You

/thermal? Any taker?

Did you put Soulbound BU pro in Gangwar as well? Thanks!

Can someone recommend me a powerful end drain build? Thanks!

How about bots? What proc are available to slot them? Thanks!

I have reading on Poison over in the Defender and MM forums. I like the set. I am curious which controller primary would go well with Poison? Thanks!

Poison is everything you need except Venomous Gas. If only it can be casted onto someone else or has a wider radius. The numbers on the MM version are not as high but it makes up for in damage. Poison is still better on a MM.

Not really a bug or major issue. But either, as mentioned above, remove melee attacks from range pets or add an immo to the GoTo function to prevent pets from running off (and remove the effect when use Follow). We already have a set of pure melee pets why can’t we have pure ranged pets? Brawl may be needed at a lower level to fill in the gap of an attack chain. But by the second upgrade, it can be deactivated all together. In fact, add the function to the second upgrade whereby brawl is to be deactivated. Adding on/off immo to Goto/Follow should be quite easy and address the issue of pets running away. I have been a long term bots player. It always annoys me to see one little bot running into melee range to punch someone in the face when I ask specifically ask them to GoTo as spot and shoot. Add an immo (only being turn off on Follow) hopefully would remedy that.

Well, I know Staff is no TW. But it is a fun set and besides I am prioritising dps right after tanking (of course having good dps would be a nice bonus to have). My aim is to build a sturdy tank with both primary and secondary working together.

I find staff rather interesting. But which armour set to pair with it makes the most out of Staff? Please advise. Thanks!

I am actually trying to build a tank that does not put damage as a priority after tanking. I want to see if there is a set-combo that is first tanky than offer some other effects - like control or debuff. Any suggestion?

Shriek x5 will not stack -res 5 times. It will remain -20. It stacks with other power though.

Would Poison / Sonic both solo and team better?

Would Poison Water for team support and target debuff be a good combo? Thanks!

I am trying to get into Controller since I have tried most other ATs. I am thinking of either Illusion or Darkness. Having looked at the numbers in-game, I still cannot work out which one between Phantom Amy and Haunts do more damage. Also, apart from damage, what else do those two sets of pets bring? Please give me some advice on choosing between the two sets. Thanks!

sleet has the same -defense of freezing rain at 30% unenhanced the -resist on these powers is resistable based on level difference. it will only give you 30% resist debuff on same level minions. achilles heel will always be -20% regardless of level difference. farsight provides the same defensive bonus as both cold shields together and unlike the shields, provides that defense to all as well as a +tohit buff for your pets. time also has a superior heal. cold has superior -regen if you can slot enough recharge to make it permanent. Time is of course very good. Just MM's pets cannot make the most of the +recharge somewhat lower the effectiveness of the set. Besides, if -regen is good for both solo and group contents anyway.

Would Beast/Time do well? Anyone has any thoughts on that combo?

Cold is sort of a late bloomer. Once you get Benumbed and Sleet, and with good recharge, it will be a very good set. The average -regen, -res and -def of Cold are higher than Trap and Dark. Although Poison Trap has a very high -regen but it’s duration is short and on a longer cool down. Similarly, Howling Twilight has same problem although with a high recharge, it will get better. That said, Heat Exhaustion appears to be able to sustain a even higher -regen uptime. Even double Acid Mortar can’t compete with double Sleet because Mortar has a slightly lower base -res and -def. One thing about Cold though is that you have to take all the powers which limits the build flexibility a bit. It is best to pair with bots, thugs or beasts.

Would PB stands a better chance at it?

Is there a way to monitor how much an enemy is being debuffed (similar to the way one can monitor an character’s powers)? Thanks!

Any recommended beast build? Thanks!

I am hoping to make a Bio tank. I know TW is the best DPS out there, but I want something slightly different: I want the secondary power with a bit more utilities (could be some form of KB soft control or -def debuff - just to give two examples). Which secondary would fit this build concept? Thanks!

How’s your PB these days then? Still doing good in PVP?

AMAZING!! THANKS! How long does each debuff last? I should suspect it would last for a bit

Nature is too new to me. But I have looked into numbers. It seems ok: it does decent -regen and -res for bosses (obviously not as high as Poison Trap and Howling Twilight but it’s serviceable). Heals and other things are good too. I can skip the rez and hold in order to make the build a bit more flexible. Anyone has any experience on the set? Thanks!

Can we see the numbers of our targets when we debuff them? Like how we can see our own numbers on, e.g. def, regen, damage etc.?
