Plant/Thorn build revamp


Granite Agent

 

Posted

A long time friend of mine has returned to the game after a few years and has played with Mids - he is hoping for feedback and I am not an expert on doms or dom builds.

Is it possible some of our resident experts to take a peek at what he has been playing with and if you have better builds to also post those?

Here is what he has given me:

Build 1

Build 2

I am not a fan of single target immobilize powers but he wanted it for bosses. Again, I am no expert at all and I would truly appreciate some feedback. Ask any questions you wish - I will direct him to the thread.

His Plant slotting is completely borked in both builds. Read some of the recent Plant/Fire posts here for guidance. Even the Fire side would be instructive for thorns (and APPs).

Thank you for the build and info - that is a pretty nice amount of resist and defense there. Looks expensive as heck.

Briefly, creepers slotting is wrong -- do a search here and in controller forum for Carrion Creepers -- needs different slotting to be optimized.

Also, Roots should probably get a damage proc (trap of hunter or Grav anchor) in addition to the Posi Blast set. Looks like he has one blank slot left so can add it here. Roots is great AOE dmg for an immob and should be part of the AOE attack chain.
