Any good SS/WP Brute builds/guides out there?

I've got a 50 one I'd love to respec into a decent PVP toon. I've heard SS and WP are among the more desirable powersets, but I'm largely new to post-DR PVP.

SS is good, but WP isn't that good for brutes. Tanks can make WP work out ok, but there are a lot of better options for brutes to pick from in terms of secondaries.


"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

taunt/webnades...as much HP as possible, decent recharge, and phase

more specifically what do you want your brute to do? like as in fight only other melee, fight everything, or just piss people off?

Fighting everything (a good balance) would be ideal. So Taunt for sure for the -range. Maybe Black Scorpion's aoe web nade power, although it requires a weapon draw.

Is there a reliable source for Web Grenades other than Siren's call? The odds of getting one to drop during mayhem missions are pretty slim. I don't think any of the new craftable temp powers fit the bill. And the arena version is just for arena.

This is an all purpose general PvP build for an SS/WP, I didnt put IOs cuz idk ur budget.

The build does not have haymaker, RttC, nor tough (dont need those)
The build does have Phaseshift, taunt, webnade, Heightened Senses, SoW and Aidself (you might need those at different times).

Budget is effectivly unlimited, including pvp io's. But that's a good start.
