Shocking and Disorienting? But really, it should be a fun set. Currently there are several threads up on Electric Armor and more than a few on War Mace. I'd read through those and see what you think. You'll probably have to parse out what you want or what interests you build wise, but all-in-all it should be a solid combo.
Electric Armor will help add to damage with Lightning Field and keep the mobs drained of Endurance with Power Sink. Mace will do good damage as-well-as adding it's Disorient for additional mitigation. Your two big attacks come at 35 and 38 (although I do enjoy watching goons sail upward when using Jawbreaker, which I would recommend taking) and you'll get your first AoE at 28.
I tend to take all the powers in Electric Armor except Power Surge (I don't like the crash at the end. If you're into the uber buff powers, go for it). My Macer is too low for me to really give much advice on, but I probably won't be taking Clobber (it is a Mag 3 Stun so I could see an argument in favor of it). Take the Fighting Power Pool for Tough (and Weave if you decide to go that route). I'd take Hasten to stack with Lightning Reflexes and to push Electric Aromor's Set inherent Recharge advantage, and the Fitness Pool (unless you're willing to try a more advanced/expensive build).

Take Clobber, you'll really like it. It was buffed a couple of issues ago and the damage was increased while the stun duration was reduced. Now clobber is the most damaging single target attack in the set. The stun is just an added extra that lasts for about 6 seconds. So just slot it up for damage first and maybe throw in a couple of dam/mez HO's at lvl 50.

Great info Sheline, I knew they had buffed the set, but didn't realize what they had done with Clobber. Looks like it still has the Mag 3 stun, so with the buffed damage, I'd agree it's a must take power (I'll have to respec my Macer....).

Oh, definitely take Clobber. IMO, it's now tied with Crowd Control as the best attack in the set.
Being able to stun minions and lts at will is extremely useful, and since it's also a quick attack and does a ton of damage, what's not to love?

I was wondering how the electric/mace combo does? I've done a bit of searching and haven't found any topics about this set.
I've always avoided mace in the past but now i've looked at the numbers on the mace set and it's a heavy hitter now (which suprised me cuz I haven't played for a while).
Does anyone have any advice for this build or any guides I can look at?
Thanks.
