The difference between the Mu and other immobilizes is that the Mu one has -KB, which is important for BOTs, which like to blast stuff all over the place. If the KB from bots is too much for dark (blasting out of tar patch) you'll want to pick up Mu and use the immob with it's -kb.

Going Black Scorpion for the extra defense from the scorpion shield isn't a bad way to go either.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
My bots/dark MM took Soul Mastery, and I absolutely love it. If nothing else, nailing a target with Soul Storm and then ordering the bots to go to town on it is a beautiful thing.

I took Mace Mastery for the aoe immob and the hold.
The AoE immobilize is a thing of beauty. It sure helps the enemy win the mini-game of "How Long Can You Stay in the Burn Patch?"
I have two bots MMs in patron arc range. One has soul mastery, the other has Mu. I find that soul mastery's cone hits all of the spawn more consistantly than Mu's smaller circle, but the -KB sure helps melt those enemies away when it hits them all. However, even when knocked back, the enemy is still held in place--no chasing around stragglers, so even though I haven't measured it, it seems to me than the cone speeds up kill time a little more on average than the Mu attack.

Shoot on sight, please.

they suck soooo bad that they go cry in the face of the next group!
I can't believe I'm the master of losers
It's worth noting that the Leviathan Mastery PPP Immob cone has a wider arc and longer range then the Soul mastery one.
Soul mastery looks really cool IMO but both it's immob and damage cone have shorter ranged and/or smaller arcs then it's counterparts. Also black scorpions AOE Immob has a larger radius then the Mu mastery one. Of course the Mu one does have the -kb.
I don't think the -kb is as big a deal for Bots/Dark as it is for say... Bots/FF

Given that you want as many targets as possible clumped up together in your tar patch for your bots AoE's to hit....it would most certainly seem like it would be important.

My bots don't really send things flying across the screen with their KB. I would rather sacrifice the -kb for a larger area of effect to my immob.
Of course everyone should chose for themselves what they want in their immobilize.

Not that that's not fun to watch.
Mu above all others. The -kb will help melt minions and lieutenants all of the time. All it takes is for AoE KB to cycle first and your nice grouped mob is scattered too far for one set of burn patches to eat through, and a thirty second group becomes a few minutes. The defense on Mace is nice, but between bodyguard, proper slotting for -kb, your and eventually fluffy's heals, and the defenses you can already get without the extra S/L defense, you don't need it. Helping your bots kill a significant percentage of the mob in about ten seconds is also a form of mitigation, and with dark's survivability you're better served adding to your offense.
That makes mu the best choice, bar none.
Any suggestions...?
I am thinking Mu, for the group immobilize, but I see Soul has a cone immobilize also - I like the idea of keeping things together though.
I mostly do PVE, any suggestions are helpful.
