One of my favorite combos right now is this Ice Melee/Bio Brute. Absolutely a blast to play. He's been level 50 for a while now, but I'm trying to fine tune his build for a bit more but I am somewhat a novice when it comes to both primary and secondary. Anyone play this combo before? Any advice that I can do to change things around a bit? I'm not planning on investing billions of influence in this build and I'm using a lot of IO sets I already have access to. What sort of changes would you look for with this combo? https://www.midsreborn.com/builds/download.php?uc=1674&c=716&a=1432&f=HEX&dc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

Energy Melee. Should have specified earlier.

I am working on a EM/Shield Brute right now. I love the concept, I love the powers, but when it comes to final build I just can't wrap my head around it. Considering Manuevers over Weave for the additional team defense, but not sure. Any advice @JJDrakken? And I should probably specify, but I don't plan on dumping a ton of influence into this character.

I recently restarted playing the game a couple weeks ago after being gone for many years, and I jumped right in to trying out a combo I have never played before. Time Manipulation was not on Live when I played last, and I have a lot of fun with the set. As always though, any help from someone with more experience would be greatly appreciated. Please take a look and let me know what you think. This Hero build was built using Mids Reborn 3.4.6 https://github.com/LoadedCamel/MidsReborn Click this DataLink to open the build!
