you get shatter armor, and better ranged attacks than the ones in the bane powers, with Mace Mastery. I took it, it's fitting, no redraw either. Mace has my thumbs up for Banes.
I'm all about Banes and when it comes to PPPs, I agree Black Scorpion's Mace Mastery is hands down the best pick. Someone must've heard my desire for Banes to have even more offense, because Shatter Armor came along soon after, giving Banes two big hitters, and yet another source of -Res.
I think including IO procs, Banes are up to 6 sources of 20% -Res (Surveillance; Surveillance proc; Venom Grenade; Poisonous Ray proc; Crowd Control proc; Shatter Armor). That's truly fantastic.
Banes are far and away my favorite VEAT and one of my favorite Archetypes. Really, really nice!

Been digging through forums and have seen a lot of questions on whether it's even worthwhile to take a PPP for a Bane. However, I haven't spotted a comparison of each of the sets with a quick pro/con for each. Any thoughts would be welcome.
