Starting a Mind/Psi/Psi. Suggestions?

Posted

I Recently came back to the game after almost a year hiatus, and decided to make good on my intention to make a Dominator. After Fiddling around with Elec/Elec, I decided that making a Praetorian Seer would be a neat idea, and decided upon Mind Control primary and Psionic secondary. I am thinking of taking the Psionic epic powerset as well.

Currently, she is sitting at level 11 (been enjoying my VEATs and 3 new scrappers too much), and I am looking to start working on leveling her again. Any helpful suggestions for me? I am working on my Mac right now, so I am unable to post a Mid's build until I get home. I used to be gung-ho for blasters, and am recently warming up to the Scrapper as well. However, I am still having a little trouble with the (in my opinion, being a blaster at heart) sub-par dps.

Thanks in advance.

I would probably not take the Psi epic, it really doesn't have much to offer Doms.


Issue 16 made me feel like this.

Don't Take the Psionic Mastery set. Got it. While I readjust my build (leaning towards either primal or scorpion for idea, but ice could work too), take a look at this and see if I am going in the right direction for a Dominator.

A few notes:

I took super speed in order to free up slots.
I took TP ally to free up slots.
I put an extra slot in fly because HATE going slow.
I took psionic tornado and 4 slotted it so that I got (some) KB protection.
Telekinesis...... I don't know. I like the Idea?

Flight goes at cap without any enhancements now.

Here is a revised build. My goal with this character is to have quick recharge, primarily; I also have solid single-target and multi-target attack chains built. I don't have an enormous budget available, so I have tried to stay away from sets I know are outrageously priced.

for S/L/E I have defense in the low to mid 20's, and for N/Tox in the low teens. I don't want to sacrifice too much offense to shore up defense, but I'm open to suggestions.
