Mind/Elec haaalp

[Muppy]

Builds are hard, but I think this might be the hardest one for me to wrangle with. I love this character (who is only about lvl 21) and I want this to work, but I'm falling short on defense while his S/L resists are hard capped. As always, I'm probably doing something wrong here, and I'm assuming that I should probably slap mesmerize in here somewhere for a good attack chain. The reason why I took the pet was mostly for solo purposes (Target it for heals, buffs, etc). I do plan on teaming with him more once he's respec'd at 50, or I can just jump into team only stuff with him asap. I tend to try and go with a build as I level up, but eh. This may be an exception, I guess. ANYWAY! Here's my mess of a build:

I took a stab at it.

 

I have a lot of feedback but basically this: slot attacks as attacks. Some control powers in Mind are actually attacks and should be slotted that way.

 

I highly recommend Power Boost for this combo as almost every power benefits. You'll want to hit Power Boost every time its up.

 

The build below would put you at capped S/L resists with decent Ranged defense that caps during Power Boot periods, which should be up 50% of the time. Meanwhile almost every power lasts longer or is stronger during your boosts except for Faraday Cage. BTW Faraday Cage is mezz protection, so you don't need Indom Will.

[Muppy]

Thank you for the response. Defenses seem a little low but these sets seem pretty dang hard to get those up. I went with psi cause of concept reasons, but this works better. Thanks again!

 

Edit: And I noticed that power boost makes it better. For all the years I've played this game, I never realized that power boost improved so much stuff on your character. I'm going to love this power.

In particular you'll want to hit Power Boost before using your Endurance restoration power. Doing that will greatly increase its strength and restore over half your bar.

 

Your heals and absorbs also benefit.
