Bah, im rifleman and going fencer. Went fencer when they fixed rifleman making us easier to hit by melee attacks. Got killed by a huurton howler and it made me mad. So now when something gets close i can at least evade it and do some extra stat effects hits before i get distance and begin the rifle fire again. FOTM for me no it will take me some time before im through with fencer. But im glad i did it, I have had a lot of fun taking tuskens down. And i finally might be able to do something against all the night sister clan members.

dude, fencer has been the melee "FotM" since about a month after they boosted our defenses. It really makes me sad to see so many people pick it up for the wrong reasons. So many think thatit'll make them ub3r, instead of having an actuallove for the prof

Doltec - If you're going into fencer for the PvE aspect...not such a great idea. Our damage in PvE is considerably small in comparison to say, a TKM. True, with CoB running, it's a lot less likely you'll get hit, but if you want PvE damage, hop onto the TKM bandwagon.

i just made novice fencer this morning. got tired of broken commando. at least on my server, fencer is still somewhat of a secret. all the experienced uber PvPers are fencers, but most newbs just assume they are TKM because TKM is the cliche uber prof (when in reality it isnt that great) so not everyone is flocking to the profession. certainly not on the level that people are flocking to rifleman/CM



and there was much rejoicing...

I am on Gorath and there is still way more TKAs then fencers. Sometimes I have trouble finding someone to teach me. BTW I am Master Rifleman also going for Fencer. I was TKM, but only keeping 4/0/0/4

People only take fencer for the defensive mods, in pvp. Its the only reason why most do not master it, they rather just take our befits to add to thier own. Thier is a difference between a real fener an a dabbler. ^-^

Im takingfenceer becausse i like the profession i already have TKM which i pvp with but fencer will be nice to add to this , and im also goin g back to MHS as ai prefere melee profession to ranged they are more fun and you can solo alot of mobs with these professions , also love the Gaffi baton it is pretty cool weapon have being doing onehanded since i started this game


Only thing i dont like about this profession is the lack of swords ( it says fencer not police man with are batons ) , but hopefuly they will add some proper swords to fencer in time are tomorrow , that would be nice , that is the one thing about swordman i love we only got one non sword weapon PH but that ok as it are best weapon still , the scythe is ok about time we got it ,

Here are my reasons:


  • Great defensive abilities

  • Extremely fast

  • Pistoleer is still broken

  • I am already a Master Swordsman, so I will be a true Blademaster when I finish

  • I really like melee

  • It complements Swordsman very nicely

Took it for the defense mods

Stayed for the defense mods

Won't give it up for the defense mods, at least not for a while.


It's quite simple - this profession is all about defense. Just like Swordsman is all about the offensive power.

Wait until the new Jedi system comes in, THEN thing will REALLY get interesting. I start this prediction right here.

- I'm a new Jedi, I have no defences
- Fencers's have a great dodge!
- I'll become a Fencer.
- I'll then work on Jedi, as I have a great dodge!!!

There you go. That's the best padawan strategy in the game right now.
