A few things, if I may:
1) Against All Odds should NOT be taken that late. It is your aggro aura, and you are going to miss having it as a Tanker, and your team is especially going to miss you have it considering that you're also not taking Taunt (which is fine, but it means that you'll be relying on Gauntlet and your aggro aura to hold aggro). Take this much earlier.
2) Ice Patch is definitely nice to have, but if you have enough mitigation elsewhere, then you don't particularly need it. However, it can make a decent difference in survivability, especially in the mid levels before you start really putting in IOs.
3) Hasten can be put off some levels. You've pushed back a lot of great powers to fit that in so early.
4) Phalanx Fighting is a great early-level power. It's a straight-up 5% Defense power to stack with your other Defenses, and is free to run. If you've got a teammate nearby, it goes up! I'd say try to get that earlier if you can.
5) True Grit: you are overslotting this power for the +HP effect, and not slotting it at all for the Resistance. Any reason why?
6) You can put off Build Up for a while to fit other things in earlier. Your damage isn't great anyways. Might as well work on other things first.
7) Without seeing the full numbers, it looks like you'll be over the 45% Soft Cap for Melee defense, but under it for Ranged and AoE Defense. You may want to switch around some sets to shore up your Ranged and AoE Defense values to bring them up to 45%.
8) Deflection, your basic Melee Defense shield, seems underslotted for DefBuff. I'd add another slot to it.
9) I think that your choice of Ancillary Power pool powers are fine. Ice Storm probably won't go with your build that well, but Fireball could be a great power for you to help with your damage. Since you've got few good single-target attacks, Fire Blast is another good choice.
1) I'll switch AAO with Hasten. I should have mentioned that this is a post 50 build plan, though.
2) I was thinking pretty much the same thing.
3) Hasten moved to 49 for now.
4) Build up and Phalanx Fighting reversed.
5) It's a choice between about 30hp or 8% more resistance to the elements. I guess I just prefer as much hp as possible, lol. Went with Miracle for the recovery and hp bonuses.
6) Alright I moved down a few.
7-8) Currently I'm at 50.36% Melee, 46.12% Ranged and 47.99% AoE. My melee defense looks pretty good so I don't see a reason to add another slot to Deflection. This is also with Phalanx Fighting's slider set to 0.
9) I thought the same thing. Ice would look pretty good with my secondary, but oh well. I'll just make my Fire Ball blue next issue and tell myself it's 'Ice Ball', lol.

I want to try out Ice Melee and I've put together a build I think could be pretty good. I've heard Ice Melee has poor ST damage so it was paired with SD. I plan to PvE with this one. Team and solo. Arctic mastery looks like a nice choice, but without some kind of AoE Immob, Ice Storm would drive me crazy. Ice Patch is an option, but I couldn't find a way to fit it in. Maybe I missed something? Would Ice Patch even contain the enemy long enough for Ice Storm to finish? Oh and Fire Blast over Melt Armor? If there's anything else I could change or move around, let me know. Thanks.

This next issue really is turning out to be pretty sweet! Now if it's like the Tankers Mastery, it might take some work to find 3 powers to give up just to get Fireball.. :\

I would not slot Kinetic Combat in all my attacks. If you really want to keep them in there, then at least remove the procs and replace them with Dam/Acc HOs.

Regeneration

Just from quickly glancing.. Fiery Embrace, Burn and Ball Lightning are all in need of some love.
Edit: Could use more recharge bonus, too. -

I think that while it could work for pure fire AE enemies, everything else is going to tear that build to shreds.
-
Ah, well if you're not worried about KB protection then lose the Steadfast in Plasma and throw it there. You'll lose a little HP but it won't really matter.
Edit: You also have the option to lose SJ, pick up Temp Protection and slot it there while retaining KB protection and HP. -
Is that the build I posted or did you change a few things around?
-
If you wanted some Defense, try my current build out. It is for farming only. Both Punch and Haymaker were used as set mules. It comes with solid Recharge, HP, Defense and Damage. Recovery is manageable but could be better. With Foot Stomp you can slot a 6th Obliteration for the defense bonus or throw that awesome FF Proc in. If you go the FF route, consider slotting an Arma set later on.

