DB/Will Brute - 4 slotting Kinetic Combat?

Figured I would load up on the Smash/Lethal defense... and 6-slotting AoE attacks with Sirroco's Dervish for the Fire/Cold benefits...

Good, right? This is my first run at IO'ing out a Brute.

Very helpful, thanks.

My current build has me at 29.7% for smash, lethal, energy, neg energy... 31.8% defense vs. psi... and 36.9% defense vs. fire and cold according to Mids - and not counting the PvP defense bonus.

That's in addition to the various damage resistances and a minimum of 572% regen. Just looking for ways to improve on that.

it's a good plan. use smashing haymaker until you can find all the kinetic combat sets. they are hard to find since everyone wants 'em.

Now that is more helpfull with actual numbers instead of just posting your basic idea. Yes that is quite good for S/L def. The regen is a bit low but probably not an issue with decent defense numbers. Without posting a build I would have no way to say how to improve it however.

the regen is not bad depending on your health pool. with one target in range my sm/wp has 673% regen, and with all the slotting i did for +hp that turns into 64 hp/s with one target in range

Okay, here's the build as I have it now... any thoughts would be most welcome. That's got me to about 613% regen with one foe in range and +12.8% hit points in addition to the defenses stated above.
