The main problem with FM DA is that the sets have absolutely no synergy. DA is a set that shines with synergy from the primary, without it it's pretty rough.
The look of FM DA is basically what is awesome, you're the friggin smoke monster going from mob to mob setting people on fire.
Other than that it can be a painful experience to level one up.
I did have a build that focused on stacking Cloak of Fear with Invoke panic which was extremely expensive and still sufferred fom the CoF low accuraccy. Even that is better achieved through other primaries besides FA.
I was going to work on a katana/wp I have that build was going to focus on living a long long time just for fun.I may add this to my list of scrappers to build and see how hard I can push the build. I will need another project until kinetic melee comes out my db/eia is at 42 and I am starting his IO build

Exactly. Here is a build I like, that I built to try to help Silas. Good defense, good recovery. Uses purples because he asked but you don't need to. You might wanna check out the entire thread because I say some things about the playstyle of /DA (Fire Melee is just damage - but AWESOME damage - no need for discussion), some of it is about farming but I think there's useful info there - now the build:|

For Example: Fm/SR plays just fine, SR gets miniscule benefit from the primary and the -tohit in DM is usually overkill for SR.
As I said in my post, DA shines with synergy, without it it's... run of the mill
Both SM and DM have great tool that help DA immensely, a SS/DA, DM/DA or an SM/DA is orders of magnitude more survivable than most other /DA's (in my play experience).

Actually I am looking at an IO build right now putting me at 34% to all three positions which is better than I could do with my elec build and there is a s synergy. |

So I've been browsing the forums and was considering making a FM/DA scrapper, but I can't seem to find anyone else whose made this on the forums. I was just wondering if there was any reason for this?
Also would anyone mind helping me out with these two sets, have read about both of them seperate, but don't even know where to begin with them together.
