Fists : The preferred (pronounce : neglected) weapon choice

CosmicAcidGu · 04-10-2005, 03:49 PM

Dear Devs, as a bruiser (and monks probably feel the same), I'd love to use weapons that use the Fists skill. Especially since our self-buff Brawl increases Fist skill. Unfortunately, there is so little choice of master quality Fists weapon. There is no heritage quest for Fists weapon. I hope you are aware how many heritage items are slashing weapons. Yes, there are 5(!!!!) slashing weapons available from heritage quests. There is no Fists weapon reward for the Heart of Fear quest. All classes get something that is a nice weapons for them. I doubt you really want brawlers to run around with a caster staff. There is no Fists weapon choice on completion of the Deception quest. And this is where I am disapointed the most by the Devs Choice to ignore us again. Yes, I like my shiny baton, but when I buff myself with Brawl, my T5 rare crafted weapons have basically the same damage / delay ratio as the baton. So I'm just using it for the power regen effect. For all other classes, there is a weapon that is the best currently available. Not for brawlers. And concerning other quests for fist weapons: I've done one quest in Nektulous Forest in my 20s that gave me a sub-par Fist weapon reward. That's it. Nothing else. Please allow us to use our preferred skill for combat. thanks Finnster

already found another one: The recipes dropped from the Behemoth include are: Battle Hammer (1H hammer) Greatsword (2H sword) Long Sword (1H sword) Stiletto (DW dagger) War Axe (1H axe?) War Hammer (2H Great Hammer) Fighting Batons (DW staff) Greatstaff (2H staff) Long Bow (bow) Wand (1H caster staff) Priests get the 1H hammer. Mages get the Wand, Scouts get the Stiletto, Plate tanks get the swords. And us? We one again are stuck with staves. Dear Devs, it's not too late. You can still add recipes for Fist items. Finnster

Yeah it is a bit anoying there isn't any Prismatic Fistwraps, and the general lack of raid dropped Slashing/Piercing fist based weapons.
