Bruiser AA path question

[ekNinten]

<DIV>Okay, So I'm currently level 31 with 15 AA's or so. 1 In the bruiser run speed AA, the rest in KO's. Planning to go up to Drag ASAP. My question is after that what should I go for? I'm trying to pull off most DPS, while not specifically dropping tanking abil. if you know what i mean.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks, Krix</DIV>

<DIV>I would suggest you invest your initial points in the original AP's first.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The ones from EOF are less DPS centric than say double attack or critical hits.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>The EOF lines are useful, just not as drastic in effect at 4/4/8.</DIV>

Agreed, my bruiser went 448 in the STR line and 448 in the INT line to start. It's 96% double attack and 18% (I think) crit chance. It's nice.<div></div>

<DIV>I cannot agree more.  Get as many points into STR as you can, ASAP.  It is like constantly upgrading Fabled Weapons.  The STAT hit you take losing those weapons does not even compare to the increased DPS.  I have, for fun, taken on even cons, and fought them using no CAs except heal and the Crushing debuff.  Usually toward the end of the fight I might have to launch a CA or two, but other times, not.  Try standing there just swinging a couple of batons and no more.</DIV>
