    Scrapper or Brute?

    POST-ACTION

    There is a post on the brute boards that shows numerical evidence that brutes outdamage scrappers, even if they have SD. He posts a number of attack chains and shows the totals, top 5 all being brutes. So, if they outdamage and out last scrappers, it goes to show that, for now, brutes are a stronger choice.

    Bumped for anything?

    I've got a new RP toon by the name of Knightflux on Virtue. I'm new to both Kinetic Melee and Shield Defense and am hoping this build is solid. I mostly solo as I work long days and can only seem to squeak on here and there.

    Build idea is that of a mystic knight that uses force magic to augment his melee and defensive abilities.

    Appreciate your time on the boards here everyone.

    I'm new to the whole Katana thing and I kind of like the "Set it and Forget it" mindset of Willpower. I'm just curious if there are any other tweaks than can be made here.
    I play predominantly PvE and I wouldn't be against handling an A/V, no one in particular, but to be able to hold my own would be nice.
