With armors and cloak of darkness you can only see a black cloud.
Bah thats not much fun at all...
How about without cloack of darkness (not going the stealth route)?
Looks pretty hideous without Cloack Of Darkness to cover it all up TBH

Eeeek...
Well looks like project claws/dark replaced by claws/SR then....
Hellfire its hard to get a good team based scrapper build

Any high level DA scrappers... do you (as I suspect) just turn into a ball of darkness once three or four (or more) armours are running?

Here's a classic screenshot of my /DA scrapper from time he still had Cloak of Darkness.
--
Tenebra 50 dark/dark/dark scrapper
Reactor Core 50 rad/rad/psy defender
Midnight Thunder 33 MA/regen scrapper
Forked Tongue 25 fire/cold corruptor
Bah!
Well guess that rules out dark armour for me. Much as the set looks fun, I dont fancy playing Genericdarkblob128!
Here you go
The only way to make your dark armour differ from anothers - is through the auras (lvl30) - and as you can see, it aint much. The greenish aspect is the aura..
eeeeek
thankyou everyone for completely putting me off a da scrap
I think... that it should be fair to point out that those screenshots are basically just Cloak of Darkness.
Cloak of Darkness makes you slightly dark, and removes your character model from the screen. If you don't run it, you're not invisible (stealth for the pedantic 
- invisible on screen).
It is a great power though for stealthing things, gives you a defence buff, and provides immobilisation protection (which if you are immobd you can toggle it on and run around then turn it off again if you please).
Cloak of darkness + Superspeed = Invisible. You can stand next to almost any enemy and not be noticed (ignoring the drones/sniper/GM aspect that all invisibilities deal with - although Illusion controllers with Superior invis can dance in the midst of Lusca's tentacles ).
If I remember to, I will post a shot of my /DA running all his shields except Cloak of Darkness, for you to compare with. I have a mate who doesn't run Cloak of Darkness because he likes the look of his toon. I don't run it when teamed with squishies (squishier than I, heh) because I want to be noticed, over them.
Maybe someone else can post the pic before me. That would be fine also.
Don't give up on /DA. It's a great set even with the knockback problems 
.
I haven't rolled a /Regen, and given the fact that 90%ish of scrappers always appear to be /Regen, I'm in no rush.
Shrug.
Bah my fire attacks make my brute always be noticed, I be a spines DA is never ignored either

One of the things i hate about my Katana/Dark armour scrapper is when Cloak of Darkness is running my katana disappears so i'm swinging around and hitting foes with nothingness.
Your absoulutely right - I run about in Cloak Of Darkness so much, I forget its optional 
Here - without CoD
A big difference
Ah, very nice, thanks for that Spacedog, backs me up a fair amount I think 
So I guess in summary, you can optionally turn yourself into another black smudge on the map if you wanted!
I do love to see Scrappers playing non-regen. I really can't get into that gyroscope-shaped greenness emanating from somewhere around their gall bladder... It just doesn't look right!
Shrug
On the plus side you could forget your toon was then using it left handed and therefor entirely wrong

Im thinking of rolling a dark armour scrapper because I want to try a team-based scrapper and It seems to me with a damage aura, and 2 AoE control type powers, dark armour fits the bill.
However, Im very concerned that even with murky cloud and the first shield Im turning into a black wisp...
