For DM/Inv take a look at this thread http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=270772.
DA recharges very quickly and perma on its own. On my Katana scrapper I took everything except Taunt and Gamblers Cut.
Im gonna assume that by EA you meant Electric Armor since you mention a damage aura. EA generally refers to Energy Aura.
Yup, I meant Electric Armor. So what is that...ElA?
Thanks for that link, I can't wait to get off work and read it!
For my next toon I'm looking at DM/INV brute or Katana/EA brute.
I have a DM scrapper and an INV tanker, and think the combo would be pretty unkillable, but I am also looking for something new to play, so maybe Katana/EA.
I know next to nothing about Katana, except that lotus drop and avalanche look pretty awesome. And on paper EA has it all...end drain resist, KB resist, a damaging aura, heal, end recovery.
So, any thoughts on either build? In Katana what would be Must have/Don't takes? What would be the strengths/weaknesses of each build? Do I need to keep my S/L at 15% and take Lotus/Avalanche into account when I'm figuring my Def? (if i had 15% sl and I throw Lotus/Avalanche does that keep me at 45%?). How close to perma can I get Lotus/Avalanche?
