hmm... I've taken both to level 50, but not on the same toon. I can't think of any reason why they wouldn't play well together unlike, for example, Street Justice. The -recharge from Granite would kill your ability to build your combo level. But martial arts should be fine.
I think that doing the martial arts moves in granite armor would LOOK weird. I saw a guy in granite armor with dual blades and it was pretty funny.

Edit -> From a mechanical standpoint, I would think that the only thing that would hurt it is that you won't get much out of Storm Kick. It gives positional defense, whereas Stone Armor mainly gives typed Defense. However, the extra damage buff from Eagle's Kick would help to negate some of the debuff from Granite.

I see heh, do you think that there is anything that the sets together would excel at?

I think the +def from Storm Kick will make it easier to run Stone outside of Granite. Shouldn't be too hard to get soft capped to S/L/E/N and Psi with the defense active.

Mids' is showing base 10% to all but psi. Is this incorrect?
hmm, a quick check on Red Tomax shows positional only.
I believe it was originally positional, but buffed to def vs all shortly after they ported it.
Edit: In game description is indeed def vs all (except psi and toxic) also according to the patch notes on paragonwiki.

@Starflier
Could somebody show me the light with these to power sets and if they'd work well with each other? I'd really like to try this, but I'd like some information about it first.
Thanks!
