how much do u guys recommend Awareness for a Weapon Master? people said it makes seeing monsters easier therefore, resulting in more exp/points in some cases.
from 1-10... rate Awareness!!! 7 to 10 means that i have to get it.
i only need lvl 1 right?

Only level 1 yes. Skills such as awareness are the non essential skills. This meaning that you could play just as well without however buying them would help you out.
I'f you're having trouble then sure buy it but i'd advise putting the stats into damage bonus etc that are very essential to gaining experience.

Awareness is definitely helpful in seeing monsters. As Rob says though, essential skills like wep speed and damage bonus are going to be more beneficial initially. What good is seeing the monster if you can't kill it (and relatively quickly). That being said though, I like it and wish I had gotten it sooner for my Weapon Master.
I also agree with Cheap's assessment:
Get LVL1
Forget LVL2

Lvl 1 Awareness is particularly helpful for big maps and/or distant monsters. That green health bar most definitely draws the eye and your aim to the target! But I also agree with Brain....max out weapon speed and get a healthy dose of damage bonus before you invest in Lvl 1 Awareness. And I'm in concordance with the thoughts on Lvl 2....just not worth it in my book.

MAGIC WEAPON LIST
(Additional info)
Damage A weapon with no text, only a + rating (e.g. "Rocket Launcher +3") does 10% more damage for each + (so a Bio Rifle +3 is 30% more damage).
Protection You take 10% less damage for each + while holding this weapon.
Force Projectiles shot by this weapon are 20% faster for each +.
Piercing Damage from this weapon ignores shields.
Penetrating Hitscan shots fired by this weapon go through any players they hit (like the zoom instagib beam does).
Infinity This weapon has infinite ammo.
Sturdy Enemy fire can't push you around while holding this weapon.
Luck While holding this weapon, fortune smiles upon you. Useful pickups seem to materialize out of thin air in front of you!
Misfortune You aren't so lucky with this weapon. For some reason, pickups seem to spontaneously combust right before you get to them.
Poison This weapon poisons those hit with it, causing additional damage to them over time.
Energy/Draining This weapon gives/takes adrenaline equal to 2% of the damage caused by it for each +/-.
Perhaps it's time to update this list? What does
harm on a weapon do? How much vampirism does a vampiric weapon provide? How often does Null Entropy freeze the monsters.

Just have a few questions.
What is the 1000 bonus points added to luci keep coming up for, and what is it?
Is advanced damage bonus applied after your standard damage bonus?
Do multiple kills, and killing sprees give added experience?
Can we hotkey individual artifacts instead of scrolling through them?

1. Successfully completing the map.
2. I believe advanced damage is applied after.
3. They used to give alot of xp for the spree awards, Especially the holy crap/shit kills. Something was changed, not sure if it will go back to the old way.
4. At this point we can't they were supposed to introduce that in the next druids release. However, with UT3 coming around the corner..... doubt it will be added.
