I'm not sure if "synergy" is the right word but Fiery Aura and Stone Melee really make up for each others weaknesses well. All the KD, disorients, and of course Seismic Slam really helps survive situations that other Fire tanks would weep at, and Burn, Fiery Embrace and a solid damage aura all help to compensate for Stone Melee's poor aoe damage. |
One that surprised me...
My Elec/WP Brute.
Until I rolled her, I'd been playing mostly ranged characters (Corrs, Defs Contrs, occasional MM), and I had Alt-itis something awful. She cured it single-handedly by being so friggin' AWESOME that everything else felt too wimpy by comparison. I keep wondering why I don't see more Elec/WP Brutes around. Mine's been at 50 for several months now, and is still a blast to play (especially with the Mu PPP).
Got my SJ/Fire Aura Brute to 41 today, he is AMAZINGLY fun, hoping GLoom Dark Oblit is better than Fire Blast/Fireball, was uneasy on that because of Fiery Embrace. We'll see how it works out but he's a death machine as is so...
'wasted' most of 2xp on Cathode Ray, my beam rifle/rad corrupter who I got to 40 in spite of making a solemn pre-weekend vow to concentrate on other somewhat less able members of my stable.
I did get one odd combo up to level 18- Mr. Ikebana, my plant/ff controller.
The costume idea came to me in a vision, it had to be plant, obviously, and I'd just run a Sutter TF with a FF controller that was a fun walkover thanks in large part to our bubbles. It seemed like it'd be a tedious combo to level so I ran a couple of 2xp DFBs and got him to 18.
