Broad Sword for Brutes
Everything will be proliferated in time, be patient. I waited over 3 years to roll an Arch/TA corr
I'm pretty sure that we're getting Broad Sword next. It's the most "Brutish" out of what's left.
Not anytime soon I'm afraid, with Kinetic Melee coming out w/ GR. Broadsword is still 2-3 issues away I believe, you never know though.
I would much rather have BS than KM.
Words to the wise aren't necessary- it's the stupid ones that need them.
"You're right...I forgot...being constantly at or the near the damage cap is a big turn off. Definitely not worth it."

Most would atm I believe, but we still don't have much info on KM to completely judge it

Mmm. Parry + Granite Armor. Could there be a more indestructable combination?
Weight training: Because you'll never hear someone lament "If only I were weaker, I could have saved them."
Why we don't have it yet? Because it has not been proliferated yet. Devs get to deciede what gets done so we have to wait.

Broad sword is just one of those power sets that would need major reworking to not be a bit OPed. Its like SS for scrapper, Rage+high base dmg...

Yeah, I have this one Sword and Board character concept that needs the ability to take more hits and rage. Well maybe issue 18 or 19? But I am guessing it is probably issue 20 or 21
I'd take Katana for Brutes over Broadsword anyday. When using the huge swords like the Riki sword for example, it is a very "brutish" set. Brutes do better with building fury from sets that have quick cast times like Katana. Broadsword is a Battle Ax/Mace clone and just like those two sets, it wouldn't build fury well.
If BS or Katana was proliferated, Energy Armor would need a buff even more badly than it does now, since BS would be useless with EA, because the defense bonus of parry wouldn't combine with your existing defenses.

Ideal world I'd love to see both happen so everyone's happy.
But new stuff is always awesome.
50s:
White Valkyrie - BS/Regen Scrap
Fear of Silence - Ninja/Dark MM
Corporate Zombie - Necro/Poison MM
Ardent Cataclysm - Stone/Fire Tank
Angelic Heart - Peacebringer
Maelstrom - Elec/Elec Brute
Novastar - Energy/Fire Blaster
KM just doesn't have the Brute "Feel" for me. Yeah their weapons look nifty, but the style is more elegant, and suited flavor wise for scrappers and stalkers.
Now Broad Sword, that is serious hacking action, perfect for a brute.
OK we have Broad Swords for stalkers but none for Brutes? Can someone explain to me why we don't have Broad Swords for brutes?
