Basically, my friends attempts at CCing at cosmics didn't work because it turns out CC durations are nearly halved on higher level villains. But I want to see if the build he has could, under any circumstances, reach high enough CC durations.
He can't justify spending g on something that might not work, but that can be bypassed if someone already knows about this type of stuff.
Radiant AT (level 40)
Both ranks of Dominion spec
Both ranks of Torment spec
Heroic Gloves (not Growth) with two R7 PRE mods
Heroic Breastplate with two R7 PRE mods
Legion Helmet of Speed with 2 R7 PRE mods and 2 R7 Sentinel Brooches
Any 3 SCR secondaries that each give +20 to PRE
Any talents that give a total of +15 to PRE
What is the rough duration and cooldown of Psionic Accelerator device with this set up?
How much better would this build and gear be?;
Radiant AT (level 40)
Both ranks of Dominion spec
Both ranks of Torment spec
Legion Gloves of Growth with 2 R7 PRE mods and 2 R7 Growth Amulets
Heroic Breastplate with 2 R7 PRE mods
Legion Helmet of Speed with 2 R7 PRE mods and 2 R7 Sentinel Brooches
Any 3 scr secondaries that each give 37 to PRE
Take following Talents: Diplomatic, Showmanship, Shrug it Off, Intimidating, Finesse, Impressive Physique
And again, now what would be the rough duration and cooldown of Psionic Accelerator?
I'm sure someone out there either has done this or attempted too.

- Be safe and have fun, champs - for science!
good enough, just PRE, and merc
This is a big journey, so far if you're reading this, wish you a good day
Why not if the work has been done already, which it seems to me is highly likely?
Gradi is basically correct. Your Radiant can't pull off CC'ng the Kiga's Hounds. You need ego sleep or a long lasting AOE hold. Vengeance isn't good enough for that, even with tons of PRE. As far as I understand it, holding the hounds is all about ego sleeping them with a second hold (Mental Storm?) to fill in the gaps.
IMHO - your best function as a Radiant is rezzing and healing. Very useful talents to have during that content. The good thing about a Radiant is that you can slack off on PRE in exchange for CON. This is thanks to Seraphim.
If you really want to try it --- I'd suggest these specs and the best gear you can get your hands on.

You might be able use the Psionic Accelerator device plus Vengeance. Again, that's a lot of speculation. I really wouldn't invest in trying this without having it tested on PTS first. You could end up wasting a lot of resources on something that doesn't work well.
