Flovian Posted September 5, 2021 Posted September 5, 2021 Hey guys, complete novice here when it comes to building builds. My forte is in the markets haha. I have a Brute I have freshly brought to 50 and he has been a blast to play so far. However, he only has your basic IOs slotted and I want to slap some more meat on to his bones. I have trawled through the a few builds on the forum but have not been able to find a good build to fit what I am looking for. Hopefully you would be able to help. I guess what I am looking for right now is probably something that hit +4/x8 like a hurricane. I have a TW/WP that does just the job but feels a little restricted. It might be a fruitless venture but heck, I am happy even with a basic build to get things running. Thanks in advance guys :)
Erratic1 Posted November 5, 2021 Posted November 5, 2021 Somehow missed the thread at the time, but still replying.... A chunk of being able to stomp on +4/8 is getting your level shift(s) as it drops the relative level of your opponents. Not exactly the answer you were looking for I know, but its part of the equation. As for an actual build, I will in no way suggest that what I am doing is the end all, be all of SS/Bio building but when I am in a, "I don't want to think about it...I just want to punch things until they drop mood" I do turn to my SS/Bio and he does satisfy. I do not have his current build saved in Mid's, but its not far off from the revised build I am posting: Spoiler This Hero build was built using Mids Reborn 3.0.4.7https://github.com/Reborn-Team/MidsReborn Click this DataLink to open the build!

Ablative DNA Siphon are your reactive, "Oh crap!" buttons but Parasitic Aura is meant to stop you from getting to, "Oh crap!"
Neverburn Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 I have recently revived my SS/Bio brute. This is the build I have been using. I would like to hear what others think, I am not really sure the best way to build Bio. I went Spiritual Radial for the alpha for the recharge and healing buff and Ageless for the Debuff resistance. I usually run in efficient adaptation. Ablative Carapace and DNA siphon I use constantly to keep my regen up and as Erratic1 said Parasitic Aura I pop early in a large crowd.

I like the Regen and To-Hit you have achieved, as well as perma-Hasten. Given the offset of 19% Endurance Cost Reduction and being in Efficient, do you still have no endurance issues in Efficient?

SeraphimKensai Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 This build is quite a bit different from how I would build it, but if it works for you, great. Sadly I'm not at home right now so I don't have access to mids. For Bio I usually proc bomb DNA Siphon, I'd probably go with Gaussian's in Rage if I was going to chase set bonuses there as you get more defense and have a somewhat controlled buildup proc on top of rage. I didn't see any fury of the gladiator proc in your build, why not stack it's -resistance with your genetic contamination and double stack rage foot stomp things into oblivion? Here's where I'm really trying to wrap my head around your build, regarding your end use or perceived need of end. Why not your health slots into panacea and miracle procs? Or even a panacea and a numina proc? Also alpha choice, your primary role as a brute is well to smash, so why not musculature? You could go musculature radial to also boost your endmod, and then you could add an extra slot to stamina for a synapse shock endmod/runspeed Io. I understand that bio is clicky, but why chase Perma hasten? Foot stomp already is recharging pretty quick, plus with the force feedback proc you get those infusions of +100% recharge for 5 seconds. It seems like you slotted purple very rare Ios just to spend influence and slot purple IOs to me. I have significant experience with both sets, just not on the same toon, but I guess I could always roll one up as I'm trying to make my next milestone of 125 lvl 50s and running low on combination ideas. Tonight after I get home from work and my mixed martial arts practice I'll throw together a build with what I'm talking about so you can see in mids where I'm coming from.

Thanks (though I had already converted it). 🙂 Yeah, I sometimes forget to turn off Super Jump and then notice my endurance is declining while fighting (if the fight is long enough) and have to shut it off .

You could go musculature radial to also boost your endmod, and then you could add an extra slot to stamina for a synapse shock endmod/runspeed Io. I do have the Panacea proc in Inexhaustible. I don't really have any endurance issues at all and could probably drop one or two of the Performance Shifter procs. I chose to go with Spiritual over Musculature to get the heal and recharge buffs. I did start our with Musculature though so I could switch back if I needed to. I haven't done everything with this toon yet but the higher regen seems to make a significant difference in my survivability and with Fury I don't miss the extra damage, SS still smashes hard 🙂 1 hour ago, SeraphimKensai said: I understand that bio is clicky, but why chase Perma hasten? Foot stomp already is recharging pretty quick, plus with the force feedback proc you get those infusions of +100% recharge for 5 seconds. It seems like you slotted purple very rare Ios just to spend influence and slot purple IOs to me. I like a lot of recharge, I tend to chase it on most of my builds. Foot stomp is up quickly of course but Parasitic Aura is also up more than it's down and I use it often when things are tougher. I did slot some purple sets, the big recharge bonus is what I was after and I might as well spend the influence since it won't pay the rent 🙂 1 hour ago, SeraphimKensai said: I have significant experience with both sets, just not on the same toon, but I guess I could always roll one up as I'm trying to make my next milestone of 125 lvl 50s and running low on combination ideas.

