will you tell me what it is?

I don't 100% remember what was supposed to be there because Mid's had a bug with Beta Decay back then where it was missing enhancement options. If I had to guess I think it should've been the Psi Damage proc from the taunt set, but ultimately I never proceeded with that anywhere as it wasn't worth the slot.

 

Is it Axe/Rad you're trying to do as a Scrapper? I do have something more current for that if it is:

I started working on this, but figured I'd ask the expert 😄

What's your opinion on a FF heavy, ranged focus Mind/Energy/Ice dominator?

FF procced energy blasts from the energy assault set to fuel tons of CC, nearly perma sleet, etc.

FAR from a perfected build (e.g. I haven't even slotted terrify lol), threw this together in a couple of minutes just to see how many places I could conveniently proc FF.

First: Ew, Dominators, gross.

 

Okay, moving on 🤣

A few things: with the changes to power selection order, any opening up that selection choice in the Tier 2 at start, there's really no reason to pick a power you just flat out won't ever use. Whirling Hands and Total Focus are your only access to a Disorient power, it might be worth slotting up that Bone Smasher to be a useful trigger against a Minion or Lieutenant to enter Energy Focus mode and then turn around and pop a boosted Power Burst on a Boss, as an example.

 

Side tangent, having the realization that Energy Assault as a ranged set actually brilliantly works well with Symphony, Fire, and Earth control for their Disorient AoE's...

 

Back on track: Since you're going for Sleet and Ice Storm, powers like Mass Hypnosis are probably wasted and going to find themselves shelved as "never used" in your power tray (especially if you team a lot) once you get close enough to start using those epic powers. I'm a huge anti-sleep person, any mez that breaks easy just isn't worth the cast in my opinion. Mass Confusion is really the biggest selling point of Mind Control compared to its counterparts, so I'd lynchpin all choices based off how that power is going to interact with everything else. Given that, tossing any consideration of KD conversion out the window, MC is going to have enemies running all over anyway, they'll just run back if they get KB'd. Terrify will be the "Opener" control, and Total Domination will be the support/backup control around Mass Confusion uses. Last thing is trying to round out survival in the build beyond the mez, so Hoarforst for a spike heal and HP boost, and grabbing Maneuvers/Tactics not only to get the bit more defense, but also fix accuracy and get that crazy needed Confuse and Fear resistance for late game content.

 

This is what I came down to:

You are an absolute build-making monster, thank you ❤️

I may look into symphony actually - as a huge mind control buff symphony has appealed to me, but felt underwhelming on a controller. Maybe it will synergize more smoothly on a dominator.
