I am really enjoying this build,but not sure if I should have paired it with another set for more survivability.my damage is ok and res is outta this world but I am a tad squishy @lvl30,so should I go for s\l softcap or jus reroll plz help

ice_ember you have been a huge help thanks,and as far as fire im stuck on it for the heal and aura.def and res arent the best but im thinkin if i hit them harder and faster then i win,i do like nrgy/nrgy thats fun and wp is a god send shield is fun for sc.but they all will be reviewed and visited at some point in the future but again thanks

@ erratic i dont have tough yet but i do run cj and fire shield at all times,fire aura and plasma get turned on when needed.as far as dfb im dfb'd out,but ima run the ff arc you spoke about and see how that is. thanks alot

@ ice_ember powers are picked based on theme I'm feeling at time,so I'm very open to trying new combos to get best results.I found I like brutes more then tanks,the powers I'm thinking bout are elec melee\fire,stone\elec and dark\fire.the elec\fire and stone\elec are more fun by far but dark\fire is head and shoulders more survivable,with that said out of the 3 what is best at dealing with end game content?and I'm thinking ion or pyronic for incar powers so what do you think

@erratic I'm lvl20 and have end do's on all my moves and have stam with 2end mods

@ shadow moka I wasn't goin to start io's til 47or48,@ erratic as for toggles I'm runnin the fire shields and I don't have both end recovery moves yet jus have the one from the dark set.

I recently built a dm\fa brute and so far I'm loving it,haing probs with end due to toggles but I know that can be fixed pretty easy.but I'm not sure if there are powers I need to skip,but jus want general advice on build so I can get most from it

id ill see ill rollit and see how it is and see if its a set that meshes with my style or if i can adapt to it,thanks for all the input guys,and @ tater todd like i said in my opinion i jus dont think plant is solid on dm end i may be wrong but jus the feel i got from the very very brief time i teamed with one and played one

@ oracle i am aware that all powers have pros and cons,but out of the sets i mentioned i wanted to know what sets offered the best dam and def.and as far as your input it was a help bcuz you gave your insight on certain builds and powers.and i have been advised by alot of pple in game that the fighting pool is a must for melee guys,but i rolld 2 builds last night and both are fun as far as end game content what build is able to deal with it better elec armor/stone melee or fire aura/dark?

i was thinkng dark/fire aura for heals and end drain moves,and then shield/elec melee for spring atck+shield charge+lightning rod.but am really intrigued by both builds any ideas on how builds would work or comments as far as pros and cons

@ Oathbound i never wanted to get in the mix of things being as squishy as i am to drop melee dam ya know,but if it is best build and i its somethng good ill roll it out for a bit.and how did u miss all the other builds i asked about lol,but yea alot of pple have said elec as 2ndary wasnt good so thats out.
@ obscure blade i see what ya talking bout but idk i jus kinda wanted more range but sounds as if stone is really solid(no pun intended)but idk ill see what else is out there that could be better if anything.thnks again guys for help

i can most def see where you are comming frm with that,stone is melee heavy.what about ice/fire/elec as 2ndary wouldnt they work well?dark...well dark its not that impressive to me but ill give it a look

you always have a need for consume lol,and i love earth have a earth/therm troller.now that ive slept on it earth/earth wouldnt be bad at all but not sure if i want all that dirt flying around me lol.and @ mr todd not 1st dom but with all the changes that have been made i have a hard time keeping up(not a numbers guy so i get lost when the raise or lower powers)not a fan of plant or dark,every attempt ive made at either of themhas ended in a epic fail.plant jus dosent move me with the dam it seems really low imo,and dark shrugs it jus seems blah,earth im familar with so id be good there but ive never done ice before.so it would be a big learning process,id like a deep insight into your thoughts on a ice/fire and new contender earth/earth.thank you both btw

Lookin for most control and damage,want the most survivable guy out of the combos I've picked

ok i was really liking nrgy due to the fact it got a heal and plus the 1 ela got that would double my healing,but it is lacking in the dam area.i like aoe but i think ima roll with stone and see how it go'z,thnks for the insight

ela/nrgy has shown promise anyone with any input on that or any other builds let me know

ok u have it right and then i also was curious bout elec armor/nrgy,would that work better then elec armor/stone

ok i see where i went wrong,to corret myself i was asking about ice/ea,fire/ice,fie or stone/ea.and i was jus looking at it a lil more and was thinking what about nrgy/ea,id never take stone as armor dont want movement penilty even though it is pretty good.i know they dont hit like brutes or scraps but i have seen some nice ones out there,so now that it is more clear what i meant plz help

im new to building melee guys so i need help,i want a solid build of good def and res+damage.these were the combos i narrowed it down to,but lacking the knowledge i turn to you all for help.im not goin to farm or hunt gm's,im just going to team and solo when no teams avalible,thanks in advance

i know killing av's isnt the main point of the game but its where im going to find my enjoyment missions are old and tf's and trials are boaring,so now im going to hunt av's and try my hand at gm's as well jus to keep things entertaining and challenging.

thank u all for the suggestions and help,but would fire/mm be better then fire/ice?because i was told that that is best blaster combo for soloing,im not a big fan of ice but if it is best for soloing as a 2ndary then so be it.

was considering the thought of making a rad/ffire blaster,but wasnt sure if i wanted to.it looks very promising on paper but not sure about playability.can i get feedback on pros an cons of this build,i would want the toon to be able to solo av's if possible.please feel free to give opinions and ideas

what blaster build has the strongest aoe's?

cool thanks for the insight,any powers u think i should pass on?and is weave worth the hassle to get in the fighting powerpool

i have recently made a ar/mm blaster and want help on slotting for max dam,money is not a concern.and also thoughts on this build and what powers i should take for best solo play
