heh, that's my old i17 build.
It was quite good at soloing the odd GM here and there, and could easily take on +1/x8 missions. As for AV/GM strategy, it was all about being in bodyguard mode, setting provoke on auto hit, spamming goto/defensive to get pets out of AoE range (now requires even more spamming thx to the screwy AI), and then just making sure your debuffs hit.
I've drastically improved things since inherent fitness and my i19 build looks like this:

Ya it was yours I was looking at, looked better than all the others I saw. Thanks for the better build, I do like it. And Ive never really played MMs before, the defencive mode is the follow button with the arrow correct? And as for the alpha slot, which would be best for this kind of MM?
Quote:
Make sure you edit the default macro for the follow button with the arrow so that it is FOLLOW/DEFENSIVE. My dark's are looking at spiritual first and trying to see if anything works better. Pet Summons, Tar Patch, Howling Twilight, Dark Servant, all benefit from faster recharge.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
Alright, Ill do that... but first I must learn how, lol. Im bad with macros, the only one I know how to make is the one that says something in the desired chat, like for SG recruiting. Would you post the macro I need to use please? Would be greatly appreciated.

Are you sure about this? Pet Summons (the other powers are true I know) don't accept Recharge Enhancements (outside Soulbound), so I don't think they're affected by Spiritual.|

I haven't tried it myself yet (went Cardiac Core at first), but when I did the first mission in Mender Raimel's arc, I used the summon powers to see if they benefited from the 400% recharge bonus that was showing up on my Combat Attributes, but I didn't see the noticeable difference I should have (bah should have timed it).

petcom_all follow defensive
petcom_all goto defensive
petcom_all attack defensive
petcom_all follow passive
As for the Alpha Slot, I use Musclature Core when doing fast /x8 farm missions - adds to pet damage and therefore melts spawns faster, and Cardiac Radial when doing AV/GMs - stops endurance drain on self and pets during very long fights. I haven't tried Spiritual yet, but I'm sure it will not boost pet summon recharge as it is not available as an SO/IO option.

Thanks again Scene! Ill be using those.
I am horrible at building MMs, so I found a build on the forums, added a little tweaking to it, and was wondering if this build would be alright for AV soloing. Also What would the steps be for soloing an AV with a MM? I know it is going to be different than any other AT out there.
