I think claws is one of those "Anything goes" type primary powers. I went dark on one, but I don't care for the animation/concept. I'm starting a new one too, but not sure if I'm going /inv or /wp either.

Claws is the "little black dress" of Brute Primarys. It has a little bit of everything. Good AoE, good single target, some knockback/knockdown if thats your thing. It also has a nifty 20% endurance and recharge discount as its inherent "bonus". I literally can't think of a bad pairing for claws.
The real crime is that it can't be paired with stone armor or shield defense.
When there is no room left in Hell, the Dead shall walk the earth.
Aye. Locking out /SD makes sense but why /Stone? Is it just because they didn't want to make a mineral claw?
If I remember correctly, the Eviscerate animation in Granite armor caused bizzare issues.
Claw/invuln is great on a scrapper, and will be great on a brute. Claws matures early, while /invuln matures pretty late, so hang in there until you get invinc/tough/weave/tough hide slotted.

You can't go wrong with Invul, just remember that it can be a bit slot to develop. Having just leveled a Shield, I would say the road is a bit similar. I really enjoyed my Claws/Fire, and it was a smooth ride 1-50, as there was always something to look forward to for me.
Don't I know you???
Hey all, i come here today to hopefuly some advice on this before making it. So, i played my step mom's Claws/WP, and i love the claws on brutes, but i found the /WP squishy, she had purples and such on her, so i had no idea what her DEFs or anything was, but the damage was amazing. So reason i picked /Invul is because i have never played invul on a tank or scrap, or obivously, a brute. I love to jump in and just say good bye lol. I just recently got a FM/Shield brute to 50, and i loved it, not a fan of FM on a Tank, but on a brute, i love it. Cremate is so much better then Combustion imo, i know its not a aoe like combustion but it packs a punch. Im also a teamplayer, love to do TFs, mainly ITFs, but i like farming on the side, or atleast arcs. any help is welcome, it would be nice to get feedback by other players.
