Fists vs. Weapons in EoF?

[QQ-Fatman]

<DIV>Has anyone parsed it in beta? Since most of the weapons DR is lowered, is str line a better choice than dw fabled?</DIV><p>Message Edited by QQFatman on <span class=date_text>11-14-2006</span> <span class=time_text>02:10 AM</span>

No, and you can augment your weapons now besides, which effectively makes up for the DR loss. But even without Augmentations, fabled dw are still significantly better than fists.<div></div>

Also I went into the beta and messed around with all the free AA respecs and you know what i found out. When i did the 4-4-8 STR line and did a /weaponstats they NERFED barehands alot. The speed got increased and overall dmg got decreased noticably as a lvl 70 bruiser. So good weapons are a plus on higher end EoF mobs
