I wonder if the beefed up EA will make a WM/EA, high-tech mace wielding toon worthwhile? I'm sorta out of scrapper secondaries to roll anyway.

Axe is a cool addition too, but I like Mace a bit more for the better cones. Sorta disappointed at the lack of Ice Melee & SS (not that I expect scrappers to ever get SS).
WM/EA will be stronger and prettier than ever!

Ya, missing the "Big 3." That means in issues 22 and 23 will be ice/ice ninjitsu (hopefully) +/- the dom's treatment (nothing). Oh, and Titan Weapons. Maybe next year...

Can't wait to see numbers and the Pylon Results thread light-up

I might do a kin/nrg now, with the atomic aura, I'll be Atom Fu!

Yeah and now maybe I can stop bchin about waisted HP when I hit DP....


But really.... Katana/****** ohhhhhhhh.... probably with a damage aura of some sort.... electric maybe...


edit:
ohhhhh... so is regen getting a taunt aura now?

I have yet to play an EA, but I was scanning the set last week and went, "Why didn't they just add an Energize type power in there?" Definitely a set worth looking into now.

It should since SR did. I'd guess it gets placed in Integration.

Synapse even admitted they tried to nerf Regen, bringing it down to Scrapper levels before finally saying "Let the Brutes tank with Regen." HAH!

If they stick a taunt aura in it... don't mind if I do....
But I'm done backing up regen if peeps thinks it needs a buff then be it



But let's see here..... My Katana/WP can get 600 more HP??????????
Yeah I don't know

Holy crap.

I'm not sure how well would Martial Arts work as a Tanker set though... I guess the lack of AoE problem isn't as prominent due to gauntlet.

That scaling Recharge buff sounds aaaaaaawesome. Playing the KM/EA I've been waiting to make should be tons of fun!

i dont think anything can be considered villian or hero ATs anymore.

On another note. Strong and pretty gets "critical"!!

Sigh, and I just finished leveling my WM/SD brute to 50. I would have made him a scrapper in a hearbeat if that option had been available.

I'm in a similar boat, I just got finished grabbing a bunch of T3 Incarnate powers for my WM/SD.



With the proliferation of WM to Scrappers, I can't think of any really compelling reasons to keep the Brute since the Scrapper version will completely outclass it in all but HP.

Guess its time to re-roll.

wooow

Right after I got my WM Brute to lv50 too.

Thanks alot Blizzard.

How do BS and WM stack up? Is the difference enough to reroll a mid-30s BS/SD?
