Recently I ran a AE mish with my lv 50 SS/WP/sm brute with all Lv 50 generic I/O's and a lev 46 ElecM/SD/bm Scrapper with Lv 20~30ish generic I/O's and it wasnt even close. My ElecM/SD hit +2/+8 mobs in 2 hits and some minor cleanup repeat. My SS/WP better slotted got ran by +1/+6. I just could not do enough damage with the SS/WP. Would a SS/Elec, Elec/SD or SS/SD brute do alot better? Or is the quick crit damage from the scrapper 2 hits without having to build fury just too much?

Take an SS/ElecArmor to RWZ and you'll farm just fine. I make about 20 mil per hour.

SC is notoriously overpowered on scrappers, so many /sd scrap farmers will be taken aback when the power is "rebalanced" in the near future. It is a bit broken on brutes and tanks too, but there will be a notable reduction of damage and recharge very soon.

If you are in AE, a SS/SD brute with a good build will probably be the best choice. ELM is better on stalkers and scrappers, but SS/SD will mop the floor with a ss/wp. No +dmg aura or just classic dmg aura hurts the kill speed of a ss/wp. It can be sturdy and safe and versatile, but if you are farming non-super high acc enemies (ie NO Nemesis) it is hard to beat SS/SD.


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."
