And they come out with the final cert for fencer, being a stun baton.


Really......why in the freeg?



You'd think the final cert would be a fencing sword, or a sword, or maybe a sword, or maybe a dagger....



But a stun baton? That just seems so wrong...it makes me laugh so hard inside, that I don't laugh at all.



Please enlighten me.

what a... creative way to post it.


it is up here so that it is difficult to get a weapon with stun damage, making it so only fencers have it.

You are taking me the wrong way....



Sure, stun is good, sure we can only get them....that's great.



I am saying since it is a fencer.....they should have a sword or something, be there final weapon cert.....make it a stun sword or super sword or whateva...i could care less.....it has to be sword.....



We are not the super trained baton men....**edit**? Really? We would be called batoners or something....we are FENCERS. Make sense what I'm trying to put across?

I totally agree, a trained fencer, a mighty warrior, pulls out a 10 inch baton and smacks you with it? hrm..... i mean how stupid is that?

If i was going to use a baton as my primary/ class specific weapon, i think i would have become a batonist..... you know joined the cheerleading squad.....

Exactly my point, Riko87.

I think that a commando's final cert should be a slingshot. Just seems fitting, if our final cert is a freegan energized twig.



Woohoo, I stunned someone with my super twig.

Honestly, I mean, whats up with the stun batons man? While they are not as bad as they USED to be, I still have people come up to me and ask, "What is that!?" When I tell them it is the 'Best' weapon a fencer can get, much laughing follows. On many occasions I have even had friends mention the fact that it looked like a female...ermm, well...'toy'.

I will hew them into pieces, I will dash them into dust;
Like Baal in his strength, on their rearward, lo! I fell,
And I killed them, none escaped me, and I slew, and slew, and slew."

You really need to try one out and use it on stuff with really high kinetic resists. Sometimes it pays off. They only recently changed then to allow greater weaponsmith improvement. I have a medicore one and it is useful sometimes.

stun baton slices through most high level mobs, and pretty much all spiders and goes right through armor. Nothing protects against it except a PSG.... Now with the new stats, they are very much worth it.. Though I do agree, fencers need more swords than just whats there... But Id rather have stun than another profession... one of the only thing we have going for us..

If you are asking what a stun baton is good for or why it is a high cert, then you are not using it correctly.


Stun batons destroy targets with armor of any type and targets that have high kinetic resists. There are a few targets with Stun resist, but very very few.
