Howdy guys,

While working last night, i got this idea to make a Dark Melee/SR character, so i came home, and threw a build together as both a brute, and a scrapper. Heres the Scrapper build. I'm ignoring Epics completely, so the AT wouldn't benefit from gloom, or physical perfection. I'm wondering what a good solid Pure dark melee attack chain would look like, and will this build be able to do it?

The brute build is exactly the same, with the toggles coming a little sooner, but otherwise, the same slotting. What you do guys think?

Running the numbers, it looks like with full fury, the brute will be out damaging the scrapper, until soul drain, at which point the scrapper pulls ahead. With soul drain having about a 13 seconds downtime, will the overall damage buff from soul drain for the scrapper, out weight the constant damage increase fury is giving to the brute?

mids rounds crits, to a pure 10% increase (based on the crit chance) so its a averaged out damage number.
