Thread: Master Brawler/Master Heavy Swordsman???? what the..
Is Master Brawler that important to get with MHS?? What is it for Lunge 2 I am guessing. Will I be gimped using those points in pistoleer instead of brawler?
Thanks for advice in advance

No it's not that important. It's nice to have but since you have pistoleer your skils should be well balanced. If your main objective is to play as a pure melee then master brawler is a definite plus. If you plan to PvP then you'll need to be more careful and use wise tactics if you do get master brawler. Players and Human NPCs will kite you and run away from you.
You can either invest skill points in the pistol profession (or any range combat) so that it won't be frustrating or you can carry a rifle. That way when players see someone with a rifle with 10m they're not so hesitant to run away.
The benefit of Master Brawler as it relates to Master Swordsman is that the two handed lunge you get gives you a chance to knockdown your target from 15m away.
You also get WarCry2 which prevents your target from attacking you for 20 seconds. Intimidate2 has a better chance to stick than Intimidate1 and cuts in half the damage your attacker normally does.
