5 * 70.72 Smashing damage every 0.4s over 1.7s
That's 353 base damage in less animation time than the old concentrated strike or KoB.
It's somewhat like the new CS that was taken away from KM.
That's brute staff btw. Try it out.
EDIT: Scrappers in Overload will hit their HP cap of 2409, while brutes will hit their cap of 3212. There's a very big difference there.

that is a cone though not a single target? and the dmg is s/l? Does staff have any stacking moves like dual blades?

It is a cone, although that's only a benefit. A cone only means it -may- hit more targets, but the fact that it's a cone over a single target doesn't make it worse in any way.|

The damage is Smashing, although if you look at any ranged character, their resistance is the same across the board. Exotic damage doesn't really exist in PvP when fighting ranged characters because their +res shields grant resistance to all types of damage.
Only melee characters typically have higher S/L res than other resistance types. Seeing as the OP asked for the "most effective" melee for PvP -and- stated MA/SS as examples (Both smashing), we can assume she's fine with a big smashing typed attack.
Lastly, it does have stacking bonuses from using multiple attacks, but this can be all ignored in comparison to the biggest attack I listed above. That's the only real gem of the set, much like the old Kinetic Melee.

@Psycho Jas
So im looking to find out what would be the most effective for pvp, Either Brute or Scrapper, I will be making Energy aura, also what is the best attack set for either of these AT's with EA as their shields. Tempted by SS for Brute or possible MA for Scrapper, if you have reasons for your choices please note them so i can read over it...
