  1. Got 0 experience with this combo. Nature wants massive amounts of recharge, aim for perma overgrowth. I tossed this in mids but its 6 seconds shy, something to look at (swap alpha for agility/spiritual its still 2 seconds shy) NAT STORM - Defender (Nature Affinity - Storm Blast).mbd
  2. If you don't mind shuffling some slot and sets and spending some inf you can really bump your ranged and aoe defence while still keeping perma hasten and the same power picks, you may prefer mu mastery as an epic, still gets you the resist shield and powersink but it would let you drop voltaic for the mu pet (which is much better) and have a spare power pick left over or slots for other powers: Quid Pro Quo Joe - Corruptor (Electrical Blast - Kinetics).mbd
  3. I respecced TK into 2 mind domi's after the rework. I love it, its a mini fold space but with faster recharge and tapping levitate after tk is aoe damage. Not great damage but still better than only having terrify. TK could recharge faster even on domis built for recharge and more recharge so its not up every mob, sometimes its not even up every other mob if your on a team moving at a half decent pace and considering the damage is so low that bothers me. TK starts out base 60 seconds recharge, you can get it down to about 15 if you really go for it with recharge bonuses. A much lower recharge would be better and make it more useful, if your solo thats not a problem. Mass Hypnosis is a power i always take , bit of a hangover from the original game when it was used for master of lord recluse runs, domi perma sleeping the phalanx while a sniper pulls one at a time. Its even more useful with the upgraded TK giving you time to clump the mob together without taking any incoming damage. And its one of the fastest recharging controls.
  4. When they introduced these sets there were a lot of these running about. If you haven't seen any it maybe because players just moved onto other alts. I like both powersets on domi's but i haven't tried them together yet.
  5. Bit late, this is what i've been running. Not great but it is fun and does just fine for 90% of stuff: DEMONS THERMAL - Mastermind (Demon Summoning - Thermal Radiation).mbd
  6. Its rare that anyone builds any AT the same way because nobody plays the game the same way. You don't specify what elec/elec you played on live, sentinels weren't available.

    Pain Dom

    Necro and mercs. Necro is proper tanky, loving it. Its pretty much unkillable and the pets can take some serious hits and the regen aura really helps them out especially now you can slot heal enhances into the upgrade . With mercs i love the stacking of world of pain and serum i just use them as a group flying gun platform, hopping down to debuff the mobs. Resistances on both are high enough they can survive most content easily. I'd like to see suppress pain swapped with fender/corr version soothing aura, it'd benefit every mastermind pet set. As it stands now only the necro pets get any use from it and its skippable on all the others.
  8. Theres a small arrow on the right side of the team next to everyones names, if you click it, it'll open up showing everyones buffs, that way you know who got them on the first application and who thinks they don't need them and legged it off into a mob. And then cried because you didn't buff them.
  9. Good question. I can't remember. You could pop onto beta, create an instant lvl 50 and slot it and test it out.
  10. Junk build. Flight/Thunderstrikes/Artillery pieces. You could take out all the more expensive pvp pieces and just run with a t4 barrier and still hover around ranged softcap. Or you could toss in a bunch of purple sets/damage procs really go all in on recharge, swap in soul for mu and get a nice soul drain and power boost and run ageless and just forget about defence altogether and kill everything faster than it kills you. CHEAPSHOT - Corruptor (Archery - Storm Summoning).mbd
  11. Last power is empty for tactics/evasive manouvres/defibrilate ELEC ELEC - Corruptor (Electrical Blast - Electrical Affinity).mbd
  12. I run a time/dp fender and power build followed by farsight bumps defence massively the same way a power boosted one would, but the numbers drop off once PBU drops. Its been so long since i ran mace mastery with anything but bubbles i haven't checked to see if PB is maintaining the numbers on farsight. Its not the only reason i prefer the resist epics over mace but watching the defence numbers drop after 15 seconds in game after putting together the build in mids is disappointing. If mace maintains the defence then i may give it another spin. I do run a lot of corrs with soul for power boosted clarion for soloing av's and just like the mm's they seem to work way better with a resistance epic (for me) Appreciate the response, worded better than anything i could come up with other than i just don't have a clue about the maths of it or why mids doesn't show the diminishing numbers.
