Batttle axe and warmace for scraps! (Foams at mouth.)
At long last, a weapon set that does smashing damage! OMG, feer me robots....
I like that it sounds like all sets one day will be given to all ATs where applicable (support/buff sets to MMs, melee sets to scrappers, etc.).
Ustream made it sound like Radiation, Kinetics, empathy, etc. to Masterminds was an eventual given. However, these would go in the Not Soon(TM pending) class.
My only issue with scrappers now is I'm addicted to having that 90 percent resistance cap on brutes/tankers. If I go with a scrapper it would be a with a set that is defensive-based or mixes enough tricks/survival tactics (Willpower, Energy Aura, etc) that being resistance capped doesn't feel needed.
Thank you, City of Heroes, for giving me a superhero social network combined with amazingly smooth game play. Petitions signed with realistic expectations.
I'd probably make a Super Strength/Shield Defense or a Super Strength/Invulnerability Scrapper. OR BOTH.

Why must they tease me? 
I REALLY want Ice Armor for scrappers. Now that they have proliferated it to stalkers, it shouldn't be that hard to get one for scrappers. No longer have to worry about the double hibernate thing.
That being said, I also wouldn't mind Super Strength for scrappers either

Ice Armor would be more exciting to me. I am not really excited by more S/L damage for scrappers, but I hope /EA turns out well. With energize added to it, I see it becoming the new /SR, with many DM/EA FotMs running about, including my own.

I suspect Super Strength and Ice Armor for Scrappers will be part of the Powerset Proliferation 4.0, whenever that is. Whatever we may get next, I'll probably make some character outta the new toys!

Would a Super Strength / Fiery Aura Scrapper do more damage than the Brute version?

With EA being able to softcap easy enough on it's own. Why go Dark Melee?
The -toHit would add to it's defense sure. But it's going to get a decent self-heal.I'd say go for something with a bit more AOE potential and soft controls. Or maybe even just a good mix of ST/AOE DMG in Fire Melee.
And looking at it's incoming buffs, I think it'll start to become a favorite of many more people. The ability to hit itrial softcap on Energy Damage alone, with the self heal.
My only disappointment was I was really hoping to see EA cap Energy Resist more than anything else.

Once upon a time a little birdie told me that if they ever decided to port over SS to scrappers they'd raise the base damage on the attacks slightly and replace Rage with Build Up.

It'd be reeeeaaaally close though. And yes, the maxed out crits would be rare, but EPIC.
But, the brute would also be tougher. A lot.

The real strength the brute would have over the scrapper in kill speed is taunt in the damage aura and punchvoke on the attacks. Runners are the bane of my existence on scrappers, which I why I almost never play my main DM/SR or my KM/Elec anymore. But take a secondary with a taunt arua like SD, Inv, or the new EA, and things start looking very nice if you pair them with Super Strength.
I think a SS/FA scrapper would run into the same problem a Spines/FA has, in that the mobs will run before they are dead.
One of the reasons I am going to make SS/SD and SS/Inv are because of their strong taunt auras. That and they're some of my most favorite Secondaries available to Scrappers!
