Fencer Archive

Sadly enough the quickest wayto win I've noticed to boost your mind up as much as you can and pray that don't get KD'd. I've been doing a pretty good job of laying down states while keeping the worst off myself, I just can't get my mind up enough to compete with some of the guys on my server. I was in a 15 minute battle with a guy and lost when my mind went south.

I know Intimidate is a proble, but there isn't a real way to combat that if you are fighting another Melee profession. I get Intimidation on as soon as I can, so the results should be mutual

Thanks for your help guys, I will take all that has been said on board. I'm not going to change my template cause Doc is too valuable to me, and I love Fencer too much

cob macro,nice mind buff.

my strategy is intimitaite,blind,dizzy,lunge1 and if target get kd then scatter hit2(scatter because im pikeman and i have some nice mind dots)

my current stun baton ist like 150-370.. acklay maded.

pst. i tooked jedi guardian last night it tooked like 10sec lol he didnt have stun armor 1k dmg per scatter hit2 ( plz no flame and no omg nerf nerf)

Ok first off, when you start combat you should use your poison knife if it doesn't stick after a while then just whip out your stun baton. The combo is good but most people only use scatterhit2(it's currently bugged and goes through all defenses). Try to keep them on the ground because you do more damage to target when they're KD'd. Always use your stun baton in PvP unless the person you're fighting is unarmored then you can bring out your gaffi.
Oh and I don't really consider doctor/fencer the best template because a defense stacker could pretty easily take them down.

And about the fencers killing everyone: yeah right Fencers can get brought down very very easy with just 2 states.

max for state defenses is 90...anything over that is a waste of your skillpoints

no way dude, i askedi n the game guides forums like 3 weeks ago, its 125 also, believe if you want, ive even tested it, before rifles i was heavy swords/fencer/4304 tka, 95 kd defense hten, i got kded a lot still, not, i rarely get kded, so there must be a difference

Fighting oponents wearing stun armor makes the fight quite difficult if you don't have some sick damage stun baton. I lost to a Master swordsman (with bits of TK and rifleman, wearing 80% kinetic 30% stun comp armor) this week end. We both had buffs / food (ham was around 3k/3k/3k). I am master fencer, but my stun baton is only 185 max dmg.
The fight lasted close to 10 minutes, where I died, due to no more mind (he kept hitting me on the head all the time, never bothered about the rest). I had a cob macro running, kept him dizzy/intimidated/blind all the time, and was using lunge to have him fall evry 30 seconds (not spamming, just using once, retrying only if i saw failure message). Other than that, I was using scatter2, but never got any of his pools lower than 80%.
I don't see how I could have won this fight. I could have made it last longer by using a better set of armor (was wearing a set of comp I use for basic hunting), but I sure don't see how I could have done more damage him wearing stun layered armor.

Ok... so its obviously not 90 I know that for a fact. 125 I'd be more inclinded to believe but I haven't seen that anywhere else. I've also asked in the forums "What skills have caps and what is the cap level?" And I was told there wasn't. Here's the forum.
