From what I've been told in all of my threads I believe that WP, in PvE at least, is the most survivable secondary. I don't know anything about PvP because it doesn't interest me yet.

It seems that claws pairs well with everything so I just don't know what to do! I've made a Claws/WP and a Claws/Elec and I'll try to play them both evenly until I can tell if I like one more than the other. I'm not sure what other secondaries may be enjoyable. But I'm not going to go for one that requires millions of infamy, since I don't have any to spare.

I'm really interested in trying out claws but I can't decide on a proper secondary. What would you suggest Col?

I imagine WP is much more survivable and solo-able while Elec dishes out more damage. In my previous thread I saw a lot of recommendations for Claws/ and once I tried a character build I really began to like the idea. I'm just not sure what secondary to go with. All that's been recommended so far, from what I remember, was Claws/WP and Claws/Elec. Any other fun and INEXPENSIVE (my highest level is a 14 villain side...) secondaries to pair with Claws?

Hey guys, thanks for all the recommendations! I've got like 6 level 10 Brutes now. Trying to decide which one I want to keep is hard, they've all got their pros and cons.

Quote:/WP it is, then. What do you think of SS pre-32, on an inexpensive build?Originally Posted by Silver_Tooth
Sounds like you're definitely looking for something /WP. It's a pretty smooth ride from 1-50, gives you plenty of endurance with Quick Recovery, and works well on SOs or common IOs. Super Strength is king when it comes to AoE for Footstomp alone. Though you'll have to wait til 32 for that. Claws is a really decent AoE set with good single target. Fire Melee is still good. I wasn't too impressed with Elec Melee but others like it.
What makes you think DM is awesome, and what does it pair well with for a secondary?Quote:Originally Posted by Kioshi
Fire Melee is good. Nice power progression, as WP like S_T mentioned. And good end usage. Claws and DB are good in this aspect too, but not smashy at all. DM is awesome, but no significant AoE and not very smashy either. Not that Fire Melee is 'smashy' but burning people feels just as good.
Also, when you say EM is St. reliant, what does that mean? Stun?
I'll check it out, with powerset customization the hammer might actually look pretty cool. It's only Stone defense that slows your movement speed, not stone primary, right?Quote:Originally Posted by Nanook
I loved lvling my SM/WP nothing gives me that SMASH feeling like swinging the hammers or one shoting LTs with siesmic smash. The aoe is ok, tremor's animation is longer than footstomp, and fault dosn't do any damage but the knock down/stun is amazing for stoping alpha from large spawn. The single target damage is insane and the sound effects just add to the smashy goodness. Prior to lvl 20 was real hard on the blue bar but after QR and stamina (I took both) I never worry about end even on a set as bad on end as SM. -
I know it's impossible to get a straight answer, but would you say they've got a similar sized villain population? Or would I be better off rolling red on Freedom?

Preferably something viable at 50, but I'm more interested in an enjoyable leveling experience than end game for now. It seems a lot of excellent builds are only truly enjoyable once they're close to the best they can be, and before that point they suffer from severe issues like lack of Endurance, incredibly low survivability, etc. As it stands consider me a new player with no infamy to work with, so I can't solve my problems with infamy.
I love AoE, but I love a comfortable End pool more. Foot stomp + shield charge looks like an incredibly enjoyable AoE combo, but if I run out of Endurance every pull I'm going to be tearing my hair out.
Since whatever I make is, hopefully, going to end up being my first 50, I want it to be something I can farm with. I hear SS/WP is better than SS/SD for that. I also hear WP is outrageously survivable for PvE, and very easy to maintain, so I'd like to look into that.
I read guides saying SS/Elec was a good combo but I don't know if that still holds true since it was many many issues ago. If I'm choosing a secondary to supplement Endurance I'd rather it be WP anyway.
Other primaries I was considering were EM (nerfed hard I hear), Elec, Fire, (I hear both of those work better for Scrappers due to rage damage bonus not effecting fire's DoTs and electric's Lightning Rod), DM (it just doesn't seem to have enough SMASH in it for me!), and I'm up for suggestions.
Also, I'm wondering if I may prefer a Scrapper to a Brute. I just thought SS seemed like the ideal AoE set, with foot stomp being so incredible and all. If anyone wants to argue that Scrappers are better, for whatever reason, feel free to do so and I'll look into it.
Thank you for your time. -
How active is the dark side compared to the heroes? Is it about even, or do the heroes significantly outnumber them like on Freedom?

I played long ago, and I'm just getting back into things. What I'm most psyched about is experiencing the lore, all the content I've missed up until now and all the latest released stuff. Are there any Super Groups dedicated to that? Or am I just going to have to PuG them all one at a time and hope they give me enough time to pay attention to what's actually going on?
