Since you're asking for Publish 6 complaints, I'll save some of my other comments about the profession...


While hunting last night, I noticed that the effectiveness of my bleed2 had been reduced by about 90% by the patch, regardless of the resistances of the mobs I was fighting. I'm not particularly bothered by bleeds no longer stacking, nor by bleeds taking resistances into account (though it would bemuch easier to swallow if CM diseases/poisons would ever be brought into line with other DOT attacks), but I would really like to know whether thisapparent across-the-board reduction in damage was intentional (and if so--why?) or just another little SOE accident.







Well, let's hear the rest of your comments while we're at it, eh?

Yeah, me too. I never used fencer bleed, no need to. Fights over too quick for it.

When is a fencer a swordsman and a swordsman a swordsman and a 2 handed swordsman a swordman who is not a fencer? I'm sooooo confused!


And why do people keep asking me if I can train them in 2-handed swords skills?


/cry (Wait. There's no crying in StarWars.)


Our professional title is so screwed up. I would much rather be called a Novice Fencer than novice swordsman.People have actually asked me which is higher: Apprentice Swordsman or Novice Swordsman.


Also, I'm not a man.


We deserve a title worthy of us! Not something that is confusedwith another profession.

In re: Quiznos commercial


To quote Dagget Beaver, "That was nuts!"

with the changes to bleeds stacking and the damage decrese . it has put us at a definte disadvantage when fighting mobs and others. i belive our being able to stack our bleeds was one of the things that helped make up for our lack of pure damage out put because of the low damge and lack of ap on our weapons .





Post number 2, Highlighted in red Is he refering to JUST the bleed damage?



I droped fencer to chase a holo, so I havent had a chance to bust out the gaffi since ICD, Did they lower our damage?


With stun armor, we already cant hurt anyone in composite, they nerf it even more?

Damage output is my issue #1 in pvp our damage output is very low, and we should have a knockdown hit (or AOE knockdown a la pikeman).


But mainly it's dmg output, from novice fencer to master fencer it doesn't raise much, when u see dmg dealt by tka for example it's not on the same scale, but even swordsman and pikeman outamage us greatly.

Agreed. This is something I've wanted fixed since I first picked up Fencer in Beta.

Heh, since you asked.


There's nothing terribly original here, though: as fencers, I really think we should have at least one fencing weapon or at least something that resembles a sword.The "novice swordsman" title needs to be changed to "novice fencer."


My only other thought was put better than I ever could by Kaynab on the second page of this thread: http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=fencer&message.id=18408&page=2

I'd like to see something that balances us against TKMs; as Kaynab points out, we attack at the same speed as a TK but with less damage and less accuracy. My original understanding was that the thing that set fencers apart was our speed, but with the 1.0 speed cap our speed bonuses are wasted. So perhaps the speed cap could be lowered for us?

I didn't mind them unstacking the bleeds, but reducing the damage by 90% was a bit excessive, I think. Now for fencer, this was not good, but it really sucked for swordsman whose only thing going for them was the bleeds. As 4243 fencer and 0403 swordsman, and with no fishak for me to make anymore, my whole character got SLAMMED with the nerf bat.
