Why not ice melee/ice armor as a powerset for melee types like not only brutes, but stalkers, scrappers, and tanks? I mean, I know fire melee & aura is "hot", but I think ice would be "cool", don't you? wdyt?

First of all brutes don't have ice anything, tanks have ice armor/ice melee. And stalkers are going to get ice armor. From what I read the reason brutes don't have ice is because it conflicted with fury building a long time ago.

Which it doesn't do anymore. Fury has been changed quite a bit since issue 6 (or issue 5, whichever was Villains beta) so ice armor won't conflict anymore.

So the reason why brutes (and scrappers) don't have it yet is just mainly a factor of time. Sooner or later they will get it, but they aren't getting it now.

its been hinted that in the next round of proliferation (post i21) that scrappers are getting ice armor (along with the same tier 9 that stalkers get)
