Crysis

If i want a story, I read a book or watch a movie/series. I play COH to do superhero stuff. I skip as many text boxes as possible and ignore all the 5th grade fanfic fare.

I think WAI as it's been discussed in bug forums occasionally.

Check out @Darkir’s post/build. It plays really well!

It’s a lot of fun to combat teleport backwards 50 feet from a boss, release Call Hawk from range, then Feral Charge back to target, arriving usually just seconds before the Hawk lands it’s attack. And you were right…Call Hawk fully loaded packs a wallop. Those two attacks landing at once not only feels and looks “Savage” but does considerable DPS when landing at same time. A common opener for me is CT into middle of spawn, launch Gleam, Drop Sleet, then Fold Space to hug everyone and go to town, repeatedly CT backwards, release Hawk, then Feral Charge in. That plus my PA and Phantasm, dropping Spectral to keep people huddled, seems to make up for lack of a broader AOE immobilize.

Final build... -I realized I was getting nothing out of 6-slotting Guassians in Spot Prey that couldn't be better served 6-slotting Spectral Wall. And actually, being able to immobilize the boss/AV in my sleet field is pretty sweet. So I swapped that around. -I swapped out some procs for FF +Recharge in both Call Hawk and Feral Charge. Got me to Permadom easily. Everything else remained mostly as it was. Pulled a slot out of Combat Jumping and since I'm already overcapped for S/L it didn't matter. Very happy with this one after some play sessions today. Thanks all!

I'm actually wondering if new Mids has a bug in there for +Recharge calculation. In game I'm finding this build to have a lot more +Recharge than what's showing in Mids. Here's an updated build, per some of Frosticus feedback....and again, all Amplifiers "on" as that's how I play until I get Incarnates.

^^. This is what I’m doing and why CT was taken. I saw someone else do it and asked why and once they explained I’ve taken it on all my Savage Melee Doms. @Frosticus solid advice and thank you. Let me fool around a bit with some power changes and slotting.

(Not sure if new MIDS exports correctly, first time trying it with this new version) This Dom is going for almost exclusively melee attacks, thus I built for S/L/M instead of Ranged. And Combat Teleport gets me hopping around inside of melee range frequently, along with Feral Charge. Think "Nightcrawler" circus escapee from the House of Mirrors. Bit more themed than min/max. However, I'm struggling a bit with +Recharge. I'm a bit shy of perma-Dom which to me is really a significant part of the AT. Once I get Ageless that issue goes away but until then, missing it I think. Thoughts? End is manageable and I have hundreds of Amplifiers so I use as substitutes until I get my Incarnates. Stats picture shown is with all three Amplifiers running. This Villain build was built using Mids Reborn 3.4.7 https://github.com/LoadedCamel/MidsReborn Click this DataLink to open the build!

Until (unless) Mids is updated, you likely aren't going to see any builds posted for Illusion/anything for Dom's. No way to create/share one easily. My suggestion is go search for Dark/Psi builds for Dom's. Dark and Ill share similar powers from a slotting perspective. You can also hop over to the Controller forums and look at any number of Illusion builds for inspirations. *EDIT* Totally ignore what I just said. Mids Reborn just updated today and you can build an Ill/Psi or any other Ill/* Dominator now with new build. Go here for instructions:

Was about to say Plainguy....you are now FORCED to take pets with your Petless builds lol. Pretty mean of the devs there....they did this just to spite you! Although gotta admit, between the Spectres and the way Soul Extraction works now, my Necro/Storm is a visually busy set. Kinda fun!

Not a fan of Hurricane once I get past my 30’s. If I solo’d extensively perhaps but by 40’s it generally fast moving teams and DPS trumps most defensive playstyles that would make heavy use of ‘cane. Obviously, beauty in the eye and all that but unless I’m solo’ing I just don’t have much use for it, and when I solo with this build, Melee softcapped DEF renders Hurricane largely unneeded to get in close for the PBAoE. Rain of Fire is just like any other rain. I either use it as an area denial rain and/or a finisher for a spawn. Or in the case of the build I posted, a place for a 4 piece of Superior Scourging Blast for the +END/+Recovery (Storm is always an endurance hog set) and +Recharge bonuses.

Haven't seen an update in a good long while....

I three slot mine and it makes a great immob when it goes off: Caltrops -- FrzBls-Rchg/ImmobProc(A), JvlVll-Dam%(45), ImpSwf-Dam%(45)

I -reeeeeeeeeaaaaaalllllyyyyyy- am missing MIDS right about now. I pulled up my Ice/Savage Dom and my Dark/Dark Dom and my Ill/Storm 'troller and cobbled together a handwritten build for an Ill/Dark and an Ill/Savage. Right now the Ill/Savage 'feels' better to me...especially with taking the Teleport pool for Combat Teleport and Fold Space. Just hopping all over the battlefield while my "Mirror Images" do their thing makes me feel very much like "Nightcrawler" but with some extra tricks. But I really miss playing without having a build plan already in mind. I sense several respecs for this alt until I get it to where I want it. Ill/Dark is good too, but I'm already thinking it will play second fiddle to Ill/Savage.

