Electric Dom and Static Field

[Glengoyne559]

Leveling up an Electric Radiation dominator, and most of the few guides I've come across don't include Static Field. I find the renewing sleep patch one of the highlights of the set.   Am I Missing something that more experienced players have long discovered?

In a lot of cases these guides are written from the perspective of level 50. That might be the case and at that point you might not need the sleep.

While levelling up you are absolutely right, the sleep is a highlight of the set.

I love the power and never skip it even if all i throw in is something interesting like the purple chance to placate or a domi/troller proc. And it drains them, which i always a help.

My main is an Electric Dom and I also think it's too good to skip. Personally I 6 slot it with the Dom ATO so every time I drop the patch (which I do often) I got the +30% damage proc.

 

I also open with Static Field, not usually Synaptic Overload. I like to position it so that enemies at the back of the pack run toward it/me and end up in a nicely positioned pack. This is somewhat more feasible on builds with enough Defense to weather any potshots they throw.

 

Note you can have more than one Static Field active at a time and the combined effect sleep bosses and even occasionally Elite Bosses. 

 

 

In this video you can see how often I cast it. I have one macro for dropping it under myself, and a second one for dropping it under a target. I switch back and forth depending on what I need to do.
