Dm or FM, which is better single target dps?

Fighting a single target (No soul drain fodder) Which primary is going to put out more dps? And which chain is going to accomplish this? Gloom not included.


Willpower has more passive regen than Regen does. Who thought that was a good idea?

Can we get a fix for Energy Melee instead of more new sets?

Not enough real experience to say for 100% certain, but I'd say fire. Remember, fire's 'extra effect' is damage over time, meaning your getting extra bang for your buck.

Dark, on the other hand, does -To Hit which means your less liable to BE hit. In addition it has a Self Heal and a way to restore Endurance.

I'd say Fire wins on damage, Dark on survivability.

Again, not enough experance with those sets to say so 100%. I'm sure someone who does have that will either confirm or refute me.

On a brute, I'm pretty sure fire wins even *with* SD fodder. Different story on a scrap or tank, and I'm not sure where the tipping point (i.e. how many targets for SD) is... Anyway top chain for fire (sans Gloom) is cremate > incinerate > GFS, iirc.

So, I went with FM, and after running a crap ton of TF's, I managed to get to 40.

Picked up my first mish from Tina, and she wants me to go beat up a psychic.

Being am Invuln brute made this a little difficult. However, I'm pretty sure I put him down faster than I would have with my Claws/Sr scrapper.

Good call on FM.

Well, tonight I dropped Marauder, Neuron, and Anti-Matter.

The only one I had an issue with was Anti-Matter. He kept debuffing my defense. After my third death with him, I decided to use some inspirations and take him out.
