tjknight Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Right now I'm completely obsessed with playing Masterminds! I realize however that I've never played the storm secondary. I'm assuming Storm Summoning pairs best with ranged pet sets like Bots, Thugs, or Mercs? My guess is that Bots/Storm is the front runner here, due to their self-healing and shields. Any other ideas, suggestions, or thoughts on this topic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biostem Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 The update to mercenaries is quite good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikerFox Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 I play a Merc/Storm and it was good even before the changes. Spectacular after i27.5. But I think Necro/Storm will be phenomenal if endurance can be managed. There's a lot of mitigation with continuous knockdown. Pets are pretty sturdy with higher HP, regen and a self heal. A couple FF procs to get Soul Extraction, Tornado, Freezing Rain and Lightning Storm up faster. But like I said, endurance will be rough especially if using MM attacks for the specters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crysis Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Demon/Storm and Thug/Storm still top of the heap. Demon/Cold is a close second. Since /Storm is all about more DPS, you want to pair it with top level DPS henchmen. I love my Mercs/Cold and Mercs/Storm and Bots/Storm and Necro/Storm and...and...and....but always come back to either Demons/Storm or Thugs/Storm for raw DPS output. Play what you like though....pretty much any MM combo does well with /Storm since it is, after all, mostly just more DPS. Skip/respec out of hurricane and focus on Freezing Rain, Steamy Mist, Tornado and Lightning Storm. Throw in lots of FF+Rech procs and get your recharge way up over 200% easily. Take every +END temp power you can because you'll be thirsty. And go to town. Play -OFFENSIVELY- which is why you can ignore Hurricane and Snowstorm. Why herd them up when you can just take them out in half the time? Have fun! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
