sure...where are your defenses coming from?

About 18-19% from Maneuvers/Hover/Weave.

+6% for Gladiator's Armor and Steadfast Protection

Link Minds when available.  90s up 96s down according to Mid's Reborn

Remaining from set bonuses.

Doesn't look like this thread got much traction. Has anyone been happy with a solid Symphony/Sonic dom build through 50?

 

I realize from some threads I found that it may be the worst pairing for a dom, but thematically it begs to be played…so I am. 😉

 

Gotten to the low 20s where I start thinking of finding a good build rather than winging it on SOs and intuition.

 

Little help?

I got a Symphony/Sonic Dominator sitting at 50 atm. To be honest i didnt like Symphony mostly because the Pet, found it weak and irrelevant at the very ending game. So after thinking over and over i decided to re-make a build were i can reinforce the pet issue. This build has a Mu Pet with power sink from patron. Both power sets are end heavy and PS helps a lot to close that gap too. Also this build is softacpped with ranged defense and 182% global recharge bonuss. Is not cheap at all but i believe this is the way to play efficient 2 power sets that got some major holes for a dominator.

 

Here my take:

ok, the above post has not been slotted.  I'm trying to figure out what to keep and what powers to drop ??  right off the bat i'm thinking of dropping the confuse, and sleep powers.  I'm also considering dropping the toggle powers, Deafening Wave and Disruption Aura ???  I think i'll replace those powers with Tough and Weave, not sure where to put Boxing.  Maybe i'll drop Link Minds and keep Indomitable Will and Mind Over Body.  Are Strident Echo and Shockwave worth keeping, might pick up Manuevers and Tactics???  You might know me by now, and that i don't want any purples.  I'm also more of a ranged, hover style player.  Before this becomes a wall of text, thanks in advance.

Hey all,

 

I'm loving my Symphony/Sonic. I do agree that the pet is a bit underwhelming so I just have to pretend it's my dippy understudy following me around for tips. 🙂

 

Here is the build that the husband came up with based on my playstyle...

symph/sonic dom is easily my favorite dom.

I have quite a few and it perfectly falls into that niche of "strong enough so it's not a chore to play but not so easy that it becomes boring.

Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative?

ok got it

sorry haven't been too active lately

2024 has been pretty hectic to say the least

please bear in mind this build is for solo play

stamina is 3 slotted with 3 efficacy adapters and health has panacea and numina procs

only ranged defense is softcapped best paired with fly/hover combat but ymmv

there is no hasten because i cant keep track of too many powers but permadom becomes viable about 25 iirc

anyway enjoy GL out there I hope I get time to play soon 🙂
