they also drop the line of bamboo weapons monk only but sell for a few plats and they are blue to me at 19 easy to take out I'm a mage using an earth pet good loot for easy kill blues but they do hit hard

dont fight this mob if it cons even unlesss twinked buffed or full grouped cause they have hp of warriors hit hard like rogues and as fast as monks not to mention a sham nearby nasty combination to deal with
it also under cons so becarful.. my SK had a buff and had 690hp with cholorplast.. if i didnt have cholorplast then i wouldnt of made it. both hit hard and fast and a lesser sha is usually near by and heals. yup bad drops for the trouble you go thro... if i were you i would just go for trainer dxier guy..

To clarify the drops: Pit fighter handwraps 2ac +1str monk only. Pit fighter anklewraps 2ac +1dex monk only. Nice newbie gear, When I find them I usually give them to any low level monks I see nearby.
From these, I have gotten Pit Fighter's handwraps and footwraps, magical monk only stuff, each like +1 str. Pretty useless for the level you can get em at.
Actually these are great for monks who are poor and cannot afford wu or any good monk armor like that. Magical armor on the feet and fists means they can fight enemies such as willowisps, ghouls and MoBs that can only be hit by magical weapons (i.e. weapons for a monk usually are fist and feet). nice item in case they take a trip to the karanas or anywhere else.
I am a lvel 14 warrior and fighting just one of these guys was hard. He hit me for 30 points ore than once than another jumped in. They are a lot stronger than you think BE CAREFUl
these guys drop great monk armor, so far i have gotten gloves and boots. gloves is 2 ac, +1 str, boots were (forgot ac) +1 sta. i bet there is more. bad thing is that these guys normally spawn with another pit fighter spawn near by, and OOR shaman will heal them..
Uh maybe they have riposte because Oh I dunno, they are pit fighters? C'mon, its all about role-playing ) Just think about it and apply it too other things such as this.
They are green to me at 22, being a rogue they did quite a job on me but nothing I couldnt worm my way out of (No I did not train them on noobies lol). Maybe is it was all my loot I took from Blackburrow with me =P Nothing like taking 9 gnoll hide lariats and 15 spiked collars on long trips mwuahahahaha!!!!
If an elephant in Southern Karana can parry, why cant a Pitfighter riposte? I think the latter is more realistic. They gave my 17 pally and a 15 Shamen a bit of trouble occasionly, so be a bit weary of these guys especially because they come two at a time.
Cons blue to yellow to a 14th SK and blue to even to a 15th wizard and never conned lower than yellow at 12th. Seems that 12 to 15 would be a more accurate level range.
As to the riposte - get used to it. VI really loves to make a mob "more challanging" by giving it class abilities at a far earlier level.
At 19th level, they conned Blue to me, occasionally Green. At 17, they were "dangerous"
I was fighting one last night, a blue, when I get the message that he riposte my attack. I don't get that skill until level 35 and this Pound Puppy reject is using it on me? WTF?
Garren Ravenclaw Monk of the 19th Season Silent Fist Clan Morelle-Thule
These guys spawn in the room before the prison area. They drop burlap armor and gloves that are monk with + to str. They appear to fight as monks as well.
