hehehe, ill do it, Mighty

In the other hand, NeonPower, it seems a bit overkill to have consume on top to dark consume or power sink (if u finally go to mu)...

Think that u should be gettin a full blue bar each time u hit domination, so that leaves u using ur +end power very few times (dunno ur build).

Peace.

kk, ill see around on friday at that hour... Ill try to send u a tell if u see u... Btw, ill be either playing 'Securiter', or 'DooM-inator'.

Catch u laterz.

cheers.

Well, i went with the mu with my mind/ice, and although colours and graphic/sound is nice, It is just a bit of frustrating... The pet seems he preefer to attack rather than healing (it is like the pet say: Im a corruptor, im not a healer )..

In the other hand, i have gone to Mako with my mind/fire, and Im really impressed with the water spout trick... Yesterday I noticed that it look enemies for me, if u have a 'kill all' mish u can keep him up all time, and he will find ur preys

Resuming, mu is great, but others patrons are too, and all of them have their pros/cons.

Cheers.

Yeah, anathemas have some kind of hold protection that needs 2 holds to lock them... And they can hold u with 1 apply if u arnt in domination...

That is what i hate with gravity, that u can only hold enemies, or lift them (and many other have knock protection)... Until late 20s that u start to have slotted wormhole and u rise in control...

How u can kill them?? Many ways, not sure ur build:

1) inmob the anathema, take range and left the minions come to u, kill minions, and then eat 1 BF and spam the hold between attacks. Dont let them melee u, they hit hard with his sword.

2) Use Dimension Shift, and ull split the group (dont put much accuracy, or u will make intang all of them). This way will make it longer to kill, and bored.

3) Get a team. This is the easier way.

4) Eat 2 purples and rush them... Dominators can rush too, with a good bunch of insps

If u had another primary u could use another powers, but untill u get Wormhole u will be lacking of control... Then, when u get WH and Sing, all the way should be easy

Cheers.

I would like to join u guys, but I would have only 1h30mins to complete it...

If u think we can, count me in with any toon (trying to hit that lvl with my brute SM/WP, he is lvl16 atm)

Hmm, hiya, gratz for almost ur hitting to patrons

If you are worried bout the graphics, we can meet this evening (ill be on almost all evening at @the_defuser) and Ill go with my dominator and show u the mu graphics (so far, got shield, power sink and the pet)...

Actually, one good reason, as Alvan appointed, is that Mu has a pet who heals u if u are in troubles... That is interesting allways...

Im actually lvling another toon, a mind/fire, mainly centered for pvp, and he has gone for Mako, mainly for his 'tonado' power... I think it has lot of utily for pvp, even more than the mu pet... We could discuss it one day...

Well, resuming, if u want a +end power, and good graphics, Mu >> GW. If u want 'other things', maybe BS or Mako could work for u.

Hope it helps, peace.

The icon already blinks, as i said, it just blinks for just a little window of 2-3 secs... Altho I will check those settings later...

Im pretty sure this time has been shortned following a reason, but im not sure which one...

Hiya guys,

Im again posting some news bout dominators...

I just want to say that I have been working on a Mind/Fire toon mainly for pvp (sig), so im working in permadomination too... Fristly I want to add that I had hit permadomination in Reminder like 2 months ago, so I know how it works...

My concern is that I have seen the domination icon that shows in the buffs tray icons now just sparks twice before expiring... Im sure that before it wiked for 10 secs, but actually, It is just a little 2-3 secs window, almost no time to chain it with the nxt domination cicle...

Maybe is this a nerf?? Is this a bug?? Is this only affecting me??

Well, just sharing some doubts...

Cheers, and peace.

Using this post, let me ask...

The lvl41 cap for IOs, are only for set IOs?? Coz Ive heard that normal crafted IOs (f.e: lvl50 rech redux) will work normally if you are not mlfed under lvl32... This lvl limit affect only for the bonuses u get from a set you have enhanced.

