SMH...Fistfighting is OP as F@## - internet was wrong

All the faqs and tips online say fistfighting skill is useless ....ok so I did a quick test fistfighting skill + no points in strength = overpowered early. (consistent 20+ damage with lvl 1 char up 5 times damage of other characters even compared to 20 strength "barbarian" default char)

Apparently no one bothered to test this...and if they did they didn't post the info somewhere I could find it...

....You're welcome...

*related note* fistfighting or equivalent in the other games made by the original developer (they also did bard's tale trilogy and original wasteland) was powerful to OP in those games made no sense Dragon Wars would be different.

char stats

strength 10
Dex 20
Intel 10
spirit 10
Health 18

Fistfighting 18

*edit* this was on GOG version

*edit* you only need one in fist fighting to get 20 damage attacks more points only increase chance to hit it seems and strength seems to do nothing

fistfighting also means you dont have to listen to the horrible audio every time you attack with a weapon and its the fastest way to cycle through fights. thats how i discovered fistfighting was op in this game 30 years ago son. good work though

thanks you don't even need 18 fist fighting a couple points will do and you can save points for other things though most skills are worth it...you could always switch to a weapon later too if you find a good magic one.
