. It's a great set to pick up for ultra cheap builds (particularly on teaming characters who need the mitigation and extra recharge more than the damage). I do usually replace it once the toon is better established or if I decide to solo often, though. |
. . . And I don't think he was concerned about budget, with all the purples in his build.
LOCAL MAN! The most famous hero of all. There are more newspaper stories about me than anyone else. "Local Man wins Medal of Honor." "Local Man opens Animal Shelter." "Local Man Charged with..." (Um, forget about that one.)

Sure, but he is (or was) a Kin. The difference between Kin crash and, say, Thunderstrike here is only about 30% Damage (10 points of damage or so at 50). Once you layer Fulcrum Shift on that the difference is minimal because you run hard into the ED cap.

OK, that's a good point. |

How much does it cost to put one of these builds together? This Mind/Kin is my first Blue-side toon so I don't have anything to work with. I don't have much infamy on red-side either. However, I did just read

I wonder if I should try to start doing that now or if its easier to wait till 50.
Necrorez....
Anyhow, I got no questions and all help, I'll whip together an opt build. I've played both sets and have good know-how of how each works, I would have to say though, it's time to think maybe you should just make a Dom and xfer blue in August. I like the set up for Doms better and you don't have to worry about sticky defender sets. Just some fruit for thought. I'll post both suggestions and explain.
