Dark Melee/Stone


Kemphler

 

Posted

So, recently I went through my characters and found my old Dark/Stone brute. Sitting at level 50 and stripped of most of his IOs. I decided I'd take him out of storage and make use of him again, as he already had a chunk of his incarnate abilities just waiting to be used. I've gone over and made two slightly different builds, and I'd appreciate some advice as to which of the two I should use, or at the very least how I could improve one or the other.

I believe personally that the first build would provide better survivability, though the second may provide overall better damage. Again, any advice is appreciated!
