Has anyone ever tried this....
I had that thought the other day while watching someone play the Recluse Strike Force: why not just gather eight mind dominators and have them spam normal Confuse (since it can be stacked) on whatever Hero they want, let him kill everyone, and then hold him to death.
The plan itself sounds way easier than the nuking-shivan-vengeance-hail-mary we have now.
EDIT: Also, I tend to lose bets, so whoever I bet on would probably die. :P
Thinking about it, it would have to be a team of 8 mind dominators because they have 2 confuse powers whereas elec only have 1 and you would need to keep stacking the confuses while the mass confuse recharges.
Shame I dont have a mind dominator but tempted to make one now
It only takes 1 mind dom to destroy the entire freedom phalanx.
I still like the idea of them all battling it out while a load of mind dominators looks on and laughs at them and takes bets. To me it just sums up the whole Dominator Ethos....
Then you have people rig it with mesmerize, causing it to be a race of who can keep their favorite Hero awake and confused.
Plus you may want to choose someone other than Sister Psyche, that way the last man standing doesn't have psionic resistance.
Sounds fun!
OK this is just theory and I doubt it would work but trying it could be fun....
Take a team of eight dominators with a mass confuse power that doesnt draw aggro (Mind and Electric Dominators I'm looking at you). Make sure they can all perma-domi.
1. Do the LRSF and get to the last mission.
2. Line up behind Statesman and his friends at a safe distance. Each team member picks a Hero they want to "bet on"
3. Now all fire off your mass confuse powers (while in domination obviously)
4. Keep firing mass confuse until all but one member of the phalanx is dead
5. The dominator that picked that member gets 100.000inf from the other members.
OK I know it probably wont work given Heroes recharge rates and their resistances to mezes and all that but it could be fun and lets be fair from a concept point of view what could be more "Dominating" than forcing the eight most power heroes in Paragon City duke it out until the last remains?
Anyone actually ever tried it?
