* Aid self = not much usefull for a /elec brute, coz /elec is based in resistance, not in defense, and u will need to stop the battle, go away from it, heal urself and go back... I dont think it is usefull for the brute concept...

[/ QUOTE ]Nonsense, the interrupt time is short enough to work just fine with resistance set, especially with few slots.

With SO's and hasten you'll be decent, once you get to 30 and have 6-slotted IH in addition to the other powers is when you'll really become powerful.

[ QUOTE ]

TBH I would skip fly and take SS and hover for travel and get in with the melee attacks as much as poss-ib-le.

[/ QUOTE ]As would I, fly is there because the OP had fly as a travel power.

Icicles is there, at L30.

Personally though, I'd much prefer CE for herding, since it affects mobs instantly instead of being tick-based.

You don't need 3 res in MoG, it caps with one.

You do not want to slot slow in CE, it slows down herding.

Psiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!

Just ported my TA/Psi def on test...

Oh. My. World.

There is now not ONE good reason for anyone not to pick psi when making a defender.

Arctic air is good in pvp, but hurricane is better and the two don't work well together, as the 'cane will push them out of the AA. They both cost painfull amounts of endurance, and endurance management is the biggest problem for ice/storm in PVP, in my experience. In fact, slot for end reducers wherever you can.

[/ QUOTE ]

Most people have knockback resistance in PvP (they'd better!) so that isnt that much of an issue

[/ QUOTE ]KB, yes, but not repel

Nearly perfect, just needs "Keep moving, do not wait for the team" added

TD, 3 ToHit buff, 1 End, maybe 2 end.
Attacks, for sensible PvP no acc, just 3 dam and then rech/end/range/sec. effects as you feel necessary.

I've never had a Dom with hasten, so it really does boost its recharge speed, even though Domination is an unslottable (with recharge red.) inherent power?


[/ QUOTE ]+rech boost the recharge rate of every power you have, whether accolade, temporary, inheret, or wahtever.

[ QUOTE ]
....um, how was the poster incorrect if he/she said exactly what you did (sans the numbers)....

[/ QUOTE ]He/She said those powers have very good accuracy, when they in fact have normal or lower accuracy.

So there's a max HP cap... That explains why frostwork is nearly useless on some AT's...

[ QUOTE ]
you try typing and travelling with any of the others

[/ QUOTE ]I have, and I can

[ QUOTE ]
Drop the 'Heal' in Hibernate MaX.

Why bother with speed when it makes you Invunerable anyway?

[/ QUOTE ]Because in some situations you may want to get back into the fight fast

[ QUOTE ]
It's also a bit of a must for some badge collecting.

[/ QUOTE ]TP gets you anywhere fly does, but faster.

Fact is, fly is the slowest travel power, and while it may be easy to use, the others are far more effective.

[ QUOTE ]

I am really against one power that doms can get, and that is the snipe. What is the point of a snipe for doms? I feel that this should be replaced with something more useful, like build up.

[/ QUOTE ]What's the point? You have holds, so you can fire off snipe very safely most of the time, and it does nice damage.

[ QUOTE ]

I thought Defenders were Controller levelled HPs too, but they could be Blaster.

[/ QUOTE ]Defenders, controllers and blasters had the same HP, but blaster HP was increased in I5.

really bad accuracy

[/ QUOTE ]The acc penalty is the same as all other AoE controls.

[/ QUOTE ]

uh? actually, powers like mass hypnosys, Terrify or every other imm/sleep/fear aoe power have a very good accuracy...
only hold aoe powers use to miss a lot

[/ QUOTE ]Incorrect. The besic accuracy modifier is 1, nearly all AoE control powers are either 0,8 or 0,9. In the case of mind, Mass hypno (like other AoE sleeps) is 1, Terrify is 0,9, and total dom and mass confuse are 0,8.

unstoppable seems slotted fine imo, i like maxing res especially with -res powers out there.


[/ QUOTE ]1 DamRes in unstop will put you enough over the cap that it'd require huge amount of debuffs to drop you below it, since resistance resists resistance debuffs.
