(Side note: I meant to say in my previous post "I suppose then it'd be better to say that I consider thermal an upgraded version of empathy then...
". It might also be worth noting that I'm evaluating the sets purely on how I imagine I'd use them as a soloing MM.)
It's not just a healing set, but it doesn't really give you anything else until level 16.
The buffs that are directly comparable offer bonuses I find more suitable to my desires in thermal than empathy. Thermal also has resistance shields which
would stack nicely with the resistances of several of the MM pets.
And thermal has those debuffs which are available much more regularly than empathy's auras. Knowing how I am with powers on such long recharges. They
don't do as much to keep you alive, necessarily... but they would certainly make the enemies go down faster.
What it really comes down to is, I find the tools it offers far more desirable, and I believe the overall experience I would find at least tolerable, wheras
empathy would drive me completely mad.
Still, I suppose if your opinion of it is common, that could work to my advantage. Might make it easier for devs to be convinced to give thermal to MMs. '.'
-Morgan. Also, according to MHD, the recharge on CM is 4 seconds, and Fortitude 60 seconds, so... I'd hope so. '.'