I will explain it with an example: say Ive got hasten with 3 rechred lvl50. In WB, hasten will have the same benefit as normally... BUT, say Ive got a set with 5 Doctored Wounds enhancements: The enhancemnt lvls are 30, 34, 39, 41 and 44. When I enter in Warburg, I would loose the 5th set bonus, since it is lvl capped, and I would loose the nice 5% recharge bonus DW gives at 5 enhancements... a real shame...

This info has been readed from forums, but not sure where... Also it is based on my experience.

Am I wrong?? Can any1 solve this question??

Cheers.

Happy new year to all u guys, im back

What r u talking about low lvls?? Ive never picked TK before stamina, i think that is the question u wanted to hear...

About the correct TK slotting, put at least 2 endred (3 recommended) and maybe 1-2 rechs if u want to pvp, to have it available more frecuently.

Cheers.

Hiya,

Im not much experienced in fire/, i have only played it to mids 30s, but i would give u some advice:

1) If u want a good PvE toon over all his career, go for fire/fire. Ur dmg will be nice, the best one for doms... FE is awesome, believe me. For PvP, well, it isnt the best one, but its a nice one... Bonfire will permaknock ur enemy once detogled, fast animation with ur ST hold... Good one mixed toon...

2) Mind/Fire is more pvp oriented, IMHO... Yeah, mind is awesome in control, but with Powerboost in ur secondary, is even better!! U still will be awesome in pve, but not so darning good as fire/fire... But in pvp, lot of tools, TK, a nice burst dmg, a ranged detoggled... all u need for pvp is in that combo...

Well, u can choose now u know it, which way would u like?? The best overall dominator, or the best in one aspect?? Thats up to u

But, overall, have fun, and enjoy the journey to 50

Cheers.

Hmm, ill give u some advice...

IMHO, fire breath is a little 'weak' for doms... I mean, if u play a corr, then if u can scourge it, it will be awesome, but with domis... u will feel like u r attrackting too much aggro and fire/ doesnt have much tools to control...

In other hand, I wouldnt skip hot feet never, since it will make the enemies try to enter u to melee and then, run back sssslllooooooowwwwwllllyyyyyyy... in all this time u will be able to kill them, so it is easy achieve that enemies attack u once as much, or maybe twice... That is a nice control power... This has 1 problem: teaming. If u team a lot the aggro it generates will make u faceplanting a lot, so if u like to teaming, then u should skip it... But i would consideer it, i wouldnt skip it...

Well, i dont see the point in using TPF with ur toon... U can use flares or fire blast to pull enemies after applying smoke... In fact, i consider TPF the way to pull if u are a meleer, but u have a lot of ranged attacks... Only if u want to pvp a lot it would be usefull, and not really, since u will tp ur enemy close to u, and usually ppl will be much dangerous in melee than ranged, so i dont get ur point...

Have fun.

Lol, my reminder got permadomination since the earlies 40s... Easy to hit it, and relatively cheap...

Actually im heading to a Mind/Fire dominator, I want to test out how good is mind/ice against mind/fire...

In fact, when i hit 50 i will write a guide comparing mind/ice against mind/fire, and show some light about which one is better for what...

Cheers guys.

u could go and get the numbers...

The most expensive IOs (excluding purples, still too soon to say their price) are, in this order, LotG, Decimation/Entropy chaos, and then, Crushing impacts/Doc Wounds...

The easy and cheap IOs are the ones based in controls which can provide 6.25% (glimpse for fear, malaise for confuse, <cant remember the name> for sleeps, inmobs and slows are nice too, though not sure), so as much as u can take based in controls the cheaper ur build would be...

So, as much control based IOs u can get, the cheaper ur build would be... If u have to rely much in decimations and LotGs the cost will climb to hundred of mills...

The bad thing is, the more control based IOs u get, the worst dmg u do, and I think dominators need dmg as much as they can... But ey, u will be in permadom, so it will be a permabuff in dmg, but is it enough?? Well, then u will have to spend ur money...

