Razia

Not sure if she reads this, going to point her to this thread on our SG boards Fista.

You might be right, but I am really happy that there are some sets left that work with minimal IO (or no) investment. SR is one of them, that plays just fine with standard IOs.

I have a plant/earth and I must admit it's so much fun. As far as ST attack chain goes, it's Seismic Smash, Heavy Mallet, Stone Mallet for me. Depending on difficutly settings and recharge you won't need all 3 of them for one shotting Minions anyway.

Uhm what's happening here? Did the scrapper forum suddenly got invated by the defenders or what?

Thanks for all the suggestions. I went with pain, since I have dark and storm already. It's fun so far!

Hi, I am still undecided on a secondary for my Demon Summoning MM. I already have 6 Dark Chars and I hate the tiny range of the AoE Heal on MMs, so I would prefer something else. I was thinking pain but I have no experience with it.

Any suggestions what's working good with DS?

Thanks.

I'm feeling dumb, I cannot find the commands for Demons in your guide Sandolphan

nm found it, I looked in your original post not on the last page

Thanks Werner for the reply. I really was thinking of BS/Wp too, when I am done with my current scrappers. Especially since BS is a bit heavy on end I think and will work very well with /WP. I do have a 50 softcapped SD/WM Tanker, so I wanted someting different and trying out combinations I haven't done so far (I have a fire/regen and claw/regen IOed out already).

It's not that I do not plan to use any sets, just not those freaking expensive ones that you have to farm for. And I usually do only standard PvE content so I doubt I really need softcapped defense. I plan to take tough/weave on my scrappers though.

@TheXor
Thanks, I wasn't aware that Electric Armor is performing that good. I thought it would be similiar to /fiery aura. And I absolutely hate my spines/fire with SOs.

Hi there

I IOed out several chars but now I don't have that much playtime anymore and I wondered what powersets would work with just SOs/Standard IOs or minimal IO investment in normal PvE content. (I am usually more of an Controller/Defender player but started to enjoy melee a lot). I just recently rolled a Kat/SR Scrapper and a BA/WP Brute. Both are working very well for me with just SOs, but my 33 spines/fire Scrapper don't.

So I guess anything paired with willpower would work? I was also looking at DM/SR. How would that work with SOs? Since I enjoy both Scrappers and Brutes is there a powersets that works better for Brutes or vice versa for Scrappers (I'm looking especially at DM/SR).

Thanks for your help!

Of my 50s it's my main Razia (Ill/Rad) and my WM/SD Tank.
From the chars I level up it's usuallyl a scrapper or brute

I'm going to say it again: Warmace and Battle Axe are highly underrated

I think both Warmace and Battle Axe are highly underrated.

Very nice guide. BS/WP will be my next scrapper. You are also the reason that I managed to level a tank to 50 and still enjoy playing it. I just love my WM/SD tank and your guide was very helpful there.

Minor nitpicking, Tenebrous Tentacles don't prevent knockdown. In fact that is the great advantage of that power when immobilizing foes and knocking them down, like most Storm/Dark Defenders do.

Anyone know when the prepurchase starts? Can't seem to find the option on the website.

Thanks.

More customizable options for Warmace

Great guide!
Sorry for the stupid question, but does that mean that Prisoners give more exp than other enemies? I always thought they give less?
