Dark/Time Feedback

Posted

So I am toying around with my new favorite character, which is of course a Dark/Time Corr, and have this build planned out in Mids. It seems pretty solid minus the end use/recovery rate and I am looking to see if there is a way that someone else can see to trim the fat and maybe fix up some of the slotting.

My defense are set at:
S/L 54.1%
F/C 30.1%
E 54.9%
N 42.6%
P 28.9%
M 37%
R 45.1%
AoE 31.4%

I'm feeling lazy, so I'm just going to post a chunk rather than go into a bunch of details. Worth mentioning, though: Your build has a ton more HP than this one. I dropped acro for time selection; since you've got kb protection acro is mostly just providing mag2 hold protection. Dropping a toggle entirely helps your end consumption, and time selection looks like a nice ally buff. Anyway, maybe this will give you some ideas.

Thanks for the feedback!

Looking over your second build I have to disagree on Temporal Selection over Acro, especially when you took out the hold resistance as well in tough. I wish I could fit temporal selection into the build but I solo a lot more than I team so I think that acro will benefit my play style a bit more. I guess I should have mentioned that first hah.

I noticed that you slotted Tenebrous Tentacles for -tohit as opposed to damage for some more defense to R/E/N, do you think that is really needed considering it is already well above the cap? I prefer to use the two cones as AoE damage rather than control so maybe I am just weird.

On the positive your take on Life Drain is exactly what I was looking for! Much better than what I had slotted. My only other concern is if it is worth it to unslot tactics and lose the defense buff from that in order to slot up Slowed Responses? It seems to be a decent power right out of the box, at least decent enough to sacrifice the extra -defense for extra defense.

I also moved on slot from Dark Pit to Chrono Shift and reslotted like you suggested. All in all I think the build is looking a lot tighter, thanks a lot!

Also, I strongly recommended this combination. With the correct slotting in order to hit the soft caps and the -tohit from Dark as well as the debuffs from Time make this a power house. Not the most damaging, but that is kinda made up for by Scourge heh.

I played around with your build a bit.

I changed your epic's...You obviously like soft capped defenses but with time there is a better way... Taking soul mastery give you power boast if you click power boast before Far sight it added 20.6ish def to everything.

You also complained about removing the resistance from tough well i also did that but not you have 44is resit to S/L.

Chrono Shift's recharge aspect is perma at 90 sec's So i added in Hasten.
