Looking for a FM/FA Build

Hello, im looking for some suggestions on a nice build for a fire/fire brute. im not sure if there is thread on this already but id thought i throw it out there. i have about 2 bills to spend on some recipes or enhancements and am looking for mainly aoe dmg and extra defense or resistance so she isn't so gimpy. ive read that recharge is the way to go as well. If theres anyone that can share a mid build it will be appreciated thank you.

Hey,

Here is my "current" target build, i went with post i19.I don't have alot of the LOTGs/health IOs, but the rest is pretty close to being finished.

Its not the super uber build, but for me, it is well rounded, flexbile and fun. Over the last few issues, once i got my def into the 20s, i noticed a huge improvement in how my FA/FM brute played.He is just much more enjoyable. Lately, with i19, been adding stealth to builds, for added Def, and the ability near invisibility to stleath missions when convienent (stealth+Superspeed, near invisibility). If i don't need the extra def, i toggle off Stealth for end reasons.

Right now, on +1x4 without a lot of problems, depending on who i am fighting. The big change, with all the changes and def, I can get rid of easy farming missions, and quit avoiding specific enemy groups due to lacking protections.

This build has 4 ST attacks, and 4 AOEs for a nice mix of attacks.

I use temp protection, and the winters gift IO for additional slow resistance of 40%, which helps.

Consume now has a timed end drain resistance. Fire off consume, at the BEGINING of a fight with say carnies, and keep using consume before end drain wears off, and carnies are nothing. End Drain used to be a HUGE problem, now its not an issue.

For this build, def is melee/aoe primarily, with close to the same for S/l, all around 30 % (which is about 50-60% damage mitigation). I really didn't try to cap S/L, as alot of attacks have other components than just S/L and expect more exotic types of attacks in the future. It has base recharge of about 30+ % recharge, and if LOTGs in CJ, Weave, Stealth, it goes up to about 50+ recharge. Alternatively, u could slot Char or move slots, and slot Breath of fire.
