Thread: Wookies left out in the cold?

As a Wookie and being unable to wear armor, am I totally screwed if I want to do a melee profession? I'm really interested in becoming a Fencer but it seems like the first word of advice from all fencers is to get some good 80% kinetic resist comp armor. I realize that I'll be able to wear Marauder armor after the next publish but since it is non-craftable, I don't plan on using it much. I have my one set and highly doubt anyone will sell theirs for a reasonable price.


So...again....am I wasting my time?

Hope is in sight, Stewbacca. Wookiee armour is on the horizon, so sayeth the devs (and not marauder armour, either, since they reviewed the art and it looked silly. It's brand new stuff)

I'm a Wookiee and i made master fencer last night, buy one of those imperial personal shield generators until we get armour... Its not much but it helps.


I was also taking on piket planes walkers last night, 6 at a time, with COB, 2 shots of brandy and health buffs, throw in a dash of muon if needed start spin attack 2 and non of my ham bars moved. Also at 80k for a non mission nest thats awesome xp, without armour


So we still don't have any 80% armour, but wookiees can still kick arse with the best of em .

I've been a Wookiee master Fencer for over a month now.I can melee any creature 10k ham or lesswithout buffs or armor. But that's only PvE. In PvP,I can't stay alive longer than 4 seconds.

Key to survival in PvP is intimidation, I dueled a master Fencer/TKA last night and while it was a short duel (about 30 seconds) one thing I can say, we both were hitting about the same till he landed intimidation on me, then it was all over. I stopped hitting and he was able to hit me and take me down. But as far as PvE I never wear armor. Use CoB and Buffs. Go after savage Quenkers on Dantooine once you are Novice Fencer, and when you feel you are ready go after pikets. Both give good exp, and neither poison/disease or deathblow. Prior to Novice Fencer I liked leveling on Corellia with anythign there.

Hi Alex,



With respect, I SWEAR that an unarmoured Master Pistols/Fencer can PVP anything.



Just put Center of Being in your toolbar and spam it. You will not be hit.



I can't understand why more Pistoleers/Fencers don't use this absolute ace up their sleeve.



I had a friendly duel with a BH/Pistoleer who was festooned with Pistols tapes. I stood back 30m while she blazed away. SHE DID NOT HIT ME FOR THREE MINUTES. Ask her. Name of Veila on the Chinaera server.



CoB is also extremely good against most PvE Mobs - but beware, some of the highest level creatures are able to ignore this defence for some reason and will cut through you like butter (I'm talking about Dark Jedi Knights and Masters rather than Nightsister Stalkers and Enraged Rancors).



Good luck.
