So defensive! Calm down buddy, have a drink....
There isn't any fist-only discussion that I'm aware of on these threads. But I was fists for a long time and liked it. Though if you look up the roguecraft 101 thread on elitist jerks you'll notice that fists tend to fall very slightly behind the optimal combat build (sword/sword). Another option is fist/sword which is very close in theoretical DPS output to sword/sword and can in some cases out-pace it.
The major problem is that fists are terribly itemized in the game while leveling. But now with the new badge loot, fists are viable at 70.
That covers the basics, right?
Also note that capitalization is really, really, cool.
