Nothing is worth 6-slotting since ED.

yeah OK maybe true, but are they worth having and if so how many slots shall i put in them?
Personally I haven't bothered with either.
I have:
rock armour (1 end red, 3 def)
rooted (1 end red, 3 health)
earths embrace ( 3 recharge, 2 heal, will go to 3 heal when I next get some slots)
health (1 slot, may add more not sure yet)
minerals (1 end red, only using really for pvp to see invis and cut down confuse etc)
Thats my defence, seems to be ok so far. Mind you I do have energy primary which means stacking stun is not too much of a problem for 'false' defense in terms of stopping enemies attacking especially for bosses etc.
I would have picked up the passive stone armour if I hadn't taken an extra travel power to compensate the lag of tp in the current crappy server environment, I just can't face using it as my main travel power at the moment.
To be honest I have a 39 stone tank as well, and I did take the other 2, in retrospect not sure I really needed them although they do help in larger teams. You aren't a tank though so don't need to try to be one, you want a more defensive build then sure pick them up but offense is usually the best defense for a brute, if its lying face down it ain't going to hurt you 
Cheers Wreck I will keep your build in mind

Hi guys,
just a quick question;
would any of you Stone Brutes get
Brimstone Armor and Crystal Armor?
I can see that you have Brimstone fully slotted is only 30.94% fire / cold res
and Crystal is only 20.63% Energy / Neg Energy res is it worth getting and 6 slotting?
Cheers, Lee
