Snarky

Fopr me i stuck with it and have since moved back to Bruts lol. although my current energy/will brute plays like a fat scrapper, incarnated for damage rather than survival. grrr. but i honestly think the corruptor is my strongest team build. it may be the way i move through the future. possibly. so strong. but i do love lazily bruting lol

I have not attempted to run Stone Armor since the first time and my really cool Stone Brute Demon disappeared beneath a granite facade.... Does Stone Armor on a Tank (or Brute) survive any easier in Battle Maidens Blue Patch, or being blasted by towers in BAF or any of the other Incarnate Insanity? Or is Invulnerable pretty much the same mitigation with no movement hassles? (and a real costume...)

Not that I have noticed. Is this occurring for you?

Yes, Dark Astoria was added because of the trial grinds. I remember back in the day my comp couldnt handle half the Lambda map. How was I supposed to get incarnate components? I was so grateful for Dark Astoria. I love to team. Task Forces are a hoot for me. I solo story arcs sometimes, but I love knocking out a Task Force run. I guess some people are saying late game teaming is 'broken'... I have not seen this. I play a LOT at 50 on PUG teams. Task Forces, Incarnate trials, jumping into random farms as a hitter, Strike Forces, 50 teams running content to help lowbies level. I exclusively PUG. I do not lead, I just join whatever. I see mostly smooth running teams. Maybe that is where the issue is. On non-pug custom built incarnate teams that take on things like Dark Astoria that were designed for soloing they just knock it out too fast? Would be similar if we took a League of veteran incarnates into the ITF. People would start screaming about raising the difficulty.... I will join ANY team doing content I am looking for with the toon I am on (for badges merits, incarnate exp, components, whatever) I just do not see this giant issue with late game teams having a problem. Is this because every bit of team content is not like Cathedral of Pain complicated? or Battle Maiden fight slanted against a class of players? Or just generally does there need to be extreme buffing on enemies (because Cyclops arent a pain already) and random nukes to take out our squishies? I honestly do not see the point besides "make it extremely harder", especially stuff that was not designed for the team I am taking in there. Redesign that.

Aside from all new content like Incarnate Trials...you know what threw me for a spin, and still does? when they redid Freakshow with Superstunners! Rather than have a bunch of randomly applied Judgements land on teams (creating various Battle Maiden type battles where certain ATs shine and others cringe...) a few surgically sprinkled mobs that need to be dealt with correctly has always beed the hardest parts of this game. Whether it be LB, CoT, Freaks, or Malta. It is rarely the raw damage that gets you. You approach each new group with respect. The entire run I just did on the ITF I carefully destroyed the Surgeons first thing. That level of complication is so much more difficult than creating a locked in environment with uber mechanics that slay teams that do not have the perfect Shields/Taunt/Dance left/Swipe right setup. It allows PUGs to just organically form. And have fun.

I just 50d a new Energy/Will Brute. I Incarnated and T3d it (Alpha, Judgement, Interface only) with a few hours work and some e-mailed Emps. I jumped in an ITF to open Lore and Destiny. 7/8 of us were relatively new 50s, 1-8 vet levels, one was a pre-50. We did a kill most. No one was 'left in the dust" It was on +4. It was not super fast, but it was fast. We tended to have 'team spread' and clumps of us never quite working the exact same area. If all 8 of us teamed, yeah everything died fast. Mostly we just ran through it like kids at Disneyland. No talking, just do what you want. I surgeon hunt in ITFs, as a matter of habit. I was the only "heavy" melee, no other Brute or tank. I did not try to tank. I killed surgeons, herded when it looked convenient. Yet no one was "left in the dust." I say all this because some of the posts keep talking about how power creep has ruined the game. Ahem. I have run ITF on live with non incarnate 50s and comps that turned the valley into a slide show. I had a lot more fun on this run. 7/8 of us were 50+1, the mobs were 54, we had EBs that took effort to put down. Strategy was needed. Why (in a thread devoted to I/Os???) is it necessary to start campaigning for removing incarnate level shifts? Is it honestly just trolling? The game has not changed that much since live. We had incarnates then. They worked 99% same. We had I/Os on live. Some of you may remember. I think we had them for a good few months before shutdown. *cough. designing a super from the ground up, levelling, and running the "Super' is the goal of the game. If you want to go to a classic game where you hunt for a rusty sword and a fish monster eats your face for the first ten levels those exist. This is a Super game. All the story arcs about magic and technological devices and Excelsior type drugs and incarnate wells....we actually interact with all that. Like, our characters get to use that stuff. And it has effects on how strong they are. Super powered game. Just saying.

