I take it you don't intend on using KO Blow?
You prob'ly could do better than 4 slotting combat jump.
what would you suggest putting in combat jump and where should i take it out of....

But you get a free slot, so might as well put a LotG rech in there.
More than that I can't really spend time on atm

Is that better?
While not a expert on brutes, so far both those builds I've seen are pretty crappy. You need to read the "Best Farm Build" a few threads beyond. I believe someone posted a farm brute there that was designed to farm on the cheap (or in other words, use cheaper IO sets).
But here is mine;
Punch - most folks I've seen put a taunt set there for the recharge set bonus.
Blazing Aura - lots put proc there.
Haymaker - KB... really? I mean, really?
Consume - throw a set of taunts there instead.
Rise of the Phoenis - you're in AE, do you really need that? I mean, the hospital is just a hop, skip and a jump away. As for the damage part, do you really plan on dying that often?
Energy Mastary - Of all your choices, that's the best you could find? More endurance... heck you can get that with Cardiac. Its a better choice anyways, since Muscalature Boost is a waste cause you be converting and eating reds all the time anyways.

Don't you know that discussion of power selection/slotting can ONLY be based on hearsay, rumor, idle speculation, and bald-faced lies??!? ~Elf_Sniper
like i said i havent been on in awhile.... i just came back ..... thats why im asking for advice . 
but i thank you for your honesty no matter how harsh you were
And.... its not just for farming its for tfs and the such all around toon....
I didn't notice the TF part.
So, you want a serious toon for srs bsns?
That changes things. But I still don't have time at the moment to work on it.
Your power choices should prob'ly happen in a different order then. For example, rage is a jewel of SS. I don't know that it's fitting to wait until lvl 35 or w/e to take it.
You most likely won't need the kismet +6% with rage running all the time.
and...
and...
and...
later, maybe if I remember and want to

I say your best bet would be making dual builds, one for strict farming and another for teaming. If the average cash rate for a ss/fire brute doing AE farms is still about 100 mil a hour, it won't take you long to get enough cash for your second build.
As for harsh... sorry, I tried to tone it down. But with about a dozen threads below about this very subject (not your build, but ss/fire in general), I though you were being lazy not doing your research first.

If you are only going to be using one build, i recomend making it content based. So get soul and try and get a decent chunk of s/l def (i like to be soft cap, but im really starting to think 32.5% might be enough) and 12 points of -kb.
An SS/fire a build created to survive is still going to kill things fast...really fast.
And for the love of god dont get nrg mastery.
Of course, if you are a hero and cant get PPPs you ****** up and need to go redside. :P

I have found that on teams 32.5% is more than enough as I always have some form of support from the rest of the group. Whether it is a crab with double leadership buffs, or bubbles or a emp tossing out Fort and RA it is all enough to make up for that last 12.5%.|

Even solo these days I have no issues at 32.5% unless its 1v1against an AV and it never is since I have lore pets to help out with them.
Global: @Kelig
Yeah, go Soul Mastery for Gloom and Dark Obliteration, Darkest Night too if you have a power pick since you really only need like 2 slots for it.
I'd build for S/L defense, like others said aim for around 32.5%. After that build for recharge and +HP. Instead of slotting Aegis, go with Titanium Coating for the HP bonuses. It's really nice having 2k + HP plus a decent amount of defense and a lot of recharge.
Also, what's your budget? Can make use of purple sets to get your recharge up if it's not too expensive for you.

Posted this on another thread, but I'll repost here.
I love my current slotting for my SS/Fire brute. He's a farming monster. I'm always farming with other lower levels so I have a constant supply of vengeance to keep me over fire def soft cap. I can do Crey's in 5min, most other fire farms in 3.5 minutes.
33.4% Fire Defense
91% Recharge before Hasten/FF Proc (161% with Hasten)
