I have a Rad/Fire/Mu Brute and a Spines/Fire/Mu Brute farmers (one on each of my two accounts). I was playing and I thought about having a Fire/Fire/Pyre brute as a farmer - and using Mids Reborn I found that the Fire/ doesn't have many PBAoE damage like Rad/ or Spines/ - which will probably be not as good a farmer.

 

So I started thinking about changing my Rad/Fire from /Mu Mastery to /Pyre Mastery and I like the idea - I don't use Summon Stalker in Mu Mastery, so with /Pyre I get 3 attacks instead of 2. I would appreciate your suggestions on improving this build. Note - I dropped vengeance  so I could take Super Speed for a travel power and slotted Prestige Power Slide with a +Stealth for doing missions when leveling. Here is my completed build:

Somehow, some slots were empty, I had to redo them.

What are you talking about? With Pyre Mastery, you get Fire Cages, Fire Blast, and Fire Ball. That's 3 AoEs instead of the 2 in Mu Mastery at the expense of losing a pet.

Unless you're talking about Fire/ instead of Rad/ or Spines/ - I know that Fire Melee has fewer AoEs, that's why I didn't create one..

You get:
Ring of Fire - ST
Char - ST
Fire Blast - ST, Awfully named since we all understand a Blast should be AoE, so I understand the confusion.
Melt Armor - AoE but no damage and only accepts 2 damage procs.
Fire Ball - AoE

So effectively only 1 AoE at the expense of 3 slots instead of 2 necessary.

Yes, I thought Fire Blast was an AoE based on the name.

Ring of Fire - I was thinking Fire Cages (AoE immobilize) since Mu has Electrifying Fences (which is an AoE immobilize).

Now that I understand this, I agree that Mu is better than Pyre. I would love Fire/Fire/Pyre brute if it made a better farmer. Oh well.

The best farmer money can buy is a rad/fire/mu brute.

I have a vet level 60 Spines/Fire/Mu brute and a vet level 30 Rad/Fire/Mu brute for farming. Personally, I prefer the Spines/ over the Rad/ brute. This could be because the Rad/ doesn't have all the incarnates yet and still doesn't have all the best I/Os.

 

I would have thought that a Fire/Fire/Pyre brute would be about the same, but Fire/ doesn't have enough PBAoEs and AoEs and /Pyre doesn't have as many AoEs that /Mu does.  Too bad, I would have liked to have something that's all fire and close to as good instead of mix and match to get the best. Unfortunately, Fire/Fire/Pyre brute isn't even close to the other two.

Minor clarification.

Once the rad/fire is fully built it definitely overtakes the spines/fire, especially if you're running a map with Elite Bosses as you have another potential source of -resistance to apply which spines can't make up for. Also the casting time for atom smasher is quicker than spine burst, plus with the contamination aspect, you can get a reasonable chunk of extra AoE damage built into the rotation.

 

That said the differences aren't going to turn a 4 minute run in arc 125 into a 3 minute run, but become significantly more noticeable on the larger/longer maps with EBs in them.
