    You could easily wear tt 70 gear. Wear Legendary gear for your level, most molds can be bought for 5~20k. Or just ask in faction, people give away free molds. Most people npc molds.

    The issue is not charms or vit. I believe it is how you handle mobs and what mobs you are targeting. I never put a charm on my bm, except for tw. PVE = waste of charm for me, since every twitch ticks my charm in instances due to my low hp. Since i never had a charm on, i learnt how to alter my play-style to work without bp and charms. Vit is not your friend. Vit means you have more hp but the cost is too high, because you hit for less. Str is your friend, the quicker the mob dies, the less hp you need to have. Next time there is a restat sale, get a 25 points restat note, and restat away the vit to str and see if the difference helps.

    Merchanting is the easiest way to make money, just need to find a need and fill it, and make sure the prices are competitive. Grinding dq got me 5m when i lvled from 20 to 70. I also did lots of dragon quests. Might want to do dragon quests, make the low lvl bracers with -int and sell those to people.

    ok gotta add... I stopped playing long time ago now and never did get r9 and into that kinda crazy endgame gear.

    at around lvl 90 I was axe only BM after finding out during the first 90 levels that pole or sword were in my opinion quite limiting (both in terms of solo work and most importantly in finding squads that would accept a bm that did not use axes)_ I even said that I would never get myself a set of fists/claws and be like ev1 else ( things changed lol)

    I have to say that when I stopped playing my bm was in fact a 5.0 "cookie cutter" bm with decent (mostly HH99) gear and 14k hp with good survivability (was able to solo most instances until they changed the BH bosses and HH) (but could still tank all if the need arose)

    if I had limited myself to a pole or sword build with lower str and dex I would have found life extremely diificult at lvl 100+ because finding squads for anything would have been next to impossible (so farming would have been a nightmare)

    I guess what I am trying to say is that , there is no problem with trying to find the build that you are comfortable with but, with the way the game is designed and the mechanics of it, eventually most people find that the current and most widely accepted builds and char designs are the most efficient and will enable you to continue to enjoy your BM at end-game

    w/e you choose you need to be happy with and good luck but I kinda have to agree with Mal and Saku on this one, the "cookie cutter" build will allow you to continue to farm past lvl 100 as well as be a very succesful addition to your guild in TW and group PvP
