Demon/Thermal Build Critique
This post was also posted in the build workshop section, just to see which one got more feedback. I realize this is frowned upon, but wanted to test it after reading this post: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=279893.
Just one question, where is Hell on Earth? Even if you don't plan to use it, you can use it to give your pets another +5% defence and +10% resistance (Call to Arms and Expedient Reinforcement)
@Treibhireas on Defiant, Exalted and Freedom
Ok, dropped recall friend and a slot from maneuvers to get Hell on Earth and the 2 io's you suggested, build looks like this now:

I'm looking for some build critique on my Demon/Thermal MM. This character will be used almost exclusively for Itrials, with some mission soloing. Personal survivability isn't too much of a concern for me, but pet survivability and damage are my highest priorities. I tried to focus mainly on pet dmg and recharge for forge spamming. Any input is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance for your help!
