Ground Zero

[Erydanus]

How is [scrapper] ground zero usually slotted? It's such a mishmash of a power. I could slot it as a normal pbaoe with damage, I could load it with damage procs, I could slot it for -defense (not sure that's really valuable but at -15% to begin with it's not so trivial some -def wouldn't make a difference). I'm not going to slot it for heals, of course.

It's actually a pretty high damage PBAoE and its got a 15-foot radius. I slot it for damage. I currently have it slotted with Superior Critical Strikes. Due to the recharge, the proc is guaranteed to go off every time, which I then follow with Atom Smasher (and Fire Ball if anything is still standing).

Yeah I noticed the high recharge so I dropped Analyze Weakness chance of +tohit in the initial slot (I just got the power) since it seemed like an auto-proc. I thought I could use it as an opener to soften everything up a bit since it'll be -15 def for them and +10 to hit for me, then go into my usual chains. (Dual Blades, I have the critical strikes proc in a lynchpin of my attack chains).  Seems like just treating it as a bonus nuke is a good approach.

Question I started a fire/rad gotten him to 21 in mids says 3 second activation for Ground Zero which would be spine burst times which is fine it just lets me know  how I need to play the power on a team vs solo

 

Just wanted to verify that 3 seconds is correct

3.0 is shown in game.  3.168 arcanatime in planner should be accurate.
