I was in a BAF and there was a discussion on whether incarnate Hybrid works on MM pets. Some didn't seem to believe it does. So made a video, Thugs with T3 Assault Radial Total Graft, Hybrid. Any line in the pet damage that says "Doublehit" is damage done by Hybrid Assault. It doesn't seem to proc when the damage is low, for example DoTs done by the Arsonist. It does seem to activate frequently when a hit does 50+ points of damage.

Note 1: If you're doing incarnates, it's possible to get 100% resist to hold, stuns, fear and immobilize. Get T4 Control Hybrid and slot something similar to the following: | Copy & Paste this data into Mids' Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1373;610;1220;HEX;| |78DA6554D96ED340141D672164298913D2245D08A449292D7513C13B128B00A9962| |AA5EF91954C5B8BC431B623CA233F422908C422F1005DE057101F000F40F982707B| |EFA519C996728E7DEE993377C69E98BB77331FEF3FBB25B4DC9DBEE5FB1DD3F203E| |90D6CA71737AD6DBB1B154224DB96D3F383A13748C0D3FCC4D2698F0683A16398D2| |EB4AC7F26CE95795EAEDD1D696D13E1DC746DBD9D61F3A3BD2934E60FCBF496D0C8| |77DA3ED4AD9D3F1D6B41CDB1DF5ADC01E3A5954D6A5D5939EBF63BB797CDE947DE9| |0EBD002D957BAEDD351E482BE0E69F76DA81D57F24BD3274BB08BFBDB8E06B1C176| |3B84444C19882E710DDD8995F90FF31281A299AF603F6A41513F59FC40BB02951AE| |45BF45506B7D27DE8799E39C14C7240F921218358E245039AFA00FD52455E3C9948| |619A934738638834EC20B88AF608A34AF2FADE83905F30ACE40C753DCD5142A01CC| |9BE5842C2AD30A968F633873F90BF1CC57E21AE4E8BC161D9D17151C81A940D5588| |1E6459C53F012A20E3945CE29A2B28CB88AD8806A89BB2DA1F21AD65BE16E2B4A0E| |E1E510E6216196F2C52C2A0550E6B9B7F9E7F4AEAEEC31BF60DE27AEBF247E03B35| |6B98F2AA63C8115D64889D54EC8B5F097191D8475C45D7037B8EBC65BDAC1C577CC| |E820BCAA6041176289C72C1D90F7DA21F311B3B263844518B5C27DAD7C16E8BA7EC| |07CC87C44BC7A4C3C0D630C1A133530658DF03DCDB2F681B804BE26F9224D74B414| |9C0B9D9CE590D20C29AD907223A4DC3C553455590F29E664D4786372628586D564E| |EEC9C8E7FA5A0AAA9D53F1345D394AFEF77C8793251229AF2AF416FEC137C102DAA| |8EFF01D71CD52E| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| Note 2: Just slot Sudden Acceleration KB to KD into Tornado. It's not a unique. I have it slotted in Gale, Tornado, Hurricane and Lightning Storm. That one IO is a game changer for Storm. Note 2.3: Superior Frozen Blast proc has a chance to immob. Slot it in Freezing Rain. But I would slot Gale and focus on keeping enemies KD'd in your AoEs.

