Best Slotting for these 2 Pets?

I have a lvl 35 Grav/Rad 'Troller as well as a lvl 40 Earth/Therm 'Troller. I have absolutely NO idea what the best slotting arrangement for the Pets is, especially the Singularity. I know that Stoney eats up endurance like nobody's business. I currently have them slotted with SO's...pretty basic slotting really.

What would be the "best" slotting for these 2 pets? Frankenslotting? IO sets? What benefits them most?

Ultimately, I would like to beat down some GM's with either of these 2 toons...end game of course. Don't know if that helps.

Use Expedient Enforcement if you want some status resistance and +dam or Call to Arms if you want some +HP and +rec. The +6.25% recharge is really nice. You could also slot the purple pet set if you want the +dam and the BU proc.

Just focus on slotting acc and dam and maybe a little end red if they need it. It's not too special.



Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.

But doesn't the Singularity have holds and so-forth? Or should I not worry about those?

There is no "one best way" for slotting them. Both pets gain a lot from slotting the +10% Resistance procs, because both Rocky and Singy have high Resistance. Both pets excell at being tanks, so the higher Resistance adds a lot to their survival.

I prefer to slot Rocky with 4 Expediant Reinforcement, including the Resist proc, and then add the other Resist proc and an Acc/Dam Hami-O. I generally look to Rocky to be not only my Tank/Aggro magnet, but also to do some decent damage.

As for Singy, there are a lot of options. You could use the same slotting as above for Rocky, but replace the Acc/Dam Hami-O with an Acc/Mez. The nice thing about the Acc/Mez Hami-O is that it will buff both the Hold and Immob with one enhancement. While Singy's damage is helpful, I see it more as a tank/aggro magnet/controller.

I've seen a lot of different slotting options, depending upon one's build.


LOCAL MAN! The most famous hero of all. There are more newspaper stories about me than anyone else. "Local Man wins Medal of Honor." "Local Man opens Animal Shelter." "Local Man Charged with..." (Um, forget about that one.)

Singularity tends to latch on to a target and grind it down, so slotting mez duration enhancements really doesn't help much - it cycles Crush and Gravity Distortion quickly enough that you'll probably never notice the difference. A little accuracy doesn't hurt (though it starts off pretty high already) and then enhance damage to the ED cap and call it done. Like Local Man said, the +10% resist bonus helps keep him alive too so that's an option. Singy really doesn't need heavy slotting.

Thank you all! This is just what I was looking for.
