Siolfir, your post was very helpful and informative. So, from what I'm seeing, just for pure damage, Stone and Fiery are the best (Excluding Dark because of the need for 10 targets), with Fiery using up much less EPS than Stone. Does that mean you would recommend Fiery as a build then? Or is there something else wrong with it? Also, is there any secondary that stands above others in PvE and hopefully PvP, or is it easy enough to level that I can make a just PvE character and then make one for PvP.

Is it easy enough to level a character that it would be worth it to make a Fire/Fire character for PvE to get a good feel for the game, then a SS/whatever for PvP to make a good char?

Thanks for your feedback. What is it that makes Fire and Stone better than Energy? As you can tell, I'm still really new at the game, so I still have a lot to learn. I was told that Willpower wasn't good for PVP, but would it be worth it to go WP for Energy Transfer? I can't remember, is Regen an option for Brutes?

So I'm still on the free trial, trying to decide on a final build to go before I buy the game. I recently went with Energy as the primary for the Brute, with Super Reflexes secondary. I was told to go Energy primary due to the huge and unparalleled single target damage, and then SR secondary, because of the benefit in PVP. I recently saw some posts on the forums regarding Energy not being very good though, due to some recent update. So I was wondering if Energy was still any good, and if not, what would be a good build to go? I prefer high single target damage, but I would prefer not going Stone, because my friend is doing that, and I don't want to copy builds. Any suggestions?
