Game Update 2 – Brawler

Greetings Galaxy,

We have been very busy working on the first steps towards combat, and to do so we must start from the very basics of hand to hand combat! While fighting with nothing but your fists you gain experience points from killing enemy NPC’s that go towards learning a vast variety of new skills which can be learned from the designated Skill Trainer.

The Brawler Profession specializes in not just barehanded combat but also in a vast variety of One & Two Handed weapons, to long reaching Polearms. As you advance up the skill trees you can obtain new skills with several different effects from Knockdowns, Buffs, and Skill Mods to improve yourself in combat, that is if you have the necessary funds to pay the Trainers. Mastering each of these types of weapons and reaching the top of the skill tree will allow you to become a Master Brawler and also obtain a Character Title to prove it!

While Brawler is currently the only Profession that has fully functional Abilities, we aim to add in even more functionality to the other Professions and Abilities within the near future! We also have the launcher up and running for testing out the various new additions and features! The Blue Frog is also there to provide a vast range of items and options to help further test out existing functions and new ones as they are added. If you are interested in seeing what is currently available, please head over to our Getting Started web page to start partaking in the ongoing development of ProjectSWG!