MA/WP, but it's an SR build? Don't limit yourself to only stuns. This build has a chance to apply all types of mez (Except sleep) spread throughout all attacks. In the build below, CAK alone has a chance to stun, slow, immobilize, hold, confuse and fear. No real attack chain, just use whatever is recharged. | Copy & Paste this data into Mids' Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1561;751;1502;HEX;| |78DA65544B4F135114BEB733053A6568A16081D2D296770BA5C5C7C644634489B43| |544D01DD6295C6074D2369D8194850BFF82465D292F17AE58B8F35FF8DCE9C21FE0| |636D62EA993907DAD0499AEFDCEFDEEF9C6FCEB9D37C6DBEF378E1C955C6D5EB866| |69A85654B331E896A477EDBD22CBD5C62F6D30EBF41DA29E48521442AAF552D5D33| |0AD7AA961939D99A171BA2648AD4F276055677C486216AC264CA52B96CA4962B42A| |CAB4E7853DFDCB2F4D266B7B3BA55DAD14DBDA81BBAB5EB73989CD0D645D5DCD22B| |911B157D2D75923F277674CDDAD24A85BC665AA2BADB0FC666E0F7CAC3E8A9BBD90| |640C6C35C9B8459C0B0CCE415C038E043E4DB1ECB80325BB5B5DCD132D6C79DBDFB| |C071E464AE20D7E6B5D1CD3A3A0955E4151F620134126924D27491C6EF6864E6274| |D0F69F640E326DF6EF2D9F35172CEF67E22FC8C78EE0BE157C47D0F0EC6AED7BEE7| |72B8FE7DC20397937FF010D78347B88E83C0831E5D9E24F661E80C3E80BC5E3CC3B| |D763F12328BFC436FAF614F25BFEA07F411A17E46C87FF418DF2DBA8235A377D183| |065A1FF5D91743CD2170DD94AF9BE616A3B9C56ADCC9175B44FD08D519A13A45D00| |6285F807C7278BF3ECCC7FAEAF030099820323C18B433428639C9C974041906A8FA| |00551FA5EAA3CFF1768CEAB81EFF816F3B4ED5D7401BA2EA21FB0AC29E0CB5C2C8B| |9C30A4E7CDC8B384137604225EC429CF221BE817CC3E46598BC4C919729EA44228B| |9D48502712E4651DB4719A58DC8FDD9FA69BAC82A731DA1B3BB3F70D5E69926A4EC| |E61EEE91CE2CC6DC28B8497709AB3EFB12FDF419B246D721ACFCCFE257C8BFDC82C| |E03A93466D26836B017E5334A55416FB7A005C9AB87412F521F9F4ABAE0F35627B0| |9934DB430E91626D3C29C6F612EB430B966E632802CB12599FE2480E351F4E7F1C3| |174FFE7E2AA7FF188CD37DF8DDE0385F84604266CA3D9CF7AFE6F39378FE4F8393F| |853EC59E733C217885D2FB187B900009EAD8FF436624DB1AB615C6C8A979AE2D5A6| |F85DBCA1BD126CC4FF016A5EEFEA| |-------------------------------------------------------------------|

Only take all the attacks from the Fighting Pool if you pvp. Can see it in Pine's. Switch it to PvP mode, pick Boxing and Kick and checkout their damage output. They have a higher base damage and will out dps 99% of the attacks in game. Their recharge is so fast that, Boxing-Kick-repeat, attack chain is easily achievable.

Checkout this one min video of the Soulbound BU proc. The little pink/purple circle, that looks like Super Reflex's Quickness symbol, is the BU buff icon. It occurs often, sometimes proccing twice in a short span for a double buff.

This is how I would slot them. Overwhelming proc to add a chance to knockdown with all the Drones' attacks, Soulbound for it's frequent damage boost. Empty slots in Protector is for LotG +def, LotG +7.5% and a mule for the Shield Wall unique. Blessing of the Zephyr KB protection added to Afterburner. The changed pet slotting makes Hasten and Chrono Shift perma when they're both kept active. | Copy & Paste this data into Mids' Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;1477;724;1448;HEX;| |78DA6594CF4F135110C7DF6BB7407F412B941F85020569B14069054F1E4C0441C42| |A11443D91520A6CB2DD25B635F6E8BFA0895E8C7A335E3C1813091AA38917BCE80D| |54D4E8CD8380BFCEEBB0DF4921E9A6EDA76FDE9B37F39D376F53D7473D8FC76F9C1| |0D237A2A5F3F9B9543A5FC85ECDA9FA826B269B59D60DCD582AD985103523A58C66| |E8C57C350D82FBCBE6A68BB99CA1C72F18F34641CDE4C307A64E161717E3336A2E4| |BDBEAEA4A514B17544317DE29C3D0E263EAD27241D597DC18697B43BFF57F42BFA6| |E6D57955530B259765995EC96617DA4EADA899F881ED53E94C96132E35535611FAA| |E39043FA6437CB709115284ED070DA3C4594588A422946F76F032C65523368B1B81| |B2AF140FA5650B3F0237694E624E9193B055A5C09A73CCF3A06B0AFC403E76CEC5F| |E1C315CCF40DF2A78688DF9146C7802DF17A403524CE1080BCB26A9F4D56CAB36E9| |111F2982933376F6615523F325B9BB39BA3BB467730ACF4528F658DEB59730AAB54| |63EEBD74901BC9650D3E60D2097061FD8580F7EA2A875BC73DD066ADCBCC9BC2F2D| |B63F003BEF31EF8276DADF8FFD1DFE63D8EFF03033C14C8283479943E016C5ADE73| |3A89F40BD3A4F83E171E618D83D0A2A142FC07A02ACA79BF574B31E2FAD69E29C9A| |FEA03762DBE0C06F7070074CEE327F81AFA8CA2D5C8B9619D433F80673C1BFC8A1E| |D1F4EA46D1DF6F62B58F799F4B4726EAD9CDB4003D30F76516E21AC91213ED976E6| |6B8ADDC1FDD0C13DF285F6ECE21A75BD45FCE83BF0C87B66106B63EB187F259F1ED| |6DFC3BD1BE11E8F708F47B8C7A3DCE3D15BF05D2549BDACA19735F4B3867EAEF3B6| |47883EAC117D9CBB9B74C539F7F87182421B350A91605B628B6BA794EF247DF63A3| |45661495458921596A10ACB7085E56C8525B56F31A794F21B4048DC155FF97E9B3F| |5D34CB1AE50034EEECDB6CF28CB4DE41B159D42419462F6C1FF4EB85DFAEAB1CC92| |6EFF099DD04FB6F8393741192F033FF037F35FC1E| |-------------------------------------------------------------------|

