  1. Caught a scent of Chocking Cloud mate
  2. Ah so scrappers get it from Recon then
  3. I know a brute that got it through Aid Self, so am happy to believe it's possible with some self heals. I guess not with Dark Regen
  4. You said, but what I'm after is that confirmation
  5. Asking this for my brute, but I figure brutes haven't been played long enough. Has anyone ever got a healing badge for using this? I know regens that have it from Recon and Dull Pain so I dont see why not, but wanted confirmation it could be done
  6. It was the white burning thing surrounded in green & black stuff
  7. Well done all who turned up. Ran it on vicious in the end and it was much fun. Two rad's were really nice on the tree too

    I'm not sure the animation time is significant, since if I use an attack chain with Shadow Maul at the end, I still have to wait for the other powers to recharge after it's finished animating, this could change with Hasten though.


    [/ QUOTE ]See, if you have gaps in your attack chain with a brute, something is definitely wrong with your build (That, or you're pre-L22)

    Gaps in attack chain, gah, brawl on auto or not?

    Anyway I've always found the best time to use SM is when there's a chance of catching more than one in it, if this means breaking the attack chain slightly it doesn't really matter, it should be easy enough to recover. I do the same thing with Breath Of Fire
  9. You could rely on your powers, its possible to solo some of the AVs with a brute if you're careful. I use Dark Regen from my secondry to keep me alive for example
  10. Well done on your second 40 mate
  11. While you're fighting boses with fire you tend to find out you've killed the group around them
  12. I think the most important thing it to find two powersets with synergy, so that the powers help each other. Will give a better all round controller than picking the most powerful primary and the most powerful secondry
  13. My best as one shotting a stalker that was lining up an AS I think............ kept quiet on that a while till he worked out who killed him

    Katana/DA

    No end reds in death shroud or CoF? I think you might want to add some their, they're your heaviest toggles by a fairly long way.

    In comparison the second end red in the shields do relatively little, if you want somewhere to get the slots from
  15. Dont think 3 confuse dur is worthwhile in AA, I'd probably slot 1 slow, 1 confuse the 3 end reds then move the 6th slot to a second end red for Chilling Embrace.

    Would also dump something for hasten, probably stealth, hasten really helps a dom if you hit it just before domination baqr is full. Its duration is slightly longer than domination, will help you get the last of the bar full and then take full advantage of the hold and damage boost

    Grav/?

    Subdue is lovely *nodding* and drain Psyche is essential. Depends how you want your powers split over control and damage, but they're two I wouldn't skip
  17. Try ice mace instead, apparently all the cool people do
  18. Grats, always a pleasure to team with you

    fire/fire

    3 damage can save more endurance than 3 end. Almost doubling base damage per hit, so half as many hits needed. For a brute this is less of an issue, but its still nice to have good damage pre fury
  20. There's nothing wrong with FA as far as I can see it, for a brute I mean. Its more heldful with FM as the primary because of the damage boost, but still a fine set in its own right
  21. Am gonna have to have this thread up when team forming, cheers.
  22. I can probably do more damage with my brute confused, but I sure cant take as much *L* I can wipe out a whole set of robots with my AoE when I'm confused

    Having said that I think Flashlite could be the worst one to be confused, I dont wanna end up terrorised
