Also I looked at the Scrapper claws set and Brutes at lv 50. The Brutes one do around 20% less damage than scrappers is this working as intended? Focus does like 50% less that scraps Focus.

Scrappers don't get fury.

Brute base damage is actually higher but the brute damage modifier is lower.

In the end, brute claws is greater than scrapper claws.

In the end do you mean at 100% Fury? When does Brute Claws like Focus start out damaging scraps?

Scrap Focus: 1.64
Brute Focus: 1.96
Scrap Dam Mod: 62.562
Brute Dam Mod: 41.708
Scrap Adjusted Damage: 102.6
Brute Adjusted Damage: 81.7

Brute needs:

102.6 = 81.7*(1+X)
1+x = 1.256
x = .256

Soooo around 13 fury IF neither player has any enhancements slotted.


Be well, people of CoH.

He used "in the end" to mean after one has done the math... basically "in conclusion."

Anyone know why Focus had it's manhood clipped and stomped on in PvP? I thought maybe because it has range and that's a no no for Brutes, but look at Gloom. It totally kicks ars. Is scrapper version of Focus so completely useless is PvP? Just curious.

Oddly, the phrase sounded a little familiar, but not enough for me to come up with the reference. According to the Wiki, though, it's spelled "jawsome."

If I recall correctly, it's because damage in PvP is adjusted based on cast time for everyone. Focus has a low cast so does piddly damage.

EDIT: Which means, I guess, that focus got nerfed twice. Once for the PvE cast time adjustment and again in PvP.


Be well, people of CoH.
