dark armor build request

hey guys, im currently deciding on a project to make a character, and my main concern is dark armour, im going for a brute for damage in fury, rather than go for tanker because damage is useless, the resistance in dark armour is unparalleled and the set itself has got potential, anyways, i picked energy melee because of the cosmic idea of the set, two main powers i want is the extreme ones since they are the best in my opinion, im looking for a build with complete damage output and amazing survivability, ive heard nothing but good things about dark armour.
the epic power pool i wants is energy mastery aswell, so if anyone could make me this build id be greatly appreciated.

Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

here's some randomness.

Hi Sypher.

one Luck to soft cap s/l/e

It'd be nice to know what powers you can't live without (CoF and OG?)

both the builds i posted are leaning towards the defensive side.

fyi, EM isn't gonna give you very good AoE damage, but it sounded like you just wanted the look.

The second build is nicer - although for me I would skip torrent and eyes and just slot the heck out of physical perfection - you lose acc bonuses but acc isn't an issue for most people that high up.
