Krissi_Katfig · 01-29-2005, 02:04 AM

As a note I took POPT as my lvl 20 training.I recently harvested a silver and am deciding what to make.Originally I was thinking rapid swings... but now I am considering taking flying kick instead due to the 10s recast, or possibly even bruising strike.Any thoughts or feedback from anyone that has adept3 in these arts?

I took Brawlers Stance. If you are MT, you don't get another upgrade until Sweeping Crane which I think is in the early 30's. Even now at 34, my Brawlers Stance Adept3 gives more AC then my Sweeping Crane App3.

My app3 and adept 3 brawler's stances all gave identical mods. I feel I wasted a silver on that one. I'd strongly recommend against using your rare on that skill.

yea thats what i heard is that the stances are bugged such that higher lvl versions don't increase the effect?

Yipes, I hope not, I recently invested in Brawling Stance... sigh, another thing to pray for fixing.

I would sell the silver, you will quickly outgrow these low level skills, if it was a level 30+ maybe, at 30 you will use very little if any > 20 skills.

I was wondering this myslef, I've managed to find 3 tier 2 rares. Does anyone know a quantitative difference between app3 and adept3? I was thinking I could go with my three most damaging attacks Bruising Strike, Flying Kick and Rapid Strikes. These attacks should be good for quite sometime yet (I'm lvl23 now), I think bruising strike is the first to be replaced by Stumbling Boar at 31. It seems that attacks get replaced about every 14lvls.Alternatively I could sell them for 4 to 5 gold each and wind up with an extra 15 gold. Now I need to ask myself what will that gold get me now that I can use and what will that gold be worth relatively speaking at lvl30. Is 15 gold a lot at lvl30? Is what I buy with my 15 gold going to last as long or longer than an adept 3 skill and will it be of greater benefit?Now that I think about it, at lvl24 I'm starting to make more money now and the equipment that I have, whilst not spectacular, is still good. So I think I'll go with the combat arts.

Rapid swing is probably what I would have went for, it's been a staple of my solo career. I usually tend to stay away from bruising strike because it damages you, and taking damage when soloing isn't efficient. I saw a huge upgrade to Rapid swings though when I went from app2 with appIV, less misses/block/parries on it, and a decent damage upgrade too, I think the range I normally hit with it is 26 - 42 per swing.
