Im seriously thinking about going full heavy, with only the armor light + fists. If so I can still switch to dagger to do let's say ribstrike to debuff a mob/boss/player.

My question to sins who are 60+, do you use skills often, like puncture wound,slipstream,tc etc or is it mainly just spark + normal hits?

    Most often used skills are
    Powerdash, inner harmony, bloodpaint, ribstrike, rising dragon strike, tackling slash, wolf emblem, deaden nerves.

    If you use fists, you'll have trouble chaining standard skill combos properly (wolfemblem->spark->harmony->powerdash)

    Also, I wouldn't recommend going fist unless you are confident you have the cash to get 5atk/sec.
    The chillum is sometimes referred to as a chalice, based on a quote from the Biblical book of Deuteronomy. Thanks and praises are offered to Jah before smoking the chillum.

    Sparks+normal hit.

    BTW. Daggers do better DMG. And to be honest I don't recommend this build... It sick but It's ur chocie.

    I don't use many skills. I just auto attack enemies. >_> I really don't even use sparks, bad habit.

    True daggers have more damage then the fists, but fists hit faster.
    Fists + -0.15 int and daggers + -0.15 int >> nearly the same dps.
    The only thing is I get much lower damage due to heavy armor. And to activate wolf emblem etc, I just have to click 1 button and got my daggers on and switch back.

    it all depends on what is easy to get really. in the end daggers will be better but f you can find a pair of fists with -.1 int easier than you can daggers with -.1 int then fists will do better damage.

    it also depends on how much -int you currently have

    Fists dps will be nearly the same as daggers + dagger devotion. ( both same amount of -int.)

    So Its just if I can find a nice higher lvl fist with -0,1 I should go fist.

    Most answers above arent the answer to my real question :), it was, do 60+ still use a lot of skills to kill mobs or is it mainly sparky + normal attacks.

    Fist even with -0.10 interval wont do enough over all damage compared to dagger unless u r a HA sin, as fist damage depends upon str and dagger damage depends upon dex.

    Lastly even if u can afford interval gears u would still do better damage with dagger compared to fist with those gears if u r a dex built sin.

    A fist build with enough dex for the fists and the rest in strenght compared to a dex build sin, then fists will outdamage dex build sin ( even with crits taken into account). That's when the fist got -0.10 interval more, otherwhise the dmg is nearly equal.
    If u dont got -0.10 interval more then with a dagger build, the only reason to go fists is that you get heavy armor instead of la.

    HA = Heavy Armor.
