I've been a fencer/bh bout 4 days now. I've tried different combos and realize that for spice, fencer is great. Here's what I do so it's just my opinion. i've gone with Katana's build after testing a few... seems to be a good all around build. master fencer/3000BH/novice medic/0030pistoleer
-I have a cob macro that goes off ever 6 seconds. So i'm never without cob for more than a second. If you do it do 30 or whatever, i've found that sometimes lag will mess it up and you can end up with no cob till the next macro loop.
-adk psg with ls resist.... if you are lucky get it sliced that day. Make it a habit to take it off when you shuttle, and put it on when you finish loading. ALWAYS make sure you have it on before attacking.
-as for tactics....... if i start from a range position i spam intimidate before we get into melee range... I keep it on him all the time. I have a macro that clears the combat queue, then does 2 intimidates... when jedi heal stats it takes them 4 seconds.. giving you 4 chances to replace the cleared intimidates..
-Foods i use, i've been testing between pie and cake.... i can't say which is best at the moment. But i always have 2 brandies (try to off set it so you can squeeze another one in if needed) a canape, and sometimes a 30 some filling thak (90%). I try to leave room for wafers... i have a steak in me long before i start so it's all digested.
-So now we are fighting.... We are making sure he's intimidated all the time... after a few clears he'll realize if he keeps it up, he'll run out of force sooner than later, so he'll usually stop, but keep an eye on it... if they ever get on their feet after a clear allstats from a kd, spam intimidate again.
I usually, just make them have the states dizzy/blind on them... then spam scatter 6 times or so if i see i'm doing lower damage than normal (get's rid of steak 3 times faster with each hit)... Once they have dizzy/blind/intimidate i go to hitting hit3. Keep the damage on them till their health is around half.. that's when they start getting ready to heal it.... then what i do is a posture down... then just spam dizzy till they are on the ground... then warcry them... it'll delay their heal for 10 seconds.. at that time hit3 for the win.....
if he lives all you have to do is rinse repeat. Trust me either you will kill him or he will run. I've tanked a knight mark with 2 other knights who were healing his stats (not attacking me) and i out lasted all 3's force pools. Just have to use your brains. Oh and a good tip if you need to heal using this template... heal yourself, then warcry, then 2 or so intimis then heal again... with luck and good stims that's 800-1000 healed.
But i'm getting the rep already, most marks just run from me now, unless i can surprise them. Katana gave me some good tips, and a nice direction to start from. Sorry it's long.....
