Any all controller team would rock but I think a team of rads is a waste 6 rads and a sonic and a bubbler would be much better having mez protection, then some +def and +res to go with all the -acc and -dam but any all controller team would be awesome.

Defence is when you avoid the damage by them missing. Resistance is when the damage taken gets reduced.

MA/SR is good because theres no drawing time when you practise brawler (mes protection which causes you to put your sword away) and does slighty more damage as well as having stuns for damage mitergation.

Kat/SR is good because you get divine avalanche which stacks with your melee defence making you pretty much unhittable in melee. Katana also has more AoEs than MA but is slighty more end heavy.

Either combo is great just a question of personally preference

Although DS does slightly more damage

Surely MoG would be a waste in PvP? Spoke to many people about using MoG and it is absolutley rubbish in PvP!, especially against toxic or psionics! so using in PvP would guarantee debt 100%.

[/ QUOTE ]

MoG is a good power when used to the right situations - its awesome against Kinetics controllers for example. Also there was nothing else I could pick that would be better

I love playing all my toons in pvp except my PB

Thanks guys only 1 more until my cape

P.S. Playing football is very hard with a birthday hangover

Here are the two ways I would build a pvp Kat/Regen:

The difference is in team pvp you will wont to act as a secondary tanker so the ST taunt is very useful and in team pvp you will wont to get fliers out the air Whereas in solo body mastery is more useful as conserve power is great against kins or ele/ blasters and FA incase of -acc debuffs

I love my Ice/Kinetics corruptor the only villain I've managed to get to 50

From Ice make sure you take Ice bolt, Ice blast, and Bitter Ice Blast (unskippable powers) then I recommend taking Aim, Freeze Ray and Blizzard (nothing in the game feels as good when you fulcrum a nice big mob of freaks BLizzard and you kill them twice as they rez ^^).

From Kinetics I would take all the powers apart from Repel then also skip IR if you take acrobatics.

You definately want Stamina ASAP then the rest of pools are up to you

This is my current build on live works great in pvp and pve

Generally like the build and very much as I would build one myself but a few things I dont agree with?

Why the end reds in your attacks and superjump? seeing you have both transference and power sink end shouldnt be a problem at all?

Not much point in taking health on a squishy as the return is neglible....you'll get much more mileage from the hurdle/swift combo.

Wouldn't recommend defense buffs in CJ....go with jump enhancements here instead

Other than that...nice build

Just so that I won't run out of end in 4 seconds in sirens

Do multiple applications of Grant Invis stack from different people?

Short Circuit will not drain an even level minion completely with 3 +3 SO EndMod on a Blaster.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have to say I was surprised that it didn't, in fact I thought you were wrong although I've just been and tested it properly and it definitely doesn't (leaves 25 end with +3 enhancements on an even level minion). In practicality by the time it's used they're drained though in normal play, I had to work quite hard on an elec/elec to set up a situation where I was starting attacking them with SC when they were on full endurance. Either they've attacked while the animation is running and they're drained, or you've held them, and all the elec holds do varying degrees of endurance drain. They might manage a brawl, but probably not and nothing more. A single mele attack will totally zero it (of course on an even level minion a single attack will probably kill them as well after short circuit - draining even level minions is a complete waste of time).

Looks like Ele/Nrg out drains Ele/Ele to me

Definately get OG great power. I Would imagine the CoF -acc would stack quite nicely with parry making you pretty much unhittable in melee, not sure how good this would be in practise though

[ QUOTE ]
Stealth supresses when you start the short circuit animation nowadays, has done for about 18 months in fact, and it's a long animation. The days of draining something before it sees you are long gone.

[/ QUOTE ]

Means that when they see you you're starting to drain them whereas without they can attack you before you start - this only works with ele/nrg where you can drain all their end at once.

[ QUOTE ]
When considering combining Power Boost with either Short Circuit, or the stuns/holds available in Elec/Eng, I'd probably go with the holds and stuns in a lot of situations rather than really being a slave to end drain for the sake of it. It's an all or nothing thing, fantastic when you can pull it off, but when you can't really pull it off, it's better to take another option.

[/ QUOTE ]

End drain gives you a kind of AoE mez as opposed to ST from the holds and stuns.

fair point on transference, i have it on my kin/dark defender and it is quite lovely, allthough it can miss, and the longer i can go on before having to use it the better


[/ QUOTE ]
Which is why a good kin tries to fit in Tactics (but that's another story...). In any case, I also play a kin defender and they play quite differently actually.

[/ QUOTE ]

Dammit Okt!! I've told you there's no room!!!

I don't miss much even fighting on Invincible...just slot 2 acc in every power and you're fine for the most part.

That's cause you're stubborn and can't live without your Acro Archy

Grats mate nice to see players proving Doms arent gimped (you wouldnt have got it as a bug or farmed it and then posted )

I love kinetics but never played it on a defender

[ QUOTE ]
Should have said it was for PvE play only sorry. Reading other posts for ideas i think i'll give Elec/Energy a go. I've tried fire and ice in other guises on tanks and trollers but Energy is new to me.

[/ QUOTE ]

Elec/Energy is an awesome combo - short circuit + power boost completely drains the end and stops them recovering end for a while meaning they cannot attack you more than once Works best with either Super speed or Stealth so by the time they've noticed you they have no end and definately get Aim + build up ASAP.

You cant drop Challenge without dropping the Fears

Why?

Thanks again, btw

[/ QUOTE ]

Presence pool consists of:

Single target Taunt
AoE Taunt
ST Fear
AoE Fear

to get the 3rd power you need either power 1 or power 2 and to get the 4th you need two of powers 1, 2 and 3.

Like stamina where you need 2 of Swift, Hurdle and Health to get it

How come Hover and Acrobatics? Dont they do the same thing . . . and Hot feet is lots better than Bonfire actually does more damage than imps
