A Ponder into ones Bruiser

[patrickhvr]

<p>I just made a bruiser.  Just curious on this.  My woodworker can make batons.  A weaponsmith makes the knuckles.  My tailor make leather knuckles. You can roll bare fisted and get an attack out of STR in the AA line.  I just want to know whats best...so many weapon options and I'm clueless.  Also under my skills tab its shows piercing, slashing, and crushing.  Now if I work on all of those will my attack points go up hence me hitting harder.  My crushing is maxed but wondering if I maxed the other points if this would effect anything.  And one more question, is drag worth a crap in pvp or is it useless?</p><p>Thanks guys!</p>

The STR line is nice for people who havent reached the endgame (means 65+) AND have not the money to buy every 10 lvl new mastercraftet or legendary weapons. If you have the money, and in your case you can produce them yourself, you should go an other way. Not that this tree is bad, but if you have the money for weapons, you can spend your aa`s for things who give you more dps than you already have. The skills like piercing and so on, are in major for hitting your target. If you are lvl 40 for example you should have a max skill of 200. So you choose a weapon with crushing to attack but you skill is just 50/200 you can expect that youre not going to hit targets over lvl 10 (lvl 10 has max skill 50). In reality you hit them, but not as often as you would if that would be maxed. I`m not sure about the dmg, I think it has also something to do with the skill, but i dont know how much. About the drag, I`m not playing pvp, bit i think i can remind that someone sayd this isnt working like intended. Just ask a bruiser on your server or someone else here in the forum can say you more about that. Greets Spark
