Poison / Fire Blast

[WuTang]

One of my boys is a DnD junkie and he and I were talking about dragons the other day and concept was born, a poison dragon!

 

So, after much reading and advice I landed on Defender for the AT. Now it's concept first, functionality second. For instance I read that the cones are not exactly optimal since poison likes the fray, but dragons breathe fire and this one also breathes poison. But what I was wondering is, what does Rain of Fire really bring to the party? I was thinking about dropping it and maybe pick up Char, or something else.

 

Also, with the build as is, I didn't pickup Hasten. Inferno looked to be the only thing that really benefitted from it and the attack/debuff chain looks OK, I think.

 

And lastly, I want Fold Space to work, is 2 +5 acc enough? I have it on another toon and it fails at +4 more than it works, very disappointing.

 

Also, this is a teams only toon.

 

Thanks!

P.S. I originally went Corruptor, cause...Corruptor, but I have only one Defender and the Poison debuffs look better.

hey wu, i have the same combo and have enjoyed it for many years

 

the build looks mostly fine and it would be fun to play, but it massively under-utilises the -res benefits of poison by not tilting towards procs

 

in summary: the huge -res of poison means powers which have long recharges of 15s or more should be loaded up for procs. e.g your build doesn't include the highest damaging power in the poison/fire/fire combo - char! it can be slotted nicely for 5 damage procs and 1 accuracy, it's a very heavy hitter - as is greater fire sword. the build is sub optimal without these slotted up nicely for procs

 

have a look at the bits linked in this post for guidance on procs: 

and for poison in general:
