Hi, and thank you for taking the time to read this.
Purpose of post: More variation in Gauntlet options for Brawlers/Pugilists.
I will refer to "Gauntlets/Gloves/Knuckles/Whatever glove slot weapon" as "Gauntlets" in this post.
All gauntlets drops are restricted to Monk. So only the craftables are available for Brawlers/Pugilists while wandering the world of Arelith unless you have UMD. And in the end game, there is one choice:
Disciple's Wraps (ID: 1150)
Attack Bonus: +4
Damage Bonus: Bludgeoning 6 Damage
Enchantment Bonus: Wisdom +1
Improved Saving Throws: Universal +1
Runic
(No equip restrictions even though it seems to have some sort of grandfathered unchecked UMD 45 thing on it still in game)
The above gauntlets are great, but as a STR/CON Pugilist build, the Wisdom is not something that helps a non-monk to "gear up".
The Gauntlet itself takes up a possible slot to place an Ability score, Save, Skill, and you even lose two extra from not being able to wield a main hand or off hand.
This is especially hard now the extra damage types are introduced, making you either lose out on -/5 DR of 2 damage types, or force you got get them enchanted on other equipment. (cheap enchantment, not really an issue, but felt the need to mention it).
If this is the main reason the Wisdom and Unisave was placed on the Disciple's Wraps to begin with, a boring solution would be to make a DEX and perhaps a STR or even CON variant of the Disciple's Wraps.
So my suggestion/question:
Is it possible to make more variations for End Game Gauntlets for Brawlers/Pugilists?
