Brawler Archive

Ok, I'm a 3/3/3/2 brawler, I'm working to master unarmed right now and to be honest I dont really know what to fight. Whats good xp for a brawler to solo and group against? I tried to solo quenkers, long story short, it's not happening, lol. Basically.. What can a brawler solo and get good xp? Group?

Last question...Equipment. I have a sliced VK for unarmed which works well, what about armor? Is it smart to use a full set of 80% kinetic armor (assuming I can get some). If you use armor should you just berserk over and over rather than spam your skills?

It's all about equipment. With a good buff and good Ubese armor, you should be able to take quenkers. Are you trying to use your specials with the VK? I don't think that generally is a good idea. Berserk with a VK all the way. Try to get mid level NPC's at a POI. I find that they are great for grinding unarmed.

Ignore the 80% comp armor, and go for the 74% ubese armor (higher if you can find it) It has much lower HAM which helps tons! The exception to this is if you can get >80% kin comp with low HAM and/or you have skill tapes to use that you don't want to waste on Ubese (comp lasts much longer)

I dont use any specials, just berserk non stop. I do fine health wise on regular quenkers, it just takes soooooooooooooooooo long to kill them. I'll do about 150 a hit with berserk on and I hit fairly fast (2.2 spd VK, need to get them sliced badly). When I tried the other day I kept doing savage quenkers which I can't handle, regular quenkers are doable just hard to kill, if 2 jump on me I have to hop on the speeder and get out of there quick. I was just curious, I've read that people can take out a whole quenker lair in 8-10 minutes yet it takes me 3 minutes alone to kill a single quenker. Is there anyway to target just health action or mind?

I had sliced VK but I had a slicer slice them, the VK itself was crap (high spd, not great dam). I trashed those and stuck with the 2.2 spd and higher damage. Would it be best to get a good slicer to slice my current VK? Should I look around to find a really nice VK already sliced?

Master TKA's hate speed sliced ones, but that is perfect for your grind. You should be able to find those the same or cheaper than unsliced ones.

As for what to hunt,my favorite so far ( have done unarmed 4, 4 times lol) is to go to the krayt graveyard and kill the spawns there. The dune banthas are nice as they do not swarm.

I can fight and kill them, just not fast, not nearly as fast as others say. I take little damage vs regular quenkers, it just takes too long hitting for 150-170 a hit randomly attacking HAM, usually when it dies it has 1/2 Action and 1/2 Mind left...I could flllllly through them if every hit focused on say just Health (can you do that?)

Is it worth it to use Vibro Knuckles with no cert? I assumed that no cert meant it wasn't worth it...

How good should the knuckes be to make it worthwhile?

It is worth it because of the speed. Your best bet is to look for speed sliced ones, may even get them cheap on the bazaar as speed is not a issue for master TKA's.
