Bruiser Love

[SteveS]

<div>I just dinged 20 last nite on my wee ratonga bruiser just in time for the whole AA taking place.</div><div> </div><div>Ive heard different pple take diff stats on their bruiser and that STA was important to get because we get alot of STR and AGI off of buffs.</div><div> </div><div>Would u say thats a fair comment?  Or should i still try to get STR?</div><div> </div><div>People will say "depends on how you play" i know.  Stamina is important for tanking and Strength for dealing damage.  But id like to hear from any bruisers who think different from :</div><div> </div><div>1- STA</div><div>2- STR</div><div>3- AGI</div><div> </div><div>Thanks</div><div><img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></div>

<div>Go Stamina.  I did.  Never regretted it.  I solo'd most of my levels when I was groupped, I tanked.  Lots of gear has STR&AGI on it, + you'll get AGI from two buffs, and STR from one.</div>

<div></div><p>thats good to hear <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p> </p><p>I am mostly grouped with a Guardian so i let him tank away and stick on my offensive stance and try to beat things up</p>

Way too many bruisers on Nagafen.  Seems every other tank is one.  Last night we had 3 bruisers and 2 brigands in a group....they all want to go STr AGI.  Im cool with that.  Just let me have the STA gear :p<div></div>

[glumlor]

Yeah insane number of bruiser and brigands on the other US server also.I believe it was like 60% of popuplation was one of those two classes.  I decided to go with coercer this time..<div></div>

<div></div>I got hit with the server move to and on Grobb there were hardly any bruisers as was evident by the fact that you rarely ran into one, people asked "what class are you? Bruiser?  What's that?"  and  that bruiser masters were easy to find on broker for reasonable prices.  We had too many Zerkers.  Now that we've merged with Everfrost it's crazy how many bruiser there are.  Now I see maybe 1/8 as many masters for sale, bruisers pass me left and right and Zerkers actually are much less common...zerkers...less common than bruisers...zerkers <shakes head>...zerkers..   I saw 2 pages over 45+ zerker masters for sale, saw 4 bruiser.  My world is now upside down because on grob it was easily the opposite.

[glumlor]

I saw a fair share of bruisers on grobb before merge..Afterwards I see more abilities available on merchant..I never have luck finding masters <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />I'm 48 , perhaps your lower level and thats why your having better luck with masters<div></div>

<div></div><p>I spent 2 pp on 9 masters last nite ranging from lvl 22 - 38</p><p>10 gold i paid for one of them too which wasnt bad. (im on runnyeye)</p>

[glumlor]

Wow thats nice <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />I saw 3 masters on broker this morning for my level range.. One was 2p, one 1p and another 30 gold.None of the masters were one I would be interested in.. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />I need stances, ignore hurt and mez more than anything else <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>

<div></div>In group PVP, Guardians purely own.  Guardians Sphere, Major group protection skills, plant, anchor... yeah- they rock.  A group with a Bruiser tank vs a group with a Guardian tank in PVP will get owned.

Good idea as you can sometimes get some good bargains, but yeah I searched for 40-49 and saw 3 masters this morning and two of them were same spell (meteor punch).<div></div>

[DarkMirrax]
