With Strike takes +185% recharge in Follow Up (4.22 seconds). With Swipe takes +225% recharge in Follow Up (3.70 seconds). I'm showing the Strike chain at 60 DPS and the Swipe chain at 59 DPS, but that's ignoring the Follow Up bonus.
Hmmm, looks like the Swipe chain double stacks Follow Up on everything, while the Strike chain fails to double stack Follow Up on Follow Up itself. So the Swipe chain should be better.
I'm also ignoring Fury contribution, but if I recall, faster attacks are better for Fury generation, so the Swipe chain should be a little better for that reason as well.
Edit: If you really pump the recharge, you could consider Follow Up -> Eviscerate -> Focus to save on slotting an attack and I believe do better DPS, plus do some AoE, at +274% recharge in Eviscerate. Best with a Fury of the Gladiator proc in Eviscerate, plus you'll need a bunch of purples for the recharge, so it's a really high-priced option.

Follow Up needs to come back at 3.96 seconds for that chain
Neg, Iggy... cast times are the same on brutes.
Be well, people of CoH.
Yeah didn't think so, though haven't played my claws/ea in months. Kinda kicking myself for putting it on my second account
Hey guys,
I'm building a claw/elec brute, which i know is just a close cousin to the scrapper, but i was wondering what a good attack chain is, using 4 attacks, i was thinking doing this:
FU->Focus->Slash->Swipe
which by my math requires FU to recharge in 3.33 seconds, granted, thats not factoring in arcanaville time, so my math may be off. and would replacing swipe with strike amount to more overall damage?
Whats the required recharge to met either the above chain, or replacing swipe with strike?
I'm going for mainly a recharge build, with a hint of defense to supplement the already high resistance elec can give me, I can post my current build if anyone asks, but i'm pretty sure i need to squeeze more recharge out of it first.
