Fencer Archive

hello


I have a question for all you fencers. Is working for Bounty hunter for one month, not getting to master, worth dropping for Doctor/fencer. Replys would be much appreciated. I would like to be able to take down people on pvps fast. How well are the at pvp. And I was also wondering if you could show me either pictures of the weapons or just reply with them, it would be much appreciated. Thank you for all the help, and have a nice day.

Well, as has been empirically proven on these boards, the fencer/doctor combo is the most uber in the entire game, and allows you to solo Dantari, Kimogillas, Krayts, and Jedi Master players with ease. Add in domestic arts 2 and you'll be unstoppable. We can only pray the the devs nerf this profession before everyone in the game becomes a fencer. Fencers also rock in pvp because they can attack opponents that are 64m away with ease.

And yes, I'm being sarcastic.

nice one easymcrhinopants. Ok now truthfully. Melees a whole nother world from bounty hunter.Your battles decisions and tactics become that much more important as your risk is much higher than bounty hunter. Your strategies will involve not only dealing damge butpreventing damageand also learning how to prolong your stamina so you dont tire yourself out and get knocked over on a lucky hit. It a whole nother theory of thought behind it. Sort like the difference be elementary algrebra and multivariable calc. Both are easy if you know what you are doing.ones just much more complicated. That being said Doctor/ Fencer makes a great combo as it gives the fencer healing and buffs. Both of these are greatly needed for fencer. However i suggust that you start as a new build preferably a zabrak because you biggest problem will be the mind pool due to heals and wear down over time for specials. For me to remain at my best solo as a human i have to use muon gold otherwise my mind pool even with a low mind draining weapon such as gaffi gets wasted due constant exgeration(sp?)Of cousre im' not a doctor but i do use sunburns to get the buffs needed for battle.

I think it's worthwhile to play fencer now if you can get used to the difference, or any melee class for that matter. However remeber you dont play us to really be uber as it wont ever happen. Kiting pretty much insures that. As a community it is love of the sword and honor that tends to bind most of us together, not the lust for power. If you can understand why that is this the class for you if not sticking with BH /pistoleer /CH would be the best road for you.

Is dropping any class worth gaining any class? That's a play decision.

Fencer/Doctor does work well. Any Brawler/Doctor works well. But as my esteemed collegue pointed out, it's a different mindset and a different reward. In many ways, it becomes a different game. Some things get easier, while others get harder. You have new decisions to make. With new advantages come new disadvantages, like kiting.

If you want speed AND power, I suggest going Swordsman.

Depends..if you are doing it for PVP..don't.
