Thread: Fencer/pistoleer
Do you realize just because they have different names that they are all the same..Just because one says dodge and the other says counter attack doesnt meen that only one works...Any defensive mod will come into play during battle, doesnt have to say dodge...
Actually Xendi..there isa small difference...Dodge on the pistoleer side, for example, will not work if you have another ranged weapon equiped. Melee Defense and Ranged Defense work across the board, but a large number of mods will only work for those specific weapons designed for their use.
So what he's asking here is if he goes fencer/pistoleer...depending on whichever of the two is his primary profession and main weapon, he wants to know if he gets the full +210 dodge while using either weapon or only the pistoleer dodge with pistols and fencer dodge when fencing.
To that, I don't know myself, but itsa big question to be sure and if I were to take a guess....I'd say yes they would likely both stack together.
Not chancing it... really it's against my concept personally for Roogah to take any ranged skill HOWEVER...
Master Brawler, TKA 4004, Master Fencer, Hsword 0040, Pike 0040, equals just about the most Melee/Ranged Defence you can possibly have, Plus almost all the Counterattack/Block Mods, And counterattack Block Dodge from melee lines all work in conjunction.
And I've noticed that Melee/Ranged Defence mods play a much larger role in combat than the secondary defence mods.
Incidentally yes that means you need something like700k combatXP for that spread, but you'd pretty much have it by the time you complete all the skills.
Incidentally...
Was fooling around in Coronet yesterday and a Master Brawler Master Swordsman/TKA decided to try to duel me...
At Master Brawler, TKA 0002, Fencer 4343, IKO'd him 3 out of 4 times... Encourage your opponants to use their big weapons by the way, the negative range mods of his Power hammer made him miss 12 out of 13 times. but the moment he pulled out a cleaver with +range mods he only missed 3 out of 4 times. Which means dead Mind pool in two hits...
Now I also wasn't Lunge 2'ing him so he had an advantage there.

If they had one ounce of logic, the devs would at least spread out the dodge through the trees, or just lower the dodge amount a little, so that only Master Fencer/Master Pistoleers could get good dodge, but no, they have to COMPLETELY RUIN it for anybody who doesnt want to be a TKA.
amen
