Fighter's Guild Skill Line Doesn't Offer "Major Brutality?"

GrumpyDuckling · December 2016

The Mage's skill line has a skill that offers "Major Sorcery," but the Fighter's Guild skill line doesn't get "Major Brutality?"

You can get major brutality from weapon skills, but I don't think the same can be said of major sorcery.

You can get Major Brutality from 2H and Dual Wield, but not from Bow or OH and Shield.

Also why do stamina characters have the only reliable source of minor force? That seems really stupid. Almost every class in the game has a source of major brutality/sorcery, but weaving beast trap into your rotation as a stam character is automatically going to allow more dps for non magicka builds

Yeah, why have things be different?

That's not a rational way to look at it. What other missing buffs do magickal builds have over stamina in this case? Isn't extra crit damage essential to dps in pve? Many magicka builds run beast trap

IKR. I hate how things are different. When I log on my Magicka NB, it's because I want to play my Stamina NB, but with a blue resource bar. Why is that so hard for people to understand?

Don't forget: Not only do you get Major Brutality from 2H, DW, and some class abilities- but the Fighter's Guild passives STACK on top of your damage. You can quite literally get 11% extra weapon damage just by having Expert Hunter and Flawless Dawnbreaker slotted.

While the Mage's Guild ability, Structured Entropy, gives Major Sorcery- nothing else increases spell damage for the amount of spell power with the amount of Mage's Guild abilities slotted.

Both guilds have their trade-offs, though.

1h&shield has less use for major brutality as its considered a defensive weapon line by design.

Basically 2 of 3 stam weapons provide major brutality and I've only seen one good PvE Pure bow build that was any good. The one solitaire magika
Offensive weapon doesn't provide major brutality.

So the normal PvP and PvE stam builds using offensive weapons have one of the melee weapons on one bar and hence have access to major brutality.

Risk reward so. and I wonder if magicka builds use light weight so they would stay away from the target and dps?
