Puts your KB right to sleep.

OP many times. Thats why I don't do huge respecs anymore. I use my phone take a screenshot of my build, take a screenshot of my power trays. Respec to move that one slot that I accidentally over-slotted to another power. Move everything back. If I decide that I dont use a certain power, I might change it to another power that I think I would use more as long as I don't have to take slots from something else to make this power good enough to use. I used to play to 50 and then respec into Tough and Weave back when that was a thing. Now its really not, with incarnates and everything that can be boosted to ungodly strength with purple recipes or 50+5 enhancers.

I looks sorta like a hockey puck underneath a blanket.

I just did the Faultline arc for Penny Yin so I could unlock Mr. Yin's store. I had not don't that on any character on HC to this point. So...yay! lvl 17 Defender came in handy.

Here's my perspective and what I can add: I never played a Brute on live, I never played Energy Melee on Live. I created an EM/Inv Brute on HC and he plays the way I think a Brute should play. Relentlessly attacking and punching foes in the face to build and maintain fury. With that said, he was tremendously an endurance hog leveling up. I could not really constantly attack and build and maintain Fury in my low 30s. Always stopping to rest just kills Brute momentum. All these ST attacks do not need to be this End heavy. Something felt way off leveling up. For instance. ST blasts on a blaster dont need ENDRDX, why should ST melee attacks on a Brute? I have played Scrappers that could attack constantly in their mid 30's, but not this Brute. NOw that he's incarnate its not an issue, but it was leveling up.

Bee Swarms I picture a Melee set similar to Beasts Minion level trio does slows and DOT attacks (poison) LT Level does, I dunno, more poison and immobs? Boss Level Fear Aura (or Confuse, you get to pick) for sure, relentless attacks

100/200, died like a squishie

Yeah, my Brute needed some AoE. He's a non farmer brute. Energy Melee/Invul. I took Kick, Tough, Weave, and Crosspunch. CP is definitely in my Attack Chain. Kick only if I have -Rech on me. But I can never see doing this with a defender. I'd be more apt to just go AirSup.

Group Fly is great to utilize in the numerous huge Oranbega rooms. It's just another resourceful combat tool. Not really a travel power at all.

I hate, hate, hate the fighting Pool. Only took it on one Brute. None of my tanks have it. None of my other characters have it.

I just did the Black Swan mission today with a group, and was explaining to them I had this exact mission on another server, and could never find Black Swan. They said I needed to use the targetenemynext command or something like that. I was like: I'll never do that! I'm old!

I like that I'm not the oldest. Some days I do feel that way. (56 here)

Poison Gas Arrow, a sleep, needs a bigger effect radius. Flash Arrow was skipable on my Illusion Controller. The rest are ok. Set doesn't need a heal.

Ah..thanks for clarifying. I just didn't understand there were stipulations.

Im talking about these badges: https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Ouroboros_Badges I should have gotten the Devalued badge but did not. It was a level 45 arc, the outdoor map with the Hydra mobs, then you run to Dr Sheridan, who covers you in slime, then you go back and clear the map again.

Didn't running flashback missions with difficulty options set used to give badges? I recently ran a small 2 mission arc with the "enhancements have no effect" option clicked, completed it, and expected a badge. Was I wrong? Is this broken? Was it turned off?

Bicycle Repairman has bots named Shimano, Schwinn, Trek, Ultegra, Campagnolo, and 105. Buzz Words has Beasts named Gunga Galunga, Sarabi Slice, Simba Claws, Hazel, Maxine and Buddy.

I have a 50 Dark/Martial I use Caltrops as a deterrent to come in to melee me when I attack from long range. I also use it with the Wide Area Stun Power (name escapes me) to keep the mobs from staggering too far away so that my AoE attacks have maximum coverage.

I have noticed that. I do not really use Group Fly as a travel power per se, but in combat in certain situations, open outdoor maps for instance. Keep the bots in the air attacking mobs below this works especially well with a deployed Faraday Cage giving us resistance and status protection.

Cirque du'Freak in Crey's Folly and the badge on top of the bridge in Indy Port (I love running up there on the catwalks and fighting the few mobs up there and take the badge) Ace, the only badge in the Rikti Crash Site

That looks like an old Viewsonic. Also, there is a Freedom Corp Store in Indy Port at the far north of the zone that you get a special badge for if you go there because it is so infrequently visited.

I am Bots/EA MM I may have to try this out on my henchies. Thanks for posting 🙂

Reading the OP, he/she said they liked War Mace for the KU, KD and Stun. well, hell thats what I slotted for. Not for a premium attack chain that must be followed to get maximum efficiency. Just have fun anyway you like though.

Yes, only old players should slot this way
