Battle Axe and ATs

Yes, my Altaholism is going strong...

So, had a concept for a character, using Battle Axe and Willpower. However, there is now three different ATs I could put those together with.

I know my way around Willpower, and can work with it in any of the three. But I've never really played with the Axe for long, before. So... out of Scrappers, Tankers, and Brutes, which make the best use out of Battle Axe?

As above depends on your personal play style. Make sure you have plenty of blue insp's with you after lvl 30 though it does get end heavy from then on

I personally like BA on Brutes, if simply for the fury building, flat-out berserker style it encourages. I also just plain like BA, because it's a simple set. No weak powers. No weird mitigation stuff. Just knockdowns and lots of damage until the map is clear and you're covered in blood.

But that's just me.

I have an Invuln/Axe tank, which was actually the first tank I rolled up back in I-2. The knockdown in Axe really helps a primary that benefits from keeping foes near, like Invuln. The knockdown really ends up mitigating a fair amount of damage. Foes on their butts can't hit you.

Axe certainly is not the highest damage on a Tank. But with three AoE powers, it does a good job at drawing aggro and being able to contribute damage. With well-slotted Invuln, my Invuln/Axe tank is probably my second toughest tank after my Stone/Fire. If you want a tank instead of just a damage dealer, Axe works pretty well for sets that need foes near like Invul, Shield and WP. You can skip the second attack and still have a very good attack chain.
