Fencer Archive

well ill throw a rock into this, smuggler has melee mitig 1, ok we use only pistols in smuggler. so i am guessing it should work, but i have started working on fencer and if i like it ill switch to master fencer instead of pistoleer, i think i can get 2424 in fencer i belive, any way, so if smuggler has mit 1, and i get melee mit 2 in fencer does it do the same. does melee mitigation work when a pistol is equiped since it is in the smuggler tree.

Mitigation is not effected by the weapon that is being carried, as was pointed out smugglers get melee mitigation 1 and ranged mitigation 1 dispite the fact that they have no melee skills apart from what they get from unarmed 4,which is a prerequisite for smuggler. Infact commandos would like to get melee mitigation instead of ranged mitigation as all their specials have a max range of 16m.
