If you had to bench your bruiser . . .

[Voragmar]

What DPS class would you pick?  <div></div>

[RustyB]

<DIV>Prolly a Brigand  because all the classes we have trouble with in duels  such as Defilers, templars, mystics they just own without a hitch.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>but there would have to be some major nerfage on the bruiser for me to even consider rerolling.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

[ganjookie]

I dont get the question...<div></div>

[J4k]

<DIV>id pick another bruiser cause bruisers own</DIV>

[ganjookie]

Oh yeah Bruisers all the wayI might make a monk but would have to betray him at 10..cause monks are teh suxI mean c'mon Gaige moved over to the darkside<div></div>

You mean see what the best dps you can get with another classes debuffs? Brigand easy.Dueling is no way comparable to the pvp system. My Tsunami (as a Monk) doesn't work properly in the arena so its hard to counter many things. Generally don't ever lose to Brigands unless they can snare me while my cure is down but I carry potions, lots of potions for such an occasion. The distance enables them to debuff me really badly and then finish me.Defilers are the hardest due to haste debuff and warding.. before I can eat their ward, re-warded <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>

I benched my bruiser for a Coercer.. If I had t pick a damaging melee class it would be a brig...

Don't bench your Bruiser.  You'll be like me and regret it ever since. :p

<DIV>if I had to bench my bruiser I would probably start playing an Assasin.   I only goofed around with one on Beta, and I see such a wide variance in assasin DPS, I think it's a class that a skilled player can REALLY shine at....  and I'd like to compare myself to some of the other assasins on my server and Their DPS.   But I'm not levelling another toon to 70.... 2 70's and a 68 is enough for me.  </DIV>

I love this board.The reason I asked the question of this esteemed community was that a dear old friend recently came back to the game.  He has an SK, so I was considering, for all of an instant, a reroll (only level 37 now) to a pure DPS class for the good of the group.I am ashamed at my weakness and beg forgiveness.<div></div>

[Gaige]

I benched my bruiser for a dirge, but it could've been worse... I could've went... like SK or something.

[Mantua1]

<P>If I had to bench the bruiser I would probaly leave the game - well ok maybe not but I sure would pout like a little baby and hold my breath forever heheheh.</P> <P> </P>

<P>Tried a few, in the end i'd go with my swash, incredible sustained dps, nice debuffs, tracking for named, can tank in a pinch, crazy burst dps with inspire.

[Quicksilver74]

<DIV>I also have a 70 dirge and it's pretty fun, but not as fun as a bruiser.  I also play a 70 warlock and that is very fun.   I die too much on the warlock though...   </DIV>

[BigRed1]

<DIV>If they ever put in the class I originally wanted to play in eq2, which was beastlord, I would think about retiring my bruiser..depending on how the Beastlord class panned out while leveling up.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Kainn ~ 70 Bruiser</DIV> <DIV>Everfrost ~ "The Horde"</DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#ff0000>Been there, Seen that, Been killed by it, Came back and kicked it's [Removed for Content]!!</FONT></DIV>

[Jooneau]

Wizard or warlock would be fun and a huge change of pace from an SK for [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] sure.
