What patron for a fire/fire brute ?
All the patron pools for Brutes include an AoE Immobilize. I'm going for Mu mastery with Red Rag. It's AoE Immob is Electrifying fences and Mu lightning has a chance for +End.

VIGILANCE Captain Caledonia 20 - Yeah, I made toons on the French server coz we only had 4 back then (might have to transfer/recreate them on one of the US servers)
..and many more!
I had the same though. AoE Immob from Mace and Burn = Win.
Wrong. The animation time getting the mace out and actually firing it off is waaay too long. I got fed up with it and now just live without it. I don't actually have any of the patron powers in my build due to the horrid animation time.
I mainly use my brute for farming these days against Nemesis, and there are so many of them, a burn patch and a fire sword circle can kill everything in range Don't need the immob to keep 'em hanging around IMO.
I got Mu on mine, the aoe immob is a radial one (circular) as opposed to a cone on the others that don't require a weapon draw, which suits burn better and requires you to position yourself less in a fight before you drop burn. It's always used at pointblank range just before I drop a burn patch and FSC.

Exactly what I was thinking of doing.

Thanks guys i went for Scirocco, cant wait to pick up electrifying fences and see all those pretty numbers flying out of the mobs heads, is ball lightning worth picking up for even more aoe damage ?
I think it is, others might have a differant opinion, a lot of it's damage is DoT, but that fits in nicely with a fire/fire anyway. It's really nice when you have got a lot of fury going though
Anything goes with /Fire to be honest, but if you're farming probably the best idea is Mu. Gives a good extra AoE to shove in your attack chain.
However, I went for Mace, for concept and PvP. And yeah, the animation time can get annoying if you bother to take the attacks (which you shouldn't) but I have it just one slotted with an Immob (I don't need accuracies with Rage...) and chuck it in while jumping to the centre of the mob, keeping them locked in Burn. Works perfectly, and you also get the added bonus of being able to whack people with it by using Brawl
Go Black Scorpion for a good farming mission. Roll call Nemesis... many many mobs.

Ok so i just hit 40 on my fire/fire brute and now have access to the patron power pools, but i dont know which patron to choose ?
Can any fire/fire brutes out there help me out, looking for something to help with Burn and maybe add a bit more aoe damage.
Many thanks Twisted
