Brawler
Class in 99 Nights in the Forest · Cost 100 Diamonds
About
If you're hunting a class that can tilt a run in your favor, Brawler is worth a hard look before you spend your diamonds. It costs 100 Diamonds to unlock — putting it in the premium class tier. Rolling Brawler starts you with 1 Leather Body in your inventory — a solid early-game footing.
The Level 1 perk — - Can't use ranged weapons + 40% HP + 30% more damage dealt with Melee weapons — kicks in immediately, before the game ramps up. Levelling to Tier 2 unlocks "+ 10% health regeneration + Regen sooner after taking damage" and Tier 3 adds "+ 5% chance to block incoming damage". All three stack permanently, so every run compounds.
What sets Brawler apart is the perk synergy: Level 1 lays the groundwork, Level 2 amplifies results, and Level 3 closes out the build. It's not the simplest class to master, but it rewards consistent play across many nights.
The Brawler is a Class in 99 Nights in the Forest.

Tips & Strategy(6)
- ●This class is oriented towards tanky, close-quarters combat playstyles, being effective in both solo and team runs.
- ○Every perk of Brawler focuses on making the player even tankier.
- ●To fight against Entities, most notably Cultists, the player can use a well-known technique of running in circles around and hitting them with a melee weapon, mainly with a Spear, allowing the player to kill entities while minimalizing damage taken. With that said, players should try to find a Spear as soon as possible, as it will mostly be their main damage output early in the game until they'll eventually find a better weapon. (Note: This strategy works better on controller (console) devices.)
- ○When fighting against Entities using ranged weapons, like Crossbow Cultists and Aliens, the same technique mentioned earlier applies. However, players should try to track when said entities will shoot, and jump when they're about to do so. This allows the player to dodge their projectile. Although, this technique is not as effective against Aliens as it is against Crossbow Cultists.
- ○The player can also try using a different tactic, that being getting close to them and running left and right, as they will miss their shots most of the time. However, the player should consider the amount of entities and their placement before executing this tactic.
- ○When raiding the Cultist Stronghold, the player should try to prioritize killing Cultists, then kill the Crossbow Cultists, or vice versa depending
