So, according to Elanthipedia, the majority of damaging brawling maneuvers rely on strength. Is brawling worthwhile and effective in the long run for a low strength, agility heavy character?
>>Is brawling worthwhile and effective in the long run for a low strength, agility heavy character?
Only ~290 brawling but with a 30 strength/60 agility character I'm not really feeling hamstrung. I'm more concerned that I feel like I get hit more often when brawling than using any other weapon.
The teeth lands a solid (5/23) hit that pokes the teeth into Turul's rear end (more embarrassing than painful!).

Brawling should have lower defensive penalties in general than normal weapon attacks.. not sure why you'd be seeing the opposite.

It might just be confirmation bias or poorly analyzing my experiences. I'll try to get you some real data tonight.

Any chance it has to do with a tweak Plat hasn't gotten yet? Not sure what that might be though. I don't mean that in any sort of veiled passive-aggressive hint. I really have lost track of which changes we have and haven't received yet.

Oh, yes the Plat sync should be possible this weekend, assuming we can pull another all-nighter to release 3.0 to TF. Probably why you are having trouble :(

Gouge has a hair more defensive penalty than punch. Kick has a larger defensive penalty than punch, but also inflicts a decent amount of additional damage.

Any chance you could provide us an ordered list for the penalties and attributes of the attack/defense maneuvers? No numbers, just ordered comparison, something simple like:
Defense penalty from low to high:
lunge sweep bash etc
Slice damage from low to high
jab thrust chop slice etc.
Balance gain from low to high
etc. etc.
TG, TG, GL, et al.

>>Grim, you can tell these pretty well I think from Punch Help Full etc. It's pretty easy to tell from the defensive hit messaging and balance boost or hit how they scale.
I really don't think that's the case. It's not any better than the app messaging, or combat damage messaging, or mana messaging and those are difficult enough to read that pretty much anyone who uses Genie/Avalon has numbered subs for them.
