CORRECTIONS - Invulnerability also has a taunt aura - I did not mention that Shield Defenses and Super Reflexes have click mez protections as opposed to the toggle ones in other powersets

When I played this game up until the final Vanilla WoW update, I played a regen scrapper with longsword called WeedWacker, and he was dressed as a pirate swashbuckler. I 2v2 PvP'd with a controller who maxed buffs to my hp regen and running speed. To say that we were unbeatable is an understatement. It's important to keep in mind that this is before the age of modern PC's where everyone has a dedicated graphics card, so he was able to literally kick people offline by boosting their run speed beyond their computer's capabilities... and me? Well, I was a regen scrapper. We couldn't be killed except by each other.

Great information, nicely presented

very accurate and well said

Just moseying around. Dark armor may not have a taunt, but it's myriad of aoe dmg toggles will draw aggro.

Sorry, I dont see it. You get 4 armors, 1 Heal, 1 DoT Toggle, 1 Rez, 1 Toggle that Fears (fear can cause enemies to run), and 1 toggle that disorients (only applies to minions and costs HP).

Hey I made a scrapper with savage melee and dark armour is this a bad build ? I seem to get drained for endurance and get killed fast in farming what are the correct enhancements for this build or is this just a bad build ? Thanks

Not a bad combination, Dark Armor consumes a lot of endurance. So I would suggest going for endurance reductions enhancements. You can get the power physical perfection too for some extra recovery. You can slot stamina and physical perfection with recovery enhancements, maybe 1 performance shifter: Chance for +End as well. You can try to invest in a Miracle +Recovery or Numina's Convalescents +Regen/+Recovery as that should boost recovery as well.

Trying to theory craft damage monster. Was thinking ice melee fire aura scrapper. Ice patch into burn. Plus ice has two nice aoes. Thoughts?

Its not a bad idea, (as in, I've thought about this before too), I don't know how effective ice patch is though. Like, I don't know if ice patch has a weak KD and I am not sure if its enhancable. It also may be worth taking into account cast times, which if its too long, may make it less desirable as the damage output could be increased on a different primary. As for the other AoEs, they are ok.

@@psychocop2481 is there another secondary that you would recommend? Fire Def is the most agressive as far as damage. but leaves a lot to be desired for survivability. i know ice patch does wonders on minions n LT's. not entirely sure how it would effect bosses. i remember it being quite powerful.

@@aaronhymes123 Fire is by far the best on damage, though it lacks survivability for defenses, and lacks a taunt aura for scrapper farming. I would say both Bio and Shields both give decent damage (not anywhere close to fire though) and good survivability, and a taunt aura to keep groups together. Ice/Fire does give you that benefit of keeping groups together through Ice Patch, assuming its actually good at KDing. Assuming Ice Patch does work on bosses, it probably would be a great way of boosting survivability as well.

I still think that scrappers need help, in my opinion a Brute can do more damage and tank as well, 5/10/15% crit chance is not enough to be honest. Brutes in general are way too OP, making Tankers and Scrappers feel redundant.

Considering that scrappers do x1.15 melee damage, have crit, with 500% max damage, I think overall, it will outdps brute. That being said, brute certainly will outsurvive it, and brutes do quite well in damage, so I would agree that brutes are OP. Not sure where tankers fall into this, they have relatively low damage comparatively (at least based off live, which is what I am basing my research off of) Here is one of my sources that would also confirm my belief that scrappers will pull ahead in damage www.reddit.com/r/Cityofheroes/comments/caqiei/differences_between_brutes_and_scrappers_numbers/ Specifically this part: "At 500% damage (with a base damage of 68.82), Beheader on a Scrapper would deal 344.1 damage. At +775% damage (with a base damage of 41.71), a Brute's Beheader would deal 323.25 damage. Critical hits will allow the Scrapper to pull ahead further. " Hopefully you find that helpful.

I made a Fighting pool Brute but almost made it with a Scrapper. I wasn't sure if a Scrappers Inherent Crit ability would proc enough to do good damage with Boxing, Kick and Crosspunch though.

Most powers are 5%, so I am pretty sure fighting pool powers would fall within that 5%. Do fighting pool powers generate fury?
