Hello Villains, Vigilantes, and Heroes!
I got inspired to build a MC/SA Dom because...I guess I don't like myself? I dunno. I have this delusion I can successfully piece together a version that focuses on the melee damage from Savage Assault and what I conceive of as "forward control." The theory runs that I could use stealth/infiltrate to proceed to the next cluster, sleep potential adds until we're ready, drop large scale control/confuse effects and then tear up the resistors before mopping up. I imagine this would solo well and have something to do in any group. (I don't know of any groups that would be so tight as to only allow or expect specific power combos, but I haven't hit any end game content yet.)
Now, if you're an experienced player, and those are the folks I'm most hoping to hear from, you can probably already tell I'm not. I haven't been back to the game long and pretty much everything is different in some larger or smaller ways under the hood. I am, abashedly, just out of my depth trying to learn and catch up on enhancement interactions, streamlining slots and when to pick up certain things, or even knowing which thresholds I need to reach in a given area. (Like, having 3 slots already dedicated to +acc and watching an important mez fail is really disheartening. )
So I have tinkered with MRB and a member of my supergroup has been very supportive but warned me it will take a large fortune to get any MC/SA build to work. They even posted one as a reference, but I...don't fully understand it or how its supposed to work.
So I'm reaching out to see if you fine folks have any input, suggestions, or experience that you're willing to share which might help me. I'd be happy to add the *.mids of my amateur build and the one I picked up from the SG if anyone thinks that would help. I'm not experienced enough yet to be able to ask precise questions, so I apologize for not having more "meat" here to work with.
tl;dr - I don't know what I'm doing but I know I want to do this weird combo and would appreciate any help available.
