Also, I'd like to ask how many empaths use the "support" verb. According to "support help" I should be able to support a creature as well. Why can't I support my avenger. Is that intended?

Never even knew about this. Although I have to say, wouldn't you automatically "support" your avenger? Since in actuality, they only engage what is engaged with you. Which means you are flanking or behind whatever your avenger is facing (aka: supporting).

I never even knew about this verb either! So many years playing yet so many years just skimming over the white noise that was combat-related posts...:P
I would also second the request to have us be able to do a SUPPORT AVENGER. When I am only using the empath-friendly brawling manuvers or attacking with weapons that are at-level for the critter, it doesn't matter. But, I've been playing around (finally!) with constructs and when I am working up a weapon that is lower than the creature, I'm finding myself always wanting to face and attack the one my avenger is on so I can actually get some hits in. That is a painful series of assesses and attack <number> critter, which of course changes when new ones enter the area.
Danke,

Wasn't meant to be rude. Just trying to add a little humor.
But to be honest 1 rank is 30 minutes of training when your at 80 ranks. So i would hope it would be a few more ranks before an update.

I'll do an update either sunday or monday. Lets get your highest weapon rank out there, brawling or otherwise. Make a note if it's not brawling, if it's just a number I will assume brawling. Just choose one weapon please. The forum format is a pain, so doing multiple weapons would be pretty unwieldy.

Okay guys, let me know if I missed anyone's/misspelled a name or whatever. LOTS of movement this update. Plenty of people taking swings at constructs (hopefully those folks up top will get some 500-700/flex construct for themselves). Added a new weapon category for when someone had more staff sling than brawling or whatever.

Higher in Brawling than that now but I'll leave Sete's name up there as the #1 in Plat until the next update. And to throw something out there:
Sling - 58
Staff sling - 47
Short staff - 58
You really grow to dislike boggles running all weapons through them. Why can they sing and hum in combat? IdonIdonIdon!
Blowing the legs off of Brocket Deer is very satisfying. Painful, but satisfying.

Quarterstaff is my current top non brawling weapon. It's a garbage choice as far as weapon types, but the appeal of killing stuff with a broom is too great.

Brawling help
07/28/2010 12:46 AM CDT
Greetings all. I recently decided to make an Empath and so far I am having a lot of fun with it. I would like to see him as a combat healer so to that end I have been taking him into hogs and such for some defensive training. Now I hear that many Empaths are accomplished brawlers. Would anyone mind posting what maneuvers you use in combat to train? I have been using weave, circle, and bob for the most part, but have trouble moving above learning. I have tried grapple also, but I think I am doing it wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
MILTO
Re: Brawling help
07/28/2010 07:24 AM CDT
You'll have a lot of trouble moving brawling much above learning for awhile. Remember that skills under 50 ranks learn at a primary rate. I wouldn't mess with grapple since if there is more than thing attacking you it can get painful with the evasion penalty of grappling. Parrying with a parry stick helps you learn a bit more since you learn weapon skills by parrying. This may be painful for awhile since parry stinks at low level, but hey.. you're an empath!
I just circle, bob, and weave with my parry stick. You can circle, weave, and bob too. Haven't noticed much difference between the two orders. You can also add a SHOVE at the end. If you do add a dodge afterward to gain position.
