Um, if you want to do voln fu you should be 2x in brawling and have a ton of shield use. The perception is fairly unnecessary.

[Snapp]

It'll be very difficult to be effective at brawling and two-handers as a bard. Don't know if that's a wise path to follow, but hey, I like mutants.

[Marl]

I couldnt drop shield use, 1.5x dodge, 2x brawl, 1.5x, 2 hander? or is that not possible?

Do you got a forumala for that? I would be interested in seeing it.

It's somewhat complicated but here you go:

For warriors and rogues:

Brawling skill + Brawling skill * 3/17 (normal rounding) + Perception skill/20(truncated) + Agility bonus/2 + Dexterity bonus/2 + Strength bonus/5



For non-warriors or rogues:

Brawling skill + Perception skill/20(truncated) + Agility bonus/2 + Dexterity bonus/2 + Strength bonus/5



Also, for voln-fu you don't need to be 2xed until 60 or so, up until that point it's still effective at 1.5ish.

Much appreciated.
