So, on Test Center Fencers and Swordsmen are much tougher atm? How much of an improvement does that bring?

I once saw this same argument in game, a 2 handed swords master and a fencer master, so they duked it out. The ENAHANCED Master2 hands lost 3 out of 4 fights and get killed from 3rd incap. Week before that there was a brawler tournament. The vast majority of the players to make it into the finals of the tournament were fencers/TKA. I will admit, Swordsman is the absolute best brawler class in PvE. They do amazing amounts of damage that can take down big creatures very quickly, but when it comes to PvP, they just don't get the defenses to compete with TKA and fencer. So if you're all about the PvE, go swordsman.



If I had something really clever to say it would be in my signiture instead of this.

Fencers have the godly defense - That's what it boils down to on Test right now.. Their defense beats a TKA..



And if I ever lose to a swordsman with fencer moves I'll quit the game.. If I don't incap him before his bleed gets me, I am off my game.. Why?


Dizzy, Lunge1 (Almost always falls, if he doesn't, I lunge2), Scattar Hit2 if theyre buffed or bodyhit3/onehandhit3 if not, if they get up before I can lunge/KD I warcry2, rinse and repeat..rarely Lose to even TKAs when I use my fencer moves..

if you go pistoleer and fencer you will never get hit with the high doge rating also fencer doesn't pay off until you get high into it. swordsmen are better off in the beginning with high dmg but will almost never be able to hit a master fencer getting hits off every second, plus the stun baton works really well vs composite armor and swordsmen don't have a weapon like that

Onabo, I'm **edit** sure you can't hit 12k on a lair with a power hammer UNLESS it's empty already, which would explain your 12k hit. Note that power hammers have blast damage, and currently blast damage does only about 75% damage to a lair, so that 12k isn't too spectacular.

basically



Fencer=Good damage Great speed



Swordsman=Great damage Good speed



Swordsman are the master of the mind and fencer are the master of the health pool

I'm not saying the other guy isn't stretching the truth (there is a good chance that he's not though) but tonight, with my curved blade, I hit some peon (jabba thug?) for 2400 with my 2handed curved sword and lvl2 melee strike (which ever that one is that I spam occasionally). I've done a lot more too (around 3900 I think) so yeah, Swordsmen rock. We don't dodge attacks, but we take melee damage well. All you need is a good suit of armor and, like a lot of other swordsmen, take doctor so you can buff yourself through the roof. Add some sweet sliced weaponry and you'll be soloing krayts in no time.

Having a swordsman and fencer duel, and the fencer wins, doesnt mean that you can draw the conclusion that fencers are better at PvP. Yes they may be better at swordsman vs. fencer, but in reality very little PvP is that kind of fight. Since there are so few brawlers, you will end up fighting people with pistols, rifles and flamethrowers more than fencers.


The advantage that swordsman have in PvP is that they damage the mind pool. Why do you think they are moving Eye Shot up to master for Bounty Hunters? It is exactly because mind damage is so effective in PvP.


So, while Swordsman may lose to Fencers or TKA, they are better at killing other types than either Fencers or TKA.
