bruiser vs monk

[wayward]

<DIV>All i want to know is does a bruiser or monk do more dps and who solos better?    I have  13 bru should i reroll a monk now ?  just who kicks more butt is all i wanna know?  thankyou</DIV>

[wayward]

<DIV>and whats better str then agi or str then sta</DIV>

<P>IF all you want is to be a dps class roll a scout ...</P> <P>Ok no seriosiusly str then sta .. agi avoid gain is bad.</P> <P>Between monks and bruisers its really dang close for soloing i would go bruiser... if you plan on grouping alot and for cheap lvling w/o worring about wpns go monks str aa line. But imho you will prolly find the bruiser more appealing. Just remember we are in the fighter archtype and are not intended to be tier 1 dps heck even tier2. </P>

<DIV>thanx alot.  I have a 37 ranger and  i think the lower bru i have is more fun kinda.    Im on the crushbone server too and at any time there are bout 90 monks on and bout 35 bru so thats why i was wondering.  I was also told that its take alot of agi to make a differance more than it takes sta .  Does this sound right?  </DIV>

<DIV>"U mean STA then STR right ? we got no probs capping Str out but always go for sta"</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>No the accepted premise is that str gives you the biggest bang for your buck.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>One major reason I have taken str on every piece I can get my hands on is - power. At early to mid lvls running out of power is a very valid ongoing concern.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have never regreted my decesion, and still find that I am a hard toon to take down.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Remember this advise is for someone who is rolling a new toon, and lvling that toon - not someone who is lvl 60+ and has the str/agil buff.</DIV>

Str  then Sta  is the best way to go.  Mana then Hit points.   AGI is very easy to come by  with skills like Battle Lust and such

Just to throw it out there - I HATE MONKS!! They are pansy's from Qeynos just like all the other sissy classes from the "good side". If you want to be cool be a bruiser and go around threatening Qeynosians that if they don't hand over their plat you're going to gank em!!! LONG LIVE THE OVERLORD,DOWN WITH ANTONIA BAYLE!For some reason I ALWAYS make Freeport char over a Qeynos. Yet to find one that goes to just Qeynos that I actually like =)
