oedipus_tex Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 So I finally have a Plant/Kin who is approaching level 50. Threw this build together quickly. I'm looking for a mid-priced, reasonable build for this toon that avoids excessive use of Purples. That said, I've not leveled either Plant or Kin in ages. How is this looking?

Coyote Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Pretty decent. My suggestions: 1: Transference is so strong in End regain that you don't need to add more slotting into it for End recovery... if you're trying to end-drain with it, I question that plan. Lt and lower mobs are going to be mass confused anyhow. You'll Hold a boss quicker than you Drain it. And once you're 50 and have Contagious Confusion proc in Seeds, the bosses are going to be Confused at the start of a fight, giving you the time to Hold them. So I don't see End drain as useful, and End recovery is already very high, so I would just go with a single Accuracy in it and be done. 2: Transfusion is overslotted, IMO, and I don't see the stat bonuses as worth the extra slots. I would probably use 2 slots in it for Accuracy/Heal, and 1 slot for Theft of Essence. This ToE IO will then allow you to take out a slot from Stamina. 3: As I understand, Force Feedback's proc in Carrior Creepers won't help you after the initial cast. And I don't think it's worth keeping on a power that gets cast about every 2 minutes... once a minute would be fine, that's equivalent to an LotG. But every two minutes is not worth as much as adding more slotting into the power. 4: This is your call, but personally while I like the Def bonuses from Thunderstrike, I always put Achilles Heel in Poisonous Ray. With a 90% chance to activate, if you're firing it every 10 seconds (and you can), it can add -18% Res debuffing to a single target, which is very nice for Kinetics since it doesn't inherently have -Res. That basically doubles the Res debuff from Poisonous Ray, and I think that's worth the loss of Defense. I would make up for it by 6-slotting Expedient Reinforcement into Tarantula even if it does increase the downtime. 5: I think that Fulcrum Shift only needs a single Accuracy. 6: With all of the extra slots pulled out, you can add a 3rd slot to Tough and get another 3% global defense. And then I think you may stil have more slots, and I would put them into a Defense power and get the +Resist IOs. 1

I implemented some of your suggestions. I also dropped Spirit Tree for Increase Density, which I can drop a +3% Defense IO in. Overall S/L Defense now slightly exceeds the Softcap, while Ranged hits ~35%, capped with one Purple inspiration.