They are listed in first post of this thread, AA has kept that updated. I also want to thank @America's Angel for showing the masses that it can, in fact, be done. I have my original Spines/Fire brute running AFK right now in one session while dual boxing an active DP/Temporal blaster farmer in a S/L farm in another, Power-farming a new alt on a third account. -Active- farming requires almost zero changes to your farming brutes. Maybe make a second macro for purples instead of just turning everything into reds, or just click the purps as they drop. No issues. AFK farming you'll need to respec and, as AA indicates, either grab the P2W Defense Amplifier (and Survival one while at it as the regen doesnt hurt) or simply ensure you've got all the accolades. No reason to delete that Vet level 300+ farmer...still works just fine in the modified farms. Yes, PL'ing goes slower now. Yes, you'll earn less influence. But if you -truly- desire the "farming playstyle" like so many people have bitched and moaned about with every nerf, then you -CAN STILL FARM.- In fact, if you really enjoy the mound of dead bodies at your feet, I'd argue it's better now than ever before because you pull aggro from just about any of the critters walking near you without even trying. If you really want the best total influence per hour you can get, I'd argue this is still in the top 3 ways to do that outside of marketeering (which to me can get quite tedious and boring, but YMMV). Do I think these changes were necessary? Nope. Do I think the Devs have decided they aren't as favorable towards (in particular) AFK farming as other methods of playing their game? I think all but a moron would infer that based on these targeted changes to farming powers, AE behaviors and AE rewards. You -CAN- still do what you once did but not for the same reward vs. the risk and definitely vs. the investment required to get there. But at any rate, thanks AA. Follow the instructions in post one and farming AE is still very do-able.

The TOE Proc is the only one of the set to give a chance to return END (+10). And although I don't think it says in-game it's "Unique" I can only slot one into Siphon Life...it won't let me slot multiples.

Can confirm this is also similar outcomes when slotting a single Res/End Hami-O (lvl 50) in my Necro/Storm MM. And yes, I dismiss/resummon after slotting. And further, it seems to differ depending on which henchman I’m targeting when running the upgrades. I originally thought it was the level difference of the henchmen relative to the caster, but even when I consistently target my Lich (highest level henchmen class) I get the same outcome.

Have had this happen in Talos once just using the /respec command. Zoning to Atlas fixed it. Prior to zoning, respec failed twice, i did a logoff, logged back in, and failed respec a third time. Zoning seems to resolve a lot of weird bugs like this.

Honestly, I think the vast majority of MM's had just a single EndRedux in their two upgrade powers. I did also. Too lazy to do a full respec until Mids is finally updated, I just swapped those out with a Golgi Hami-O (End/Heal) and a Ribosome Hami-O (DmgRes/End) on my Necro/Storm. I really see no need to move any other slots around as on a Necro all the +Def/+Res aura's were already slotted into the Soul Extraction power and there's not a whole lot more worth slotting there. I may look to my other MM's to do same treatment as the Dual enhancement power of Hami-O's and their kindred gives you a nice buff without having to do a full respec.

Thanks for the reply! I'm currently running Pylon tests with my Thugs/Storm and my Necro/Storm. Thus far, I'm not sure double gang war would be any worse/better than double Souls. But of course that's a stationary target and different attack types. But I appreciate that you've considered everything "in context" here.

Anyone catch the dev comment on this in the MM changes feedback thread? Sure it’s situational but if you play /Storm MM’s and proc out with a bunch of FF+Recharge, Burnout and Gangwar both recharge almost every other spawn. So it’s a pretty cool party trick. But when it was noticed that Soul Extraction didn’t work with Burnout we were told it’s working as intended. Thematically it makes sense as even zombies should only have one soul each. But it makes me wonder if Gang War is going to get the same treatment when the rest of MM sets get their “adjustments.” *edit to include comment/thread*

Speaking of procs….. In evaluating slotting choices for Necro now, I’ve got a Necro/Storm that like most stormies is always thirsty for more +END. Life drain can take heal procs, always could. But I’ve never really had a reason to slot it up before. As an attack it makes more sense to do so now. If I put heal procs like Absorb or Theft of Essence….who gets the benefit of those procs? Myself, the caster of the power and the recipient of any healing returned, or my target? Last thing I want to do is buff my target of an attack.

Look to the master….their build had all three personal attacks and all the other goodies you’d really need. You might want to throw a few slots around but it’s a great starting point. It was already the best Ninja build I’d ever played but the buffs -even without any slot changes- just made them crit more!

Doesn't really matter as MIDS hasn't been updated for current issue so you can't really build an Ill/anything Dominator in it right now. My suggestion is to look at a number of the Dark/Dark Dom builds (plenty here) and some of the Illusion builds over on the Controller forums and cobble together what you want from those. Personally, I'm going Ill/Dark/Dark. END hungry builds, even with perma-dom.

I'm not playing as much these days as I was (Steam Deck has me finally churning my backlog of games) but I did log on yesterday and played my old Ninja/Time build (modified version of @Redlynne's 'It's aBOW Time" build). That has all three bow attacks, all highly procc'd. While my bow attacks remain abysmally bad (Oh lookit, I hit that guy for 45 damage!), the chance to crit mechanic from personal attacks + revised Smoke Flash is really, really noticeable. I've not seen much yet from the enhanced +Heal and +DEF mechanics, but since I'm already running Destiny Barrier, not much additional +DEF needed outside of hard mode stuff....and we all know most MM's aren't welcome in those anyways. Ninja's were always fun to play, and the changes really seem to have given them some more teeth. Haven't tried my necro yet and I've never been fond of Mercs so won't bother with those. Still seems like one of the lower tier sets to me.
