Cremate has an extremely nice guaranteed knockdown, though, that's not really going to factor into Trapdoor times, but makes a hell of a difference when you're trying to deal with enemies that can pop problematic powers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovera Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I'd love to have Cremate on my Fire Melee tanker, but It's hard to say no to the new Combustion and be going around with two PbAoEs. So basically pick whether you want an extra AoE and then roll Tanker, or a better ST and then play Brute/Scrapper. 1 - Simple guide for newcomers. - Money making included among other things. - Tanker Fire Armor: the Turtle, the Allrounder, the Dragon, and compilation of Fire Armor builds. - Brute's compilation of Fire Armor builds. - Brute Rad/Stone and compilation of Stone Armor builds.

electric_emu Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 It is difficult to oversell how nice Combustion is on Tankers now. If you want to maximize Fiery Melee's potential, I think Tanker is the way to go. Tankers don't need Cremate's mitigation and have perfectly serviceable single target options later on. However, despite the changes to power availability the leveling experience is noticeably less pleasant due to limited single target options at lower levels. And it's not like Scrapper/Brute FM is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twozerofoxtrot Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Stone/Fire tankers are really something else. Bring recovery serum while leveling but that's about it. Nothing can hurt you but on the other hand everything dies too quickly to get a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
