Fencer Archive

Okay after even more thought, i decided that since i see so many posts of TKM's getting owned by MF's i will become a master fencer. So my new template will be:

Master Brawler-defensive bonuses

Master Fencer-PvP

TKA 2/1/1/0 or maybe 2/0/0/0

Swordsman 4/0/0/0-PvE=ranged attack 3

Medic 4/3/4/3-stim D's or C's

yeah so that's it, i think it is a pretty nice template, having lots of defense and all and especially the fencer CoB.

If you find something to say about this combo please tell me what you think i should change in order to have a good PvP and PvE combo character. Thnx.

shifted

since you are one of those people that wanna be fencer because you think it is uber, i will not help, too bad.

/agree

there are some of us that became fencers because it was new, and different. not because it was Uber or 1337

I am happy the devs made it so I didn't have to rely on a pet to live or other to carry our weight.... and I curse the holo's and the the wanna be power gamers that have flooded out peaceful existance with thier assinine power gaming bull-chit.

you want help.... kill stuff... yup thats your help... here's a better one you can get UBER EXP if you solo a Dragon in a dancers outfit!

Wow people in this game become less helpfull day after day, or else i just live in the best galaxy :-)

Can most of your medic, you really only need pharm 4. through those points into the TK precision tree for the defense, and get battlemaster in swordsman.

Go med 4.

Its incredibly useful.

Sort of hard to level it without other TKA skills but not impossible.

Also get the pistoleer line for dodge.

ButI heard the skill mods might not be stacking soon..

A lot of childish hostility just because the guy wanted to get the best character he can. I don't understand this because if you want to participate heavily in PvP then you need to tailor your character to get the best bang for the buck from your playstyle.

Anyway, as to your question. The current thinking is that stacking the Dodge of Pistoleer and Fencer is a good combination. In actuality the Pistoleer has 2 good defensive lines, one of which is also the best offensive line in the class.

The combination of high Dodge ( coupled with CoB ) make an extremely difficult to hit character. The other defensive mods also combine to make a character that is difficult to knock down.

Play what you want, how you want, for whatever reasons you choose.

yep, he play how he wants and i play how i want. I am just expressing an opinioin. I chose fence since the game launch and honestly whether or not if the dev give us good defense, i am keeping it just because i love sword fighting.

bottom line, we just have different believes and POV of fencers

I'm currently blademaster (master fencer in case you don't know the titles), master brawler,and i'm planning to master swordsman as well which i am working on now. Was going to do the meditation/power boost tree but decided terrain negotion from scout was better and just get dr buffs which you need for pvp anyway along with a good set of Composite Armor. As a melee pvper you need to be able to run down players without burst run. If youe ever fight around bestine those hills are a pain without terrain negotiation. I have medic 1000 and i get high quality stim b's which work fine. I suggest master fencer/master swordsman, with some clever macros you can get the ranged/area/mind attacks from swordsman and the defences of fencer. plus you will get even better stats verses status effects.
