Yes. You read that right.

I am literally more excited for my Bruiser than I am for my Guardian over the 20 extra points for the KoS tree.

Thinking of going:

Agi: 478 Wis: 44882 Int: 4488

Faster reuse, AE proc, fairly quick recast 100% AE auto attack and double attack, and melee crits. This will be just ridiculous for any zones with multi mob encounters.

Or

Agi: 448 Sta:448 Wis: 4485 Int: 448

Faster reuse, single target AND AE damage proc, and melee crits. Its the old sta/wis/int DPS spec before the changes now with faster recast.

Over all I do believe I will take the first spec, it will be too good to pass up. 

As for our EoF tree.... Eh.... not much gained beyond what we could already take. Will probably just fill in points and max what was not maxed before and take a couple more support ability enhancements. Monks made out much better as far as places to spend the extra 20 points for the EoF tree.

Yeah that is some nice set ups there. I really think that here is nothing to loose with the twenty extra points that eveyone will get once RoK goes live. I just hope that SOE does not lessen any of the aa's strengths when this all does take place. However I do feel that there will be a change to them with the consolidation of spells and combat arts, but that should only affect the eof tree and not the kos....I hope.

So far there has been no consolidation of abilities for RoK.It was just an idea they were tossing around and have not implemented yet, if ever.

Hey hey - an extra 20 points in each tree is great!!!!  What classes benefit the most though?  Before you spit all over a tissue at your new "options" give a thought about how other fighter classes gain far more from it.

I play the other fighter classes.I know what they have and I know what benefits they will gain.I am by far more pleased with the abilities I will gain as a bruiser.

I see great things combining the Crane Flock ability with either the faster re-use time from agi3 or mantis bolt with crane twirl and melee crits.The ability to proc off of any of those AE auto attacks is going to be pure greatness, especially if you can get double proc enhancers in your group.
