As trite as it sounds, I have to say it sort of depends on you.
I found that /pain was about as effective as /dark in terms of survivability for my MM, but preferred /dark for it's synergy with the MM bots set.
Pain= makes you more effective (discounting the debuffs)
Dark= makes them less effective
Take traps. Have it all.

don'T attempt to read tHis mEssaGe, And believe Me, it is not a codE.
I'm only on my 24th month Vet. badge so my opinion isn't as informed as many others.
With that out of the way, I will say of all secondaries available to MMs Dark Miasma is the best choice.
It has come to my attention, in my limited time playing MMs, I am most effective running mish in BG mode. Buffs aren't as useful as debuffs in my opinion since I like to draw as much agro as I can away from the pets towards the MM.
DM offers all the goods to take tough opponents. Massive -to hit, good -res & a decent touch of -regen. Psuedo-control with dark servant. Dark Miasma is waayy up there in comparison to the other secondaries in my opinion.
I will say my opinion is heavily biased since I take Provoke on all my MMs to take full advantage of BG mode.
So in a nutshell, my opinion is only valid if one takes Provoke & plays in BG mode 99.999% of the time.

To the OP: go therm and have both
Anyone have an answer for this? Or just their own theory? I would just like to hear opinions about having buffs (example thermal with buffs/heals) or Debuffs (example Dark Miasma with Debuffs/Heals) is better end game? Please just use Mastermind secondaries as examples since this is based around Masterminds and just wondering which is technically better in the end. TYVM!
