Fencer Archive

Even without Center of Being, as a Master Fencer, I am literally impossible to hit. I jumped from 48 melee defense and 43 ranged defense to 125 melee defense and 103 ranged defense with just one patch (I dabble in TKA also). Dodge is a wonderful, beautiful thing. Five con-red Rebel NPCs firing at me hit me a total of four times out of over 60 shots (i was moving though, to further increase my defense).

Finally...we have FINESS! We are GRACEFUL! Thank the Maker, we are the Kings we should have been since the beginning....

Um, does the dodge seem to work against both melee and ranged attacks okay?

lol don't be TOO obviously exstatic, or the other professions will be crying for nerfs

Yes, let's keep our uberness a secret.

*ppsssst* I took out a master pistoleer with all these fancy bonuses

I'm glad everyone is pleased! But, yes... some discretion wouldn't hurt.

i agree raph. Now that can actually take on stuff that range of the same level since day one we might get a little respect. Not to mention that CH are no longer required for tanking i believe it is a good day indeed.Only thing i wish i knew was how melee and range defense factored in. As the low damage dealing melee we got essential the highest fixes here, however this makes the other melee jealous and I would like to be able to state the reason the difference is there so they understand. Personally I would take a lower damage rate if it means fencer get to be defensive specialist, Which they are in real life and are starting to become that in game.

You took out a master pistoleer? Impressive. But Master Pistoleers now have 105 dodge as well.

Yah, but he didn't have CoB. It was pretty close, one more stopping shot and I would've been toast. And he was a wookie, so no armor to worry about.

hahah caught you all with useful skills nah nah

My gosh am I glad I waited this class out.
+105 dodge, omg

I took on a set of maulers today on Naboo.

Hit the center of being and charged in. 3 of them fired at me while the other 2 switched to melee.

I took down the first 2 without using a special, just normal attacks. The whole time (about 10 secs) the ranged users fired away. Next, ran them down after a minimal kite attempt. Beat them to the ground.

I must have gotten attacked 25 times during that fight, NOT 1 attack landed. Looted and walked away without a scratch.

This was with no buffs and no armor, WOW

Awesome changes.

Yes, im loving it. As a wookiee I could barely take out a nuna as a 4-4-1-3 Fencer(okay, so i'm exagerating here) but with the weakness of wookiees toughness, everytime they hit I got hurt bad. With this new defense I don't get hit quite as often, which is a very good thing. Now if they will just increase wookiee toughness ill be a bad ass

Wookies have reduced Toughness?

Wow, I feel a littleNeo-ish now...

Trinity: "How did you do that?"

Neo: "What?"

Trinity: "You moved like they do. I've never seen anyone that fast before."
