smnolimits42 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Ok, what to play next. No more Empaths, Kinetics, Buffing. So what does that leave me with ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyonico Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Trick Arrow... Your only "buff" is your t9, which is also a control/debuff. What this team needs is more Defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panache Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 (edited) Poison without the heal, antidote or rez; all you *do* is debuff! Edited January 8 by Panache 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But causing your allies to puke their guts out 90 seconds post rez is absolutely an obligatory part of playing a poison defender. Storm, TA, and Poison all make for excellent Offenders. 3 1 Currently on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panache Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I will also third TA, it’s amazeballs now. I really wish there was a set just like it but wasn’t bow-themed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done multiple Earth/Storm (as well as other /Storm). A very potent combo of hard controls from Earth and the raw damage power of Storm. Great control from start thru endgame. Edit: Not a bad Defender either 🤪 ooopsy. What happens when you go from the Controller forums to Defender forums on a sleep deprived brain Edit 2: And I don't care what anyone says Storm/Storm is a great deal of fun even solo especially once Storm Summoning comes into its own and even if not the mostist meta pairing Edit 3: And as @Psyonicosays TA is a very nasty debuffer ... TA/Storm Blast is also a good deal of fun. Edited January 9 by Doomguide2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ringo Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Poison/Elec - be a Sapper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeraphimKensai Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I have at this point paired poison with: Rad blast - works well, seems thematic, further debuffs defense Elec blast - works great with poison trap/weaken at sapping targets, short circuit is a great proc power Fire blast - works really well at killing things Elec control - I liked elec blast so much I made it as a troller and it really can shut down a full team worth of NPCs with all the tools at its disposal. Plant control - pretty much same as elec control but more damage, and no sapping. It's hard to go wrong with poison. It's a great set, but aside of playing it on a mastermind, it's meant to be played in melee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadShinobi Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I like Poison/Rad/Dark. Venomous Gas/Oppressive Gloom/Soul Drain/Irradiate all lend well to thriving in melee. Oppressive Gloom stuns all minions and stacks with Cosmic Burst to 1 shot stun bosses. You don't need to slot anything for accuracy using soul drain/tactics/kismet/vigor/setbonuses/defense debuffs so you can shove a crazy number of damage and utility procs into the build. Poison/Fire is very strong too or you can go for Dark or Water Blast to have a self heal, but I've never found it a necessary to make poison work. 1 Currently on fire.

Since all of dark's AoE is cones (except black star) how do you handle being in melee for venomous gas?

BazookaTwo Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 If you can't deal with cones, that's a personal problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played Kin/Dark and wasn't crazy about it for this reason. Kin really likes melee and /Dark really likes range, so you end up hopping around a lot. Too busy for me. I wonder if TA/Dark would be good though, since they both love range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