That's a strong MM build and can probably get you through anything. Few things I can recommend: 1. It needs KB protection. 2. Fly already flies at top speed with no enhancement slotted. Can skip the HamiO. 3. Imo, the Leadership PP is too good to pass on an MM. 4. Your MM looks very survivable but pets are less so. Slotting Edict, Call to Arms, Expedient, and Superior AT IOs(x2), would add a significant amount of mitigation for your pets. I recommend slotting Soulbound Allegiance Chance for BU, in your Drones. Been testing it on Mercs, and very happy how often it procs. Around 18 times/minute split between 3 pets.

During live, several players tried Water Spout and had increased dps. It has a duration of 30 seconds, and with a good amount of recharge, it can probably be up every 45-50 seconds. WS can slot the Achilles' Heel proc, and now with i25, the Annihilation proc too which may result in a double -res debuff.

That's amazing, fantastic job! I knew TW was good but not this phenomenal. Would Achilles' Heel in CB and/or using Water Spout instead of Moonbeam improve the time? It's not a big deal to shutoff toggles while pylon testing. I did the same with StJ/SR on my run. Focused Fighting, Focused Senses, Ninja Run and Sprint were off. Pylon testing is nonstop attack while regular gameplay, end has a chance to replenish when moving from enemy to enemy.

I like NB a lot. The Stalker version lost Confront/Lotus Drops for Placate/Assassin's Blade. Other than that, it's pretty much the same. NB is all lethal damage, the most resisted damage type in the game, but can slot the Achilles' Heel -res proc to make up for it. Divine Avalanche's +lethal/melee def can help a lot of secondaries. I recall a former player doing the Rikti Challenge on a Kat/Regen Scrapper. NB/Regen Stalker could probably have similar success.

I would go with Assault Bot or Battle Drones. Assault Bot to add a chance to KD to all it's attacks and to change Plasma Blast/Dual Plasma Blast from KB to KD. Battle Drones are squishier. OF will provide them a bit of mitgation by KDing it's enemies. Also 3 bots vs 1 bot would give OF more chances to proc. Though one of four powers (Heavy Laser Burst) can KD already. I would avoid Protector Bots. They have 6 powers, 2 of which are not attacks (Force Shield/Repair). Not sure if OF would work on Seeker Drones. Or slot OF in the pet that needs an uptick in it's damage stat. Like if Assault Bot is in the red with +98% damage, while Drones are in the green with +82%. Slot it in Battle Drones.

Have you tried Moonbeam and running Soul Drain+Tactics+Kismet 6%? That would add up to enough +tohit to turn MB into an instant-snipe. I think it would have the highest dps out of DM's attacks, though I don't think ancillary/epic attacks get a Scrapper's boosted chance to crit.

I remember there was player who made a petless MM. Maybe Whips/Traps. He was able to solo Rikti pylons. It wasn't super fast but still very impressive.

I think Thugs/Storm would be the most fun MM combo to play. Take Burnout from the Speed Power Pool and Ageless Incarnate. Every 8-ish minutes, cast Freezing Rain - Lightning Storm - Tornado - Gang War - Ageless - Burnout - Gang War - Tornado - Freezing Rain - Lightning Storm. Doubling up on all your best moves. Everything would be getting hit with cold, smashing, lethal and energy damage. Knockup, knockdown, knocked all round while inducing fear, stuns and slow. Absolute chaos.

