It gives 2.275% Def on your Brute, as well as all of your other teammates.

Ok so mids is reporting incorrectly, thanks

No, it's not. It gives the Brute (self) and the team the same defense bonus, which is what it is saying.

Urrr, even that 2.28% bonus is going to be fairly significant when you're that close to the soft cap. Unless you can take another power in its place to get you over the top, it'd be worthwhile...

That is the base value. Slotted it gives you close to 3.5%.
And if you're already sitting at 40.5% that 3.5% will get you within 1% of softcap. You'd probably never even notice the difference, since you'd need to pore over a spreadsheet for quite a while to figure out how often that 1% is the difference between being hit or not.

I know but if you go to totals after it adds 4% instead of 2% thats what I meant.|

4% isnt a bad boost for a power unslotted, but 2% can be covered very easily just by using set bonuses thats what I meant.

Thats very true, I've already raised one charecter to softcap so I know this already. It just sounds better to say your at softcap than saying I'm 1% off softcap |

lol
Im trying to figure out if maneuvers would be worth placing in my build but I just want to check if mids is correct, mids states it adds 2.28% defence to self on brutes and 2.28% defence to team (unslotted) but checking the final numbers, id adds both of these to self so you get 4.56% defence unslotted.
