Hi, i don't want to post my build as i'm not 50 yet but just wanted to offer a few insights. This is my favourite toon so far, great AoE, really good mitigation in different ways, some you wouldn't expect either.
Energize is all it's cracked up to be, slot it for recharge and health, Power sink is a game changer and keeps your blue bar full as well as sapping your foes and combined with Lightning field, which with fury is a decent damage dealer, you can keep their blue bar almost empty which means they aren't hitting you. Performance Shifter chance for end, works great in Lightning field and will replenish your blue bar.
Elec has no defense, so IO slot for defense as much as you can, i took Soul mastery for Darkest night which really cuts down on incoming damage, much as high defense does. The knockdown effect of your mace is really important, if they're not on their feet, they're not hitting you.
Fast recharge is really what you're aiming for, keep Energize and Power sink up as much as possible, your attacks will be up constantly and so the mobs will be on their backs and Sap the buggers into oblivion.
Don't be afraid to herd with this toon once your defense is half decent, let them attack you, get your fury bar up, hit Energize, a couple of AoE's , Power sink to replenish your blue, more AoE's and they will be dead and you will have a full bar of blue and green and ready to hit the next group.
I've personally found this a great soloing toon.
The only thing to bear in mind is it's a late bloomer, quite frustrating early on but i liked that as i always had something good to look forward to. Also the sound of Mace is great as they're hit, you'll feel quite brutish.
I really hope you enjoy your new Brute, i love mine.
Dammit, i forgot to mention how great your resistance to -end is. Learn to laugh at Sappers and Mu's, you no longer need to take them out first, this is huge post 40!
Hey, I've settling on rolling a War mace/electric armor brute but there are no guides available for Brutes. Does anyone have any experience with this build? If not, how about War Mace?
Does anyone have any builds they could post?
