Overview

Brutes live to fight, and as a Brute you revel in hand-to-hand combat. With strong offensive power sets to inflict pain and impressive defenses to take it, you're the best there is in a straight fight. Protracted battles only makes you mad, and the madder you get, the more damaging your attacks become. You do lack ranged attacks, which could leave you vulnerable to hit and run tactics without some allies to cover you.

The Brute's power sets are:

Primary: Melee
Secondary: Defense

The Brute has High Hit Points and High Damage.

Power Sets

Primary Power Sets

* Kinetic Melee requires VIP status, purchase on the Paragon Market, or purchase of Going Rogue.
* Street Justice requires purchase on the Paragon Market.
* Titan Weapons requires purchase on the Paragon Market.

Secondary Power Sets

Inherent Power

  • Fury
  • Brute attacks, and many of their toggle auras, taunt the enemies they affect in PvE. This is similar to the Gauntlet inherent that Tankers possess, only without an area of effect. It is sometimes referred to as PokeVoke by the community.
