I've been wanting to make a tanky brute that can still dish out damage for awhile.  I decided to go rad/invuln since rad does very nice damage and comes with a heal, and invulnerability is a great chassis to build a very tough character on.  I've got a build I'm fairly happy with.  Softcap to all defense types except psi, 90% S/L resist, 40% E/N, 55% F/C, and enough recharge to be about 6 seconds shy of perma-hasten.  I'd like to improve E/N resists if possible, and psi will be a definite problem with only 18% defense and 20% resistance.  I'm also slightly concerned about end usage.  With accolades, superior conditioning, and two performance shifter procs, I think I'll be okay, but my toggles are quite expensive and a lot of my attacks aren't heavily slotted for endurance reduction

 

Any suggestions for further improvements/tweaks to the build?

Looks fairly good!

Yeah, I'm fairly happy with it overall, but I know there are some seriously skilled optimizers on this forum, so I'm hoping someone can point out some areas for improvement I might have missed.

You've actually wrung a HELL of a lot out of it.

I slapped together one of my standard "Usual Suspects" quickie builds and your build was basically superior on everything but E/N Resist.

It's why I didn't even bother posting the build.

If you want to be godlike, pick anything.

If you want to be GOD, pick a TANK!

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I'd drop the Sup Brute Fury: D/R as you have 100% S/L Res - 10% Res over the cap.
Also as this increases the Recharge Time a bit (6.29 > 6.36s - will you even notice it?) your Proc Chance goes up (again not by much but still).


Move that slot to Stamina and add another EndMod - this takes your EndRec from 3.27/s > 3.45/s (I turned off Incarnates to see the numbers without them. Its 3.55/s > 3.68/s with Agility Core turned on.

Thats a EndUse 1.29 vs EndRec 3.68 = 2.39/s.
Turn on Irr Ground and that goes to EndUse 1.62 vs EndRec 3.68 = 2.06/s - not bad.

 

Beyond that cant really see how to up your E/NE Res without hurting your Def to below 45% (with Alpha active).
