"I mean, what is a pikeman and why is it something in the game?"

does melee damage mitigation work even when u are not unarmed or dont have a melee weapon? or do u need a melee weapon or fists equiped in order for melee damage mitigation to work?

thanks

If you have melee damage mitigation, it will work all the time, no matter what weapon you are holding. You can use both ranged and melee damage mitigation at the same time.

Does the Damage Mitigation from TKA stack with the Fencer Damage Miitigation? I'm a TKM, so i have Melee Damage Mitigation 3 and I'm slowly working my way up fencer and was wondering if fencer 4x4x would be a better than fencer 44xx for the damage mitigation given by the fencing technique branch. Appreciate any help here.

To add to what i said before... the reason why I'm thinking of fencer 44xx is for the defense vs. KD and posture change given in the footwork brance? Anyobe have any insight?

Melee damage mitigation doesn't stack between professions. If you have the mit 3 from tkm then you'll not see any benefit from fencer mit 3, it will be the same.

Though you will see benefits from more ranged/meleeand status effect defenses from the fencersboxes if you are a tkm or any other profession too by the way .

Defenses wIll only stack up to 125 points, they capped it at that level, unless somethings changed in the past few days that I'm unaware of =)

Thanks! Explains allot actually. I noticed a that whenever I was switching over from TKA and Fencer while I was just Fener Novice I was getting beat up more. Never really realized or though about it till now. I think I will go with the footwork brance in Fencer to get that KD and posture change bonus. Thanks again.

Does Melee Damage Mitigation affect the amount of damage suffered by lightsabers? I've looked all over and haven't seen this information anywhere else.

Thanks for the quick answer looks like my template will have to change again.
