Thread: Best Race for Bonuses as Fencer?
Always loved Rodian for their one handed bonus, but I cant help think id be better off with human or Wookie.
Any thoughts or comments?
I'd stay away from wookie.. just cause they can't wear any armor to stop the massive amounts of kinetic damage your bound to come across while training for a melee elite profession. My personal preference is zabrak because you have the high willpower and equilibrium skill... but that's just me... good luck in the long road of fencer which will ultimately make you the coolest looking fighter in the game

-chee
clearly bias master fencer/doctor............ zabrak
Mon Cal are teh win.
No one has a truely useful skill bonus, at least not enough to make you pick them over stat options/visual appeal.
i would say either trandosh or zabrak
Trandosh - you get the second highest str stat ( beind wookie) and you get the highest by far con stat ( min is 700) both which alow for easier use of our most potent weapon the gaffi stick... now that alo allow you to have a 450 quickness and 400 stam wich snt the greatest but... as long as you stay away from the curved and ryyk you are doing fine ( wich imo are both a waste of space anyhow) trans also get a +10 melee defense and spcial racia ability of ergeneration wich kicks in about 150-200 more constitution for even beter regen yet. You are limited in pieces of armor worn wich imo helps more then urts cause you aent tempted to wear so much amo and reduce your stats more.
Zabrak - There is erally only reasons i say Zabrak.... first being acial ability of equilibrium. Second being that their mind ats seem to eflect the trans health stats wic is te only drawback to my trandos theoy is that at max they are 1000-500-600 so though you can have decent mind pools and stats it isnt enough when fighting Zabak can help tat wit bete stats and if you back it up with doc which is my fav combo for fencers then the equilibrium i even more usful and you get all te physical stat you need as well... just max all you mind pool stats
the other imo are ok but teh rodian bonuses at lo lvl are nice but higher not needed... woojkie have god sat overal but fall short on the key stat i think we need wich i ergeneagtiona bilities... its fine to use less ham uing special but i dont need to waste my mind in a fight healing when i use i enough of it fighting already ( as an fyi i use onehandhit2 with a 170-26 dmg gaffi for 35 mind a swing... it adds up when you hit every second)
hese are just my opinions feel free to flame on flamers...
I know everyone says stay away from wookies, but it might not be such a bad idea. I am a wookie blademaster. I shifted my stats to max out my mind stats. The reason for this is Mind is the limiting factor in a battle if you can heal. Sure I don't have armor so I take damage faster, but that can be healed. Mind cannot. I have a high mind regen rate, so downtime is minimal in the field.
If they allow for mind healing, then wookies lose the only advantage they currently have.
