Nope Nope, I remember starting playing this game when CoV was launched and Fitness had to be chosen as a power pick. It was did not become an inherent power until Issue 19. So old school days you waited till level 20 and you liked it. Although I think most ATs sucked before 20 as you got stamina then.

Shouldn't you ask how the update is doing? After asking where and who, it must be going through some identity crisis now.

Fire Epic, is not there for thematic purpose, I think I just had it there, mainly there as I had it there cause I did have what I had originally on the build which is currently on the build. This is just a 1.2 re-tweak of the build which feels better than what I have right now, but does not kinda feel good on paper yet. So I will look at taking the Psi epic as a replacement for fire and piece around stuff. Also originally in my re-tweak I did have arcane bolt 5-slotted with Apocalypse which I think gives the best oomph, but I forgot about a couple of other pieces I did not slot properly. Which kinda made a mess at the end. If going Psi mastery for Indomitdable gives the mez resistance, I would easily move off RoP, as that was more for the emergency button. I will take a look at the Camel thread and see what he has done out and make my plans accordingly.

A true guide to Doms under 5 secs. 90 secs for perma-dom.

I was going over an old build of mine which I was never happy with, which was my Fire/Dark troller. I went through what it currently has on it it and trying to change and retool the character. I do not think I had a real specific goal in mind like perma-fade, just looking for a nice well rounded character. I think it is almost there, but maybe missing a spot or two. I just wanted to see if there was something obvious I missed before I started the retooling. Controller (Fire Control - Darkness Affinity) 2.mbd

Primarily originally for the Silver Mantis SF back in the day, and CoP trial. That is the two thinga I remember doing on live with them.

Is the 117.5% recharge with hasten running or just you base level global bonus recharge? If that is you global recharge minus hasten then you are more than golden with a bit of buffer room. Unless you are getting crammed with a lot of slow or -rech effects. Which the Ageless will counter act if you have that T4 version, then you are fine.

I think you can go with no hasten and make it Perma-dom, if that is the goal, it might be just a bit of planning to make sure to go there. I would not skip on the fire armor epic, as it gives too much resistance numbers for you powers. You can take CJ, Leadership, Force of Will set for travel power, then Fire Epic, with the primary and secondary, it should be doable? I would have to look more into it in Mids. Skipping hasten just adds another power which could take a LoTG mule if you are short for that.

Majority of people try to make domination permanent, as it is easily achievable and it has a very clear upside aside from just more endurance but improved holds and Mez protection. Even minor min/maxing people will try and get that. It is not needed but people will always go for it as it is just clear mechanical improvements. It turns the tied in all field of combat, while not always needed and people do not need it, there is an advantage with it when going against tougher encounters or increasing difficulty Also I play the game and the end game. I plot and plan out my character from 1-50 and then redefine them at 50+ if I want more out of them. For my dominators, and most other ATs as I have seen other commentators on this sub-forum say, I play the character to understand the combo I picked, which powers work and what doesn't work. Once I know what I like and do not like I will make a build and refine it over and over again, getting peer reviews until I get something I am happy with.

I mean as a wrestling fan in real life MMOs do not really have that unless you are going one on one with an AV, then you want perma dom anyway as it still is quite a tussle. While certain builds can do it easily, it is not just a walk in the park. Also since we cannot control the number and rolled for you and against you like how it is planned in wrestling the moment for your signature move does not match that fully. The best you can do usually is to take advantage of the mechanics of the game and work best to leverage to what you desire and want.

I do not have a farmer, and never had any interest in farming or Auction House work in this game. While I am probably low on alt counts sitting around 26 lvl 50 characters. Easily most of them are pretty much fully kitted out. While the one I def call my mains are highly kitted out. Unless you want to immediately want to get all the powers slotted with purples, winters, PVPs, etc you can make quite a bit of money playing the game and through merits to get the gear you need. Just takes some planning on what your goals for a character are.

Glad to see the Girls from Triumph back, hopefully I will see ya around on Excel when I am around.

Never got to experience that, only read about it on the wiki, and I would love to see that in game, especially if it is designed to be no holds barred against us. Also the Rularuu invasion from Issue 2 would be really cool to reintroduce as I read up about that stuff. In a way you could use the Shard TFs to trigger that in a zone possibly? Give them some more juice to do than just when they are WSFs.

As others said the Fiery Orb ATO is nothing to go home about. For creepers the best thing to slot would just be procs, primarly the AOE dam procs as those go off the most for for it. Then others after to fill out what ya need.

Sounds good, I am interested to see what you plan out with /earth, as it is a great set, and I had a great time with /Earth Dom. Lots of KD potential and stun effects. Endurance can be heavy at times, but once you get more control under it you can make it a real beast!
