First of all before i start id like to say Pigman, i read the forums they are being very helpful. Now, i have also read how people say they dont use rend, or they don't like it because of the short use and slow cast time. All i care about is, is it going to help me for solo or not? I'd also like to know about p.weapon. Would you use it for soloing. Or do you think its more o a pvp skill?

poison weapon is good for solo, rend is good IF you dont have earthstone, aggy damage rings, and youre under level 100-120

If u ask me tend sucks from lvl 1-1000 it's not very decent in all onesty and does around 1/3 of ur auto damage or do I have found. This makes it's useless as it has 3 ticks so u get an auto attack which can be evaded... Uses up a lot of energy and takes skill points from other better skills for low levels like fast reflex or sneak

Brook, if you don't have damage gear it's an ok skill up to a certain point. For me, even with gear, I have 45/35 rend through bracelets and 530 strength so it's decent in a short fight, not something long though. The other use I have for it is on a cloaked boss, to avoid taking cloak damage

So what your trying to point out is, rend is helpful in short fights.

I have no earthstone, Agra rings, obe rings, and use rend. It's great dps! Although I have got to try earthstone and it made rend really crappy.. So yes it is great if you have no high end dps gear.
