Farming Dom?

If i wanted to make a farming dom, should i go the traditional fire/psi/soul or would it be alright to go Plant/Psi/Soul?

I am not a Dominator expert but why pick Psi over Fire Assault for farming? Seems like the FE and the AOE's would help a lot..

I am more confused about the Soul part...
Aside from Dark Obliteration being a good aoe attack, it doesn't really offer anything to a farmer. I'd go with Fire for Fire Ball + Rain of Fire.

I assume for soul drain (and maybe consumption), but I would think /fire winds up being worth more damage.

I am not a dom expert either. Psi is a popular choice because drain psyche(I think) gives incredible survivability. Also, most farming doms I have run across swear by /ice for hoarfrost and sleet.

When I used to farm with a Dom I used a Fire/Fire/Mu, but when we were able to use APP I switched to a Fire/Fire/Fire. If fit my theme and was very effective as well.

my earth/fire/fire is not bad for farming, can solo x6 diff pretty easy and even go up to x8

Though I don't 'farm' per say, my fire/fire/fire doesn't solo at anything less than x6 +bosses, usually at x8. This was with high recharge bonuses, of course...without that he goes down like a stone. But having a double magnitude flashfire always up seems more than enough, especially if you can get your embrace of fire up as long as possible. Doing that also boost the fire ancillary powers' uptime, meaning you can have permanent rain of fire at all times, with fireball/firebreath/combustion can be thrown about willy-nilly. Blaze is up every other attack, (if that) so bosses wither quickly, giving quite respectable rewards and a chance at some rare recipes.

What seals the deal for this is the incarnate system. Getting the highest destiny rebirth radial does wonders, as it gives a huge heal with reliable +regen. The alpha cardiac reduces the endurance on all that control/AoE you'll be spamming, and with consume/domination being able to be tag teamed for endurance refills, you never have to worry about blues. As almost all of fire control's powers do damage, so you have almost nothing that cannot trigger interface. I went reactive +fire for consistency, and, well, damage. Judgement is...well, judgement.

Well I've never run fire/ on a dom but I have on a controller and I have a Plant/Psi/Fire Dom. I will tell you my fire kills quicker on the controller, but I also have kin backing it up, but that said, my plant/psi/fire can lay waste to the bad guys. Seeds, Roots, Creepers, Psychic Shockwave, Fireball, and Rain of Fire does some serious pain to the enemies...

I run random tips and things at x8/+2 on my earth/fire/fire, though I don't typically have bosses on. If I ever really wanted to find a farm map I could probably go up to +3 and/or include bosses.
