I've got ninjas (caltrops) and the tar patch available, so I can keep them soft controlled to a high degree. Force fields, for example, wouldn't work so well. Depends on your setup.

If that's the case, why did they come out with the Soloist.. erm... Mastermind? That's what I played through 40, and that's pretty much how it works. Ignored all my primaries but the summon and minion buff powers, and dumped everything into dark miasma. AoE heal, AoE fear, AoE slow, AoE rez, AoE stealth, single-target hold, massive to-hit debuffs to everything in sight, and a source of constant damage that cost no endurance to maintain... It was like playing a multiclassed WoW Warlock/Paladin. At some point I fell in with some sources of damage and we found bigger missions, and everything fell in moments. The bottleneck/herding strategy does work really quite well. Bah. If that’s the case, why did they come out with the Soloist.. erm… Mastermind?
