WM/???

So I procured the name "Judgement Night" on Exalted server. Thinking a WM brute (really big hammer). I'm not sure what secondary to go with. I'm thinking either Dark or Fire. Which of those do you suggest? Any other suggestions that may fit better? I open up to the floor for commentary.

I wouldn't take fire with a redraw powertset.

dark/SR/WP/ELA/EA/SD/or even invuln are fine.
SD tend to be better with scrappers, so I prefer to roll a scrap when using SD :P

so:
dark if you got the money to Pimp it to god mode
SR if you want a cheap way to softcap
WP if you want a good (but sometime expensive) solo build
ELA if you want a very good incarnate defense set
EA if you want to recharge your attack faster
Invuln for easy tanking !


English isn't my birth language, so don't blame me if I do some mistakes. thank you !

So why wouldn't you take Fiery Aura with a weapon set? Everything but Invuln and WP have a click or two you will be using as often enough like FA.

/EA because it is both PRETTY and STRONG.

I've had a blast with my WM/Shield brute. Once you softcap defense, shield is survivable, has a good agro aura (no problems getting the AV's attention in the BAF and that's without taunt- does require tankers not being stupid, but eh), and adds to your offense. Depending on your character concept, it pairs pretty nicely with War Mace. It may not be strong and pretty, but I've had a lot of fun with it.

No other answer really, there's hard evidence:

This IMO. Perma-stunning bosses never gets old.

I went WM/SD most for concept. Its good solid build.

So how's this for funny...I created the toon as a WM/Dark. I'm liking Dark...not feeling WM so much for this concept. Sooooo...now I flip the question. What pairs good with /Dark?

I have a SS/Dark that's pretty fun. Took him a while to get there though. Claws/Dark would probably be pretty nice, maybe Kinetic Melee/Dark? Only one I might avoid would be Stone (from what I have been told it's pretty heavy on endurance usage and DA does use endurance prodigiously). Might avoid the weapon sets if you're real set on avoiding any redraw, since Dark Regeneration would trigger that. I don't think you can go too wrong though.
