I have my mastery of Unarmed.. It's going to suck.. I duel someone.. They start shooting at me and running away.. Of course they can shoot directly behind them when they're running. So they run and run and I chase and chase and they shoot and shoot.


I can never catch them to hit them. Sure they don't hit me with every shot as they get a penalty for running and shooting but who cares.. They can do it all day if they need to.


Why in the bloody hell does everyone run the same speed? And how in the hell can someone shoot directly behind themwhile running at top speed?


Any Beta testers with further experience in this area?

Please dont post about this, we all know brawlers get kited. But you can do things to avoid this, jump inside a building, hit him with lunge before he gets to far away. And anyother tactics you can think up of.


But as it stands, brawlers are NOT meant to be PvP against ranged. Its ludicris to think so. Fight only other brawler or melee types.

It would probably benefit you to have some scout skills as you can run up hills faster than your opponent can, that way catching up to him can be somewhat easier.

You can always learn how to shoot back.

Well Im no expert on PvP, however I did duel a pistoleer. I forget but he was a master or expert on it. I was halfway to expert, so I only had my intermediate and advanced unarmed skills. Let me tell you something.


I BEAT THE $H^T outta him.



All I had to do was get close enough to him and use unarmed stun, then use berserk. He tried to kneel down to exploit the to-hit bonuses, but I just took him out with berserk. I started getting body shots galore and he just received major punishment. I mean, this kid could have been a n00b, but I still won, and Im no veteran either from the beta or anything.

MoparManiac,


No offence but the only reason you beat him to a pulp easily was that he was stupid to kneel right in front of you.


Any decent ranged player would know to run and kite the melee players in duels/PVP.
