Well alot of people say that the fist are the weakest weapons.In some cases maybe but the thing about the fist skills is that you can use them unarmed. Thats the trick there. You see, the fist skills are actually better for giving your other weapons a buff. What i do is unarm myself for a sec and use cyclone heel than switch back. Now my sword/pole/ axe has a 12% atk rate increase. Drakes breath bash also gives fire damage to my weaps, which is sorta good for soloing. Of coarse in the end believe it or not, the fists may not do much damage but after a long period of battle(say a boss fight)it is the fists that do great damage.Plus the dexterity also gives you a higher crit chance and better evade than axe users(i have 125 Dex and barbs make a hell lot of misses on me). However it kinda sucks how Dex doesn't increase the attack of fists like daggers. b:pleasedb:victoryb:cute

    wth troll? I had to check to make sure the date on this wasn't from 2009 or posted by Lindura.

    Oh, he's from Archosaur server...


    Anyway, fist are your highest dps weapon other than daggers. They don't his as hard as other weapons but their attack speed makes their damage equal to, and when stacked with -int gear do more damage than any other weapon a bm can use.

    Btw, cylone and DBB are rarely worth using anymore for demon bms. Cyclone is worth it as an aoe but for the most part the 2 second cast time doesn't make the aps increase worth it since you are not attacking for 2 seconds. DBB's fire damage boost isn't worth it unless the mob is physical immune and is better spend HFing or sparking. The removal of channel canceling pretty much removed the usefulness of those skills.

    The sound effect of DBB makes it worth it to use it as often as you can.
    101 Sage Sin*/Archer
    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno
    85 Psy/80 Mystic
    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    The one nice thing about demon dbb is that the animation is the same as cyclone heel so if you ever find a use for the skill (1v1 bm's or psychics who don't kite for example), you have a good chance of getting the fire buff without the other player noticing.
