RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

ok some ppl may not agrre on this but i belive its Thugs/Dark Miasma. Ive tried several mm builds and this is the in my Opinion the best and coolest. Thugs are weaker but i belive they do the most damadge. Now with Dark Miasma you get a group heal so u heal all pets at once, plus u get all sorts of goodies, including a 7th pet

Now i just happened to have an Uber Thugs/Dark Miasma build!

1 Call Thugs, Twilight Grasp
2 Dual Wield
4 Tar Patch
6 Equip Thugs
8 Hasten
10 Howling Twilight
12 Call Enforcer
14 Super Spee
16 Shadow Fall
18 Swift
20 Health
22 Stamina
24 Assault
26 Call Bruiser
28 Tactics
30 Manuevers
32 Upgrade Thugs
35 Black Hole
38 Dark Servant

now we dip into Patrons for ur last 4 powers these come at 41, 44, 47, and 49. These powers improve on ur weakness.

When ur in PvP keep Pets on defensive so they soak up all damage done to u. When u find an enemy shoot it with dual wield as a taunt then let ur pets go to work. Heal and Debuff as needed

Hand of Blood Lvl X Spines/Regen Stalker...Triumph
Mystic Entity lvl 24 Katana/Regen Scrapper...Champion
Panzer Faust Lvl 23 SS/Energy Brute (retired)...Protector
Arbiter Darkwind Lvl 33 Thugs/Dark MM (retired)...Protector

Thanks to Mimori for the great sig

Best pvp build is thugs/poison, best pve build is bots/anything. I'll leave it at that

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I've seen some good ninja/dark builds. There pretty quick and powerful and of course dark for the excellent healing. I don't really know much about thugs, but the ones i team up with are pretty good as well. Kinda like mercenaries, but evil-er and without heals. I have a merc/traps build and so far, i like it; its many small hits. (But i don't feel super at all, seing as i have virtually no super powers. Except for super fast phone dialing... :( ) Yeah so i'll have to say ninjas or robots for now...

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

Ninja/dark is probably the best mastermind build in the game. Ninjas are melee combatents thus stop foes appraching you as teh mm, and they are well equipt for melee as well. Also personally i think ninjas sound the coolest and the oni (though i disagree with it being in the set) is amazing.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I got my butt handed to me by a Robots/Force Fields MM in PVP the other day. Anytime I tried to get away the MM would drop out of the sky with a repulsing bubble and force me back into her 'bots. I felt like a freaking pinball.
Then a Ninja/Dark MM teamed up with the first one and I was literally not able to do anything but die.

Either way forcefileds are second and DM is first on the best secondary. Most will agree but not all, thats the fun really isnt it?

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

Im new to GameAMp (round of applause complete). I have my fav toon on COV and COH, a Necro/Dark Miasma MM. I learned alot from some recent endeavours, and have found my toon to be damn good. I have no attack powers, and all my Miasmas. No siphon life, just my henchmen, soul extract too. Im at lvl 28 now, 3 days ago i was lvl 26. I first learned about dropping my attack powers when someone broadcasted the "No Attacks" build.
Next, someone told me of the Bodyguard, Defensive Follow, which distributes your damage across your henchmen, making you an ubertank. I then took my toon to Bloody Bay and did some PVP action. I actually never lost, in fact i had 6 heros on me, and took them like 5 minutes to kill me. I then set forth a 500k reward to any hero that could duel me, and win (from my lvl 40 blaster). Ofcourse with 6 LUCKs someone can beat me, but i then stated no INSPirations. One person did, a lvl 50 with many Hami Enhancements. I killed Stone Tanks, Regen Scrappers, too easy it seemed. From there, I jumped on Relentless and get about one bubble per mish (in Sirens Call). Following stroy arcs you get less, but the end bonus is great. Overall, I love the MM I built, my first COV toon. None of them can compare. No matter what build, healing your guys, and BodyGuard make you a great power.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I'd say like..Necro/Dark. I was doing one on one in the arena a few days back, and...I got my arse handed to me on a platter. You know..the zombies wouldn't 'die'..They have..really good regeneration, and if the MM manages to stay alive, the pets will do the rest. I suppose everything but soldiers is good enough, I really don't like soldiers. But hey, MM's are not my thing, so don't listen to me, I just think Zombies are cool...<_<

LOL. Zombies r very powerful post 32 b/c of dark empowerment. When using it all of ur zombies will be able 2 heal and u also have the dark servent at lvl 38 2 hold and heal. But a fire corr will own any zombie MM no matter what the resistants they have. Btw zombies r resistant 2 everything but fire.

