DeBuff, of course that build was a joke... wasn't it kind of obvious?

Nope... haven't installed HeroStats yet on this new PC, will do so today and give it another go tonight.

Whoa, Rent. That build is so much better than the build I came up with o_O I applaud you!

Was the build I gave you not good enough?

Update: I've tried doing this with a Rikti boss, but unfortunately I couldn't regenerate fast enough so I decided to try it with the Rikti boss as a lieutenant (Villainous difficulty). After another six hours of farming this, the bar has YET again barely moved and I'm starting to feel I'm doing something terribly wrong :P

Damn. Well, thanks for the tips Now to find a non-timed mission with Rikti in it...

Yesterday I decided to start farming damage on my 50 Stone Melee/Willpower Brute, for the Unbreakable badge, needed to get the Born in Battle accolade. I entered a Circle of Thorns mission on Relentless/Invincible, gathered two Guides together, went into Rest (with all other toggles off) and let them attack me. When I came back this morning I expected the bar to have moved at least a tiny bit, but it appears like it hasn't even moved a millimeter, whereas this badge was extremely fast and easy to get on my Energy Melee/Electric Armour Brute.

Is the badge bar just slow to update? Am I doing something wrong? Or am I just plain stupid? o_O

If there's room for a level 50 fully IO'd Stone Melee/Willpower/Soul Mastery Brute who smashes the [censored] out of things, I'd like to come along!

Currently working on an Illusion Control/Thermal Radiation Controller, almost level 50... the first support toon I've ever gotten past level 10... he'll sit nicely next to my four 50 Scrappers XD

1.I know that due to lack of burst damage dark melee can't really play PvP, but i am 80% PvEer anyways.
2.I mainly intend to use shadow punch/smite because i like(13 lvl currently) the feel in the playstyle. Am i wrong? is any of these powers useless at high levels?
3.how about dark consumption?will it be useful?

[/ QUOTE ]

1) ...?
2) Nothing wrong with that, both are very good attacks. Fitting in Shadow Maul would be nice, but I can understand if you don't... the animation is horrible.
3) Dark Consumption is almost a necessity and you will want it as soon as possible.

[ QUOTE ]
I'd take Dark Consumption earlier as it provides an excellent damage and to-hit boost but it's only really up every other mob.

[/ QUOTE ]

Dark Consumption is an endurance drain. Soul Drain is what you're talking about. But yes, it should be taken as early as possible.

/signed, because I only just saw the topic.

I've been around for awhile played pvp and pve with both Tankers and Brutes . I have noticed Brutes are worse than Scrappers in Pvp , i am cuious whether it's time for a revamp of this AT as Villains lost their edge on two villain only Corruptor powers which gave defence now heores have the same set's which give Heroes more defence (argueably tankers have more defence and now with cold domination and forcefield they have much more). So i say again i'm curious whether we should form a petition to get brute revamped i.e brutes to have much more hp than tankers which would compensate for the lower defence so they can absorb more while playing tanking and damage role form an 8 man team every seems to demand from them allready(tankers have better res and therefore soak up much more damage and they have much more hp's than a brute)

Quoting the WoW forums: Please go die in a fire.

The AT's are meant to be different... if you play one with lower HP, you probably deal either insane damage or you have some form of control. If you want a lot of HP, go roll an Ice Armour Tanker with perma-Hoarfrost.

Sec...

-Sting of the Wasp is underslotted for damage
-High Pain Tolerance needs Healing slotted asap!
-Soaring Dragon is underslotted for damage
-You underslotted Mind Over Body too
-Please get rid of the Touch of Death IO's... go for at least five pieces of Crushing Impact in your attack, they're a million times better!

What I'd do, is probably respec the toon and rearrange some slots and powers. I find Heightened Senses a lot more useful than some more Smashing/Lethal resistance.


This is probably what I'd go for at level 31:

Don't have time to look at the build right now. As for your other question: Right click on a slot, then you can just type in the level you want the enhancement to be and press enter. That's it.

I don't mean to be mean or anything... but skipping Focus? Skipping Eviscerate? Planning on dropping Spin later on?

And then you take Weave? Tough is a good choice to stack with your Fire Shield but WEAVE?! Come on. Lose it.

Even if Issue 13 will go live in the near future, then you still need to reserve at least two months for everyone who wants to join on a Pain Dominator to level to 50 ánd get some IO slotting done.

November is way too early.

I find the Carnies incredibly annoying on my Regens. Not because they're hard, no, they're [censored] easy, but because they go down so quickly they drain your endurance like maaaaad.

The only EB so far I had trouble with was the Positron Automaton from one of the Rikti War Zone contacts... for some reason I just couldn't take him down as easily as all the other EB's.

As for Claws: Yay, great powerset! Good, quick damage and great mitigation, because you can keep your enemy on his back permanently with 3 knockdown/back powers.
As for Willpower: Yay, great powerset! Quite heavy on the endurance (four toggles), but Quick Recovery more than makes up for this, and since Claws isn't very heavy on the endurance, you should be fine. You can handle a lot of enemies at once, because you can get tons of regeneration with Rise to the Challenge.

Good luck and have fun

Many congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. BaB

Wonder when the Back Alley Baby joins the Freedom Phalanx or the Vindicators...

I've done several ITF's so far, on my Fire/Regen Scrapper who hasn't hit level 50 yet, and yes, I tend to die more than the rest of the team, but honestly I don't care. I have one AoE attack but that single AoE attacks deals such an insane amount of damage when we're fighting one group of Traitors that it makes me wonder why Scrappers would suck here. And what if they're more single target oriented (Dark Melee, for example)? They can pick off the bosses. Yay.

So honestly, I don't see why Scrappers would be no good in ITF.

You really can't stop doing this, can you? :P

Just wanted to say hi, because I'm back

[ QUOTE ]
You should stick at the BS/DA, it's so much fun. Got mine to 50 a few months back and my new IO'd build has a shead load of +dmg and +rechrg.

Plus what could be better than those crit head splitters. Fast low recharge attack chains are for wusses.

Oh and another scrapper to add:

Micky Serendipity - SL 21 DM/SR

[/ QUOTE ]


We all know that BS/DA is very strong :P But it's quite hard to level up.

Oh btw, happy birthday.

Broadsword/Dark Armor - super end hog, after I hit level 15, I couldn't be bothered playing with this alt anymore. I have altaholism, so maybe one day...
Dual Blades/Willpower - like everyone else during the test run, I made one of these and joined parties made solely of this specific powersets. Put aside for a while, but recently came back to this character and now she's level 37.
Martial Arts/Regen - When I create characters, I try to pick something which I haven't used before. As this character's backstory was connected to a Energy/Invul Brute, a Super Strength/Super Reflexes Brute, and a Elec/Elec Brute, it pretty much left this option to use on my new Scrapper (can't use Dark/Dark, that's too evil looking ). Once she hit SOs, she was able to solo EBs quite effortlessly, which is pretty nice.
Spines/Dark Armor - yeah, everyone secretly has one of these, don't laugh

Ide! I didn't know you were as addicted to Scrappers as me!
