I am on to my next L50 project. I have a WM/WP Brute I am playing now. I looked and there is not a guide for this set which is weird. I put together a little something in mids and need any advice to make it better. TYVM!

I took a brute break after getting my claws/sr to 50 and made a fire/rad controller to 50 and I sure miss all the smashing!


I basically want as much defense as possible without gimping myself.

The build that you posted doesn't seem to be quite consistent with what you want. I don't see much IO set bonus for defense in your build. I re-slotted your build. Maybe you can treat it as a starting point.

Sorry if this is a bit of an necro, but I was looking for a WM/WP build and stumbled on this.

I like the idea of having darkenst night and the Dark AOE, so I tried to see if I could tweak Twilight Snows build at all to get closer to capped.

- Without Gladiator's Armor 3%: I balanced S/L/E/N and got them evenly to 41.4 by getting a slot from IW into Gloom to allow Siphon Insight 5pc.

- if I ever could get a hold of a GA 3%: I could move the proc choice out of Dark O and into MoB, taking S/L/EN to 44.4, painfully close to 45.

- I went for a PS proc in Stamina

Any input on tweaks... or if I am even actually going in the right direction?

Thanks! (The below is with the GA 3%)
