Nah they aren't too bad, pop a couple of Purples and you be fine, if you got holds use them, A good Tanker and take the aggro and just kill them with range Attacks. I think both the Romans and Vanguard do pretty big Lethal Damage to you, So get some protection why facing them.


Never play another NcSoft game, If you feel pride for our game, then it as well, I Superratz am Proud of all of you Coh people, Love, Friendship will last for a lifetime.

What are you playing? They're sissies if you've got ranged attacks. If you've got melee only, well...you'll have to adapt!

Vanguard Sword the reason why there are things like Caltrops.

They are the rare high level enemy that are safer to kill with a solo blaster than a solo scrapper.

When I finally got my controller (and my dominator) high enough both had a LOT of fun smothering them repeatedly.

Yeah, my Dominator frolicked merrily as she set them all on fire without taking a scratch. My Brute sort of ran head-first into a horrible wall of death that made stacking purple insps almost a requirement. Which was a nice change from melee characters soloing everything effortlessly and my Dom running into mez-resistant Arachnos every ten minutes.


Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.

Solo'd them on my Defender, needed help on my Scrapper: The Way of the Vanguard Sword.

True, though if you have your difficulty ramped up a bit, the missions with ambushes can be a little rough. And you still want to be careful of how they can debuff you (and you want to stay out of melee with them). You don't want to treat them lightly at all.

They were designed specifically as a foil to those high end melee AT builds that make a mockery of most of the rest of the game. Even on SOs a high level scrapper or brute has very little that actually poses a threat to them....except Vanguard Sword and a couple other things (stupid KoA and their billion caltrops!)

They are that hard for melee characters very much intentionally, because it's only fair that there be something your softcapped Electric/Shield scrapper has trouble with. Can't expect to sleepwalk through the game all the time and be impossible to kill
