how do you play Plant/Psi post patch?

[Greyhame]

Before patch it was seeds-drain-shockwave-cleanup-repeat.  Now seeds is less effective, tree and sleep more effective. Do you alternate?  Combine different powers?  Curious about strategies...

I've been using Spirit Tree as my opener, then using Seeds after the foes gather around it. Seeds has the same magnitude and target cap as before but a shorter duration so it may need to be refreshed if a fight goes on longer. The Adaptive Recharge allows it to be used effectively on small numbers of foes and have it come back quickly.

 

Carrion Creepers now procs less frequently, caused me to change to more traditional slotting. Now that I slot more recharge, it allows me to have it up all the time. The addition of the deep sleep mechanic to Spore Burst is useful, but I find that sleep still doesn't play well with Carrion Creepers. I use Spore Burst primarily to deal with adds or when a second spawn aggros. The new pulsing mechanic added to Vines (after the initial hold) makes it a useful tool for area control/denial. It's situational, but previously it wasn't in my build at all.
