Earth/Fire is a good combo...a bit dangerous though. Once you get the Fire APP's everything melts.

Fire/thorn is cool...but fire always make me nervous due to it's lack to control mobs as well as the other sets.

Thank Heavens that this thread is still thriving.

I'm weird. Blazing Arrow Tickled my fancy wayyyy before ROA.

Plant Control-Seeds of Confusion and Carrion Creepers made Plant control my favorite set for controllers and dominators.

Blaze also did it for me lol.

Blizzard...which should be renamed as RAAAPPPEEE.

There's more but I will give others a chance.

I like the last build but I must ask...why did you guys go with Hot feet? For the extra dmg and the fear? I normally skip it due to the end drain. To each their own though.

Oh! Vines was skipped?! That will not do! lol

Def the sleep will be broken with Mortar but that's ok. The sleep is good for going in there and toe-bombing or throwing down poison trap safely. The cone isn't bad if you can get them to stay in one spot...that's when caltrops comes in handy. Also I have Mortar and Poison Trap slotted for extra hold so most of the time stuff stays put!

Also it's nice to see the dmg increase as the sonic attacks stack.

I have a Traps/AR and a Thugs/Traps so I think I can add a little input.

I would go with DP it's great for PbaoE dmg and great for AOE dmg. You'll get them before they can run away from your traps.

Sonic would be great for mowing down mobs...also I would think it would be super safe with it's sleep. Also Sonic for defenders is the most damage you can get no?

I would drop Melt Armor. It's a cool power but it has a small radius and An Embrace of Fire buffed Fireball and RoF makes Melt Armor look silly.

My mids might be borked but I'm reading that if I use EoF and then hit the two powers I am going to deal 450+ dmg to a spawn...and that's unslotted!

I love my doms! Stalkers and Doms brought me to the dark side! I have a Ice/Psi and a Earth/Fire dom that will be a BEAST once they get their APP's. My Plant/Fire is just sick. Sometimes with him I have to chill b/c I tend to out do the Brutes, Scrappers and Tanks on the Team.

Just to let you guys know...I made a lvl 50 Elec/Ice/Ice Dom (don't ask) and let me tell you...the dude was a complete Beast! It was odd though I felt like a controller...more than a dom but things died so I had no worries ^_^.

The end drain, the sleep, the confuse such a fun active combo.

Do you guys find yourselves converting others to doms once they see you in action? It's great!

Recharge!

My Crabbie is a little Spidermind Blaster.

I 5 slot Seeds with The Contagious Confusion or whatever it's called. Cheap purple sets make me smile .

...I have never been a dooooom person but I would be lying if I didn't say I'm worried. WTF?! I wish NCSoft would give us insight what is in store for us, the game and the company in the near future. My love and Thanks go out to all who are leaving!

I agree and thanks Steel! I typed up my response with a throbbing headache at around 3 am. I was dying lol.

Ice Armor is very different from Energy Aura...Sadly though I'm not a number person at all.

Think of Energy Aura as Electric Armor mixed with Ice Armor lol.

Energy on paper looks like it would work very well due to it's defense and a bit of resistance stacking to provide protection along with its PBAoE heal. It also does well at taking care of end issues due to Conserve Power and Energy drain but in battles it all falls flat. I can't speak for the set entirely due to me only getting to try it out when I played one of my friends lvl 50 but in battle I ran into all types of issues like keeping the aggro on me, scaling defense with no Backup 'cept for Overload, Heal only effecting when surrounded by a big mob.

I'm well versed with Electric Armor though! lol

Ice focuses on defense, spamming Energy Absorption, using icicles and Chilling Embrace to slow down incoming heat and the trust ole hoarfrost. Also if thinks get risky you cna always hit Hibernate. Ice has many weaknesses as well but I think it outshines EA by far.

Sorry for the rambling but it's the best comparison I can produce! Might need another head in her to swoop down and help me out lol.

I know what builds I would roll. A Fire/Ice, Stone/Ice, Ice/Shield....I think the one that would excite me the most would be Claws/Ice...can you imagine that? Huge Mob: Energy Absorption, With Icicles running at full fury while you do the Spin attack? *twitch*

Chrome and Fusion...if only you two heard what KM sounded like originally...

It was SO much better. IT could of been played off as Energy, Wind or water with it's sound effects. the only issue it had was the impact...it was very weak. That in my opinion is a quick tweak...yet they went ahead and redid the whole sound of the set 'cept for 1 power.

Quick! Someone bound his legs to his chair so he can't leave the Studio!

I'm in. I just had to re-do the patch several times...then I rebooted my computer and everything now is right as rain.

Same issue here. I'm going to try to reboot again and see what happens.