  13. Its got half decent resists but theres some serious problems with it. The 6th slots in scorch/fire sword circle/cloak of fear/laser beam eyes are doing nothing to help it. They are all defence bonuses on a build with 0 defence. Stamina has no performance shifter +end. Dark regen has no theft of essence proc. Health has no panacea. No kismet +to hit in the build. Turn on cloak of darkness and weave and you get some middling defence but endurance issues. It only has 30% slow resistance. I suggest you check out some other /dark armour builds. Just type dark in the brute AT section search box. You'll end up with any post mentioning the word dark so you get the melee builds too but there will be a good few well built /dark armour ones in there somewhere, just scroll a few pages in. Something more like this. Still doesn't have great slow resistance. FIRE DARK - Brute (Fiery Melee - Dark Armor).mbd
  14. You can just take any power you want. Then put in enhances to get the recharge/damage/defence/resistance you want. Straight from wiki: If you are participating in an online multiplayer game, you might see people using the term "Proc." The acronym is not easy to figure out. What is the definition of Proc? Proc stands for Programmed Random Occurrence. How Proc Is Used Proc is a computer gaming term that rhymes with "dock." Proc is used as both a noun and a verb to describe whenever a random gaming item activates or a random gaming event occurs. In this case, its the enhances with a chance to do extra damage/special effect. Touch of Lady Grey: Chance for Negative Energy Damage for instance in the mastermind pets. Softcap: Soft Cap - Unofficial Homecoming Wiki Evasive manouvres- it increases flight speed and control and prevents immobilization. And slots a luck of the gambler 7.5%/winters gift slow resistance/blessings of the zephyr etc. Grou Fly. I love it, Homecoming changed it form the original game, its much better now. Why take it? Mercs are all ranged, if they are out of range of melee attacks they die less. Mercs are slow, group fly lets them keep up when you are in large zones or maps. Group fly can be disabled at Null the Gull in Pocket D if team mates find it annoying. Or its easily turned off. You do not need it. Its just an option. Not much difference between the 2 builds. I was just showing you how easy it is to move slots and enhances around if you want different powers but trying to stay near the 45% softcap. If you want mace and powerboost you can easily take those. Its hard to build for another player without seeing the other players powerpicks. What powers would you take? What powers do you like? All i did was put my 1 of my own builds for mercs/time. Its not the best build. Its just the way i like to play with the powers i want. You need to work out what powers you like. Then put slots in. Then put enhances in. Then shuffle slots and enhances around to get the defence and recharge you want. For example. No attacks. Just a few clicky and distortion field. Mace mastery and powerboost. All i did was shuffle slots and enhances from the above builds. It still says mu but its not. MERCS TIME MU - Mastermind (Mercenaries - Time Manipulation).mbd I don't understand the numbers they look way too high. No idea why. Ah, i see it now. Turn off hybrid support core.
  15. Don't apologise for the translation i was just wondering what language it was. If you want more damage from pets just check out any post by @StrikerFox. They have ton a lot of work testing pet damage and maximising it with extra chance for damage pieces in the pets. Powerboosted farsight only lasts 15 seconds but some of the defence stays with you. I do not know the mathematics of it or even how it works exactly- i do not trust it anymore, its another reason i prefer using a resistance shield like mu or soul. What i see in mids is roughly what i get in game. Powerboosted farsight from mace will show very high numbers- but mids will not show you how far those numbers drop after powerboost wears off. Just taking my original build and throwing in procs in the pets and the fighting pool and flying gives you this: MERCS TIME MU - Mastermind (Mercenaries - Time Manipulation).mbd Or this. You can really do whatever you want, its up to you what powers you want and how tough you want to be, how much recharge you want in your build. How much damage you want pets to do. What power pools you want. You can play about in mids til you get exactly what you want. MERCS TIME MU - Mastermind (Mercenaries - Time Manipulation).mbd
