Hi guys,

I'm playing a lvl28 FA/EA Brute and for my next power I'm thinking bout Weave (got tough by now and love it), but in my Sec. set I also have Energy Cloak.

I've read on the US forums it has something between 5-7.5% defense, but what's better? Weave ot Energy Cloak?

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

Weave for a scrapper has a base of 3.75 and it a very expensive toggle ( 0.42 end per second pre ED ).

If energy cloak is like Cloak of Darkness then it has the same base but is probably cheaper to run and has +stealth.


@Unthing ... Mostly on Union.

For the most part the game is designed so primary power > secondary power > pool power. Ergo the Cloak is probably better.


I really should do something about this signature.

Except Energy Cloack is a +Stealth power too. Weave is only a +Def power, so it might be better.

Must check both +Def bonus AND End Cost... Someone has numbers for both?
