Energy cloak & cloak of darkness still don't supress, right?
I just tested this out:
Went to The Fab in Grandville with an Energy/Energy brute. Attacked two Crey tanks standing on the edge of a very loosely packed spawn, probably at least 60 feet across. Within seconds another member of the spawn attacked, and soon the entire spawn was on me.
In another instance I attacked two minions who were off to the side. One other minion that was looking toward me attacked while the rest of the spawn ignored me. Simply moving past them got their attention and they attacked me. It didn't feel any different than any other brute or tank trying to attract aggro.
Energy Aura now has an 8-ft aggro-generating -Recharge debuff on Entropic Aura. If you get near mobs they will now notice if you've got Entropic Aura on, even if you have full invisibility (by having Energy Cloak and a +Stealth IO, for example). This is a significant change, one that was not greeted with universal acclaim: many don't like the fact that you have to turn off your mez protection in order to stealth by mobs.
Of course, if you really want mobs to come attack you, you can just taunt them. They will come no matter how stealthed you are.
A while ago, I tried leveling a /DA brute. DA is normally my favorite armor, but I absolutely hated it on a brute due to it not supressing when I wanted enemies to see me beat up their buddies and come over and 'help'.
I would like to make a TW/DA (or maybe /EA) brute, but not if this still works in this fashion...
