Brawler Archive

I have tryed over and over to finish a destroy mission, however as a brawler it doesn't seem possible. I am now doing delivery missions just so i can have a little cash. Any suggestions pls?

Well this is an interesting question.

Let me give you a few hints that have helped me.

1. Get some vibro knuckles they really do make hunting easier for the unarmed brawler. Althought really were not unarmed. I went from not being able tro handle dark blues all the time to takeing out 3 white at the same time.

2. Pick your missions with care. Learn what mobs are easier to kill but give good exp and hunt them.

A few examples from my short but fruitful history are hermit spiders, Ikopi, and Those rabid kangeroo things.

3. When you come up close to the lair take out each guarding beast one at a time if possible. This can be done using distance, your position to the mob, and well some mobs just dont help there friends.

4. Dont just start wacking on the lair hit it once or twice then stop. Wait for more mobs to pop and then take them out one at a time again. Continue this cycle untill no more mobs pop then finish off the lair.

These are just a few tips that have worked for me if anyone else has any please pipe in.

My character is Johny Longshoot on lowca.

You do realize that you're lucky to have knuckles this early right? I'm sorry but not everybody can get them, so I find it funny how you suggest everybody get them.

Luck had nothing to do with it. I went around and found people that were making the items and bought them . Its not hard it just takes getting to know who the weaponsmiths are on your server

This is really the most important point. If you continue to attack the lair, each hit will generate one or two more mobs (it is delayed a little, so you may not notice it). Every one of these spawned mobs will defend the lair if it is attacked and they have not wandered significantly far away.

My groupmates were amazed at the difference in our successes when we started using this tactic.

Here is what you can do! Before using the mission terminal, equip a range weapon. The difficulty of the missions are based on your skills. You will get a lower difficulty mission that you should be able to do while using melee. With unarmed I get difficulty 10 missions, while holding a pistol, difficulty 6 mission are listed.

I didn't realize that about how the difficulty missions depended on what you had equipped. I'll have tto try that out. Thanks.

Great posts !! That helps alot thx everyone!!

I'm in the same boat and have given up on doing destroy missions and unarmed brawling. and I'm switching to 1 handed melee. its funny hearing poeple say buy this or that and do this or that to get more XP, but if your like me you have capped your XP and can't advance any more until you get cash for training. and trying to get the thousands needed to buy a rare hard to find weapon is completely out of the qeustion. Maybe if i powered played i'd be in better shape but i'm just going to enjoy this slow climb instead.

Good luck

Thx a ton for all the good posts. Good idea's all, I'll try them out

People getting vibro knuckles is not hard just find the weaponsmiths. There are people making them right now as for the money well I found destroy missions very lucrative.
