Here's another approach that sacrifices recharge for more defense. Also, Gloom is good on brutes and you might find another single target attack useful. So I substituted it for Soul Tentacles. But my dm/fa brute is still pretty low level, so I haven't actually tried it out.

Do you think recharge or def is more important to the build?

_Pine_ · 01-27-2012 09:04 PM

yes

Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.
