So this is kind of what I was going for in my Thugs/Poison.

Poison Trap you want to lace with a ton of Proc Damage.  It becomes a nuke.  Also I went with Leviathan mastery for thematic reasons.  But Knockout Blow is good, and a place you can put a + Recharge into.

I also went with Burnout so I can get double Gang War for really tough fights.  And Gang war is where you usually put most of your Def/Res auras.

But Thugs/Poison is good you can play around a lot with it and not really gimp yourself.

Does the def/res procs carry over to the pets all the time if its in gang war?

Didn't think about burnout good one!

I tend to not do any fisticuffs with my mastermind, I'm the Blofeld type of villain I sit and pet my cat, make decisions and let the pets sully their nails.

 

I'll pull up on Mids when I get home thanks!

Yes.  That is why Necro/Demon/Thugs are the most popular to use.  You can dump all the auras into the lv 18 power (Soul Extraction/Hell on Earth/Gang War) and they'll work even if the power isn't active.

 

With KO blow I just use it for the + Recharge.  You can also use Bile Spray to get to Shark Skin.  Or go with Mace Mastery for the Scorpion Shield and Power Boost.  I went more for a thematic approach.
