I run an executioner build and did while leveling also, and I found that at about level 40-45. . somewhere in the low 40's anyway that using stealth more often while using life-steal gear and the Ioun Stone companion made my soloing a lot nicer. At 45 you can get Shadow Strike as well, and between it, B&S, and Lurker's…
When solo you can kill all the trash with a single Enforced Threat and set of 3 Cleave swings. So long as the boss isn't doing a big-red attack it won't hit for much and you can easily afford to put your back to it in order to clear the trash, which actually hits harder and since there's 3+ of them... yeah, clear trash and…
Level 5 Control Wizard -- Mid-30's Control Wizard -- Mid-50's Control Wizard -- Level 60 Control Wizard -- Definite progression, but still fairly subtle and it's all "blue" so it's harder to tell the difference.
Stats look fine to me. I personally went a touch more "balanced" so I'm something like 21, 12, 21, 12, 12, 19, IIRC, but tbh, I don't see that the stat bonuses are all *that* huge.
1) Both 2) For solo PvE -- Slot Chill Strike in your "Tab" slot. This will nearly 1-shot any trash swarms and make them easily killable with your at-will power before they can get close to you. Also keep Shield (after level 20) slotted and active at all times. This reduces the damage you takes and gives you a high-damage…
While I agree that Righteousness sucks, I found that when solo on my DC, I generally only needed to use potions vs the solo-instance end bosses, and a lot of times not even then. Daunting Light 1-shots trash swarms, so they weren't a problem, and if it didn't quite kill them all off then CoBL would. CoBL would also keep…
Wouldn't it be easier to suggest that campfires and/or portable altars regen divinity as well as hp? No need to worry about a trigger of a wipe, simply lets it happen.
When I hit 50 on my cleric I grabbed AS. Didn't seem to make me any more survivable than my FF had before, but sure did cut my dps down. I went back to using FF. The other night I hit 53 and went into a Foundry. Decided to play with AS again and survivability was awesome. I was completely invulnerable to the mobs. But dps…
Depends on what you're doing. Vs a single controllable "boss" mob I can keep up Chill Strike, Entangle, and Freeze (from Ray of Frost) more or less indefinitely. I find it to be a winning combo in those situations. Are you referring more to AE control/damage in dungeons? Soloing Foundry or instance quests? General overland…
I just watched the trailer and all I could think throughout it was "Fail design. Epic fail." I and all of my friends who I play with find pvp in any game to be pointless at best, and none of us participate in pvp in any manner in any game that we play. So now, the end-game of this requires a timed pve event to lead in to a…
Rune stones go in your companion's rune slots. Enchantments go into slots on your items. Each item *can* have an enchant slot, though won't necessarily always have one. yone don't see enchant slots becoming really common until about level 20.
