    Regen help

    POST-ACTION

    So I'm playing a Steet Justice/Regen brute, but I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what I need to do with regen in the end game.

    The build I made has 614% regen w/o Instant Healing running, 1768 HP w/o DP running and 63.75% recharge w/o the spiritual Alpha slot or Hasten on. My real question is do I need to be softcapped? My build hasn't got any defense really, outside of weave. Stacking recharge and regen won't cut it for me?

    Is there anything terribly wrong with my build? I wanted decent recharge, and to be softcapped for a reasonable budget. I think the biggest question I have is if I want tough/wave or aid self. I feel I'd get more out of tough/weave because I currently play a SR scrapper who only has to rely on his self heal from the incarnate powers. Any feedback would be great.

    Can my account access the beta or do I need to do something more? I'm having a hard time finding any info on this.

    Trial Rewards

    Are the commons, uncommons, rares and very rares still based on participation? Did it get any tweaking?

    Trial Rewards

    I'm sorry I should've been more specific.

    I meant the rewards for completeing incarnate trials.

    I heard they were trying to balance out the rewards for doing trials, how well did they do on that?

    I'm just mostly confused because I thought the maintenace day was Tuesday. I purposefully waited until my day off today so I could subscribe and play this morning instead of Tuesday, haha.

    Is this just a random error or did the change the days?

    I finally get home to play CoH, I subscribe, I sit down to log in after updating and as soon as I get into the game BAM! I get the boot.

    I'm trying to figure out what my defensive goals are on willpower with my IOs. I havn't been able to find any builds on here that softcapped anything so is that not a priority on a /WP brute?

    So what SHOULD my goals be on a DM/WP brute set bonus wise?
  10. Samhain
    One last question, since the brute has higher HP does that mean he'll get a noticably bigger heal from Dark Melee?
  11. Samhain
    So basically we're saying I'm not going to get much more survivability than SR with the Shield? Maybe a DM/WP brute might be a breath of fresh air for me.
  12. Samhain
    Oh I'm certainly not looking forward to starting the incarnate trials on my mastermind now. I was reading that we get the short end of the stick on rewards too because of the participation system.
  13. Samhain
    How do the numbers on shield defense on a brute compare to a scrapper? Will the extra brute HP be a big deal?
  14. Samhain
    I'm currently finding that softcapped defense simply isn't enough with my SR scrapper. I know that the resists are supposed to go up as I take damage but it simply isn't saving me in really tough spots when I'm on my own. How different are the numbers defensively for a shield brute vs a shield scrapper?
  15. Samhain
    I'm currently playing a Kat/SR scrapper and I'm looking for something a bit more tough. I've invested alot of time and money in that scrapper but at the end of the day I know he's never going to really get any more survivable.

    So I'm looking to play something a bit more tough. I'm familiar with all the melee powersets, I've got multiples of the melee ATs to 50 and I'm pretty set on what I want this time around. I definately want Dark Melee for my offense but I'm undecided if I want to play a Brute or Scrapper and if I would prefer Willpower or Shield Defense. I'd like to know which sets perform better on which AT and which is worth the most investment.
