    BM, followed by barb, archer and oddball HA claw veno(to my understanding, there is at least one LA/AA too who can still use at lv magic weapon). Dunno where to place HA and/or LA sin using claw in that list. >_>

    Depends on your play style. I really love my claw barb, but a bm is equally pretty fun because they are comparatively better at PvP than my Dext barb.

    Really it depends on which class you prefer ^^

    BM cause they have skills that use fists unlike every other class my personal favorite is Bolt of Tyreseus, that skill hits like a tuck and has some of the best status effects of anyone one skill just my opinion, but someone will undoubtedly disagree with me

    My Sage Sin with 1.67 APS was out DPSing a Demon Sin at 5.0. Yah?

    5.0 is awesum and cooooool and makes epileptics have seizures, but for DPS, just being 5.0 isn't that great. 5.0 with Dagger Devotion (and USING DAGGERS) means you get that freaking 75% bonus to your hits (well, it counts towards weapon damage, so it's not really a 75% bonus overall, but it does make a difference). Being 5.0 with Fist mastery and having 300+ Str means you do a lot more damage per punch at 5.0 than a Sin with 160-some odd str and no fist mastery.

    Barbs have Poison fang to add extra damage to fists that they lack from not having a fist mastery, Archers have Blazing Arrow (and if you have Sage Blazing Arrow and are 5.0 Base, it's pretty damn sexy).

    Thus, if you think that being a Claw Sin is Win, then think again. The ONLY time it's ever useful is if you can get 5.0 with Chill on, and since most people do claw sin to get 5.0 as cheap as possible with the least -int gear possible, that ain't gonna happen, and thus, you do less DPS than a 1.67 APS Sage Sin.

    Don't expect to feel useful, or hold aggro, or... Well... Much of anything but waste durability on your Deicides. >_>
