I prefer the "chance for hold" proc myself.

Thank you!
Personally I prefer Total Core to any of the other T3 options for Ion. Even at T3 Judgement will kill most minions and severely wound the rest of the spawn. Given that I don't see a huge benefit to any of the debuffs and controls available on the radial trees.
Most of my Ion users are pretty squishy (Defenders, dominators, contollers, corruptors, etc.), so the chance for hold is my friend. After I've annoyed a spawn by deleting 2/3 of their HP, it is nice that a quarter of the survivors _aren't_ shooting at me.

Interestingly most of my characters are squishy as well. In general my feeling is that if I can take the spawn without using my Judgement then I don't really need the mez from the Judgement either so I might as well have more damage. If I can't take the spawn without Judgement then I'm better off lowering the difficulty (if solo) or letting someone else take the alpha before using my Judgement (if on a team).

I like the chance for hold on iTrials because, especially when you haven't gotten all 3 level shifts yet, minions may very well survive the initial salvo, but those that do will probably be held. Also, the hold uses the graphics for Tesla Cage, which fits my Elec^3 Blaster perfectly.

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...
First time Im using Ion on a character, so I was wondering which of the 4 choices for T3 is the better or recommended by players.
I usually dont care much for procs and prefer secondary effects like end drain or holds Ion has, but sometimes procs can be really better so I dont know...
Thanks in advance.
