Titan Weapons/ Fire

[Elianya]

Any thoughts on a solid build for Titan Weapons/Fire?

[Gone]

Get your proc/global endurance IO's slotted as soon as possible (Panacea HP/End, Miracle, Numina, Performance Shifter) and race to the level at which you get Consume (20 I think).  Also slot your KB protection IO's as soon as possible.  It will be a tight build because you'll want everything from TW except possibly Defensive Sweep, and you'll also need Tough/Weave/Combat Jumping/Hasten and possibly maneuvers.  You might consider going with Energy Mastery for endurance fixing instead of an epic pool with good AoE.  Good set focus would be to cap S/L resist (90%) and softcap S/L defense (45%) if that is achievable without giving up too much.

Just because you're part of the floor doesn't mean you make a good foundation.

 

...while levelling, skip everything in your secondary except FS, PS, and Consume.  Always be teamed.  At 50, get Ageless Destiny and respec to take everything from your secondary.

This is the ONLY build ive ever actually looked at the global endurance sets for and like other posters have said you REALLY want the numina, performance and the miracle in this build for end recovery. We have a power that's gonna eat 19.08 end by itself if it had no end redux in it

 

 

[jack_nomind]

why defensive sweep? its the only power that ISNT consuming loads of end. Follow through is much more a skippable power since its only up when you have momentum and you cant quite get a cycle of both it and whirling smash in the same momentum sequence. Sweep gives you melee defense and lethal defense which in a melee class is exponentially helpful.

 

TW's best mitigation isn't its Parry, it's flooring enemies before they floor you.  Fiery Aura augments this strategy.  Killing your best ST attack chain -- Rend Armor -> Follow Through -> Crushing Blow -> Arc of Destruction -> Follow Through -- is a terrible idea.

 

Using DS to open a fight is fine, but maintaining it throughout is also a terrible idea; again, the idea here is to floor everything asap, not get into a grindy slog.  There absolutely are builds that can work that way, even on Brutes; Staff or Dark Melee are great for handling that kind of fight.  I wouldn't immediately recommend skipping DS on /FA, but I really wouldn't bat an eye at someone who chose to do so.

 

I *would* bat several eyes at someone who recommended a TW Brute build with neither Follow Through or Hasten.  And who didn't include a data link in their export.

[Head Kraker]

I fixed the data link after I realized it was not there. In my opinion if your bruting, your more likely to need aoe attacks than single target even if your melting things. You yourself did say that a way to get to 40+ defense is a good goal to get to and DS is a power that allows you to get there. On the hasten thing Im fine without it in game and overall I would worry about end since spamming these heavy end powers over and over could get messy. But opinions differ.
