Dark/Dark Brute

finally levelled a Dark/Dark i have had in 30-40 for over two years. Doing trials with him now, SO'd except for a few procs. I am looking at builds, have quite the store of infamy set aside to make it right. I looked at Dechs guide, and his current build. i need to look at it deeper, it made no sense to me lol. His resist numbers are nearly the same as SOs, and he is talking 55% recharge, and seems very happy. Anybody could build to around 110% recharge if they tried, don't really want to though. Basically, not sure where to go with this. I hear dark is great if you pour a ton of money into it, but seriously, I am unsure how to pour lol.

the build rides hinky, with huge swings in Health and End. At least in SO land. If I build to recharge, I can get my utility powers up more often (heal and +end). Building to softcap defense seems silly, not trying to tank with him.

basically, what is the maximum gain for minimum slots on this guy? He doesnt have to be super tank, just a very solid build, hitting that sweet spot on every statistical curve of maximum return for minimum investment would be nice. (+rech, +def, procs, etc.)

Seems you still dont quite understand the DR with +rech. More than 50-60% is a waste considering you can still get 50-60 AND get soft capped. So its either soft cap or 0.1-0.2seconds off of your attacks.


EDIT: Well, dark actually has a few pretty slow attack/buffs so those would get a second or 2
