    People say Dual Blades and Claws are close but I don't like Claws at all. I love Dual Blades for many reason. They both have the same power with Follow up and Blinding Feint but other than that it doesn't seem that they are that a like to me, to each their own.
  2. My Archery/MM Blaster has Fly and SJ. I have both for Hover and CJ to get my range defense up to the soft cap.
  3. With the way PS works I think it would be better for a Scrapper. Now both /SR and /SD are good, but it is just hard for me these days to pick /SR over /SD. So I would make a KM/SD Scrapper.

    Activating regen powers does not break DB combos. The combos stay up for about 3sec so you can hit Dull Pain between attacks and still get your combo off. It does hurt your DPS but that is just like any other set that as redraw.

    So 120/(100+131.33+70+81.6)=.313....... Am I supposed to convert the percentages to decimals and then divide?

    Edit: I divided by 100 and got 31.3s for my answer, that seems a lot more realistic. Nice to know that a very rare AS will lop off 3 seconds from Soul Drain's recharge.
    Yes you convert to decimals

    like Werner put

    15/(1+1.262+.7+.85)
    15/(3.812)
    3.935

    So yours would be

    120/(1+1.3133+.7+.816)
    120/(3.8293)
    31.337

    which you got

    but they kinda did give you a choice with being able to turn off your xp. If you level to fast because of patrol xp then you just turn off your xp.

  12. I have a SS/SD Brute and I play mine just like a Scrapper, it really doesn't feel any different at all. Rage+Fury+AAO is great and you can put out some great damage.
  13. Would love to have this.

  16. You can't run SL+MG , it would take some 600% recharge which you can't get.
    I lost all my data when my computer crashed, but the best attack chain Dark Melee can run is SL+Smite+MG+Smite. To run that you need 234% recharge in MG. If you have 228% global recharge you should be able to run that attack chain easy.

    Yes you can do that, it will just lower your DPS. With using DA it will take less recharge to run the attack chain you want so it will be a cheaper build. As you said it still needs a to-hit check so sometimes it will level your melee defense open but 30% is still not bad. There is nothing wrong with using DA to soft cap your melee defense but it is not a min/max build.
  18. Welcome Back!

    Well first thing in I19 the Fitness Pool Powers are Inherent. There is some way to do it with mid's, but I don't know how to do it. So I would wait for I19 to make some upgrades to my build.

    hmm never notice it before.
  21. I would say DM, but like Werner I haven't looked into MA since the buff.
  22. Well there are two attack chains that are better. Blinding Feint -> Sweeping Strike -> Ablating Strike which I don't think I've seen anyone do but Werner said it can be done but 354% recharge in BF is crazy. The other attack chain is Blinding Feint -> Ablating Strike -> Sweeping Strike -> Ablating Strike Which requires 312% in Ablating Strike which is still a lot of recharge.

    As Claws and Effect said there is no reason to have Hasten if you can run BF->AV without it. The only thing that Hasten is going to do is take 20 end from you about every 2 mins.
  23. It will work, to make PB perma you need only 66% recharge. So even if you don't put the Recharge IO in you will still have perma PB. With most of my SRs at 50 I don't even put a Recharge IO in I put an Endurance Reduction in because my recharge bonus is high enough to make it perma. With only 67% I would still put the Recharge IO in.
  24. For level 30 my favorite place is Croatoa