So, in ur case, ice/ can use inmob, sleep, confuse (in artic air, which will be a total pain, and no procs in it) and slows. /thorns can use -defdebuff (no idea bout these sets in i11), ranged dmg, melee dmg, cones and slows in caltrops... Not the best sec, but sure u can achieve it.

Hope it helped.

Peace.

Mind/ice can easily get permadom using cheaps IOs, talking from experience... get sleeps, terror and confuses and u go with the 5x6.25%, get medicine, the 2 swords and anything else and u go with the 5x5%, and then go for a bit more 3.75% with the slows (3-4 i think it is enough)... All those IOs are cheap and relatively easy to get (maybe the most expesives would be the heals and the Crushing impacts for the swords)...

Also, with i11, get levitate 6slotted and go for ur 7.5%...

Aprox total inf needed: aprox 30 mills, which is really low considering how much it cost to other builds...

PS: of course, my build has LotG and Decimations, which improves my slotting and powers selection, but my build is expensivier (round 150 mills actually without purples)...

Cheers.

I have played many combos to mids 30s:

grav/psi -> lvl38, meh

fire/fire -> lvl34, meh too

ice/thorn -> 28? bah, dont bother...

And only im amazed with mind/ set... in fact, my main is mind/ice and im developing a mind/fire (actually in lvl20) that is really frickin... And facing to perma-DOOM-ination...

Peace.

Hiya,

as a long dominator player, I think u must be entering and getting out melee continously...

Think in dominators like a mix of controllers and blasters, low hp and high control, but not high dmg...

So IMHO u shouldnt respec ur big hitter never...

My final advice: "If u would have 6-finger-hands u would be a better dominator... So stay active..."

Peace.

SM Rocks

On fryday maybe, ill be on at 19h GM aprox. When u logg send a tell to @the_defuser and ill go to pocket D.

On saturday will be hard to see u, i will be outside this weekend...

Peace.

Although I have a lvl50 mind/ice, and i can pvp fairly nice in WB, RV and arenas, i think a mind/fire would outperform my dominator in pvp, just from my knowledge from union server and which are ur enemies...

Well, in fact, u r making me lvl up a mind/fire and see how it goes... I got a fire/fire in the mids 30s and it really hurts in dmg, so I must try this out...

Hiya,

Being a dominator is a really frustrating experience if u cant rely on a team healing/buffing/supporting you...

IMHO actually i cant imagine a /psi good pvper dominator, since his both *star* powers are close range (drain psy, PSW)...

Im more agree with the idea of /ice or /fire as assaults sets, and here are the reasons:
* /Ice: nice ranged chain, u dont need to get in melee to kill enemies, best dps, it slows.
* /Fire: THE ONLY toggle droper ranged (this could be the only reason why I could play with a /fire), and also, fiery embrace, for that bit of burst dmg.

For primaries, I have played all of them, and the best for single target control is mind/ (also, it checks psi defense).

Of course, all this info is for pvp, that is what we are talkin bout.

Cheers, and peace.

/elec is nice because it offers nice resists for all kind of dmg in high lvls, and it is almost the most overall complete secondary set (lack of selfheal IMHO).

But pairing it with DB has no synergies, since DB already recharges really fast, and LR (as u said) might be overkill.

What i heard, DB has low end attacks, although u will be spamming them... Maybe its a nice idea to pair it with an end-hog secondary...

My bet is DB/DA or DB/SA (although SA has some inconvenients, u know)... Maybe a DB/EA (yeah, energy) is a try that would be good to taste... DB has some attacks and combos that gives -acc, and that stack nicely with /EA defense...

Peace.

Grats on your 1st 50!

The deflating feeling after can be depressing, especially first time around and especially if it took a while, or was a particulary fun toon for you.
Don't stress about finding another toon to click with asap, that could make you more frustrated. Play around and test some stuff and you'll click again with something .

Just one thing:
