Tactical Information

Efficient Strikes helps the Brawler retain more Mettle for a short duration. This skill is most commonly used by Red-line Brawlers to pair with Battle Fury, which increases the bonus damage from Mettle. While the effect is useful for Blue-line Brawlers, its low uptime means that it is usually passed up for other traits and abilities.
