    I don't know how other classes play, but I'm a lvl 30 pugilist and I love the engagement we have in solo combat with having to use the right skills at the right time aka: FF+LS to buff evasion, evade, nail a jaringstrike, buff again before a big attack, evade it lol Can't wait to get flurry and see how that skill works I'm imagining abunch of fast punches

    I wish WS's were less reliant on evasion, and it would be nice if we did a bit more dmg, but other then that, I enjoy playing pgl. It's the only class thats not boring to play for me.

    My main problem is what Raansu pointed out, the fact that the WS is reliant on Evasion (Granted it is based on counter, but come on..., I don't want to have to rely on my Lancer WS, beyond Feint.)

    all in all, I am definitely loving Pugilist.

    If anything, I wish they would make Simian Thrash not requiring an evade to use. Lets face it, pugs are most likely going to be off tanks most of the time, and it really sux that our best WS requires an evade to use.

    Two problems for my Pugilist

    The first one is that Blindside doesn't seem to be working properly. It does give a damage boost, but it is so small that it makes the 1-minute-cooldown skill not even worth equipping, Blindside II not really being any better. If this skill was supposed to be the new Sneak Attack, then it certainly doesn't fulfill its function for now.

    The other thing I would like changed is the way the evasion-based weapon skills are triggered. I understand that you can use those certain moves right after successfully evading an attack, but why can't be use them when the enemy misses us?

    It isn't supposed to be a sneak attack it supposed to be used on normal attacks to get guaranteed crits which it does. It's also an aoe hate grabber. The point of this skill is to help turn a mob to redirect hate to the pug not to stack with WS as a sneak attack

    i do understand that simian thrash is evasion only for the massive damage it does, but my problem with it is that it is also an incap move on the great buffalo and you should not have to go aggro a low level mob while your party fights a n/m just to be able to use an incap on the horn. it's just an opinion, but that doesn't feel very party based to me going to solo a different mob while my party struggles to live. i wouldn't mind it being evasion based for low lvl mobs, but to me it's a major drawback to have to use that as an incap on a horn.

    Pieste, and buffalo both have AoE attacks that you can evade to trigger Simian Thrash.
    The other 3 NMs are in groups so you can simply taunt one of them depending on your parties strategy.
    Though I do believe the buffalo is the only one with an Other Left incap.