As for the best pve i suggest bots/dm. As for pvp i think ninja or thugs/dm should work.

i have a level 38 thug mm with forcefeilds an i think that you def need to beable to heal if i could choose over i would have chose thugs an traps dark misses at the wrong times plus caltrops rule as for the thugs ive killed many a hero in pvp with gang war an the bruser beats the oni, lych ,an comando, so i would say the best build is thugs/traps

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I have Bots/dark for my build. i think anything ??/dark will do its job, the ability to heal your pets and yourself is really useful. just don't use mercs... they kinda suck. May just be me but thats what i think.

Bots/dark FTW

CoH -Wylde illusion - lvl 44 illusion/ff controller

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

Here it is! The moment you've all been waiting for! My level 50 Ninja/DM build after a few respecs. It's defenses, debuffs, holds, immobilizations, heald, and end recovery have all been tuned to perfection. The Ninjas themselves are a force to reckoned with just by themselves, but add a few holds and amazing manueverability to the Mastermind's arsenal and you have a great build for PvP and PvE. If anyone is interested in the numbers just ask and I'll be happy to tell you what you need to know.

Without further ado I present, myself.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

Wow, a smart person. :P Nice and generally balanced. Trying to help my brother on his MM build was like talking to a brick wall. He ignored my smartness and insisted on slotting Health and Stamina with 5 or 6 slots, when what really should be done is 3 slotting. We all know how the % increase drops and drops the more you slot it. It's useless to place more than 4 of the same enhancement into one power. I'm liking that build. Can I copy? <_<

Go for it. Just make sure to get Aimed Shot early on and respec it out later when you're able to the first Respec. And if someone asks about the build make sure to give credit where credit is due.

Oh, and thank you for reinforcing my already overly inflated ego. I'm sure the rest of the world will thank you for this truly villainous act.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

My necros get handled by Fire, I get worried now that I am facing Spec Ops Long bow, them in combination with a Flamethrower, can take half their life in almost no time, then my heal hits, and they are full health again. My hold is what I depend on, PVE fear dominates, and works ok in PVP. Heres my current build at lvl 28.

Korageenan Lvl 28 Necro/Dark Miasma

Zombie Horde 2 slots Just Pukes and slaps!!
Damage (2)

Enhant Undead 3 slots
Recharge Red
End Discount (2)

Grave Knight 5 slots High Melee and Acc Debuff

Soul Extraction 4 slots Holds and Acc Debuff

Twilight Grasp 6 Slots Heal (also Acc Debuff)
Heal (3)

Recharge Reduc

Tar Patch 2 slots AOE slows TGTs and lowers Res
Recharge Reduction (2)

Darkest Night 2 slots Debuffs Accuracy of TGT
Accuracy Debuff (2)

Howling Twilight 3 Slots Can be used to disorient TGT
Recharge Reduction (3)

Shadow Fall 3 slots +Def and res to 4 powers
End Discount
Damage Resistance (2)

Fearsome Stare 6 Slots Enemy rarely attacks! +Acc Debuff
Fear Duration (3)
Acc (2)
Recharge Red

Petrifying Gaze 1 slot Enemy Hold
Accuracy

Teleportation Friend, Self and enemy
Will get TP team to get the dang Knights to Melee more often

As for endurance, i rarely run out, usually Shadow fall has to be on to run out.
The Accuracy Debuffs get crazy, if all my guys are on a 3 lvl higher boss, and all my stuff is toggled on, they WILL die! Ofcourse any advice would also be much appreciated. Soul Mastery will be my plan at level 41.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

Probably not<_<..Trick Arrow is cool in my opinion, especially that oil slick arrow. About a few months ago, everytime one was layed down near my Fly Trap, it started to attack it. And to this day..I haven't got the slightest idea why lol. It wasn't doing anything..I don't think the oil slick can be 'killed' by a plant.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I don't think it's wise for me to go into my 'Why Ninjas are the Best Henchmen' speech right now seeing as I've already beat that puppy to death five times over. So I'm just gonna say that I have yet to see a better build than mine that works well in both PvP and PvE environments. However I would like to talk about why it's the player and not the build itself that makes a build great. This is especially true for Masterminds more so than any other archetype.

