What Happened to UC??? (in General)
You never hear people talking about UC as a good strategy...does anyone even us it anymore?
I do. It winds up being a very difficult strat to use, as you have to spread your XP very thinly.

*adores NS's The Iconics 3e*
Anyway, I'm still running a UC team as well, called Miami Vice. It's fun! I'm sure they're are some more characters out there who use it.

Sounds to me like UC needs some lovin *wink*

Wait, there are more!
I think Jon didn't give it some love, because it's already quite nifty (when used right). All that defensive DX, for example.
i used UC and when i start my ncb i will use UC aswell (if i ever can start it)
UC is a very niche strat. It's not that it is very underpowered, but more that it just doesn't appeal to a lot of people. One thing to keep in mind with UC is that you pretty much HAVE to put all of your WA into your ranged weapon. If you don't, you're wasting a TON of potential.
Now that the RBF is very different in terms of how it works, I'm not too sure what the best ranged weapon to use actually is, however. Possibly a SOD might be the best, now that you don't gain as much as you did previously by nuking the other guy's ST.

I use UC. I'm sure my numbers would be better if I put more into picking a better fight list.

If something can be done on the training curve, or a little more boost on the damage...
I always love UC, and always have crazy ideas for them hehe If one of the below goes through, it should be rather enough :)
- Make it 20% easier to train
- Make it ignore AC granted by opponent's body armor, yes, just the body armor.
- Simply increase their damage multiplier by 20%

Heck yeah. Do that, Lumpy, and we'll all train UC (ignoring the body armor) *grins*

hm, I think it'd make more sense if it ignored all armor except body/head, but then, even I'd use it

come on guys, with Unarmed Combat: 3,221,132/1,312,353 (152) and 1.3mil str I can only do max of 400k per hit on a naked enchanter :P It's "reasonable" request hehehe I see a crappy SOD do much better than that.
Unarmed Combat: 4,081,378/1,500,000 (173)
It doesn't get much better than that... Peak damage won't break 500k, let alone average.

Woah, 152 and 173! I'm still at Unarmed Combat: 2,159,935/765,401 (122). Guess I still have a long way to go ;)

Nice NS, sounds like that is hitting about as well as my Bloodlusted tank with the 15M BoTH on it and similar ST. *grins* Amazing what the EXP dump of UC does for a tank...*sighs*

OB has as much str as you two and he does approximately the same amount of damage. Coincidence? I think not.

dude 15mil is easy to come by. May it be forging or fighting or USD, it won't take you more than 1 month. And it's scalable !
tell me how long will you take to get 4mil LEVEL of UC.

15m in a month? Maybe if you have your NUB. I make less than 2m per week. Impossible to FIGHT or FORGE 15m CB2$$ in a month.
You could easily get that much in a month by getting yourself a job.

USD ftw! I have priorities.
"tell me how long will you take to get 4mil LEVEL of UC."
It took me about 8 months.
"Amazing what the EXP dump of UC does for a tank...*sighs*"
Or doesn't do.
UC is definitely not an easy strat to mess around with.
have you actually trained all the exp on your UC team NS or are you still hoarding it?
