Theif Advise

[Terayon]

Im curious, I went theif line for first 25.. but i can't decide on second line, advise?

Edit: I know thats rather vague, so let me clarify, I solo quite a bit.. not by choice just lack of groups. I want to beable to switch back into a DPS mode from soloing and vise versa.

IMO the INT line for Brigands sucks ! If you do solo then I would go down the AGI line first for the "Walk the Plank" which turns the mobs away from you allowing you to get in a back attack. Combine that with Black Jack and Sap ( I think it is) and Cheap shot you have a good couple of sec to get off your back attacks. As far as the 2nd line I would go with the STR line for the Melee crit and Tramatic Swipe. Just my 2 cents

The STA line works nice with it.

As a 99% solo player I can tell you that IMO Int is incredible. I understand that there is virtually no use to any of the skills until feign death but having feign death allows me to go anywhere with no risk of death. I can't tell you how many times it has saved my life. Lets also keep in mind that it has 100% success rate.The greatest thing about it is the ability to split mobs and allows us to kill what we could not kill without it. This also overcomes the Brigands biggest shortcoming which is their ability to deal with multi mob encounters.As far as which line to take with int. I think agility is my favorite hands down. Walk the plank and sailwind are awesome and considering that I spend most of my fighting with the mobs back to me, Avast Ye procs like crazy.I have specced and respecced my brigand a bunch of times and my results keep bringing me to the same conclusion. Having feign death is just too [Removed for Content] valuable to pass up if you solo.

thats fine, I dont solo with my brigand that often so maybe the INT line would be nice for solor's. When I do solo the STR and AGI lines IMO are money ! I mostly either group or 2-box with a warden so I'm speaking from a grouping stand point.
