I posted this under "Guides" which may not have been the correct spot.  If so my mistake.  I copied and pasted my post.  Thank you folks.

 

 

I need help from someone that is much smarter than myself.  I have a rad/fire brute used for dun dun dun........ fire farming.  I have invested a ton of blood sweat and tears into it, and I am trying to find a build I can swap to when doing Task Forces and whatnot.  I know rad/fire is far less then optimal and I know I've read on the forums some people suggest not to make a second build on your farmer and just create a new one.  I want one character for all my time invested.  I am having brain fog when it comes to a build and here is where I am asking for help.

 

I am trying to build an end all be all (within fire brute's limitations lol) for a powerhouse tank.  I want to prioritize survivability over damage.  I am perfectly fine with great defensives and mediocre offensives (yes, I know it's Fire and Fire is offensive oriented).  If any of the giga brained amazing folks that are good at builds have any ideas and/or suggestions I would be forever indebted.

 

Here is a request to be included for anyone that has time to help.  

 

- Travel Power     combat jump/super jump

 

Other than that, I am open to suggestions.  

 

Thank you very much folks

I can't export out of Mids at the moment, but, give this a look.  Melee Def is just a smidge over 45, and S/L/Fire resistances are all at 90% - this took some +5ing here and there, but it's not egregious.  Only change I am thinking of making involves dropping a couple Power Transfer procs in place of Synapse and one or two PerfShitfs; the way aggro works now, I end up sometimes taking heavy ranged damage that necessitates actual HEALING on occasion.  Since my endurance bar never moves, I probably could get away with a few less PerfShifts.

Not a problem; I should say, though, that while the build did/does perfectly fine in Fire farms, I usually just do S/L farms with it on account the P4 aggro changes really expose the ranged def weakness, and ranged Fire attacks suck more than ranged S/L attacks.
