Pyro - thoughts on great secondaries?

I rolled with Trick arrow.  I can't be bothered with healing. 😉

Flash bang, Glittering Column and as they gather, glue them in place. Slap down Brilliant Barrage and by that time the fight is pretty much over once everyone moves in.

I ended up not taking many of the trick arrow powers. Just Flash, Glue, Poison and Oil Slick. You don't really NEED that many.

 

It is frantically fun running a Yin at +4 this way.

@BRADICAL curious what kind of theme you came up with? 🙂

 

Thanks for your feedback! 

 

Any others want to share?

I just went with the theme of a really sweaty man that likes to play with fireworks.

I'm running a pyro/traps troller, in the low 20s currently but lots of fun. Controllers are my home AT so part of the reason I took traps was to not repeat sets among my large roster of controllers (so far, only repeated DA but it's so good can you blame me).

Conceptually, she's an aged up version of my tech genius FF/sonic defender. Her light tech and enhancements scientifically altered her physiology over prolonged use, so now she's science origin and has light powers without needing her previous tech, plus some new inventions etc. she's developed.

 

Pyro's -tohit + seeker drones -tohit + FF generator = good net defense, which allows for laying down traps safely. She has plenty of controls across the two sets and is well-equipped for soloing; I'm not worried about being too slow for teams, I plan to use trip mine and poison trap sparingly to keep pace, will still have a big bag of tricks to contribute even without those in active rotation. Excited to get access to the two bombs for more gadgety goodness.
