Creating a Themed Robot set.

[ItsDecoy]

Hello all, trying to come up with a fun theme for a Robot MM but I am struggling with picking a secondary. Right now it is between these 3:

 

1. Electrical Affinity

2. Radiation Emission

3. Sonic Resonance. 

 

The character with by Tech origin and I love solo play so I would like to be able to take on some AV's and GM's but I also enjoy some team play every now and again. Overall, I'm looking for the set that is most fun to play and that will keep me involved in the action a bit. Don't really like sitting back and watching the pets to all the work. 

 

Any suggestions and fun theme ideas would be appreciated .

None of the choices you're thinking about are bad ones. 

 

- Electric Affinity : This would provide nice +resist to your pets (Faraday Cage) which would layer nicely with your protector bots defense shields, and maintenance drone healing. You would have all the team/self buffs you need for most content. A well rounded set that goes well with all the MM primaries. 

 

- Radiation Emission: I'm going to buck popular consensus and say that "I like rad on MM's". Radiation Infection -to hit will help your pets defensively.  Accelerate Metabolism won't affect your pets recharge rate, but the mez resistance, +damage, +recovery, and +movement speed  buffs will.  The heal is solid and you get a variety of other tools including crowd control. Rad isn't a bad choice IMHO. 

 

- Sonic Resonance:  This grant a large amount of damage resistance to you and your pets.  Disruption Field can be cast on a pet, and is nice -resistance debuff.  Since you have maitenance drone + Protector Bots you don't need to worry about the lack of an AoE heal in this set so much. Your bots will be very tanky. If you take bot attacks  you will be able to debuff regen and resistance significantly. 

 

Again no real bad choices here but as always YMMV
