Fm/Inv critique

Posted

Was wondering if someone would mind having a look at my build. Just wondering if I have overlooked anything. With 1 or 2 in range of invince I am softcapped to energy damage and surpass s/l, that way I have some wiggle room for def debuffs.

Ok, what I see is this...

(1) Resist Physical Damage needs 2 more slots...I would take them from Combat Jumping and leave just a +Rech LotG in that one...the other 2 slots are not worth the effort. I would then put 4 reactive armors in Resist Physical damage and leave the Steadfast in with them. The set bonus is worth more from those 2 slots then it is having them in CJ. Also, the extra S/L Resist never hurts.

(2)your resists are low...I would slot it like this...

I used to have a super awesome FM/INV brute but I have moved on to other things. It was before the Enzyme nerf. I have replaced the Enzymes in this build with Cytos. It should be roughly 45.5% to S/L/E/N and you could fix that with enhancement boosters. Or use something in place of the cytos.

The chain here was Gloom-Inc-Cremeate-FS which was relatively high single-target DPS at the time. Cardiac for alpha. Maybe this gives you some ideas. One thing missing is ATOs and the fury proc.

I'll have a look over it when it isn't family time.
One thing about it is, no gloom. This an all hero brute.

I got third place in a costume contest yesterday and got enough to snag up a Shield Wall +res to go in it, as well as the Glad armor proc which I got the day after I posted the initial build. With what I have posted I have soloed most of the Praetorian AV's with one or two exceptions, and even took out a Pylon using GFS, Incinerate, and Cremate.

I do thank everyone for looking and offering suggestions.

So, I respecced into something very similar to what was recommended.

Now Im just curious if there would be someway to add fireball to the build. I noticed after getting all of the +end accolades, that even when exemped lower than 25, my blue bar barely moves. Adding fireball would give me that much needed additional AoE.

I made one up based on your build. It drops Hasten, but on a melee toon you don't need it that badly. If you do want it you can drop something else.

Anyway, gets your S/L/E/N defenses to 45% and F/C to 32.5% (IE Small Purple range) on top of having Fireball.

Personally, I don't find the need for Resist Elements and Resist Energies that early. I would want my travel before lvl 49. If you exempt to do any TFs losing your travel might be a pain. I'd swap Super Speed and one of the Resist E powers.

I'll have a closer look a bit later and see if anything else leaps out at me suggestion-wise.

Unless you actually use Unstoppable, I would keep Hasten and ditch Unstoppable. I used it as an Aegis mule for a Psi resists unique for a while before I finally respec'ed out of it on my build as my DM/INV brute hasn't needed unstoppable and it's nasty crash since I hit level 50 and got slotted.

my 2 cents

I'm no good at multi-quoting, so there are responses to multiple folks in here.

1.
Personally, I don't find the need for Resist Elements and Resist Energies that early. I would want my travel before lvl 49. If you exempt to do any TFs losing your travel might be a pain. I'd swap Super Speed and one of the Resist E powers.

I have ninja run and a jet pack. And I rarely, rarely exemp.

I made one up based on your build. It drops Hasten, but on a melee toon you don't need it that badly. If you do want it you can drop something else.

Anyway, gets your S/L/E/N defenses to 45% and F/C to 32.5% (IE Small Purple range) on top of having Fireball.
I actually came in here to post what I had come up with myself. I will have a look at the build you posted.


Well, this is the planned build that I have. My question is whether or not it would be end sustainable.

I have dropped unstoppable in my current build. I can solo lvl 52 AV's and a pylon.

This is what my current build looks like.

You can do your planned build, but you'll be sucking wind pretty quick. Aim for 2.00 net end recovery, and that should give you a few minutes of sustained fighting with no end management tools. You'll be in a situation where in AV fights etc, you will be eating blues to keep going.
