Thread: Why are so many people unarmed?

On my own unarmed Brawler, I kill 2-3 even cons in a row. Two at the same time. I can also kill certain yellow cons. And, if you read my post about my Trandoshan, you'll find that I'm doing this at a sort of handicap.
I also don't know why people are calling unarmed Brawlers "weak" or "nerfed."
Care to provide any details? What mobs are you killing? What techniques are you using to do so? Without any details, I find your post difficult to believe.
correct me if i'm wrong, but to become a smuggler you need to be a master brawler, right? all the skill trees maxed?
Also, i don't seem to find many people on Scylla able to train brawler. I'm the Trandoshan called Dark Helmet.
I can kinda see the attraction to unarmed, but I am myself am going for PikeLADY. I just got expert polearms specialization last night, and working on getting master now. I plan on going all the way up to Master PikeLADY. But there's not many of us around for sure, I think I've only seen one other person that carries a big stick.
I'm on Kauri, any other pikepeople out there, send me a tell or an email, and I'll be glad to train you in whatever I can. With so few of us, we've gotten help each other out ![]()

Whoever it was who asked why it is felt that brawlers/unarmed were nerfed...
Two days ago, I mastered Unarmed, and was getting hits while zerked in the mid-high 200's. Transhodans would more then likely see hits in the high 200's and perhaps low 300's. Yesterday, I log on, and low and behold my zerk hits are a piddly 125 tops. Need you ask why I feel nerfed?
To become a Smuggler you need unarmed, pistol andengineeringalond withbusiness fromartisian.
FYI: To become a Commando you need unarmed, Master marksman and engineering fromartisian.
I see the same results.
I'm an unarmed brawler/scout on Tatooine, Corbantis server. I live outside of Bestine (have a house there) and usually hunt around there or Wayfar.
I can take on whites, two at a time even. I always have been. Right now I am about 25K away from Unarmed IV. White mobs include full-grown womp rats, mound mites, and certain thugs. If my bars are full I can take down a yellow con without too much trouble (that includes mutant womp rats, tougher thugs, etc.).
I've also found that not all cons are the same. Rock mites and diseased bocatts con evenly, but bocatts can go down with 2-3 good berserk hits while rock mites take twice as long.
I do sometimes get in trouble when my berserk fails 6 times in a row...
Oh, I am a trandoshan as my avatar suggests.
