Hi all, I am thinking of making a new Brute that is as far away from my other Brute Exile as pos (SS/Invin). So I was thinking DM/Fire I thought with lots of AOE two heals and two stam drain powers this might be a fun build.

Does anyone have any experance of playing a DM/Fire Brute could you let me know how it went, also if anyone has a surgested build it would be a big help as I do not have any fire toons and want to make sure I get the right powers.
Thank again all.

Thx Steel will look forward to seeing your build I had a crack on Mids Looks like it could be a nice combo how are you finding playing a DM/Fire Brute?

My DM/FA is so much fun I refuse to team with her. Having two end recovery powers that are also AoEs and a damage shield make her great for large groups. I really don't have any plans to fight AVs with her, but I've yet to run into an EB she couldn't handle.

I did make Tough a priority, I think I had it by the mid or late 20s.

I have planned a DM/Fire brute for the last two years on and off. I love the thought of it having such great utility and also quick recharging attacks -- but -- I just haven't gotten around to making one having both a Fire/ tank and /Fire brute. At what point is there too much Fiery Aura? Never??

I don't know, but I say go for it and lemme know what your feedback is late game

I can post a rough build of what I'd take powers-wise if you'd like.

First allow me to preface this by saying that I've been gone for a year or more and I've only recently returned. I'm not sure what changes there've been nor how on par I am. I took Blazing Aura later than I'd like and Burn at 47 once Cone Immob is available. You can go w/ Elec Fences or whatever it's called as well, it may be a better choice. Here's a rough outline of what I would sort of plan for...

I'm no Brute expert but here is a relatively cheap build I plan on getting. I frankenslotted Siphon Life in order to get the most out of it and slotted for as much recharge as I can (without purples). It really wish I could put more slots in some powers but overall I think it works well.