Quote:Same here just tested. 5 times in a row but never stacked.Originally Posted by OblivionX
That's not how it works either, well at least my in game experience contradicts that. The proc just can't stack, like if you put it in a power that recharges in less than 5 seconds, you can't get 200% recharge. I've had the proc go off 3 or 4 times in a row, using Foot Stomp and I've gotten the recharge bonus for the full 5 seconds each time. I have a fraps video I can upload to prove it.

He pointed out some stuff I forgot to mention. I have a 50 DM/SD Brute and FM/SD Scrap. The heal is so nice. Also, with the tohit debuffs stacked, you can safely solo Positron and other AVs that reduce your defense. I tried to solo Posi with my FM and it just was not gonna happen but I've done it twice with my DM. Now I can't give a direct comparison since the DM/SD is a Brute, but he does feel a bit faster sometimes. It's close call for me, though.
-
There are numerous threads about this. I believe the general consensus is that DM/SD is better when using high recharge builds. FM/SD is better when using a lower recharge build. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Hey that's not bad.
A bit light on the Ranged Defense and your clean up damage is going to be lacking (Impale and Lunge) but nice alternative build.
The only real glaring thing that I see is no Burn ... especially since you're slotting Throw Spines with Rag: Chance for KD. Also even with the slightly higher melee defense, without Burn's mitigation this build would be more prone to getting alpha'd then mine would (in very large packs).
In order to gain in rech and other bonuses, Lunge had to be ignored and Impale got to be a set mule for the time being. I've used a Spines/Regen for years and when I farmed rarely did I use Lunge. However, I do feel the hurt a little with Impale. Might test out some other sets for it. As far as Burn goes, I just can't bring myself to use it without some kind of Immob. Guess I've been spoiled with my SS/Fire, eh? The KD proc is fun and still helps a little since Spines tends to make enemies run some. Or maybe it's just Quills causing that? -
So not much love for dark? I had been looking at a DB or Kat/Dark. I haven't had an Invul for years so I will try either DB or Kat with Invul or Dark.. Might just flip a coin for each, lol.
-
Here's my build. I went for good melee defense, recov and recharge. This is a pure farming build. You would want to change Impale to a damage set and maybe Quills as well. You also have a free slot to toy around with that is currently used in Throw Spines for the KB proc. I would probably move it to Temp Protection and slot another Steadfast for KB protection and a Recovery bonus if I was going to be doing more than just farming. I completed this build around double Influence weekend and it works like a champ.

I love Scraps and Brutes. This past month I have created an army of Brutes and enjoyed leveling each one. Now it's time to make a few Scrappers. I have a 50 Spines/Regen, Spines/Fire, BS/WP, Claws/SR and FM/SD. Any suggestions for a new Scrap? I PvE only now thanks to the 'improvements' to PvP. I like to solo AVs, Farm, and run AE/TFs. I have never tried DB, MA or Kat. I also have not tried DA or Invul for Scrappers. I have a 50 DM/SD Brute and that is one combo that I keep thinking about. So many people on the forums say how great it is for Scrappers. If anyone has a sick combo let me know!
Edit: Money is not an issue so if it requires a lot of influence to pull off, that's cool. -
Think I've replaced my Spines/Regen with a new favorite Scrapper. I just got the 4 Accolades for HP/End and fully IO'd him out! Soloed Hro'Something and Chimera at the same time without Inspirs/Temps and he can farm too! Chimera was easy.. all he did was use a bow and arrow. Btw, I plan to respec out of CP for OwtS.
-
Thanks! I like the new Foot Stomp.
-
Remove the Numina +Regen/Recov and Regen Tissue +Regen from True Grit and replace with Numina Heal/End and Heal/Rech.
-
That's what my EM/Regen Stalker felt like.. until pvp doom came along.
-
Grats! Did the same thing with my FM/SD last night. Took down Hro'Dtohz and Black Scorp, though.
Edit: And yeah, DM/SD is awesome for AVs. Used my Brute version to kill Positron. I had to use a couple inspirs for that fight.
