- Stat spread

• DEX > STR > CUN > CON? If considering Grappling
• DEX > CUN > STR > CON If not going Grappling at all

- Good talents to prioritize:

• Touch of Death for damage
• Axe Kick to make enemies braindead if not saved against, use against elites randboss
• Flurry of Fists and Double Strike should be on 4 points, due to 1.3x Mastery 4 points will let them proc the effects
• Combination Kick for sustain stripping
• Haymaker is good damage

- Keep an eye out

• Butterfly Kick and Concussive Punch don't offer much better damage than the above listed for damage scaling when put in points
• Exploit Weakness in the Cunning / Tactical tree only affects physres

- The grappling tree:

• Extremely good for 1v1, damage mitigation is nice
• Crushing Hold to 4 points for all effects
• Shut down mages and casters with grappling, dig zigzag to make optimal layouts to runaway if grappling fails to go through, and fight 1v1

- Races for the class

• Halfling / Dwarf: Bread and butter melee class compatible races
• Shalore: Save up points from Blinding Speed

- Prodigies

• Swift Hands
• Flexible Combat : good damage
• Maybe ICCTW / Superpower
