Isn't it Kick that has a faster recharge time, and Boxing that has a faster animation time? It's been a while since I played with Kick, that said.

Has anyone tried Flurry with Fury. I know it counts as one attack but I wonder what the damage per blow would be? Could it be a poor mans Shadow Maul?

Flurry being all smashing damage, I think you're on to something there

What's all this talk of flurry? It's a pants attack, especailly so for building Fury - it has a rediculous animation time, and does pants damage. Since it's only one attack, it won't help building fury much, and the animation time might even lose you some.

the best way to boost up your fury? a */fire or */dark armour brute. find a large group, jump into them with your PBAoE toggle attack, and dish out the pain! i find puting 2 accuracies and 1 end reduction enhancers into it makes it a great power. hmm, which brute has the most amount of AoE attacks? hmmmm. and i find that if you keep up a good cycle, you can take out your enemies in one hit.
the highest level one i have go is a level 6 dark/dark brute which, with fury nearly full, can take out a large group of blues just by jumping into them. ahh, PBAoE one hit wonder, perfect.
great fun seeing all of them falling over with the ragdoll at the same time, syncronised face-planting!

I just wondered what your damage per blow would be with flurry with a decent Fury boost. I've never had it myself but I wonder if it is a cone attack like Shadow Maul it could be a good minion hoover.

If it's any help in comparison... 6-slotted +2 SOs Flurry wasn't too bad . It's a single target too .
Cant really see flurry being any use what so ever to be honest, there are plenty more attacks in the secondary better (in fact I would go so far as to say any damaging secondary from any of the sets has more uses) and if its flurry or hasten I konw which one I would pick. Flurry, terrible animation time, not great damage (and its smash leathal, probably lowers your fury by as much as it raises it by if not more with its total time) or hasten which even 1 slotted when you need to really lay the smack down boosts your dps by a large amount and sends your fury potentially much higher.
Fury is great PvE, can't see it being much use in PvP, sure there will be odd occassions it gets going but as a rule can't see it getting past about 1/2 way for most situations on a good day. PvP is too stop start and potentially leathal to you if you keep on slugging, and if you have that many other players going at you at once to really ramp it up quickly chances are you will be pretty dead soon anyway :P Still, we should at least be getting some boost to damage in PvP by it being there which is never bad, you just won't be able to keep it going so easily or keep it anywhere near as consitantly high.

I'm pretty sure I remember reading patch notes in beta saying auras weren't supposed to build fury, and that was being removed... gonna test that and report back.
OK, seems auras don't build fury... however I guess being beaten on by multiple enemies does, if that's what you were getting at. I'd think a Fire/Fire brute would be a pretty awesome AoE machine in that vein

Yep 100% right only click attacks generate fury
So Mud pots wouldn't help generate fury either?
Damn, I've really messed this build up Too much like a Tanker when I should be thinking/building like a Scrapper.

Don't worry its still useful, the damage done by the aura is increased with fury. But the arua itself doesn't increase fury. However it does cause aggro, which makes fury. But unless you have been buffed to the limits don't expect to be able to tank (to any degree)

if u go back to earlier quotes u find that the idea is to save endurance whilst building up a fury , most of the powers in the pool are high end and fairly longissh recharge .flurry on auto will activate every other attack, saving u a whole lot of endurance whilst building a fairly reasonble fury .
as for me i recomend it . the brawl tip worked , that now been replaced by the flurry , no doubt later on flurry will be respectted out , if a better option comes up
can also recomend reading all the posts b4 jumping on a band wagon to which ur only half informed

I did real the whole post, my comments are entirely relevant on the issue of building rage, but the enforced endurance rest while the animation plays out isn't something I considered. Mind you, on my dark scrapper, if I get stuck in that animation and want/need to do something else I find it highly annoying and occasionally deadly.

Yeah with Brutes its easy to think of them as the COV tank, as many of the power sets are re-ordered and tweaked tank sets where is in reality it plays much more like a scrapper.
Mud pots is handy though, the damage will ramp up. Pop an insperation or so with a stone brute and with around 6 white minions around me by the time I get around to clobbering the last one its almost dead from mud pots. Having said that, Im not using it too much yet on mine as I don't have mud pots slotted. It is a good power though, I tend to use it solo on the numerous missions where you have to kill a boss before he escapes, keeps him nicely slowed while you clobber him. Also will be handy in PvP to stop pesky stalkers sneaking up on you in somewere like warburg (not that there aren't ways around it, but it will help). It can also be a nice power to stack with a some of the ice sets from other AT's in teams, getting enemies to the slow caps to set them up for aoe effects.
It may have its uses but it'll be gone after my level 24 respec. Not a great power for Brutes with far too much endurance drain.
