LVL 10 combat: brute or defender?
Title basically it. I'm feeling defender, but brute does seem good.

If the Wiki is right and Defender's only bonus is +25 HP, then Brute, no questions asked. 25 HP is like one hit from a purple slime.

But that's one more hit tho.

Just what landwalker said, 25 hp is a single extra hit if you're on the desert mines, not worth it at all.

You don't need Brute since when you have late game weapons it won't really matter anyway, especially if you have Galaxy Sword .

Plus you can stack all the HP from combat level 1-10, figher perk, and defender perk. Then wear some rings that help in combat to compensate for not having brute (Since there isn't really any rings to compensate for not having defender, UNLESS you have unlocked Slime Ring .).

Truth be told you don't need either, they are both meh at best, but between taking 1 extra hit myself or dealing 1 extra hit to things I prefer the later.

The extra hp is worthless, once you learn the enemies you won't be taking any damage in any of the mines

That's like 1 parsnip — i.e., not worth it. :DEALWITHIT:

Pick Brute and bring a little extra food with you.

I think that Defender is literally the worst profession you can pick, out of all of them... >.<

25 HP is meaningless.

So... heal before you reach that point.

If you're so low on HP that 25 HP matters and you have no way of healing yourself, you've already done something wrong.

This should never be an issue.

Still has useful information. Not sure why the age matters.

Because you're necroing a post from literally over a year ago to say "Yup". If you had something new to add to the discussion, that still wouldn't matter, because odds are, posts from a year ago are outdated.

If someone posted the week the game came out, asking what use void chickens had, and there were 20 posts saying "They're useless", then a year later, void mayo is a thing, you don't need to bump the post to say "ACKSHUALLY!" because odds are, over the past year, people have learned about the game update.

So everyone bought the game at the same time? I can't bump a thread? This isn't a factual thread it's based on opinion. Apparently adding my opinion offends you, except I don't give a ♥♥♥♥.