I would like to see your build. Bio has been tough to figure out. I have a scrapper that I just don't feel like I can get right, he's just too squishy.
SeraphimKensai Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 I'll throw together something as I really like bio armor, it's quickly before one of my favorite armor sets, as I have like 5 or so at max level and IOd across any AT that can use it (would love for some Bio Armor themed Ancillary powerset for my defenders, corruptor's, MM's, domis, and blasters to get to experience the awesomeness of Bio, but that's besides the point). DNA Siphon can be used offensively as well, loaded up with a bunch of damaging procs, it makes it like a mini nuke that can very reliably fire procs (though with your alpha that won't work as well as it could with musculature as any alpha that gives recharge reduces the rate at which procs fire). It's a great place for stuff like the Fury of the Gladiator proc as you can apply that pretty regularly and then foot stomp smash.

for a layered defense approach to BIo Armor, which I personally think is the best approach to the set. In Offensive/Defensive/Efficient it gives you: 40.24% / 46.43% / 40.24% - S/L Def 36.09% / 41.56% / 36.09% - F/C/E/N Def 27.23% / 30.42% / 27.23% - P Def 37.74% / 37.74% / 37.74% - M Def 18.37% / 18.37% / 18.37% - R/A Def 48.86% / 63.11% / 56.36% - S/L Res 13.43% / 21.77% / 20.93% - F/C Res 4.43% / 12.77% / 11.93% - E/N Res 30.86% / 45.11% / 38.36% - T Res -0.96% / 7.22% / 6.54% - P Res 339.75% / 339.75% / 379.75% - Regen 2347.95 / 2482.88 / 2347.95 - Max HP 3.71/s / 3.71/s / 4.17/s - End Rec 1.67/s / 1.67/s / 1.4/s - End Use Note, that the Regen amounts will go through the roof with ablative, dna siphon (even though its a huge proc bomb) and parasitic. For example in Efficient with everything running and hitting max targets, your regen gets up to 2061.48%, and you'll have capped absorb (which is 100% of he base hp 1499). I took Musculature Radial to benefit your end mod abilities more, but it could easily swap to the core version for more damage. Judgement doesn't matter too much, I took Ion because I took Mu for patron powers to help proc out extra -resistance, so its theme. Mighty Radial with the Massive Knockup would fit theme wise as well. Interface, Degenerative is amazing, I usually default to that, but Reactive and Diamagnetic are decent choices too. Hybrid for me was between Barrier or Ageless Radial, the reason for barrier would of been buffer against cascading defense failure, but since the set doesn't have DDR normally, I thought Ageless Radial was a more pressing reason for it, the recharge bonus helps spam more foot stomps, but I'll get to that in a bit. Lore you can take whatever you want, I went Banished Radial as it has a summon that is unkillable that gets agro, so it helps pull in more mobs to you. Hybrid, I went with Assault Radial, for the chance for double hitting, I was really on the fence on this one as opposed to the Core, you shouldn't have issues keeping Assault stacks, I just thought of the Radial as essentially another damage proc for each attack to hit again for base damage as energy. The build has 3 Force Feedback procs, 1 is a throw away in Punch, realistically you won't use much but at lower levels it can help you out on the recharge aspect a bit. Otherwise I make use of a proc'd Handclap. This power does no damage, but it procs FF quite a bit, and converts all the KB to KD, so you have a pretty reliable incoming damage mitigation tool now. Footstomp obviously has another one. Recharge wise, hasten isn't perma out of the box, but with a FF proc, will get you there. I used DNA Siphon as a proc bomb that does great aoe damage, boosts more regen, and applies -resistance. Also note, this build uses attuned IO's for just about everything aside of boosted generic recharge IO's and boosted panacea IO's (PvP IOs can exempt to lvl 10 even when boosted), otherwise any other very rares are procs aside of the superior ATO's. MU was chosen so you have an aoe for annihilation -res, Ball Lightning was slotted with an Overwhelming proc to give it more damage but also be another damage mitigation tool. The biggest issue here is since you're using Rage, rage crashes hit defense pretty hard, so you'll have to work on your timing a bit. Rage I slotted with a Guassian Proc to proc an extra buildup into your build. ----- Sorry it took so long to post this, but here you go, this build should allow you to play into +4/8 reasonably well and be beastly. gg and gn.
