What is the best attack on this character for the fury proc? I was thinking FS but heard the proc bad for AOE should I put it in KO blow?

From what I understand the best place to slot it is a fast charging attack that you use often.

On my TW/Fire Brute I have it slotted in the spinning sword attack (name escapes me at the moment) which I constantly spam.

Actually, fast-charging powers are generally a *bad* place for ATO procs, because of the way the PPM mechanics work out.

A simple rule of thumb is "8-15s base recharge", Single Target, and something you're using often.

For SS, if you're using it for farming and you're routinely hitting Footstomp with 4+ targets, then go ahead in Footstomp.

If it's a general purpose build, put it in KO if you're high-recharge (which you should be with those sets), or in Haymaker if it's a lower end build. (The low-recharge build will be *casting* Haymaker sufficiently more often to make up for not having 100% proc rate).
