with combat jumping and weave along with the rest of the shield defense power. Normal slotting and no IO sets you have around 30% defense to all positional defenses.
Quote:
Honestly I would say from a person who leveled a SS/shield from 1-50 with SO's and stayed at 50 with SO's for a bit before jumping to IO's that the difference is pretty dramatic. If you don't plan to IO out the shield def, then you will have a rough time. I would reccomend choosing another power set.

When all hope seems to have drifted away.. and the shadows of death creep closer. Do not fear or cower.. do not make peace or seek salvation. For I will be there, supporting your movement. So give me your pain, weakness, despair, fear and doubt.. The Light will grant you another stand.
~6% from Weave
~2% from CJ
3.75% from Phalanx Fighting
~16% from Deflection/Battle Agility
Comes out to a little less than 28% before IO sets.
What about with cheap IO sets? (i.e non purples)

Only one purple set gives any sort of defense. I believe it is confuse or sleep.

Coercive Persuasion (Confusion) has 5% Ranged defense as the last set bonus. I try to take advantage on my Ninjitsu Stalkers, since the Contagious Confusion proc works so well in Blinding Powder anyway.|

I don't see how that helps a Brute much, but at least I added to my post count while pretending to address something mentioned in the thread.

If you're on a budget, at least focus on melee defense. You can get by with so-so ranged and especially AoE defense, but you're going to spend most of your time in melee, so work on that. And the Steadfast Protection +3% unique IO is mandatory, plan on getting that.
One thing that can really help is to put your bids in way early. Like now, before you start even leveling your SD. By being patient you can get your Touch of Death, Obliteration and Gaussian sets for way less than the "buy it now" prices. And bid on recipes, not IOs.
Freedom: Blazing Larb, Fiery Fulcrum, Sardan Reborn, Arctic-Frenzy, Wasabi Sam, Mr Smashtastic.
Here is a Elm/SD brute build I came up with. The two most expenisive IOs will be the Perf Shift +end and the StdFst Prot +3%, and even then you should be able to get them for no less then 20 mil (total), I have the Regen Tissue unique slotted but obviously that is not needed. The rest are fairly cheap IOs.

Kinetic Combats are anything but cheap. Not purple expensive, but I spent around 50-75mil for each set. That was over the last couple weeks.
And you can get your defense pretty close to cap with just SOs, but the build would be wonky as all hell.
IOs are your friend.
Dark Armor is like that kid you knew in school that didn't know when to shut up, and no matter how bad he got beaten down, he got right back up again and kept on talking.
Reverend: I found that for /shields, a quick and effective compromise is to just get your melee/ranged defense to about 33% or so. I believe I did this by getting a cheap touch of death set, a couple two piece zephyr sets (really cheap now if you don't get the knockdown one), and a gaussian's set. Even simpler would be just getting a steadfast protection and a gaussian's set. Once at 33%, the soft cap is a luck away.
Popping a level 1 luck every minute or so isn't really that much of an inconvenience. A tray of lucks lasts 20 minutes if you just need one every minute. As you kill things, you can turn inspirations you get into more lucks and keep going for pretty much forever.
As you rely on lucks to be very survivable, you can slowly build your character further using the inf and drops you get until you only need lucks for the rare massive debuffer. At that point, you can turn your inspirations into respites and the odd blue (presuming you also funnel money into building for +recovery). Or you can BE A MAN and turn all your inspirations into enrages.
Edit: Also, you can pretty much neglect AOE defense, unless you're placing arbitrary restrictions on yourself. I like to get my AOE defense up to 35% or so, just so that it's in one luck/small buff/phalanx saturation territory to hit the cap. In an awful lot of the game's content, there just isn't a huge threat from AOE damage.
Here's my build.
Softcapped to Melee and Ranged, decent regen. Except for the uniques and Hamis, which are absurdly expensive, it didn't really cost me that much to slot it over the course of about a week of patient bidding - I'm guessing ~200M inf (basically one lucky gold roll and the inf you naturally get on the way to 50). Depending on luck and patience and inflation since then I'm guessing ~300M inf.
It plays like magic - I easily solo spawns of 52 bosses in AE mishes and have, with insps, done crazy-*** stuff like had my team wipe around me on 2 spawns of 54 bosses and duoed them with the surviving dom, or kowabungaed into the bowl on RWZ raids and survived long enough for the rest of the raid to decide to join me.
If you have a ton of money, replace the Crushing Impact and a Positron with purple sets to help with recharge.

Well, I don't think the OP was really looking for a neato IO build, or to see our Mid's skills.
But since we all can't help ourselves, if you are gonna go, go deep.
This will run between 500mil and 1bil, depending on patience, and how lucky you are with drops.
Now, bear in mind, this is made for AoE.

Dark Armor is like that kid you knew in school that didn't know when to shut up, and no matter how bad he got beaten down, he got right back up again and kept on talking.
I'm working on an elec/SD brute now, and I was wondering what amount of defense someone could get with just the standard slotting, without bonuses from IO sets, etc. Is it even remotely close to softcap, or is this something I'm going to end up having to spend hundreds of millions on IO sets?
