i have been both Gadgets and Hardlight and im always stuck switching back and forth between these two powers. with gadgets i feel like it just comes down to how much of a window i have open to get close enough to the boss to get off the stealh surprise attack with hardlight its easier to pull off because im mainly just doing hand clap i dont know i always have a tough time deciding between the two overall i feel gadgets is overall a superior power/ troll but i mainly play elite content and really cant decide between the two
Erm.. (you probably know this) but if you use the combat tab and get some burn totals. Higher burn should mean it's easier (not always). Opinions: GLant/YLant right now is not great.. but its versatile as you correctly point out. Gadgets does very decent damage so long as your loadout is sorted.. I'm getting 10k/sec in JLD OW. Ref: I have these powersets leveled.
