Currently Working on Mind/Psi dom, which also happens to be my 1st dom that I've played to any extent. I'm lvl 48 and looking for build ideas. If anyone has any suggestions or builds to reference, i would really appreciate the insight.

My best advice would be to build for Recharge. Mind Control rips things to bits once Perm-dom is reached. I've a mind/psi that was pretty amazing, but she came off the hook once I got her domination to be perma. Outside of that, go nuts, they're a solid ST/AOE power combo that you can tailor to your play style (ranged/melee).

Good luck.

Thanks for the TIP. I've put together a build that seems Pretty good to me, but like I said before, I'm a Dom noob. If anyone could look this over and offer more pointers, I'd appreciate it.

Pretty good build to begin with, of course, how you play and your budget effects your build. IMHO Drain Psyche, Health and Hasten are over slotted. Health and Hasten could each stand to loose a slot (use Enh boosters to make your hasten 2 50+5s) , and drop Health to 2 slots, put a Miracle: +Recovery and a Numina's +Regen/Rec in the other... That's 2 slots that you can drop into Mass Hypnosis. Drain Psyche is pretty danged wicked, but only if it hits. I'd loose the Miracle and Eff Addaptors, slap 3 Touch of the Nictus and a Theft of Essence +End proc in there and call it done (make sure you use the Accuracy and maybe the Neg damage proc).

And, all of that may be against how you play. I tank through control, if I'm doing it right I take almost no damage at all and the mobs melt around me, nom a purple cookie on the tough mobs and off I go. I'll post my current build so you can get a flavor for different styles of building and play.

Good Luck!
