Dark Melee has a Fear wich is near unreristed, can stack multiple -accuracy debuff. The burst damage is so so though.
Energy Melee is often favored for people who like to PvP, because it has energy damage wich is one of the less resisted damage, can stack disorients and two extreme damage attack.
Super Strength has rage wich is different from other set "build up", you can run it perma with 3 SO in it. I don't have the number at hands but it does greatly increase your accurady and your damage output while it is active. So much that you can chose not to slot your attacks with accuracy (in PvE) to give you an idea. It comes with a cost however, a 10second crash where you can only affect yourself (ie healing power and such) and a heavy end cost once it wears off (roughly 1/3 of your endurance bar). But as a Super Strength Brute, i can honestly say it is worth it. Super Strenght has also a Hold with Knockout Blow wich is the only extrem damage of the set. Most SS attacks can knockdown your foe (knocback on lesser foes).
Fire, not so great in PvP. Whereas other sets have Knockdown, accuracy debuff, disorients Fire has damage over time wich is not the best if you want to take down your enemy as fast as possible. I'm not familiar with this set however so someone might be able to give more information.
Stone Melee, definitly one of the most smashtastic set. Waving your hammer at people is just fun. However it only deals smashing damage like Super Strentgth wich is greatly resisted in PvP. It has a lot of knockdowns like Super Strength, both sets are actully quite similar in terms of damage output. Stone melee does have a ranged -fly wich is great to bring flying foe from afar (super strength also have one).
Electric Melee, well i only toyed with one on test server a while back. No too familiar with the set. Its energy damage so its a good choice for PvP i'd say.
DA has fear resistance. So ToF is not unresisted 
Elec is like EN, with less damage and less status effects (for single target at least)

I would suggest SS if youre planning to fight in RV: the to hit of Rage(50% unslotted) is real handy in there.
Bad side is: when Rage wears off your defense and resistances drops a LOT so you basically become a defense-debuffed petless mastermind with dull-pain who cannot attack for 10 sc.
Sturmovik,
Please can you tell me how you have slotted your 'Rage'?
Cheers.
I have it 6 slotted, 3 recharge reduction & 3 To Hit Buff. Though 2 To Hit Buff should be enough. If you are Invulnerability armor, you can also slot invicibility with To Hit Buff, they do stack.
I'm gonna take this brute build for RV pvp ElecM/ElecA
