Do I really have to become a melee brawler mage?

Mike didn't rush to storm the Tower of Truth but first made his way to the Wolf's Den. He approached the bar and said to a bartender, "I need an SS-level room and a rum on the rocks."

Clutching the key to room SS-004, Mike entered his private sanctuary. 

"Got a lot to sort through, one thing at a time."

He had spent too much time on the ninth floor of the Tower of Truth yesterday and hadn't had a chance to organize.

Speaking of gear, he had the Behemoth's Claw, Force of Nature (+4), and Nightmare's Breeze to deal with. 

First up was the Behemoth's Claw, a reward for conquering the eighth level with an SSSS rating.

Gear: Behemoth's Claw (Lv.60)

Tier: S

Attributes: Strength +450

Physical Attack: 800

Perks:

- Miser: After dealing damage, the enemy can't gain currency or items, which automatically drop instead.

- Bloodthirst: Grants 15% life steal when using the Behemoth's Claw.
