I'm still a relatively new player, and Fencer has been the only elite profession that I've gotten to so far. I've been very happy with it. It's got great defenses, it's fast, and it's deadly. Center of Being is great, and most people don't wear stun armor, which is why the stun baton is awesome. I'm aiming for Master Fencer/Master Commando. We'll see what happens.

Well Stun armor only comes max like 45% so even a great slice wont take you up to 80% so it's not as bad as you think.
Plus Ackley bones also help Fencers hit harder.
Don't get me wrong, we do hit a properly prepared person for crap, but it's not that bad.
Think of it like this. You hit somebody6 times for 75 each swing, for a total of 450. The other person swings at you6 times and hits once for 300. Who wins? Defenses are huge.
Stun armor comes out around 65 base or so.
True that we hit people without stun protection for a decent amount though.
But yea, defenses are what makes fencer good, so blind as much as possible and stay centered all the time and youll be impossible to hit.
Yes the base protections are 65% but Stun isn't one of them. Look at your stun Armor, the Stun value is lower then the others. Max is about 45%.
Ackley bones are more rare but as more and more get out, the prices will come down.
A vibroblade also can slice up to over 200. That is not a bad weapon.
You can't slice stun protection.
