Hi all,

EDIT:

 

CAREFUL

 

I mixed up the powersets in the beginning, dont get confused as well. 

 

.

.

.

.

 

i am playing around with some ideas for my Rad Ice brute, but so far didn't find anything that 'clicked' and felt right for me. 

 

One build i found you see below, but there is a travel power missing, what i definetly would want to have. 

 

Has anyone any suggestions what would be a good build?

Proton Sweep is barely tolerable on a Tanker because of the increased area. Feel free to drop it on a Brute. And it's filled with Mocking Beratement? (Not that it gets hurt overly much that way.)

 

Do take Radiation Siphon. OMG, take Radiation Siphon. Why is Radiation Siphon not in the build? It is your heal.

 

Is the goal to be a Tanker? Damage does not seem to be the build's raisons d'être. Sure, Irradiated Ground is proc bombed to hell and back.... Hey, is this meant to be an afk farmer?

 

If it weren't 1:00am I might try to put something together. Maybe tomorrow morning depending on my mood.

Sorry, the day got busy and got to this late.

 

What follows is not God's gift to brute builds but it is hopefully a useful first pass. Issues it has are:

  • Gap between endurance consumption and recovery is low so relies on Performance Shifter procs and Energy Absorption. Agility Core Paragon is probably the only sane Alpha choice.
  • Hoarfrost does not recycle in 120s or less
  • Would like an extra slot in both Frozen Armor and Tough for 6.75% more S/L Resistance
  • Global Recharge could be higher.
  • Relies on 3 Winter sets (though may not be an issue for you depending on budge).

You can tweak slots around to reach different goals. As always, I suggest testing a build on the test server before committing to it.

Thats a quite expensive one, but you are right, budget it not my biggest issue 🙂 Thank you for taking the time to not only give some advice but also create a meaningful build !

 

Why are there 5 powers without any enhancement? Are they not worth any?

You can put what you want in them.  Certainly you probably want to reduce the endurance cost on Focused Accuracy. 

 

As for cost, you can replace the slotting of Winter sets as follows until you have the influence for them:

  • Devastating Blow: Shield Breaker (2/3/5/6) + 2 basic damage IOs
  • Laser Beam Eyes: Shield Breaker  (2/3/5/6) + 2 basic damage IOs
  • Icicles: Mocking Beratement

You will lose 5% S/L/E/N Def and 9% F/C Def. For most game content you will not notice the first and the impact of the second will be minimal.

OMG...i bought almost all of it already and JUST NOW realized, that i mixed up the powersets. 

 

It's not RAD / ICE but ICE Melee / RAD Armor..oO. How can someone be so stupid?...yeez.

 

Would you have some advice/build for this combination as well?  🙂
