If it is, in fact, option #3 that is a complete and utter BS justification.Why should Brigands have to invest AA points to get what every other class in the entire game gets for free.Its the same thing with Brigands compared to other DPS scouts when it comes to percentage based deagro abilities.Assassins, Rangers, and Swashbucklers get percentage based Deagro for free, only Brigands MUST invest AA points to acquire a percentage based deagro (both in the old KoS tree.. which is useless in everything else) and in the new Heroic tree.

Lol, and here I thought that rangers and assasins are the DPS scouts. Bards utility scouts.  Brigands and swashies are the scout hybrids like brawlers for fighter classes, summoners for mages, and druids for healers.  Hybrid classes should not parse as well as the "pure" dps classes so not sure why brigs and swashies would want to other then for the "glory" of seeing their names on top of the parse, lol.

The lack of deaggros is a pain though that summoners and brawlers dont have (fd is a good deaggro for brawlers, lol) and druids are too gimped to worry about drawing hate usually unless its a fury which is getting plenty of deaggro from mage group buffs.

Then again, havent seen a good dps parse (probably cause I havent been looking at them lately) of brigands/swashies compared to other hybrid classes. If equally geared and skilled and the brigs/swashies are being out dpsed by a big margin by the summoners, druids, and brawlers, you need a bump up in that department for sure.

Its a shame that my brig didnt get a self magic resist buff like the other classes. Hope its just an oversite.
