Kain Tremere

As soon as it came up, i typed it in and the damn thing wouldn't go past "Processing". That just pissed me off.

That's bull! I put it in and it stuck on Processing... It wouldn't move.

Dammit! I thought that S was a 5 because I quick looked. Ugh...

I have the Chance for BuildUp in my Brute as well. I agree BillZ. I have it in another of my 50's. Not worth removing.

Thanks BillZ. I had a feeling I missed something. I knew there was no way that could be correct. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Now I am free to make my Brute without looking at Scrapper and going "Oh yeah?"

Been playing too long to make that mistake. lol. I should have known that.

With 90% Fury, I have Midnight Grasp hitting for 578 with Soul Drain set to 1 target. On the Scrapper, same thing- 1 target from Soul Drain, Midnight Grasp is hitting for 1010. If there is that much of a difference without Critical being factored in, then that's unbelievable.

The new build I've been working on is a Dark/Invul Brute. Yes, I said Brute in the Scrapper forum. Looking at the spreadsheet topic above, it says Brute Dark does 143.7 DPS average, and Scrapper Dark does 141.6 DPS average. Now, I created my build and compared both and by the look of it, Scrapper pretty much kicked the Brute build out of the water in terms of damage.

My question is, is this auto-factoring Critical Hit? or no? Whether Crit is toggled on or off, it doesn't show any difference in the damage. Here are the builds.

I was looking over your build here and decided to do a little work myself. Normally I don't work on Tankers, but this is actually very promising.

Max HP: 3147.018
Regen: 1111%
S/L, Elemental, and Energy DEF: Almost all soft-capped
S/L Resistance: 70.5 each

If you want extra damage at the sacrifice of a travel power, exchange Super Jump for Build Up.
