Help Requested: FM/Inv Brute


Aubri

 

Posted

So I've recently dusted off my old Fire Melee/Invul brute and released that her current build is pre I19 still. I'm looking for help to update her a bit. Not looking for an expensive super tricked out build, just something simple. Included is the mid's for her current build.

Are you set on keeping your epics? Any other specific powers you want to keep, not keep?
Nothing super expensive? What about a cpl of IO Sets?

I have a Fm/Inv brute myself that I love! LOVE! I started with some Touch of death sets until I could afford some Kin Combats, then upgraded.

The epics can change, I'm not exactly tied to those. I don't think I'd have to actually lose any powers either with three slots being freed up because of inherent fitness. ToD sets are indeed lovely and help since I'm looking to build a bit towards defense.

If you build for defense, you'll want to get sets like Kinetic Combat/Smashing Haymaker and Eradication for your AoEs. You want sets that give typed defense for Invulnerability because that's the kind you already have. If I get a chance later I'll see what I can come up with for you.

How much inf. are you willing to put into this / how much effort are you willing to go to to aquire IOs via alternate means (such as reward, alignment, and incarnate merits, or AE tickets)?


@Draeth Darkstar
Virtue [Heroes, Roleplay], Freedom [Villains], Exalted [All Sides, Roleplay]
Code:
I24 Proc Chance = (Enhanced Recharge + Activation Time) * (Current PPM * 1.25) / 60*(1 + .75*(.15*Radius - 0.011*Radius*(360-Arc)/30))
Single Target Radius = 0. AoE Non-Cone Arc = 360.

Like I said, not looking for a expensive build, so no purples or PVP IOs or anything like that. I don't mind putting a bit of effort into getting certain sets, mainly through reward merits rather than alignment or incarnate or AE.

This is an early build I had. You can easily drop the Glad Armor and that other expensive IO that I cant remember the name of right now. Sorry, omw out the door for an appointment.
