Thread: The final Weapon for a Fencer. Should it be changed?
Hey guys.
I was looking at the brawler professions thinking about how i could make my character the best and happen to notice that well... The final weapon was a stun baton... Whats with that?? if you guys feel like i do and think it should be changed pleased post here. Im not complaining im just pointing out the obvious. Shouldn't they have soemthing like a rapier or something?
Well thanks guys. ![]()
i too would like to see the curved and gaffi switched. but that's personal taste, and i don't even care enough to ever put it on a list of issues unless it was an empty list.
Most of the weapons for the melee classes are unimaginative. A heavy swordsman using a hammer is ludicrous. A fencer using mostly non-fencing type weapons is equally unbelievable.
Since these professions have been incorporated into the game they should have made more of an attempt to be true to them.
Example for Fencers:
Rapier, Sabre, Cutlass, VibroRapier, VibroSabre, VibroCutlass
Medieval fencing weapons given a Star Wars techno-feel. The Gaffi stick, Stun Baton and VibroBlade leave me very uninspired and the curved sword is just not that good.
Comp can't have stun protection I don't think.
And with 90% comp running around on Ket, pistoleer/fencers are keeping the balance of weapon vs armor lol.

No way Ryyk Blade, Gaffi switch would be a hell of alot better thent his.

Doesn't stun damage already ignore armor protection?
No, it is affected by resists just like every other damage type. Composite no layers vs. stun baton == dead Composite. Composite stun layer vs. stun baton == dead fencer.
