so now that im 21 ive kinda hit a slow spot for my core powers and am looking at what to get.

assault and tactics aoe buffs intrigue me greatly
As most of my skills are accuracy based i was thinking going in this direction would help me but also help everyone around me

assault you guys get dmg boosts and with tactics you get accuracy boosts.
but i still dont have hasten yet and am thinking of going like this

22 assault
24 tactics
26 hasten and skip wormhole
28 get total focus (itll be my first melee skill but its hits hard.)

do you guys think im crazy and should get speed skills? or healing skills?

suggestions are welcome.

fyi i have a 3 day weekend this weekend so im plan to play much of that time and get as close to 30 as i can.

I'm trying to work assault and tactics into my build as well. Bear in mind though that they have a radius, you gotta be close to your group.

what is your build to level 21?

Do you have the fitness line worked in for stamina? I know on the outside it looks like you "waste" 2 powers to get it, but they have made health worth having now. It helps you resist sleeps from attackers.

I didn't take health at 20 because after analyzing the team dynamic people would probably really enjoy having speed boost available. At 22 I am taking health and 24 is Stamina. My next attack or pool will be at 26.

The leadership line is great but I am not sure how big of a boost a Dominator provides (it scales differently depending on AT). For example in CoH Defenders offer the best Leadership pool increase. I am not sure if it is the same on the CoV side.

im getting for myself more than others as it adds i think a 7 or 10% boost to powers and 10% more accuracy is huge for me and i need all the dmg help i can get. the fact that others will benefit is only gravy on top

Get manuvers instead of assult. It gives a better boost. If they can't hit us, then we live longer, see.

teleport friend
teleport
hover


Remember the other night when you asked me how I like teleport? My reply was something along the lines of hover making it better. Well last night, teleport cost me 2 trips to the hospital while trying to get around Sharkhead Isle. Those Scrapyarders hit freaking hard to my fragile corruptor body. Looks like I am working Hover into my build as well.

Nobody gets that it seems. Everyone gets assault and tactics.

Assult is a smaller buff than manuvers is. So you won't notice the damage increase as much as you'd notice the dodge increase.

I'm picking up assault mostly for my own selfish needs. A 10% increase to my damage output is nice. I don't need extra defense.

Most people who are taking damage are equipped for it, ala my EN/EN brute. The ones who arent equipped for it shouldnt be taking damage.

I can't take damage, but I don't get damaged too often anyway due to my holds/slows.

Not fair, I was malefactored down and didn't have my good powers.
