Suggested Fixes for Electric Control on Dominators

[oedipus_tex]

Electric Control relies on pseudo pets for many of its powers. This has led to it not benefitting from Domination mode in its key mezzes like most other Control sets do. 

 

 

1. Synaptic Overload Should Dominate Sub-Targets

Current Behavior: Synaptic Overload Dominates the first target but not subsequent target.

 

Desired Behavior: Synaptic Overload should Dominate all targets in the chain.

 

Technical Background: This power is a "chain" mezz that summons psuedo pets to spread a Confusion effect to subsequent enemies. Currently both Controller and Dominator use the same pseudo pets. The pet should either be updated or replaced in Domination mode so that subsequent enemies are Dominated.

 

 

 

2. Static Field Should Dominate on the First Pulse

Current Behavior: Static Field behaves identically to the Controller power, and behaves the same in or out of Domination.

 

Desired Behavior: Add a Mag 3 Sleep for ~6 seconds, 20ft radius, on first pulse, with the "Domination!" splashup text.

 

Technical Background: This power is a pulsing psuedo pet that pulses a short duration sleep. The suggestion is to add an additional Mag 3 Sleep on the first pulse. This would allow the instant Sleeping of bosses. (Note this power can already Sleep bosses because it stacks with itself. The suggestion is just to make the first pulse have better reaction time. The effect is still ruined if the enemy takes damage or is knocked down. The main benefit is distinguishing Controller and Dominator Electric Control).

SynOverload..I think it also should have a really high BaseAcc. If you miss that first hit..it does nothing at all, compared to SoC/MC, where a single miss wont 'waste' the power.