Isn't the latest discussion about hardcoding no level shifts for Lore and Destiny in DA? ahem. that would (from most individuals standpoints) make something harder. Did I miss something?

So your solution is to hard code an exclusion we cannot get around that will affect everyone negatively who does not share your opinion? Really? It hurts to try to follow the logic. Like watching stressed out commuters drive on crowded freeways. Never know who they are going to try to kill next.

So much of life can be reduced from these statements to hard truth. Do what you want to do. STOP trying to manipulate the world to modify what the F i do. Leave me the F alone, If I dont like something the way I am doing it maybe I will change. DO NOT FORCE me to do it your way. ESPECIALLY if you "believe' it is 'the right thing to do"

you have no global accuracy bonuses and no +acc in Dark Regen, facing +4 or high end incarnate content, when you need that heal, it might not hit. the best heal in the game will sputter. sad panda. you did not build for energy resist too much. that will also bite in late game content. if you take a set of superior nbrutes fury and cut it in half, 3 in one power, 3 in another. that will give you +10% s/l def and within a hair of softcap. Makos are nice sets, but in my opinion they are not solidifying your build goals. you could 3 set glad strike / 3 set sup brute fury to replace both those sets if you have cash (you are tricked out in winters...) much better i am guessing

Cash it not hard to come by. I use the merits tuirned into converters. Rather than sell the converters I buy cheap level 25 common (yellow) recipes from AH that do not require rare salvage. I craft those. Then I convert them until I have something that sells for good money on the auction. A little slow. But a lot of money. There is a weird drop down menu on the enhancement converter upper right that lets you change the type you are converting to. Clunky, but profitable.

So rolled into this Saturday morning 1st level Rogue. 2 DFB Redside, 2 DFB Atlas Park. Posi 1, Posi 2, Synapse, Sutter, Yin, Moonfire, Manti, and a kill all ITF at +4 (I killed a LOT of surgeons) ending at level 41. Tired lol. The character is surprisingly strong. The changes to Energy Melee are noticeable. After playing Invul and Dark Willpower is ...interesting. It holds agro way better than Dark. For one thing the mobs can see it lol. With a little planning it can take any alpha, survive any combat. For mistakes there is Resurgence 🙂 I do not have a build plan. Liberally cramming procs, globals, and sets on from my base storage. (I have a deep set of storage trays, the toon is already rolling in ATOs, Winters, etc.) Was levelling so fast in ITF I ended up just adding SO Heal Enhancers everywhere, then started adding resists. The build at that point had been enhancer heavy on attacks, with one 4set of Reactive and the rest just being held together by procs and globals. Up until that TF the build had not been seriously challenged. running as a 49 against 50+4 it did okay. I was surprised. Am looking at slapping in the Rune of Protection. While the Incarnate plan is to pick pure damage powers, having a solid rotating set of shield that I can rotate in and out of will be key to staying on my feet and dealing damage. Strength of Will, Rune of Protection, and Destiny Barrier will all be playing a role in giving me just enough mitigation to keep smacking crap around. Of course I will be including +Res and softcap S/L def in my build goals. But I know each tough fight will be a inspiration management dance and keeping an eye on those 3 rotating shields.

my dark/dark brute build is on the first page of brute forum still i think. very tanky, very mean....

Welcome back! The Homecoming Team of Devs are really quality too. The community just rocks. And the game....welll,,,,,it is THE game!

My Dark/Dark Brute does fine in Minds of Mayhem. Like, hilariously easy.

this is why i Brute

i am guessing she is not "ignoring taunt" as was pointed out above another brute or tank has already got her attention and is now jumping around while she range attacks him/her.

honestly i never understood any of BMs mechanics. I just try to survive the frying pan and take a few shots. What one of the above posters rightly desribed as "stealing agro and not doing anything with it." This whole thread has gotten me interested in reviving an old Brute from live. it was a ss/will Brute. Going to roll as an Energy/Will Brute incarnated for Damage. Musculature Alpha, Assault Hybrid. He may not be super tanky, but I am guessing it will be a ton of fun.

I am looking for tips on building a Energy Willpower just for smashtastic fun. not tanking. if anything, playing like a fat scrapper. Will be incarnating for more damage rather than more survivability. Alpha will be Musculature for instance. Hybrid will be Assault, I will be trying to eek out survival in the basic build. Just the focus of the build will be as a platform for max smackage asap. I havent run Willpower since live. Any tips are appreciated. Oh, will have Flight as travel power. This is an old ss/Will Rogue I am rewriting for HC!
