Trio Feedback

Hi all,

Hoping to get some general feedback on a trio I'm tossing around in my head for some friends I play with. The trio I'm thinking about would be a Spines/WP Scrapper, a Plant/Fire Dominator, and a Plant/Rad or Plant/Ice Controller.

The goal with the trio would be able to take down most content together, without help. Not that we're against teaming, but if we play on an off time and can't find people, I don't want an AV slowing us down. To that end, I'm thinking the Controller would be crucial. I can't figure out what secondary the controller should go with.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

cold dom hands down IMO lol

ally buffs + AV killing debuffs = 0 issues lol


as for a whole trio, 1 brute/tank, 1 mind/* dom thats perma, and 1 ill/cold troller and that should be able to do any tf with 3 poeple lol

Thanks for the feedback. I should of mentioned what I thought was implicit in the post: we want some theme to tie us together (hence the Spines, Plant, Plant thing). We're not bent on forming an AV killing squad; we'd rather have a fun theme than be able to take down most content in the game without batting an eye. I don't, for example, want to pitch this as a trio that can take down a trial alone.

My primary concern was a team that can take down most content alone. By most, I mean the typical, single AV. Another trio of ours hit a wall on a single AV recently, and I don't want that to happen again.

The rad or the cold should just about guarantee that won't happen.

I sensed the plant/spines theme, and I think it will turn out very well.

Both choices (rad or cold) will be able to take down AVs without trouble. Rad should be able to do it on a cheaper budget, if that means anything to you. Cold will require a little more recharge to do the same things. The cold shields, however, are pretty invaluable.

I'd say you can't really go wrong here. Flip a coin, or pick whichever you can come up with a cooler concept for.

As Dechs said, it doesn't make a huge difference, but cold will take more inf to do what rad does rather cheaply. IF you have the inf to get benumb and heatloss perma, then go with cold, otherwise, I would pick rad. But keep in mind that setting a mish to x8 with plant (TWO PLANTS!) will allow a LOT of creepers to spawn around the av and dish out some big damage. Not to mention the dom with /fire is doing great ST damage.

*Something just hit me as I was about to post this. Since you want some theme between them, go plant/cold on the troller. Then your plant guys can be oppostie elements on their secondary. Changing the spines then to either elec or fire would help that them along too if want, but WP will probably be better off with the cold shields from a numbers perspective (assuming he doesn't soft cap himself via ios).

And if you can pickup sleet somewhere (the domi can get it as an epic pool) and drop achilees heel proc, you'll really appreciate it. =)

On my plant domi I have achilees heel slotted into flytrap.

Love the -res.
