Homage to the Joker

[smnolimits43]

I'm thinking of trying a Poison defender, just not sure on the Seconday ??  What do you guys think ???

I have exactly just that when Homecoming first open its door. It was a poison/sonic. The Dev thought my character was too much of an IP risk and recostumed it. 
 

Anyway, poison/sonic is thematic good for what you are asking. It is also functionally very good too, provided that you can survive at close melee range.  Poison/dp is also good. Use Chen rounds.

Pistols with Poison is very good, here's why.

 

• Hold Proc Roulette, Stack a few chances for hold throughout the build. Add the Soul Epic pool for the Soul Hold, and stack a 3 set of Lockdown somewhere to make sure when the hold procs fire it's very worth it. Add Cryo Judgement with the chance to Hold for more silliness.
• I wouldn't slot Suppressive fire heavy on the hold stuff though, you want to fill that attack with like 3 damage procs.
• Power Boost from the Soul Epic Pool
• Force Feedback on Hail of Bullets and Bullet Rain, maybe even in Empty Clips. It adds up

Not a defender but I made a Thugs/Poison mm. I felt that that was pretty jokery. Still working on it.

Here's how I went.

wow a thousand days offline, you must not have enjoyed the character

Thugs/poison just seems like the way to go.  Although spitting the poison seems weird.

I agree a Thugs/Poison MM would be a good Joker homage. I had a female Joker costume during live but couldn't really show it off. Recreated.
