The Bruiser is a juggernaut of physical pain, having transformed their body into a vicious tool for inflicting suffering on their foes. The honing of the Bruiser's physical body conveys offensive as well as defensive advantages. The Bruiser is most effective on the front lines of combat. __TOC__ ==Update Notes== *On July 24, 2012, per the [http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/index.php?threads/update-notes-tuesday-july-24-2012-qeynos-rises.530490/ Qeynos Rising update]: "[[Bruising]] has been removed and replaced by [[Recklessness]]." ==Class Hat== *[[Hoo'Loh's Straw Hat]] (67) - [[Kingdom of Sky]] Class Hat from quest: [[Blood of the Brood]] ==Class Armor== *[[Dreadnaught (Armor Set)]] (20) - Armor Questline treasured bruiser set *[[Adept Blood Hide (Armor Set)]] (37) - [[Deathfist Citadel]] mastercrafted brawler set *[[Marring (Armor Set)]] (67) - Quest rewards from [[Cloud Mount Timeline]] *[[Excarnate (Armor Set)]] (67) - complete set drops from [[:Category:The Laboratory of Lord Vyemm Named Monsters|Named Monsters]] in the [[The Laboratory of Lord Vyemm]] *[[Renegade (Armor Set)]] (67) - [[Kingdom of Sky]] bruiser [[Relic Armor]] *[[Wu's Fighting Gear (Armor Set)]] (69) - [[Echoes of Faydwer]] legendary brawler set *[[Indomitable (Armor Set)]] (70) - [[Echoes of Faydwer]] fabled bruiser set *[[Quarrelsome (Armor Set)]] (77) - [[Rise of Kunark]] legendary brawler set *[[Juggernaut (Armor Set)]] (78) - [[Rise of Kunark]] fabled brawler set *[[Abrupt Pursuasion (Armor Set)]] (80) - [[Rise of Kunark]] fabled bruiser set *[[Combatant's Technique (Armor Set)]] (80) - [[The Shadow Odyssey]] T1 legendary brawler set *[[Abandoned Jin Drake (Armor Set)]] (80) - [[The Shadow Odyssey]] T2 legendary brawler set *[[Lava Lotus (Armor Set)]] (80) - [[The Shadow Odyssey]] T3 fabled brawler shard armor set *[[Woven Shadow (Armor Set)]] (80) - [[The Shadow Odyssey]] fabled bruiser set *[[Brute's Irebound (Armor Set)]] (90) - [[Destiny of Velious]] T1 fabled bruiser set == Epic Weapon == *[[Bruiser Epic Weapon Timeline]] (80) - [[Rise of Kunark]] Bruiser Epic Weapon == See also == *[[Bruiser Abilities]] - Stat Overview for Bruiser *[[Brawler Guides]] - Guides for Brawler == Achievements == See *[[:Category:Brawler AAs|Brawler AAs]] *[[:Category:Bruiser AAs|Bruiser AAs]] == Combat Arts By Category == The first combat art in each category is listed.
