Maybe I'm missing something but IF a BH comes for me I don't think I wanna be sitting there with no gun. Otherwise hes gonna root, KD, or snare me and i'm never gonna get close enough to touch him with unarmed. So I think its still pretty useless. Maybe I'm missing ur point tho...

My point is that the unarmed pre-req gives us good defenses even when unarmed. In my case, both defenses are 200 when unarmed, rather than the 150-160 it would be without Brawler. Forty points can be a good enough boost to dodge the first shot or cause the BH to miss while you draw your weapon.

That's assuming you're like me. I don't run around with a weapon drawn. It bugs the hell out of me to see people running around in cities with big rifles are swords in their hands. The ranged weapon run speed reduction is a pain, too. I usually don't have a weapon out until I get near my target or unless I'm expecting some sort of attack. Then the weapon comes out, and I do my thing. But if you see me in a city, I'll have no gun equipped. Thus, the extra defenses are nice to have. A defense of 200 is nothing to sneeze at.

OK. I see wat ur saying. My misunderstanding. I guess I'm one of those that bugs u then cause I don't think that I ever unequip my weapon, but the only time I'm really in a city is after coming out of the starport and heading to a hunt or something of the sort
