DCUO - Ice Battle Tank Build: Pets (Field Test: Book of the Black - R)

Описание: This is a video demonstrating a combination Might / Pets Battle Tank Build.

This character is 493 CR, using DPS Gear in Tank Role, 700 SP so Might has 430 SP allocated, or approx. 600K Might. Artifacts are Source Shard, MERCY, Grimorium Verum, Transformation Card, and Red Tornado Module.

This build uses Robot Sidekick, Grimorium Verum, and a Tier 3 Motherbox as the primary pets, with support provided by the Mister Freeze Ally's Chilling Vengeance Ability, which can produce (up to) 3 additional Snow Devil pets if hit while Shielded.

The loadout is discussed in greater depth in the video itself, but the top tray (left to right) and bottom tray (left to right) are as follows:

Luminous Beam, Frost Blast, Avalanche, MERCY Protocol, Spore Pod, Reflection,

Neovenom Boost, Winter Ward, Hard Light Shield, Godwave Strength, Exobyte Robot Sidekick, and Life Shield:

There isn't a fixed rotation, necessarily: start with Spore Pod, Reflection, then MERCY, switch down, Godwave Strength, switch up, and then Luminous Beam, Frost Blast, by which point MERCY will be off cool down - use it again, then switch down: if Godwave is off cooldown, use it, otherwise switch up, then Avalanche and Luminous, Frost Blast until Spore Pod / Reflection are off cooldown, then repeat.

I use weapon taps between Luminous, Frost Blast, and Avalanche for additional damage and to cut the animation dovetail.

Essentially: you want to use MERCY any time it's off cooldown, and you want to check / use Godwave every time you use MERCY in order to maintain high output for the pets, since Godwave doesn't have a consistent cooldown. You want to use MERCY immediately off cooldown, if at all possible, because it reduces your Trinket Pet cooldown and that Motherbox Knocks.

In the sparring target test for the above build, the final result was around 470K/s *with a tank*.

I will advise the following: This is a very high variance loadout, so you may see large dips and spikes: These are not indicative of the median performance. Also, this is a fairly fully-realized endgame character, so if you have lower level Artifacts, lower CR, or fewer SP, adjust expectations accordingly.
