Hay, im new to the forum so if i sound like an iodet thats why, lol.
So anyway My main that i run is actually a Claws/EA brute and i love it! I can totally see how people would say that its squishy, because it kinda is at face value, but it is a really nifty set. The fact that is has Stealth that dosent break in combat means you can fight one group while another sits right there, without the other group aggroing. Tho you wil never be able to take AVs down single handed, its still alot of fun. Be careful tho, EA is an end HOG! Its kinda a problem till you get your end drain power, after that its cake, you just really gotta pay attention. Hope this helped, if you have any questions feel free to ask!
I don't know a great deal about EA but I have heard its not very good. So I thought I'd take it to mids and see what happens.
It looks like it would be pretty sturdy but am I missing a hole someplace? I know it has low Psi def and low DDR (51.9%) but will that make it feel squishy? My last 2 scraps were /SD and that's a very sturdy set, how would this compare?
I haven't even made this toon yet, just kinda spitballin here but I'd love to get some thoughts on this. Thanks
