I would recomend a brute if you are gonna go with will or a scrapper if you wanna go with SD.
At the end of the day SD will likely become tougher and will also have a lot more dmg. I Find dark really does well with SD too.

How do the numbers on shield defense on a brute compare to a scrapper? Will the extra brute HP be a big deal?
The Brute hitpoint numbers matter less on SD than WP. If you go with /SD, I'd suggest a scrapper the dmg numbers are amazing with AAO and darks pbaoe build up (can't remember what its called.)
I have a level 50 dm/invul and he's a tough sob. Circle of thorn are like candy to him. The only real loop hole for invul is the malts with the end drain.
I'm currently playing a Kat/SR scrapper and I'm looking for something a bit more tough. I've invested alot of time and money in that scrapper but at the end of the day I know he's never going to really get any more survivable.
So I'm looking to play something a bit more tough. I'm familiar with all the melee powersets, I've got multiples of the melee ATs to 50 and I'm pretty set on what I want this time around. I definately want Dark Melee for my offense but I'm undecided if I want to play a Brute or Scrapper and if I would prefer Willpower or Shield Defense. I'd like to know which sets perform better on which AT and which is worth the most investment.
