WM/DA Brute S/L/E/N-Softcapped

Schlu · 08-26-2010 11:40 PM

Hi!

I am currently running around with a WM/DA Brute in Praetoria and I thought I could create a build for him. I chose WM because of the stun which should benefit Opressive Gloom...

Here is my build... The thing is, it will be really expensive this way. Could someone help me improve it please? I want to stay softcapped... also I'd like to get Superjump in, but I can't find a way... Else I'll have to run around with Sprint/Ninjarun which is not so bad, but... well SJ is better.

Thanks!
Schlu.

PPD: "Nothing to see here... move along... move along..."

Gruumch · 08-27-2010 10:19 AM

After looking at your build I think you have sacrificed too much to get your defense that high. One of your big problems I think will be endurance. You don't have any end reduction slotted in Dark Regen, Death Shroud, Tough, or Shatter. Yes you have ToE +end, but without end reducers it won't be enough. You are using Tough as an IO mule, but not slotting it for resists. It will bring your S/L up to 50% which is a big help. Also, why do you have laser beam eyes and not physical perfection? Physical perfection is of much more use to a DA.

It would help if you only tried to soft cap S/L defense and not worry about the rest.
