Monk hand to handFollow

#1 Jan 24 2005 at 12:17 AM Rating: Decent
Does anyone know if there is a way for a brawler/monk to know what damage and delay his bare fists have? I was using two blue katars for a little while and not doing great damage -- 15 per hit at level 17. I got rid of the katars and started fighting bare fisted and I was up to 28 per hit. I didn't feel like I was swinigng much slower but I am curious of anyone definitively knows how good a monk's/brawler's bare fists are.

Is it better for a monk to dual wield 9whether fists or weapons) or use a two hander, in peoples' opinions?

Thanks,

You probably were not swinging much slower - but - you would not have been swinging twice per attack. Put the katar on, and watch the text window not the wold screen, and notice that the damage you do tends to come in pairs. Now do this with bare fists, and notice that it tends to come in single hits (which are bigger).

Basically - your fists are a 2 handed weapon, not dual wield.

As for how to know what your fist damage/delay actually is? Sorry - cant help there, but I think its safe to assume that if you have white or better weaponry - it eill be better than your fists. Even blue weaponrey might be better, although you might find you do more damage with your special attacks when using bare fists than blue or green weapons.

Anyway - go with what you find most enjoyable - to me - that means a Bo Staff :)
