NEED CRITIQUE - Brute - Titan/Willpower - Mids' Build included

Biske · 03-24-2012 02:56 AM

This is what I've got planned for my final respec for my brute, looking for any ideas, tweaking, or anything wrong with it. Its got capped S/L/E with the lowest Barrier values, but the recharge isn't so great. I don't mind too much though. Also, what do people think of the new Resurgence? Worth having?

You've got about the same level of recharge my TW/WP has, which I've found to be plenty. The newly buffed Resurgence is cool, but /WP has been top-notch for years without a rez, so it's nice to have, but still far from mandatory if you can't make room for it.

Looks like a pretty frickin' solid build. If I were you, I'd swap one or both of the Brute's pieces Fury with endredux to Arc of Destruction, because it's a very expensive attack. A Kismet proc would be nice, maybe in Indomitable Will, but if you've got all your level shifts already, you won't ever really need it.

Good catch, I'll fix that. I had the Dam/End/Rech piece planned in Arc, but Mid's erroneously has that as Acc/End/Rech so I shifted stuff around temporarily to make sure I had the necessary damage enhancement values and forgot to switch them back.

Yea, fully shifted so Kismet doesn't seem necessary. It does remind me of the Regenerative Tissue: +Regeneration unique though, should I try to fit that in somewhere?
