DB/SR: Brute or Scrapper?

I'm having some trouble deciding what AT I'd like to use for this combo. I'm not the biggest fan of being defaulted to the tanking role, so I was sort of leaning towards Scrapper. I feel completely drained after teaming with my Tanker. Are there any really good benefits from going with a Brute?

With the changes to fury you will do more damage as a scrapper but SR is much, much better on a brute than a scrapper so you will be considerably more survivable with the Brute. Those are really the only differences because playstyle will be very similar but as a Brute if you team with smarter, "better" players they will understand that a Brute is not a tank but in most PUGs you will probably find yourself having to play that tanker role so if you do that a lot you might want to go with a scrapper.

I fail to see why it would be better on a brute since soft cap is no better on a brute than a scrapper.

Higher base HP and higher HP cap. Also due to the passive resistances kicking in at 60% of that higher HP.


11 months of all-nighters, messy feeding sessions, bath fighting and realizing just how good my son's lungs work, and I am still convinced he is the crowning accomplishment in my life. What in the blue HFIL is wrong with me?
