Sulhythal Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 What is everyone's favorite pairing with Plant? Not just for effectiveness (but that's also fun) but just for sheer entertainment value on top of effectiveness? I have a Plant/Rad I haven't played since I took a break, and am eyeing a new one to add to the garden. Currently thinking /Storm, but that's just 'cause I love storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadShinobi Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Plant/Poison/Earth. Envenom makes your confusion and proc based damage go off the wall. 3 Currently on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Warpact Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 /Kin, nothing like SB on everything and great rech, dmg boost, end, its fun. I like to SB people as they are running up to a mob nothing like a "oops " moment when they run into the middle of the baddies lol. https://www.twitch.tv/boomie373 The Revenants twitch channel, come watch us face plant, talk smack, and attempt to be world class villains.

Frosticus Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Second vote for plant/poison/earth. Synergy is great Earth/Psi Dom - AV killer Crazy Controllers - 2021 edition - Illusion/Cold Poison - a guide to the most deadly poisons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Funny, I'm also on the Plant/Poison/Earth wagon. Though Plant/Kin/Cold is a good option also... Frost Breath does obscene damage maxed out with procs and Fulcrum Shift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dahle Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 You are playing Plant... Everything is fun 🙂 But I think Poison is a great Debuff set that brings a lot to the table and make it even more fun. Personally I play Plant/Dark. But that is because I find /Dark to just be a spectacular and engaging set. 1 I play where my toons are... and they are everywhere. But Everlasting is my current main home. Come on by my base GOLD-11404. And, yes, most of my toons start Gold Side (Bold Side)! If you want to make a fortune of Inf in City of Heroes, watch my guide on the Auction House.Or come on by and visit my Discord. I run my theme groups there and chat with Twitch viewers in voice there. And lastly, come see my on Twitch. City of Heroes is my main game!

Sulhythal Posted February 25, 2021 Author Share Posted February 25, 2021 Just made me realize, I don't think I've ever played Poison. I'll have to give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PainX Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 i like my plant/storm/stone but i would be lying if i said it will be a nice leveling experience it was me gathering any and every end buff i could P2W arena mutation anything to help now plant is fine storm is just mental and while it has dps it is kind of hardly worth it and yeah second on the plant/dark it is just an amazing secondary well rounded to do just about anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corythia Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I have played several Plant controllers, but the one I keep coming back to and playing well over 200 Vet levels now is Plant/Storm/Ice. It is my farmer because it's really versatile and capable, but also because it's really fun. A pretty close second would be Plant/Nature - not as fast, but very, very survivable. Plant/Time gets honorable mention here. I've only ever played one /Poison char and I have to say I don't like the set at all. I kept waiting for it to get good, because so many people seem to rave over it, but it did not ever get good in my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oedipus_tex Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 If you're willing to go Dominator, there's something really great about Plant paired with Savage Assault. You said you liked Plant/Storm, and you could make something pretty similar with Plant/Savage/Ice, which would give you Sleet and Ice Rain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnifax Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I'll second Plant / Storm. Plant is a great primary for Storm. I'll also second the End issues. Yeah it can be rough. My level 50 builds [Bullitt Time : DP/Kin Corruptor] [Carnifax : Ill/Dark Controller] [Kerriae : Plant/Storm Controller] [Echinoderm : Bio/Spines Tank] [Iron Brew : Mace/Rad Brute] [Snookered : Staff/NRG Brute] [iScream : Ice/Ice Scrapper] [Binman : Savage/Shield Stalker] [Modul-8 : Time/Sonic Defender] [Concussion Blast : Fire/NRG Domi] [Orblivion : Dark/Martial Domi] [Mombie : Necro/Nature MM] [Tempore : Water/Time Blaster] [Thermodynamic Flux : Ice/Fire Blaster] [Carni's Online CombatLog Parser Alpha] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krj12 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Plant/Storm - just because I love the pure chaos and lots of eye candy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hjarki Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 With Fold Space, Plant/Storm really seems the way to go these days - for both sets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage is fun fun fun, but low on mitigation... Plant helps with that, and also eats up very little animation time, freeing you to go all Savage-like on your enemies.

ZorkNemesis Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Plant/Time/Psi is my go-to. I get /Psi isn't the greatest but extra status protection and another LotG spot is great, plus room for another confuse set in WoC. In this case though /Primal might be better for Power Boost alone. As for /Time, I love it for being a jack-of-all-trades support set with potent debuffs, extra controls, strong -regen and a -heal, and a big boost to self-recharge with Chrono Shift. Adding an extra 50% recharge whenever CS is ready is fantastic for keeping the carrion vines growing, plus the frequent -def/-res you can throw out alongside the vines and seeds. Not to mention great team heals, Temporal Selection for your damage dealers (or flytrap), and the colossal defense benefits of Farsight. This was my main setup back on live leading up to the shutdown and the first 50 I brought back when I found Homecoming. Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
