Symphony / Dark - Anyone got a good endgame build?


Mr. Apocalypse

Recommended Posts

I have a Symphony/Dark that I PL'd to 50 after playing it enhancement free to level 20 and just picking random powers.

I really have not slow played either symphony control, or Dark assault past about level 20, so I really don't know what the best powers to take from each set or slotting strategies that should be used or what incarnate powers to best compliment these sets?

 

I am looking for a solid build to do solo content through Oroborous.. and maybe once I get fully accustomed to how it plays do some incarnate trials, etc.

 

I have plenty of Inf. so cost is no object.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've always been a fan of the mentality to teach a man to fish rather than to give a man a fish.

 

I'd suggest taking a stab at a build yourself, noting your goals for it, posting the build so that the community can take a look over it and give you feedback.

 

Incidentally I just made a symphony/dark/ice build last night spur of the moment while trying to get my baby to fall asleep. My focus was permadom, S&L Def non incarnate softcap, capped HP, with a couple proc ladden rain powers. Your goals may be different.

If you mean Sleet & Ice Storm youll be better off putting the procs elsewhere I'm afraid. Rains count as pseudopets with toggles on so the recharge for calculating the proc rate is fixed at 10 seconds. Coupled with the large AoE that gives you a low proc rate (I parsed it out for Freezing Rain, running x8 radios solo to test, and it was blargh).
