Farming options
597k/min on my fire/psi.
odd tactic.
worked though.
two people on the map.
Just curious how well an AOE Fortunata fits into this list? Better than a Dom but not as fast as a Brute? I can see it maybe unable to keep up with a high Fury Brute, but it should be going faster than a Dom with 2 Assaults + Follow Up + Aim running.
Prob have same issues as my Archery/Mental blaster, has the dmg and the def and the rech but no way to root the mobs :/
Consciousness: that annoying time between naps.
Umm, am I missing something? Forts get the same Roots as Brutes..
Nope not missing anything,
I'm pretty sure i was after a domi, never remember mentioning brute :P

this discussion has evolved into something broader. please stop assuming that threads must stay confined to a topic of your own choosing.

I was under the impression that the title of the
thread confined it's content, silly me eh...
Oh, and please stop assuming that you are the
be-all and end-all Mr authority of that which takes
place in the forums. Your posts litter these forums
and i am yet to see someone thank you for your
comments.

Also you can not have both aim and follow up.
Is a SS/SD Brute a viable build for farming? Got one up to lvl 24 and really don't want to do over at this point to roll a SS/Fire.
Virtue and Freedom
Hi, my name is Northman, and I am an Altoholic. No wait, I'm Lost Nova, no wait, Arc Havoc, no, Dragon Moon, no, Lord Fury......
Yes, SS/SD and SS/Fire would be my top choices.

SS/Shield would be good, but the current /Shield favorite is Elec/Shield (two teleport powers + AAO = win). SS/Shield's heavy on endurance (I've got one, I know a few others with them as well.
On an unrelated note, my SS/Fire just clocked in at 642k inf/min with two people on the team. I'm sure that could pass 700-750k if I cranked up the difficulty and my teammate was actually assisting me (i.e. a Kin) instead of just doorsitting.
"One day we all may see each other elsewhere. In Tyria, in Azeroth. We may pass each other and never know it. And that's sad. But if nothing else, we'll still have Rhode Island."
Elec/SD is much better for Scrappers than for Brutes though. For a farm SD Brute I'd still go SS.

I'll tell you one thing, if we get light control, then I'll be sporting a plant/thorn for now anyway.
Edit: I meant Electric/electric/mu, but til then, it'll be plant/thorn.
What are you guys farming? I saw someone mention Liberate but I have a feeling there are other missions out there that are better.

Most of the really high inf/min numbers are from cheatyface AE missions. In terms of non-broken farms, Liberate is about it. Some people run the Possessed Scientist boat mish, but its a little awkward and depends what kind of Scientists you get.

I have tried to run the Scientist boat mish on my Fire/Psi permadom and it's just really hard (it seems) at even +0/+8.
I tried farming a bunch of mish last night on different toons (all at +2/+8) and out of what I had available, my softcapped Elec / SD brute really did the best. But boy does he suck re single targets. 2nd best was prob my DM/SD soft-capped Scrapper. My Fire/Psi is on a different account and I couldn't test with him.

It's like whackamole with broken exp :3

Alternative, yes. The positioning would be a pain since Footstomp's massive radius means you can just plop yourself right in the middle of a spawn and go nuts.
It would work fine, just SS/FA. WM/SD would also work, just the same again, not as well as SS/SD.

Actually I have been looking at the figures, and it seems that Plant / Thorns has alot to offer.... if this was slotted for +recovery and recharge would that be a better option?
I'll post a build shortly for people to critique
