You really should dabble in some other melee professions and get at least 2000 Medic.
Swordsman doesn't have very much in terms of defense, only offense.

if you're after big stuff like krayts, elders or whatnot medic 2x40 helps greatly, you'll get hit regardless how many defences you have. If you go after Black Sun mobs for armour, ns protectors and spell weavers for crystals or other mid range stuff I'd say get some defences. Here medic 2000 would be enough.
I'm msword, mbrawler, mfencer, tka 4000, medoc 2000 atm and do ok-ish, can take on giant krayts solo, but elders tend to get nasty once they hit me with their bleeds or the dizzy kd, I tend not to solo them, for me high risk, takes a long time and chances of dropping anything seem quite low rescently.

that was one template I was considering. How is it in PvP? How much do you use fencer?I was also considering not mastering fencer ad getting pike 0040. Extra defense and access to the dots that rule PvP atm

This is the template i used to have
TKM
Master Brawler
Master Swordsman (Speed caped)
Some fencer defense and a few medic skills (only to use good stim b's)
I could solo pretty much anything.
however in pvp ive seen better templates, but for pve this one was a blast.

MSwords
MBrawler
Fencer 2440
TKA 2004
Medic 2040
Combat Prowness for accuracy and speed (Get speed capped and accuracy tapes etc... Speed caps and accuracy doesn't so +15 speed in tapes and then +25 accuracy in tapes with whatever you need in tapes to get 125 counterattack 125 melee defense and 125 ranged defense then 0040 prowness would be best...)
Does well in PVP for me, I have some defense vs. state attachments too. Hell I even look for DJK to duel with when I pvp, I do stay clear of ranged guys, though (running after riflemen just sucks...)
PVE, anything can be soloed with this. Keep in mind that the attachments can cost 50+ million alone though... But you can speed cap with 0004 combat prowness and +3 in tapes so you'll be fine.

I don't pvp much, only fights I had against other faction on a regular basis is when I go kill Stormies at imp outpost on Dant or Talus, so I can't give you any real inside tips there, sorry.
Normally I start out with fencer, even tho stun armour is quite common the regular Joe doesn't wear it when he bumps into me killing Stormies at Talus or Dant imp base. I find it quite good to test their template with it, you have high defences which eliminates the risk of them knocking you down. From then on just the basic, if enemy has medic switch to PH, else contunue.
Never really used dot pikes, but I guess you can use them just as effective with just mbrawler, it's not the damage you look for in an uncerted weapon, just the dot. Taking up pikeman does give more accuracy, I just don't know if it is worth the skillpoints. If you look at the defences, pikeman 0040 does give quite a few things, but the most important one I guess is def vs kd? Well with my template you already have 80ish, not sure. But that is quite enough to be safe, I've never been kd'ed in duels or the few pvp experiences I had.

That is, I seek some, I dont have any.
I got a padawan with a combat rating of 55. I cant kill SQUAT, anything that is a blue dot (50's rating) or yellow dot (high 50;s rating) takes me apart in seconds.
So I take it down a notch and try to kill things that are 30s-40s Combat Rating. I get NO xp for these.
Should I give it all up, or will it be fixed? Or will it be fixed after I give it all up?

Tiggs did recently say that "Jedi fixes are on the way". However, there is not ETA and what they are going to fix. The only constructive advice I can give is to bite the bullet by grouping up and hope to gain enough xp to cover the xp loss to a BH or cancel your account as I have done until they fix the CU.

Cool thanks. This isn't a commando grind. I want to make my character a master commando/master tera kasi/novice medic. Purely for the idea of a Imperial Commando. So I guess I'll use my launcher till Flame 3
