Invu VS Energy Armor

Hello all and thanks for reading,

i have an EM/DA brute and i would like to make a SS one, question is, invu or Energy Armor?

looking at the two, overload > unstoppable due to the reason that overload doesnt put u'r health down when the time is up,

the defence of Energy Armor from Knockback and imob seems better also, because it doesnt lower your Defence rate..

so what are the strenghts of Invu over Energy Armor?
and what set do you think is the better one between the two?

thanks for your time and opinions

Hiya.

All depends on what you want to achieve. I picked a pure EM/EA Brute and love her to bits. I play PvE and PvP in teams or solo and I find the Energy combination to be superb. The ability to stealth as a Brute until you're right up amongst the enemy is a great bonus...

The Basic shields (Kinetic shield, Dampening Field, Power Shield, Entropy Shield and Energy Protection) are fine. I usually run all of these permanently except the Power Shield.

Energy Cloak = Stealth +DEF.. I like this but dont use it all the time.

Energy drain is a fantastic way to gain back all your endurance, thus keeping all that lovely Fury..

Conserve Power...great way to have a large attack chain with minimal endurance cost (great combined with Hasten)

Not seen Overload to comment on...

All-in-all, a great set of armour.

The important difference is that Invun gives a high resistance to smashing and lethal damage, whereas EA is a largly defense based set. Defense reduces the chance that the mobs will hit you, whereas resistance reduces the damage you take.

Invun also has a self heal/hp boost available quite early.


I really should do something about this signature.