You see, I've seen and heard of so many other players that have tried to copy what I have done (I can think of three right off the top of my head and think of a few others I randomly met in-game) and all of them have failed to grasp what it truly means to be a great Ninja/Miasma Mastermind. In the end what seperates the true N/DM MMs from the copy-cats is that we know not just what powers to take, but how to use them and when. I'm not about to reveal all my secrets just yet, but I will give you this one small hint: combination. Knowing what powers to use and when is only half the battle of become a truly magnificent player. The other half is knowing which power pools to take and why. And also knowing how to use those powers in combination with those from your other pools. This is the key. If you know these things and use a bit of stratedgy and have a determined mindset, you can achieve greatness. But, exactly how to do what I'm telling you to do is for you to figure out. Why not just tell you? Because figuring it out for yourself is the first step. If I told you any more than what I have you will not succeed. Well, not entirely anyways.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

And when you really think about it, making a build successful is easy if you have a little common sense. You just have to ask yourself logical questions; How do I prevent the enemy from attacking me? What strategy to I want to use? What can I do to make my attack(s) more effective? What are my weaknessess?(how do I get over them?) and strengths?(What can I do that the enemy can't?). What is my back-up plan for when things get too out of control? Blah blah blah. That's basically the bottom line.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

Your completely right, knowing your MM is the best. Once you accomplish that, a force to be reckoned with, you shall be. Countless Relentless mishes.....and I would say that youve done PVE! Acheiving a Reputation of say 20, in Arena matches (one on one) in a short time, then you da man!

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I am very good w/ my N/DM but i think that comes from my experince w/ my Dark/Dark defender. So all the DM powers of am very familiar w/. So imo if u know what the powers do and how 2 combine them 2 the best efectivness from previous experinces of course ur going 2 be successful. I have seen some crappy MM combos.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I would have to say Nec/DM. I like it because its just DoT madness! It may not be the best build but it works great for soloing. Though at lvl 19, Twilight Grasp is the only DM power I have, in the future I do plan on getting holds though. But in my opinion, Nec/DM is the best, plus there just so fun to watch them DoT crush the enemy.

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

I would imagine Thugs/DM are best for PVP, although myself I've had alot of success with my Necro/DM. At first I took GW's patrons, but then decided to respec them out and grab Soul Extraction and Black Hole again, primarily for raids. Those patron powers look nice, but SE and BH work better in raids. I've got this build fine-tuned, and often hear compliments on how amazing my MM is, especially for necro. I must say, while fire is their bane they still have self-heals and my heals are huge, so it takes alot of fire to really take out the pets. On top of that, their resistance to psionics is the best of any pets (no brains, no worry). They are tough, debuff well, do lots of damage (especially with knights getting crits all the time), and between the lich, servant, and DM that's alot of fear and holds. I'd really like to have Hasten in my build, but I just couldn't justify dropping any other powers for it... I might drop Dark Embrace for it, then again that shield + Bodyguard mode makes me anything but squishy. Without further banter, here's my build:

RE: What is the BEST Mastermind Build?!?

Hmm....after reading some of the prior posts...I felt I should reply here.

My very first villain, who happens to be my badge-whore villain too, is a Nec/FF build. Now, I'm not a numbers cruncher or a min/maxer. When I made my guy, it was based off a pen and paper villain I had created.

I like my build, perhaps not the most effective one, but I've learned how to make it work. With the force fields, I provide protection for my undead and the force bubble is great for pinning enemies on the wall while the zombies tear into them. Its especially useful in CoT caves, near portals.

And of course, Personal Force Field is a lifesaver, especially when you first land in Grandville and need to fly around.

P.S. - Zombies to rock after 32. With DE and EU, they can hang. And the liches rock!
