RE: Farming Scrapper 

Alot of it depends on what it is you want to farm.

Demons? Spine/Fire.

Family? Spine/Invuln or Spine/Regen.

Mother Mayhem's minions? Spine/Dark.

Spine/Regen will do alright against most mobs, as long as you know what you are doing. It does better once you can get IO sets to boost your HP, Regen rate, and Recharge. But then, if you are doing this to make money for other toons, why would you spend a ton of money to *make* a farming toon? Decide what you want to farm, then build appropriately.

W.P.

RE: Farming Scrapper 

why not a fire/fire when it comes out? you will have all of the AoE dmg of a fire tank, and then some since attacks are your primary

Scrappers are getting the Brute version of Fiery Melee. They'll only have Breath of Fire and Fire Sword Circle for AoE effects. Granted, this is one less than what Tanks get (they also get Combustion), but you also have to figure the DPS of those AoEs. Spines has a toggle DoT in Quills, as well as having Spine Burst, Ripper, and Throw Spines for AoEs. Spines has the AoE damage down pat compared to Fiery Melee.

RE: Farming Scrapper 

Wait, so I have a question.
would you do more damage with a set as your primary than as your secondary? I mean, If I have DB as my primary as a scrapper, and I had it as a secondary on another toon, which is a tnak, would the scrapper do more damage unslotted?

RE: Farming Scrapper 

Actually, its not necessarily primary/secondary, but more about the base damage values of the AT.

Blasters sit as the mark for comparison, with 100% damage (112.5% for ranged, since the recent blaster defiance change). Scrappers have 112.5% damage, Tanks and Defenders have 75% damage, and Controllers have 70% damage. This is all If I Recall Correctly, but as I remember it, those are the numbers.

When it comes to defensive sets, thats where primary/secondary takes effect. A set as a secondary will be at 75% of the values it'd have as a Primary. So, Fire Armor for scrappers will be 3/4 as tough as it is for Tankers, while Dark Armor for Tanks will be 1/3rd tougher than it is for Scrappers and Brutes.

W.P.
