Ill/Sonic build with a question on ATO bonuses


Apocohotep

Recommended Posts

Built in MIDS and I'm about to take it out for a spin. I wanted to focus on recharge as well as good controls outside of Domination until it's permanent. I don't know much of how the ATO bonuses work though, would frankenslotting as I have apply the 3% to hold bonuses and other control effects across all my powers? Thanks in advance 🙂

------------

44% def soft cap proc out earsplitter and Def wave. You can take this as a template and add more procs. Rule of thumb 44% def is great 33% is livable with purps. Shoot for one or the other adding as many proc to your rotation. ill/Sonic for me was very fun leveling. Still fun and animations make it a fun play. IMO  ill/Psi is the pinical of illusion because AV -reg sap but Sonic gives big numbers and is a lot more fun to play.

 

So if your trying to go full control you have to know what content your building for. Some content people build for are solo AV builds that run long duration confuses. You might be able to pull off a hold build with a long duration, would be worth a fun test if echo and earsplitter proc. But in most content the long duration on hold over the damage in a big damage power is not worth the sacrafice in damage. Now for most content everything dies so fast magnitute of the holds  matter more you need 4 to 6mags of hold consistantly this imo is more import than duration in normal content situations. In the end most content in this game is pretty chill and anyhing works just beaware with lack of damage , AV regen becomes your biggest weakness.