  16. I don't think there's any way to see pet stats in mids. You can go on beta and create a lvl 50 instantly and slot it for 0 if you wanted to see exact numbers. When you mouse over the skill it will show how close you are to 100% in that area. Anything over 100% does not count and thats when you see the red. So if you turn off musculature alpha you will see pet damage drops below 100%, turn it back on it goes over 100% and goes red. The changes you made didn't raise the defence. You have vengeance turned on. You lowered the defence when you removed the winter set entomb in time stop, it gave ranged/energy/negative energy/fire/cold/aoe. A lot. Mids is showing you with 71% smashing and lethal and 69% energy defence. That number drops, 15 seconds roughly once powerboost fades. You still get decent defence from powerboosted farsight but for some reason mids only shows the immediate effects and not the actual numbers 15 seconds later. They will be lower. Theres a rule of 5 when it comes to most enhances. 5 luck of the gambler 7.5% recharge. No.6 and no. 7 don't count. 6 slot farsight with reactive bits. You dropped time crawl and time stop, together they are a large - regen debuff on hard targets, but you do not need them in build. You dropped M30 grenade, it had a force feedback in to get recharge high. If your numbers are right in mids you got perma serum without it which is impressive. The 5th Dark Watcher in TJ gives you a damage bonus that only applies to you, you just gave up all your personal attacks so thats a waste. You put 3 purples into Distortion Field, put all 5 in for recharge bonus. Or 2 slot with stereocilla exposure (Hammi enhances) By putting mace patron shield in you now have 0 resistance to anything when you get hit. That will hurt. You don't need tactics heavily slotted when you have farsight. The gaussian piece will only fire off on you (almost never) and you have 0 personal attack to make use of it. The 4th thunderstrike in burst gives an accuracy bonus. You already have more than you need. Click totals. Bottom left. Recovery. End Drain. If end drain is more than half of recovery it often means endurance issues. I see you translated the above post into spanish or portugese? Hope all this makes sense 🙂 Made a couple modifications. I realised you do have burst still so you have at least 1 attack. MERCS TIME MU v3- Mastermind (Mercenaries - Time Manipulation).mbd
  17. Flashbang/Tear Gas then Liquid Nitrogen/Sleep Nade for the best effects. Firing off sleep nade/LN on their turns out to be a complete waste of time dps'wise. If you want the damage component from the latter 2 it only seems to be effective to fire off one of the first 2 initially.
  18. Its fine on teams at +4, i never tried soloing +4's. Did a lot of itf's at that rep with no problems and i'd just hop into rooms herd them up with times juncture and stick the pets in the centre with a macro. Don't see a lot of tf content run at that rep when teaming except in cimerora. Solo i just run at +2/8 pet damage isn't fantastic it just takes too long to kill stuff.
  19. My old mercs/time (old'ish) a favourite i ended up with 3 of them on different servers. Used to be a great solo gm hunter before page 7. I haven't tested it solo since. Could probably do with some fiddling enhances'wise but i never felt the need. MERCS TIME MU - Mastermind (Mercenaries - Time Manipulation).mbd
  20. Tell me about it 🙂 i often find myself crafting ageless as it starts to suck wind fast but the recharge from all the ff procs is too much fun to give up. I have no problem swapping in mu mastery and taking powersink if i run barrier.
  21. As needed. I sometimes run with resilient alpha too, i find that helps but its a loss in damage from intuition. There's so much to hit debuff you don't need the heal that often with decent ranged defence and high resists. Or what @EnjoyTheJourneysaid. Although i havent tried that yet. I have run it fully 6 slotted with a theft proc and 5 nictus pieces, good bonuses but a lot of slots and i tend to have to give up recharge bonuses which makes me sad.
  22. The numi proc would be better in health if your removing the heal from life drain. I'd put it there anyway with the panacea+miracle. I'm not sure what difference the regen bonus is making with 2 numi pieces in, i assumed it was just there because you wanted the heal piece in. If your running barrier with 30% ranged def then yes you'll need to keep it over ageless. I slotted my life drain with 3 thunderstrikes acc/dmg, acc/dmg/end, dmg/end, the theft proc, 2 preventetives, absorb proc and heal. But i run with 40% ranged and barrier and needed the ranged def bonus and the s/l resists to go with my epic soul shield.
  23. What destiny are you using? Only things i can think of are a theft of essence proc in life drain/an end mod in stamina/recovery serums/ageless- but i don't see where you'd get the slots from. Are you just skipping dark grasp entirely in your rotation? , the ascendancy proc will stack 2-3 times easily in that.
  24. With a little fiddling you could hit 45% ranged quite easily. Don't bother with the OF in gremlins, if they both use a kb on a target at the same time or the same time as a teammate, that target is getting kb'd, knockback to knockdown enhances do not work on them. Easily ranked as the least helpful/most annoying pets in game. With piddly damage to go along with that. ELEC PSI FIRE - Dominator (Electric Control - Psionic Assault).mbd
