Title and description are mostly self explanatory, but here it is:

This is to do with Bashing.

So I overheard some chums chatting about seeing Kaervas whamming up mobs with his bare hands and killing them in some amount of blows. I figured it was just someone's idle imagination, but when I considered the statistical boosts from titan-demigod-avatar, it suddenly seemed feasible. While it'll not ever be entirely effective for obvious reasons, could you at least fight barehanded well enough to be compared with an average master weapon?

Here's a kicker: Igasho titan with strengths in athletics(+2), bear in totems(+1) and geburah(+1)

Discuss.

That's 23 strength, and about 40% crit rate. At that level and strength, it would be quite easy to hunt effectively with just punches and kicks. Mind, it would never be as fast as hunting with proper weapons. It would probably be faster than an Igasho with weapons at level ~60.

Would only be feasable against creatures, though. I hear punch/kick work percentage based against creatures, and thus are much stronger than hits against other players.

Wow! That's pretty cool, although, I'm a Wiccan, so those things don't matter to me, but still. It would probably be cool to punch or kick something to death with that kind of strength, but I dout that it would be very good, just by the fact that it is punching and kicking. Now, if you had some pimpin' artefacts or something like that, then you would be in business, along with all of those cool abilities you get.

But that's just my thoughts.
