I would like a regular spot with my main, a SS/Elec Brute. Count me in during the week and sometimes on weekends. Every SF.
-
My experience with AV fights showed me that it is possible to keep the Fury bar around 90-100%. I use my main, a SS/Elec.
What's the Critical Strike chance against an AV?
So it's a matter of keeping the dps up, according to the post above. Using Power Sink from my Elec Armor allows me to fight forever. I believe Dark Consumption from Dark Melee could do the trick too, although it has an Accuracy check. -
Using 3 Damage SOs:
- Scrappers attacks deal more damage than Brutes
- With full Fury Brutes deal roughly 20% the Scrappers
- Now apply the Critical Hits. -

I chose Ice Melee for concept and the Hold. Plus, the attack form the primary fills the gap of a decent Tier 9 in the Secondary.

Their's nothing wrong with the Tier 9 in Ice Melee - Frozen Aura does the same damage as Footstomp and its all Cold which is less resisted than most damage types.

My mistake, sorry. Although I prefer Footstomp because of Rage and Knockback. The sleep component is terrible while teaming. -
Well, DM/SR is a nice combo, good synersy, but won't defeat an AV.
DM has low DPS, SR won't hold an AV from hitting you.
It's all about resistance -
My first 50 is a Fire/Fire Brute. I disagree with you: he's terrible against AVs. Even with Fiery Embrace. My main, a SS, kills EBs fast, but then I agree with you, his smashing damage isn't enough to defeat an AV.
Perhaps I should take the dust off my Fire Brute and test again, but I have never killed one with him. Or I sucked when I used to play it lol -
I thought the same thing when I leveled my main, a SS/Elec. Guess what? It worked. STs from your primary (+ any from Power Pools like AS or PPPs) + Hasten + LR + Power Sink + Rage = Huge, unstoppable ST DPS. But with 2 End crashs and no Heals (unless you get Aid Self like I did).
I leveled a DM/SR Stalker some time ago. It was very good, I was usually over the def cap and Siphon Life worked as a Heal. Plus, you get a +rech power, raising your DPS. If SR was released for Brutes before Stalkers got DM, I would be leveling the same combo you suggested.
BTW, I deleted my Stalker. But that's because I didn't like the AT lol -
Ah yes, you're right. My whole playstyle is defined by this power. And it's frikken red!
And Slot-friendly. 3 Heals is enough IMO. -
It's not quite superior. Pain Domination, even if it were available as a primary, would never surpress Empathy in healing. But on the other hand, we can buff damage way better and grant resistance to all.
While fighting, I start with Share Pain on the Brute or whoever takes the Alpha and then attack for 15s before I use Share Pain again on someone badly injured that I didn't heal on purpose.
Of course, at distance. -
Hello all
I would like to trade 11m influence for 11m infamy. Is there anyone who wanna help? -
Hello all
I wanna transfer 11m Influence to a Hero and get in turn 11m on one of my Villains.
Does anyone wanna help? -

I would like that too, dont wanna leave my main behind.

Londoner, Cynic, I've played with you before. Thorny Devil, I remember you too! Masta mate, how are you doing!?
It's good to be back. Lots of fun! -
It surely does, but the main difference is that the damage buff is constant
-
Let's see if I got this straight:
Share Pain gives me a 25% Dam Buff after a massive ST heal, but leaves me unable to recieve any heals (including mine) and also damages me. Soothing Aura won't help me.
There's also a regeneration debuff, I'll be able to count only on Health for example.
My point: running Share Pain 100% of the time will add a nice damage boost but will eventually kill me. It's possible to stack it 2 times, which would grant a 50% damage bonus but halt any healing or regeneration.
In other words: a power that will let me die slowly while killing everything around me. Very poetic. I can already imagine /Pain Corruptors using this strategy and stop right before health is critical only to heal themselves.
Or I might be totally wrong; -
Thanks a lot!
Perfect for planning my new /Pain alt -
I hope they add Tesla Cage because of my SS Brute. But it would be OP. Short Circuit makes sense but it's not that useful for a Brute IMO. Preventing enemies from attacking = less Fury = less damage.
Perhaps EM Pulse? Elec Blasters are getting Power Surge at lvl 44, I think it would be balanced. -
Hello all
People used to know me as Fu Leng or Promethean. I'm back after a 6 months hiatus and leveling a /Pain Corr.
My old SG is quite dead and I don't know who is still here. But anyway, I missed the game and I hope to have fun again.
Cheers
