Had to reupload due to audio cutting out past the three minute mark. Yes, I am aware I said "critical strike" instead of critical hit. Also, this guide is not specific to any server as it is based off the information at the end of live.

    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

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

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

    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.
  • 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.
