Brawls at legendary difficulty...

Post » Wed Mar 20, 2013 2:15 am

Is anyone else finding brawls nearly impossible since the patch?

I'm not talking about winning them, winning them is easily doable - I'm talking about the bystanders. Since if you stand there and take it now you will almost certainly lose, it means now more than ever you need employ proper positioning and strategy to win; weaving about the area, timing your power attacks.

The problem I'm having is that because of the hugely expanded hitpoints of the enemy in legendary, and thus the longer duration of the fight more bystanders have a chance to jump into the ring and play chicken with you, and EVERY. SINGLE. TIME without fail, at some point in the fight, I'll end up copping one a hit and suddenly it's all http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOPzzWWf06U - The only brawl (out of about 5 different brawls I've started since the patch) I was able to finish was 3am in the morning, down a dark alley so it was just me and the other combatant, no onlookers.

Any suggestions besides flipping out and murdering the entire village every time they get uppity? (Any mods for this sort've thing, I've tried looking)

Ah of course, buffing unarmed. Somehow I forgot there was even an enchantment for that :facepalm:
