I feel like brevity is undervalued in these forums sometimes. There's a solid reason for this and if you prefer experience the old way, minus having to pay for premium options, it's available elsewhere. Tacking more power creep into a system designed to incentivize account subscriptions does not strike me as a wisely considered venture.

*hops into the mob right next to the tank with Repulsion Field toggled on, and once the mob is blown clear uses an AoE Immob* *turns to you, grinning and waggling bushy eyebrows* "You were saying?"

Complex, sort of a high ceiling to master. Lots of choices, easy to get stuff wrong. Early levels are rough. For seasoned players, or people with obessive personalities, this isn't an issue. It might be for others. Also. Widows aren't the toughest AT, that's tankers. Widows aren't the most damaging AT, that's tankers. (joke) They don't have a noteworthy inherent that you style your play around like Doms or Scraps. So it's sort of a love of the AT and what it can do that brings players to Widows for life.

I liked your comment. I found that ironic.

WP/MA is my vote. Leveled one to 50 a few months back and it was really smooth all the way through. A very gradual power curve without any real spikes. So it might be considered a little boring by some, and I think it's a fair criticism. But that also means safe and for me in particular allows for some RP chatter in groups. [edit]: Her build is very Natural Origin compliant, so posting it here. Easily Tanks +4 ITF, but I haven't done much else with it. SLFCEN/M Def Capped with Storm Kick up, and MotT +Res Proc is slotted there too, so spam that sucker and use CAK and Eagles Claw as your big booms. I've also got an SD/MA thats a lot of fun at 50, but I leveled her ages ago and can't remember how it went other than being starved for End until getting Cardiac Alpha slotted.

Between Follow Up and Invincibility stacks you won't need Tactics to land hits.

Sorry to necro this (has rigor mortis set in yet?) but I'm curious, do you proc slot SS or just set slot and let Fury do the work?

I don't think it's very common, but it doesn't sound bad at all. I don't have a build but I'd suggest slotting Siphon Life for damage instead of heals since you get Particle Barrier. In fact, if you'd like to really crank damage, you have a lot of Proc potential in Dark with Siphon Life, Soul Drain, and Midnight Grasp, and likewise in Rad with Radiation Therapy and Ground Zero. In fact, jumping into a group and chaining proc'd Soul Drain > Ground Zero > Radiation Therapy sounds awesome.

I'd endorse this pick for concept and fun. Recently took a Bio/Rad tanker to 50 and currently incarning them. Even with the changes this feels strong, just don't proc-slot IG. At 50 she's a beast and able to tank +4/8 anything in Offensive Mode. But leveling her up I ran mostly in Efficiency Mode and wondered if I hadn't made a mistake not going Brute instead, since the Fury would have really helped amp the damage while I was still working slotting.

My OCD prevents this from ever being an actual issue. I write what I want down on scrap and get it done ASAP.

I just want to say you guys are really killing it with the opening statement on your posts. Very entertaining, please keep it up.

I agree with Betty, worlds apart while leveling and at 50. But even at 50, it's not my favorite Dom set. Would rather play Dark, Plant, or Grav.

Le c'rosspost!

A great retrowave bop to inspire all those dimensional transplants and Rikti characters, trying in vain to get back to the Earth they call their own:

Mind, but thruth in lending I'm still leveling the character in fits and starts. Haven't put the lvl 50 build into action yet.

Perma Fade and an epic Resist Armor is kinda silly. I wasn't even chasing Def, it just found me. 😕

Yup, it is. My favorite thing about it is that it has a chance to proc Panacea's Heal and End on every teammate it effects*, so I six-slotted it with Panacea on my Pain Def.

This is really well done, Legion. Bravo. I'd like to laud each individual aspect but it'd sound like fawning. Everything really is done great. Especially the writing.

Hi there! 👋 Unfortunately I don't have a perfect answer for you. I'm 99% certain binds can't execute two actions simultaneously, especially for movement which is expressed by ++direction in a bind, the double plus indicating the action will continue as long as the key is depressed. But there is a less elegant solution, which is to bind the "+down" command to something like a side mouse button, and to press that while pressing S. I think it's bound by default to X, which is a bit awkward.

Rad will pair well with just about anything because it's good. The set loses Radiation Therapy but does still have the delightfully procable Ground Zero, so if you really want to max out the the blappiness, Rad or Elec will put you in close combat frequently. If you care less about synergies and more about straight damage, than fire and water are gonna do you well.

@Nayeh's suggestion are great. One thing I'd add to what they said: Drop one of your slots on Hasten, and 6 slot this with Preventative Medicine set. Hasten can be maximally enhanced with two 50+5 Recharge IOs. You can pick up the merits needed to purchase Enhancers from a single TinPex run. PrevMed showers you with bonuses, including more Global Recharge than you'd get with that 3rd slot in Hasten, and you get a potentially life-saving absorb proc. As for it not being an accurate heal: my experience is that usually if you have enough ToHit bonuses stacked up to land already-disadvantaged AoE mezzes, then you're likely at 95% hit chance against +4, or close enough to it.

Sister Psyche highly recommends.

Most Kin powers will debuff enemies as much as buff allies. Transference will drain enemies centered on your target while also providing End to you and allies in range of the target (20ft). Only thing that's tricky about the last part is that the end return won't work if the target dies mid-cast.
