if you're not interested in pvp, i don't recommend taking up fencer - all the specials aside from blind are pretty much useless in PVE. Swordsman is a very good prof to base your template around, i don't think you need to drop it.

if you're primarily pve'ing, i'd suggest dabbling (or mastering TKM) - at least get advanced CoB - and try ADDING somepikeman to your swordsman toon. warcry and intimidate are cool, as are the area specials.

Pike is also good on it's own, but trading sword for pike won't really give you any extreme advantage. however, stacking them will be nice

I thought advanced lunge and improved cripple attack were pretty good!?

Then CU. Now it's NOTHING like it used to be (well, i know nothing is, but still...)

I respec'd to Master Swordsman & will keep that mainly b/c of the higher Offense & Defense it offers compared to Fencer.

I don't PvP, and usually solo (as much as I can anymore) so I need high O&D.

Agree. I notice that too. Swordsman Defenses are higher than Fencer now.

Swordsman has arguably the best melee attack in the game right now. Critical Strike.

I am master fencer/swords/tk and i commonly use fencer weapons (Acid Sword, Blade of Nyenthoris) with critical strike for high damage dealing when I am playing that role.
