As the build is tight and I didn't have any slots to spare I used a single level 50 resist IO

Here's what I've been running, my main for a number of years and only a small handful of changes over that time. DoD.mbd

I've recently tweaked by demon/time build and it seems fine to me to possibly give you another option for a build. I built it to get farsight and chrono shift up as quickly as possible, while I only have lash from the whip attacks I do have the sorcery pool for arcane bolt and ROP. Mastermind - Demon Summoning - Time Manipulation.mbd

While I haven't leveled up a necro/storm I have managed to get a demon/storm and a bots/storm to 50. My biggest take aways for storm is recharge and end management to get multiple lightning storms up and running. Skippable powers seem to be O2 boost snow storm, thunder clap and hurricane, even though I seem to always add cane to my builds for the chaos moments. With necro and soul extraction what I like to do is 2 pieces of the of the mark of supremacy set for the recharge bonus and then 4 of the unique pet IO's. Necro essential powers are open for debate on if you want the attacks to get the added ghosts, if you're like me then you'll take all the attacks for the ghosts....more pets but that opens up slotting questions which others can probably help you with

Hey there Americana, I have an illusion/dark troller that I can post shortly for you.....just need to upload the build into MIDS. It's a fun combo that I enjoyed so much....I made a 2nd one

I would keep leadership pool, the benefits to your team which includes your pets can be very helpful with maneuvers and tactics. I would drop speed, never felt it was really needed on any of my MM's and would swap dark epic for either soul(dark embrace, oppressive gloom and soul storm) or mace mastery (scorpion shield and power boost)

On the MIDS discord page there's a download and instructions to update it

So I've come up with this for my DM/Regen scrapper.........kinda a mixed bag for right now but has done well on some testing. Not sure how I feel about it yet. Scrapperlock - Scrapper (Dark Melee - Regeneration).mbd

Yes, the second wind power is a revive and max HP power

Going through the same thing.....I know I need to respec my dm/regen build but haven't quite figured out how yet. May just go the trial and error plan to see what works for him

Since my main has been a dark/dark troller since 2019 when I came back to the game, thought I'd share. I've tweaked the build several times over the years to get me some interesting finds...such as combat TP into a mob hoping the BU proc goes off then dropping a proc'd out heart of darkness nuke and then following that up with shadowfield to hold/debuff and then whatever I feel like to the remaining mobs. As far as soloing AV's haven't tried but against most everything else......no problem. Built for defense and resists with some serious proc love in some powers. Hope you like Doc M Proposed Final- Controller (Darkness Control).mbd

My favorite MM has to be my demon/dark, I've spent more time playing and tweaking her build than any other toon I have.

I've got another mastermind itch that needs to be scratched......I'm building a team with 3 masterminds to run through villain side content and I'm struggling on which primaries to go with. Currently I'm deciding between demon, necro, bots and ninjas as the primaries I'm leaning towards as they're the ones I have the most familiarities. Of those 4 which does anyone think would be the most fun choice for the team or if you have one I may be leaving out that could be really interesting that I'm not as familiar with.....such as mercs, thugs and beast. Thanks for any assistance with my little dilemma. Doc M

A few things to remember that the pet unique IO's go long way in helping your pets resist/defenses numbers as well as running them in defensive or BG state to mitigate some of the damage they take. Have yet to try FF but I can speak very highly of dark with regards to masterminds.

........I like tanky MM builds, they be fun
