Master Brawler is very cool for the skills of Warcry 2 and Intimidate 2. The mix of using 4 classes of weapons is fun too, but once you master your prime skill, using the weaker weapons is useless and only for show. I have been perparing for the CU for months now and finally figured out my possible new template. I really don't want to dump Master Brawler, but wasting the skill points for just a limited few perks seems like a waste. The skill points would better serve in healing or others areas if needed. The CU will effect alot of TANK players that use Intimidate 2 and Warcry 2 for quick ground zero aaasaults. Since combat is changing, it seems Intimate 1 and Warcry 1 will get the job done if combat is quicker and healing is perfered since buffs will be reduced. If Master Brawler modifies Berzerk to work with melee special moves at Master level and provide unarmed toughness when going melee crazy that would be good. Fix a few things and then maybe I will keep it. I will say alot of new things look promising. Any advice?

I don't think any of us have enough information on what is going to happen after the CU to give any kind of opinion or advice, and if they did it will be mostly just speculation and random guessing. One of the cool things about the CU coming is that we are all going to have to learn everything over again together and see how things work in the new system.

Never go on assumptions. Most of us have no idea what will really come from the CU other than whats been posted and frankly it isn't much. A few pictures of armor and weapons doesn't reveal much of whats to come. As the above poster said we'll all have to learn the new system so you shouldn't worry till it happens. And from what I understand we will all get the chance to change our template one time so at least thats to our benefit. No need to start grinding now.

Steelhead, on Radiant server, swears by Master Brawler because of the long range on the Lunge attack. That Lunge at Master Brawler is a KD, not just a posture change attack. So, if some panicked or fleeing PvPer is running, you can KD him and stop him at a longer range than the regular lunge. It can also halt fleeing mobs that have little HAM left.
Also, Steelhead, LOVES the Intimidate 2 because it SERIOUSLY reduces the amount of damage you take from the bigger mobs: Krayts, Nightsister Elders, Gorax, etc. It lasts a lot longer than Intim 1, so you have to use the special less often.
Master Brawler ain't too shabby.
Who knows what these dunderheads are gonna do in The Great Combat Nerf though?
