I'm getting to the point in fencer where it seems all the MOBs I am fighting are either too easy(any random spawn I come across)or too hard (Geo cave, Peko Peko Albatross, Giant Dune Kimogila)
What I would like to know is what should I be fighting now that I am about halfway through fencer with no other combat skills?
and
As a master fencer will I be able to tackle any high level PVEcontent in the game beyond being the "punching bag" for my group?
I'm currently a 0 4 3 2 fencer with no other combat skills.

I would say to just stay out on dantooine doing pikets, voritors or quenkers. As for high level content, I can take out alot of stuff... but different professions can take out different things. It's just how the system works. We just get borked by not having a decent armor piercing weapon. That is our main downfall for pve, but our defensive capabilities makes up for it greatly.

I think that the Fencer turns into the punching bag when it comes to high end PVE. All we do is get our armor hurt while everyone else does the real dmg. I usually play protector in my groups, drawing all the aggroes to me, while everyone else does the dmg. But if my group mates arent in danger, I switch to HS and head hit everything to death

Leveling is nice but I want to have adventures, see the sights.
What is the highest level creature in the game that could be taken on by a fencer?

Once you run across something with light armor or above and no vulnerablities, your screwed. Fencer is excellent for low to mid PvE, but starts hurting when you run into light, medium and heavy armor. A purely fencer build will be nothing more than a good tank once you get into high end mobs. I would suggest picking up Pikeman or Swordsman, if you have the points, to increase your offensive abilites for high end mobs. TKA is also a good choice because they do stupidly high damage with unarmed3, hitting for roughly3000 damage on light armor targets, 1500 on medium and 750 on heavy.
