Monk vs Bruiser

[Garash]

<DIV> <DIV>I am a 15 Keran (Freeport) Brawler and I was planning on going Bruiser.  However what are the differences between monk and bruiser?  Is it just good vs evil?  I know that monks use more defense and bruisers use more offense, but what that that equate to in the end game?  I would like to have cooler animations.  So if monks have that I would do the betrayal quest.  Any thoughts would be appecaitive.  Thanks in advance... <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Talon</DIV></DIV></DIV>

<DIV>I think the major difference is that bruiser powers work only on themselves were as monks can use their powers on others as well as themselves. for instance a monks heal can be used on anyone where as a bruisers can only heal themselves.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I havent done a complete study of bruiser but from what I have seen they are just as good as monks just a little more self centered which makes sense for an evil character. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  </DIV>
