Question about Bruising

Bruising is tied to the T1 attack and only for Tanks right? I have one with SS that I was going to swap out his first attack with Air Sup bit I wanted to make sure I'm not losing the Bruising.

you are correct, bruising is only applied with the tier 1 attacks in tanker sets, not using the tier 1 will mean you wont ever get the benefit of bruising

Bruising causes a 20% damage resistance debuff in your foe for 10 seconds. Which means the second time you hit them, you'll cause more pain!

Bruising rocks. And in the case of SS, lead with the jab was never so true!

Also, you are correct that it is only for Tankers. No other AT gets Bruising.

Ok so swapping out the T1 on SS Tanks is no good. My SS Brutes however...Thanks for the tips

How do you plan on swapping out a Tanks Tier 1 attack?

My bad...I originally started the thought process as it related to my Brutes. But I have a Tank with similar name and build. You're right...my bad

Oh hey, I just was wondering something about Bruising. From what I am seeing in Titan Weapons, since Defensive Sweep is their first attack and a cone, does it apply to every enemy hit? Is this as awesome in practice as it sounds?

As delightful as it would be to have bruising apply to everyone in the cone, sadly this isn't the case. Only the main target gets the bruising.

Well the OP might be thinking on the terms on what attack to start with.

Yeah, after hesitating, I guessed the OP meant "swap out the T1 attack for Air Sup on my power tray," not skip it somehow in the character creation process.

The nice thing about Jab is it recycles so fast that you don't have to wait if you want to use it to soften up every target.
