Demons / Pain - Whippit whippit good

[Cyrickain13]

OK guys, New lvl 50 here trying to figure out this mids and build. This is what I got so far. Looking for a good PVE Build. Let me know what you got.

 

Not sure if where I should put in the MM Superior IO's and what I should put in the pets. (kind of a blank slate here)

When I get off work ill take a look, I had a demon/pain back on live and recently my demon/cold AV/GM killer.

 Here's the demon/pain I just recently got to 50 with, she was a very fun to play and more survivable than I though she'd be.

How is the endurance on it.. I can see your just below the 2 point variance..  I am thinking Cardiac would help it over Agility for Endurance but eating blues inspirations helps.. 

 So just wondering how active are you with the build. I know with Masterminds overall you can't go full tilt as you can with other Archtypes due to endurance and this being so close to the minimum requirements make me curious.

     How so? As most of it came from leveling it up and testing with other aspects were for theme fit. Not saying it wasn't influenced by something I may have seen but don't really remember.......then again I has been hit in the head alot and my memory is not what it once was but I digress. As for the endurance question, she does fine and I attack fairly often

Actually, on HC at least, you kinda CAN as long as you don’t mind a little “cheating” via liberal use of Survival Amplifier, Base Empowerment and Recovery Serum.  It’s quite easy on HC to get Endurance under control.  Purists often look down on such niceties but I’m all about QOL and nothing makes an attack-heavy/high +RECHARGE MM shine like the HC QOL +END buffs.

 

I have soooooo many, many Survival Amplifiers from my various “* Pack” purchases I have actually started crafting entire builds around them.  Considering how extreme the buffs are you can do some crazy high +Damage or +Def builds considering you don’t really have to worry about your +END bonuses.

I need to look these up.. 

Honestly was not aware of them. 

 

[Tattooist]

This build is pretty solid, my character just relaxes with their aura of heals and regeneration and my demons do all the work!

I must be doing something wrong, I don't use Cardio or temp buffs or things, and I don't have endurance woes on, even when spamming abilities. My build are typical IO builds. 🤫🤫

Do you take and use your primary attacks?  Do you take and use pool attacks?

 

I have no endurance issues on my MM's if I'm basically letting my pets do all my DPS.  You get penalized in this game as an MM for trying to "outperform" DPS by adding in your own on top of what the henchmen dish out.  There's design reasons for this and I've come to accept them to keep the MM class from getting to OP status.  Huge native +RES, achievable softcap +DEF and very achievable high +RECH.  Throw attacks in there (even if we didn't have an END penalty for them) even WITH the class modifier dampening and you will take some MM builds and push them right into tank mage territory.

 

But if your primary playstyle is as a support player to your henchmen, which is a -VALID- playstyle, then yeah, I don't have END issues either.

 

Play the class to the exploitable fullest....and yes, I most certainly -DO- have END issues that are seldom fixed until Destiny>Ageless T4 comes along, even with temp buffs.  I can play the game just fine, it's just slow and seldom at +4/x8 from levels 38-50 until I get my END worked out.

[Force Redux]

Not a judgment on you, just wondering why I'm not having end issues. 

I generally take one attack from the primary, and I never use pool attacks. I will use Blackstaff, and Epic attacks, however. Usually I'm busy buffing/debuffing to fit in full attack chains, though on my Beast/Time and Best/Nature I have all three attacks and use them frequently to stack Pack Mentality. Of course, Time and Nature both have End recovery tools...

 

My Demon/Dark has two whip attacks, black staff, and Epic Tendrils, plus holds, etc. Same sitch with my Bots/FF... Two rifle attacks, nemesis staff, force bolts, plus electricity epic immobilize, etc. Neither have End recovery powers.

 

Unless I'm purposefully being lazy, I'm using powers, but perhaps the key is I'm not fitting in overly high end use MM primary attack powers in tight attack chains? I weave primary attacks in between my other powers.