It's kind of an old post. I've pretty much disregarded and deleted most builds to start fresh. Here's the slotting for Thugs that I plan to respec to in the near future. Empty slot in Enforcers has the Shield Breaker proc; empty slot in Bruiser is for the Sudden Acceleration proc. | Copy & Paste this data into Mids' Hero Designer to view the build | |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |MxDz;816;384;768;HEX;| |78DA6D90CD4EC2401485A7D0AA482520468580EC34BA68241A77C6C4A2C6842624E| |2DF8A54296592D21AA635B2F4857C07631430F12174E7C29F445DD76B6722D8F1A6| |D3D3FB9DF6CCED681725F96AE772030949D5D209A9693A718D760BDBF531CD73751| |73B7614418DC29A1998B53DAFD5726CA5DAF44C5218E29B5EA3A1A88E55AF951C00| |41004A551CC75276ED734CF009B6B0DB9908C836369B2EB64D9975AE6D1012A78DF| |5E3A5B7CEF0A9A236F5B669B0D13AB330C93CAC1B09B1F225F40843164514798A20| |94073D10835E7C067B01F488F6236A24506BF1F75BB8A0821BAD5BC895982785BC2| |E1871B6673C0F528C21799F66CBD7909D1651E290F68907BA573294D1838C14CB48| |7DD077263F99DED1FF98EA32ED519DEE53F5FF561FA2322C2A53A5DB66D7A015A32| |8BB4E35D7A163E5BE50E0CF1D8BA1A87B4829B01F2E8486FDAF7262F8F09638B2CC| |9122475638B2CA913247B401F12BF02C305708DC5812A128735FC6C11586DD378EB| |C72E49D23E5341C1825FE37490A0BB8| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| Have a look. Pretty much all my MM builds will have similar slotting.

Welcome home, Obitus! I'm still using your dps calculator.

I think SC has the better dps. SC has a 91.76 base damage/1.848 cast time = 49.65 dps. SS has a 94.2 base damage/1.98 cast time = 47.58 dps. Also the Fury of the Gladiator -res debuff proc is slotted in SC, and has the stronger proc (Armageddon). By using IS and SC instead of HB and SS, the attack chain is fast enough that BU can be cast before any AS, with CU still getting the damage boost.

StJ/SR Stalker. T3 Musculature Total Radial, T3 Reactive Total Radial and T4 Assault Radial (Untoggled). 119 seconds for 450 dps. Disregard the watermark from the free software. I couldn't figure out how to record the video with sound.

Reactive and Preemptive Interface, Incarnate powers should be able to do it.

KM/Bio. Just to see that human shape, blob of poop, doing tai chi and hearing that hand crank flashlight noise.

I should rephrase that. I send influence to myself from one of my high level characters to one of my new, low level characters.

I would go one end, one acc and one dam. Is this your first character? I often email 2 million influence from a high level to a low level. It usually lasts until they hit 50.

I think they're pet summons that can't be controlled by the player. So all the Controller/Dominator pets, Epic Power Pool pets, Tornado, Gun Drone, Voltaic Sentinel, Gang War, Hell on Earth, Soul Extraction, Arachnos spiders etc. Dark Servant probably doesn't fall into the category because it has no attacks.

I like your build a lot, it's probably better than anything I could come up with. I wanted to offer some fine-tuning advice. -Hasten is already perma with 2 slots. -For the Kismet +6% acc to be active, Combat Jump needs to be toggled on. Slotting it in Phalanx Fighting, Kismet would be active all the time. Useful if you're rezzed, and you LR/SC immediately to knock enemies off their feet before toggling. -Swapping the Ribosome HO (In Tough) for the Unbreakable Guard res/end would provide a 2.5% endurance discount (Set bonus) for all your powers. Enhancement Boosters can get the stats about the same as the HO. -A lot of players like to slot the rech/def HO in Active Defense. The def portion of the HO increases DDR, rech so you can overlap the casting to double the effects. -4 Gift of the Ancients in Weave increases max end by 1.8%. Changing a slot to Stamina for a 4th Performance Shifter would yield a better result (If you're slotting it for endurance).

No problem, let me know how it works out. People were using SK-CS-SK-CAK. With EC, probably SK-CS-SK-EC-CAK or maybe SK-CS-EC-CAK. I sort of like the sound of the second attack chain with EC. EC could probably be used twice within one BU, which would be pretty nice if it crits both times.
