I ran SS/Will for almost a year as my main. Built "wrong" traditionally lol. i built mostly for recharge, 4 purple sets, LOTGs, etc. This exacerbated the problem you mention "Rage/Godmode" dual crash. I would regularly double stack rage, sometimes triple with outside buffs if I remember right. Yet I never had a problem with end. At most i had to pop a random blue, not out of necessity, because i happened to have one and my end was below 50%. I did run fighting toggles and CJ. I really never experienced the horrendous end crashes you describe. In fact, I am looking to rebuild a SS/Will more traditionally, softcapping S/L defense because it's such a no worries straightforward "session beer" character. |

Willpower has one of the smallest crashes for "godmode". The only thing I think is easier is taking Invulnerability and NOT taking tier 9 Unstoppable. Viola, no crash. (My current build)
Invul and Will are the Brute armors i know best. Super Strength is also a big favorite of mine. I will let others point out if there are some good alternative armors they are familiar with. I might suggest looking at a Regen Scrapper. I keep flirting with them because it looks so fun from an easiness perspective, but havent delved deeply into them yet. Mainly I have yet to fall in love with a Scrapper primary. Anyways, GL.
DM/WP was the first brute I sent up to fifty, and all I can say it is a very nice combo. The -to hit fits nicely with some of the def you do get and nice resists. Also you will never run out of end with Dark Consumption and Quick Recovery, then healing with Siphon Life, Fast Healing and RTTC, nets it pretty good.
Also without much pimping it can do very well in High end TFs, cause of the excellent durability it shows.
Good thanks. I tell you what though all the recnt changes have made low level brutes real fun. I got scrapper lock from level 4.
