RESOLUTION for those that come across this or are interested. so i added velocity and velocity-tools to the pom and took them out of the lib folder and it failed, just as it did before. After some research, i came across a 'similar' problem, where they mentioned the *-Xverify* jvm option. So i went to the appservers and sure enough it was there * -Xverify:none*, so i removed it and it came up without a problem. Not sure if this is a java/tomcat7-6/struts combination, but i don't know of any reason to have this so i simply removed it and i'm moving on.
