Illusion or Mind Control?

I've gone through the two powersets more times than I can count, and both seem like they would be a lot of fun to mess with. The ability to mess with the enemy in various ways is generally how I always pick my debuffer, but they both have so many ways to play :P

Anybody around that plays them that can help me out with it?

Also...why is it nobody ever seems to ask about Mind Control? Yea, you lost a little exp during the battle, but being able to walk in while half the enemies are asleep and the other half are killing each other makes it fairly easy to kill them doesn't it?

i would have to say that ill is the better of the two. basing this on the fact that mc has no pets while ill has the most pets of all troller sets.

not many people make mc, and if they do, in my experience they seem to be leaning towards pvp.

re: illusion or mind control?

if neuronia is around, she can probably give you an educated answer as she has 50s of both. i have a 50 mind. i tried ill but never could get into it. as for mind not having pets, well, that's kind of the point of confuse powers: you make your own pets. lieutenants make the best pets as they hit more and do better damage than minions, whereas bosses are much harder to confuse.

cause there aren't many people playing mind controllers.
one of the problems with mc is one of their strength.
sleep.
sleep is a good controlpower.
not as end heavy as a hold and much better than an immob.
but teams tend to wake them up by damaging them.
espacially all the aoe junkies out there make it difficult for a mind troller.

i remember a team with a lot of singletarget heroes and a mind troller...and a fire tank refusing to turn of his blazing aura and running around like a mad man...to get aggro...even from the sleeping.
even as he was told to turn ba off, he didn't.

btw...containment stops working after the first hit on a sleeping foe, right?

I'm listening to real music.
