<p>Is anyone else finding the itemization in RoK poor for bruisers?  Last night after finishing a howling stones instance, my group picked up a quest for some very good weapons.  There was a scout dagger, a great plate tank weapon and a staff for silk wearing casters.  The fourth one which bruisers could use was shared with priest classes and the stats and effects favored the priest classes.  With an exception to jewlery slots that we can share with other classes, most of the drops and quest rewards were either a.  Plate armor gear for plate tanks and/or priests or b. silk with caster stats or leather with caster stats, there has been very little leather drops that are geared for the brawler classes.  We really need more items that are geared just for us, we're the odd class out, the only tanking class in leather and a non spellcasting leather wearer that's expected to dish out some good dps as well.</p><p>~Raithan  </p>

<p>I agree, its horrible most times getting a quest and seeing absolutely nothing you could or would use.  Even the Iksar Shackle quests...Do monks use wisdom items?  Cause I cant figure why Wisdom is on them.  But then I couldnt figure why Swiftails give a [Removed for Content] about transcendance.  Oh well.</p><p> I have found very few items to swap out my gear with thats non-crafted.  I saw the Fungoid Scaled Tunic on the broker today, then realized I hadnt filtered for bruisers and we cant wear it...broke my heart.  I cant wait to see if the Tranquil staff makes it in the game and see it as a +int, + wis caster and priest only...but them Im a pessimist.</p><p> Oh, well.  Least I found a few good things.</p>

<p>I've only played my SK and Warden till now. I noticed there is nearly no good plate at all, and also no str/wis gear for my warden.</p><p>I had the feeling that there is a lot of caster stuff for cloth or leather (furys), and also a lot of chain for melee classes.</p><p>However i thought there was at least much more leather with str/sta/agi then plate at all.</p>

I haven't found a lot of decent leather, but at least some nice jewellery for my Bruiser so far.I've found NOTHING whatsoever that my Mystic can use. (Tons of healer leather though, and tons of DPS cloth)

<p>Yeah, the lack of a brawler weapon on the Anaphylaxis quest is majorly bad.  I suggest /feedback.</p><p>As to other itemization, check out my thread on the Monk forum:  <a rel="nofollow" href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=396125" target="_blank">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...topic_id=396125</a>.  Please contribute!  I will keep that going -- having a thread like that is a big help IMO.</p>

The treasured drops are crap all around and reminds me of WoW itemization <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  With the legendary quests items being broken, Im mainly waiting to get to 80 and see what the group epics aer dropping for us.Although I am collecting the leather heal proc and crit gear to see how well I could solo.I do have a full set of MC dex gear (still using my Dragonscale tunic for better miti) and the **pickachu** claws, and the 70 STR dolls which boosts my STr to 793.  Im missing some adornemts still but that should self buff me well over 800 STR/700 AGI.  STA is lacking (289) but I havent had an issue with the solo mobs/overland nameds with HP. RoK overland and quest leveling is too [Removed for Content] easy.  I thought they would make it tough.. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<p>Well I experienced something today that almost made me burst a blood vessel.  The Final mission for the Danak Marshall in Jarsith Wastes.</p><p> Eight, yes EIGHT reward choices.  2 yes TWO Chain Helms, 1 chain forearms, 1 Cloth Hat, 1 Cloth Cuffs, 1 Plate helm, 2 YES TWO  plate forarms.</p><p> Can you see whats missing?  Not even a crappy healer leather.  I was #$(*ing [Removed for Content].  About 3 of those items were pretty sweet, I says to meself, self you could use that.  IF IT WAS FREEKING LEATHER.</p><p> Very disapointing.  Did the mention the Iksar Shackles have wisdom?  What good is Wisdom going to do me when I get jumped by a group of 3 heroics?</p>
