I've been trying my best to put together a Street Justice and Dark armor brute, but it's proven to be a bit difficult for me given Im not used to this archetype.  Was wondering if anyone might lend their brain?

This is a quick adaptation, trying to combine my Street Justice/Super Reflexes and my Katana/Dark Armor. I'm unhappy that I didn't quite get smashing/lethal and melee to 45%, but probably some fiddling would get there. (Edit: Never mind - I had Hover turned off. LOL) Chain 2x(Shin Breaker -> Rib Cracker -> Heavy Blow) -> Crushing Uppercut, at least while Hasten is up. Throw in an extra attack or whatever's needed when it's down. Spam Spinning Strike in crowds. Use Barrier when defense debuffed, and kill the defense debuffers in the 30 seconds before you drop under 90% resistance again. Should be very hard to kill if you're on point with Barrier and Dark Regeneration. At low levels, chain Rib Cracker -> Brawl -> Heavy Blow -> Brawl. Brawl probably doesn't do much for you, but it at least makes you feel like you're doing something.

 

(Edit - easy tweaks: Swap out Flight for Leaping. Lose the 20% recharge debuff resistance in Afterburner, gain 7.5% recharge in Vengeance. Or add Soul Transfer. Or the Taunt if you want to play tank. Or whatever amuses you. Could also drop Focused Accuracy if you aren't planning on fighting a lot of +4 enemies with defense buffs and to-hit debuffs.)

 

(Edit - swapped to intended incarnate powers)
