Well, if you're mainly buffed, I'd suggest maxing out your mind stats. Other than that, I can't help you without knowing what your race is and what you currently have your stats migrated to.

More info is required 
While race isn't quite so important it does bring up stat caps and bonuses where you might not be ABLE to put points, or where you wont NEED to put points ... something most people forget is their secondaries. If your wearing alot of armour your crippling the abilities the secondaries serve, regen and action costs. all thoseHAM costs for your weapons which are drastically different if you use a Gaffi stick(high Health cost)or a stun batton(high mind cost)more. crippling your secondaries causes the cost of actions to go up and your regen time to increase. if your mostly buffed ... this was your first mistake to be honest. you should have leveled without to learn your limits, and then get to buffing as you approach elite statis, you would have learned a more ecenomic way to use your specials and that just letting your natural speed and regular attacks deal a tremendous amount of damage. I have been buffed once, thats right once. my fencing skills are 3,2,4,3. I wear little to no armour. keeping my secondaries above 400. Racial bonuses keep my action secondaries above 600 somy action pool is the smallest because the costs are minimal and the regen is the fastest. also neither of my weapons are particularly taxing on my action. my pools are 800, 700, 800 and every other point is divided amoung the secondaries, health secondaries are maxed as a consequence thanks tolack of any racial bonuses here. I have died 3 times, and every time thanks to a ranged combatant shooting me in the back while beating on his buddy. Blast resistant armor would have helped ... maybe ... but thenI would have gotten thumped by the guyI was beating on.

Blast resistant armor would have helped ... maybe ... but thenI would have gotten thumped by the guyI was beating on. Three notes to consider:
1) Your a melee combatant, try and keep your battles to kenetic battles, especially if soloing, fightmobs that deal kenetic. at higher levels we get much better ranged defence, but thats at almost mastery level.
2)Being a master brawler grants you extra defense and offense bonuses, as well as a knockdown, Onehanded Lunge2, that you would not normally have. granted this is an extra 43 skill points.
3) Continuing to be buffed all the time, if you can count on this, I would have to agree with the advise to send as much to your mind as possible, dont negelect the secondaries. Racial caps not withstanding, these are the stats that take the longest to get buffed and are not as available, and it really sucks to get incapped through mind when you still have 2k health and action.
Other fencers may of course have other strategies.
