I'll pretend I didn't see you suggest not taking Forge and/or Heat Exhaustion.
Clearly a MM can skip the rez. It doesn't work on your pets. Maybe skip Thaw if you're not diligent about watching your henchmen's status (that's not meant to be insulting, I think you have to be paying pretty close attention to do that).
I haven't tried to make a build for the combo yet, but with wanting to take the DS attacks, a Combo with Thermal looks to be pretty tight.

thanks Deacon I did not realize the phoenix rez doesn't apply to pets, I will skip that for sure as my MMs rarely team. I think I want thaw (yes im very diligent to their dazed wanderings), although they seem tougher than ninjas or zombies I think I will try thaw and see how often I use it before considering respec out.
Forge ? really ? is it that good? what is the rech ?

I would take Forge over Thaw any day on a thermal solo build mastermind.
Remember, you get a free second build for team vs. solo or pve vs pvp after level 10.

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

Do you know what goes great with damage? MOAR damage. Take both Assault and Forge, Tactics isn't "needed" if you're slotting for acc and are remaining in Supremacy anyway.

Submit your MA arc for review & my arcs thread
I am building a DS/therm and was curious about this too. I had heard that the rez is actually a high-damage AoE attack, and it might be worth taking as an offensive power. This would be akin to taking the dark rez and using it for its debuff properties. What I don't know is whether the thermal rez needs a dead teammate to actually work. Anyone know this?
If I need someone on my team to die just to get a nuke off...well, guess that makes the rez skippable.
That, or I should get vengeance AND the rez! 
You need someone dead to use the therm rez and cant use it or veng on one of your henchmen
/gignore @username is the best feature of this game. It's also probably the least used feature.

Come on you knew this question was going to be asked soon enough.
Right now I am planning on taking ALL the /thermal powers on my DS/thermal because by the descriptions they all sound good. However which powers are not as good as they sound?
Forge? (ill have assault and tactics)
Heat Exhaustion?
I was considering sidelining plasma shield, but then I remembered Arachnos (who are one of the fews enemies that give my MMs trouble).
What would you skip from thermal on a DS MM ??
