Slot my Fluffy

4 Basilisk's Gaze (Pick 4, minus the Proc), 2 Touch of the Nictus (ACC/HEAL, ACC/END/RCH).

I use mine as just more to add to the team. And these give me good set bonuses...+Rec, +Ranged Defense, +RCH, and +HP.

Basilisk's Gaze while expensive buying them on WW, is easy to get with tickets, and I got all 4 of mine through tickets.

If you're responding to Fulmens, he mentioned that he's only 3 or 4 slotting the DS at level 33. Also, your choices are enhancing the hold and the healing of the Dark Servant, powers that need to be cycled through among four powers total. However, if you focus on ToHit Debuff, that's something every power the DS has can use. So, I would 4 slot the DS this way:


Level 33: Dark Servant Tank (plus Proc)

  • (A) Cloud Senses - ToHit Debuff: Level 30
  • (33) Cloud Senses - ToHit Debuff/Endurance/Recharge: Level 30
  • (33) Cloud Senses - Accuracy/ToHitDebuff: Level 30
  • (33) Cloud Senses - Chance for Negative Energy Damage: Level 30
------------
Set Bonus Totals:
  • 2.25% Max End
  • 6.25% Enhancement(RechargeTime)
  • MezResist(Confused) 2.5%
  • MezResist(Held) 2.5%
  • MezResist(Immobilize) 2.5%
  • MezResist(Sleep) 2.5%
  • MezResist(Stun) 2.5%
  • MezResist(Terrorized) 2.5%
------------
Dark Servant Enhancement Stats
  • Accuracy: 21.75%
  • EndDiscount: 17.4%
  • Recharge Time: 17.4%
  • ToHit Debuff: 43.97% (44.41% pre-ED)

(33) Cloud Senses - Chance for Negative Energy Damage: Level 30

Does this proc mean Chill of the Night will proc negative energy damage?

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.

Just tested this. It looks like it does, but it's hard to tell if the proc is going off on the Tentacles, Twilight Grasp, Darkest Night, or Petrifying Gaze rather than the Chill of the Night.

So Fluffy sub-lvl 50, I would go with 4 of clouded senses (include the proc!)... Probably -tohit, acc/-tohit, acc/rech and the proc which gives nice acc (43.6%), nice -tohit (56.6% - don't remember how ED screws this up) with a touch of recharge (21.8%) which will recharge the SUMMONING power more quickly, just not affect Fluffy's attacks. My reasoning for this is that:

1) Fluffy needs to have some accuracy for any of his targetted powers to hit.
2) Everything Fluffy has (except Pet Gaze) does is -to hit, so slotting for -to hit maximizes the benefit you get from the slots you put into him.
3) Everything Fluffy has (except Pet Gaze) does is -to hit, so the Cloud proc has a chance of going off in Chill, DN, TwiGrasp and TT, which is a nice boost to his damage output.
4) some recharge makes him available sooner

Downside is that the set maxes at 30, but as you see, you can still get some useful benefits from it...

My recommendation for lvl 50 slotting is still 4 slots, and using the same acc/-tohit theory ... 3 Lysos (+acc/-tohit) and the cloud proc. I have found this to be very tight and effective slotting for how I use Fluffy (I treat him like an AoE -tohit power... I summon him into the middle of a spawn, and giggle as they all fail to hit him. Then I pick them off at my leisure ).
