New Bruiser - Hello

[megatra]

<DIV>Just wanted to say hey.  I'll be a frequent poster on the bruiser forums here. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  Got bored playing my 50 SK so I had to start some type of alt. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Bruiser seems really fun. The role is similar to an SK being a dps and tank type, SK obviously more tank type than dps type. Plus bruiser kicks out more DPS. I am betrayed Halfling and so far there isn't a Halfling bruiser on my server. <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I wanted to go Monk originally simply because it was easier on the eyes and had cooler looking arts. But then I figured I should be different and betray this halfling and be a little [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] kicker <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> Plus i'm so used to freeport side from playing my SK.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyway so far I'm level 19 and about 60% away from a last name and the start of my bruiser career. Last night I got the art Rapid Swings and used it and said Wow, that is cool as hell lol... I really hope that line of arts goes all the way up to 50. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>But right now I'm looking forward to bruising when i'm not on my SK raiding.

Welcome to the bruiser class.  you will have a lot of fun, I group with a sk a level or two higher and he always tells me I hit too hard and it is hard for him to keep aggro. heeheehee.  Love rapid swings as well.  <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>hehe if that SK is 40+ and losing aggro he has problems <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> a good SK should only be losing aggro to wizards and good warlocks on pure damage. we have VERY good taunting abilities. of course we can lose it easily to a berserker or bruiser if they are taunting but in a normal group SK's shouldn't lose aggro to other melee. however in a group with my bruiser i am pulling aggro from warriors with my attacks but its early in the game and hate control is kind of skewed compared to high level. i am not interested in tanking with my bruiser, just dps and tanking when absolutely necessary. i am going to focus entirely on str and agi and make this guy put out some beatings. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>
