This, but I'd also recommend WM/* with */Fire, */Shield or */Elec.

Thanks for the input. I decided to roll a SS/Elec Brute. Could Someone maybe post what a solid farming build for SS/Elec would look like.

In all honesty with the changes to Burn you will see a better turn around with /Fire than with /Elec especially when it comes to a self heal in /Fire and a medicore one in /Elec.

I would almost certainly say SS/Fire/Mu considering the upcoming changes to Fire:

* Fiery Embrace will no longer be a damage buff, rather it will add an amount of fire damage to all attacks, which scales up with the amount of damage buff you have
* Burn no longer causes fear, but the damage is mostly frontloaded and the remaining DoT is slower, which makes it more useful if you lack an AoE immobilize
* Consume gains a small recovery buff per target, as well as resistance to endurance drain

Shield is losing one of the big reasons to use it as a farm set (i.e. Shield Charge is being lowered to a more reasonable level), and Elec is good if you're using a custom mission with energy-based mobs.
