Fencer Archive

It cracks me up to see that people will play broken professions...lol, they need to issue player awards that are given to those who play the same profession through hell and high water. Good to see u are happy. Don't worry most willcontinue touse this profession to mix with rifle for the defences still. They, unlike u the fencer hardcore.. will be able to do damage.

But then.. u will only have to worry about THAT when u fight things. Every time u step into pvp with that baton u will play second fiddle to most. These are the days of the PSG and stun armor. I stopped worrying about a fencers baton a month ago when I got 40% compo and started hot keying Imp PSG's.

Your best attack left now against the pvp hardcore will be BLIND. Don't worry about that KD/Dizzy.. it ain't like that attack matters much anymore with thaktillo and stacked status defences. Everyone I war with has a stack of +80 in KD, Dizzy and posture down.. sure they fall sometimes and fish flop but usually it is about 1 time outta every 8 skirmishes we get into. U will need that time to switch with the new delay to your other prof and either hit them with that rifle, that 2 handed sword or that pike, whichever one u keep your DOT on.

Just think though.. at least your defences are good and it will take your opponent longer to kill you.. heck maybe if u are cunning u can last long enough on the run that your oponent will go on a muon downer.. and then u will shine.

I have to say that u have heart tho.. can't say it is brains...

There is a reason people go into FoTM.. usually those are the only professions that work at the time. I used to be a commando once and then they broke it bad.. I left for something that worked.. sure, I coulda stuck with it.. but to do so would rob me of my pvp endgame.. and well.. u gotta ask yerself.. what is that YOU do after u have spent that 3 day period mastering 2 professions.. If u pve u will be fine.. ai is basically a spamfest anyways and u will notice little change.. but if it is pvp u lean towards heavily, u will be hurting without a damage dealing secondary.

I could have stayed with commando back in the day but it was forever ruined when I seen the writing on the wall... Everytime I died to the HDT's I had only my self to blame. I was playing a broken profession. One day I came to the conclusion of this.. THEY SAY there is like 12 combat professions.. but in war how many TRULY matter? That carbineer has a chance to take that rifle stack but do u think it is much? and Do u think that rifle stack is worried about the carbineer as much?

I play a FoTM these days.. I can tell u.. that on the field I take note of what u are using. Rifles and CM's worry me.. fencers USED to.

I guess it must be a Roleplaying thing if u are in pvp with a fencer weapon trying to do damage... Good luck to you I guess.. I will still be a fencer for the defences, lets face it, they ARE the best in the game. I will be using my rifle for damage tho in both pvp and pve.. cause lets also face that.. a rifle IS the best weapon for damage in the game.

/sigh

Anyone who FotM'd as a Fencer is...simply put, a moron. Fencer never was good as a primary damage dealer in PVP. Even with bugged Scatterhit 2, Fencer was in no way a primary damage dealer vs anyone with stun comp, let alone a stun psg. I think alot of people are mad since, a move that wasnt too great to begin with, and Fencer's only option to solo with, was reduced in power, all because of jedi.

As of now Fencer is good at AOE blinding witha Janta knife and tanking damage for a group.

Check your timetables.. compo with 40% resists only became commonplace about 6-8 weeks ago. Fencer has been FoTM for over4 months. (before the defence cap patch)

And if a Moron retools for efficiency with weapons that work, then I am a moron and all those 'smart' people holding onto antiquated templates complaning about how they are gimped are surely better off in the crafting they must do with the half ofTHEIR template that works. Just remember the FoTm will beat the RP templater 8 times out of 10 because RP does not influence combat.

Oh and the last line I did not notice..

I guess the 'janta knife tactic' is good for pve then, cause these days in pvp u do not stand in bunches.. a CM would make minced meat of u and whoever was in 30m of u.

Then we concurr.. sorry fer the crossed wires bro..

Everyone remember when Rifleman was given way too much accuracy, and speed? Then everyone picked it up because it was a FOTM until the devs decided that firing at the speed cap with a heavy armor piercing rifle was unbalanced.

Oh, wait a minute.

:roll eyes:

I seem to have no end of luck
