    The Boot Myth

    Funny story I was invited to a full PUG with my Ice/Storm Corr by the Brute/Leader after two mishes he said "I picked you to heal us, not tank... <Kick>"

    Seconds later all but the Brute and one other dropped team sending me tells asking to team with me because "He was an A** for doing that, and your a better tank with a corr than he is with a brute" hehe

    The moral of the story ~ if you boot for not liking someones build it may backfire on you

  7. You do have a valid point... Yes it would build furry faster to run in, taunt powers ablaze. And for the record before I got to Shield Charge I did it your way to great success, but now I just get a charge out of the pop n flop he-he-hea

Those that survive the initial assault are on you like fly's on (well you know) this leads to massive damage output from your other powers for two reasons...
    The first being fury, just like every brute the more you get hit the faster it builds. I rarely ever need to use brawl to build furry.
    The second being Against all odds, the more enemies you have close to you (up to ten, which i think is the agro cap anyway) the more damage you do.

    Thus in my experience Stone/Shield equals an A** kicking good time; so my answer would be yes.

    As I hinted at above Shield Charge and Tremor go well together throw in fault and you can keep most enemies flopping like fish once you get the timing down. Not to mention all of the knock down the other stone attacks provide. If you get into a good rhythm you have all the mitigation you need to solo even given the fact that you loose one of your biggest defenses solo since phalanx fighting wont help much with out team mates near.

    Yeah SM/SD is definitely one of the biggest end hogs in the game. I have two end reducers in most of my attacks, and have stamina four slotted with performance shifter's and the Perf Shift endurance proc to compensate.

    Don't let that scare you off from trying it though. Due to how fast I build furry in combination with the Damage boost from Against all odds, most of my attacks are slotted with 2x Acc. 2x End Red. 1-2 Dam. and I do plenty of damage.

    I am also considering an elec/shield brute. Would this be a better option??
    I have a friend that swears by his, but I cant answer weather I think it is better or not for certain but we seem to have the same survivability and electric seems to have good synergy also.

    What primary goes well with /shields??
    This is just my two cents but IMHO Stone does once you handle the endurance issue.

    See that is where I remembered them being, at the top of each section, but I went to look and nada. Anyway that aside I do think I like the V-Bulletin system now that I am getting use to it.
  10. Ah cool then I shal not beat a drum that is already playing...
    Thanks Captain_Photon

    CoH/V Ranked #3 in "The List: Top 5 MMOs That Need Remakes"

    Message:
    Our beloved game has long been in the MMO news, longer even than I have personally played it myself. But in this particular article we place #3 in "The List: Top 5 MMOs That Need Remakes" posted on MMORPG.com and I think that the Red Names from Paragon studios should take the time to read it, if they have not already. The author makes some good points about the future of the game as well as some good suggestions for a sequel.

    I for one hope that Going Rouge has enough new content to win over players that we have lost as well as draw in a whole new crowd, but as is stated in that article I also think that it might be time for Paragon Studios to look into a sequel to keep our favorite gaming franchise going strong for many years to come.

    I'd like to hear your opinions regardless if they are pro, con or even those calling me a crack-pot for bringing this up in the first place... As long as at least one of the Dev's get wind of the article, and its underlying message.
