Should I get Intermediate footwork or intermediate stances and grips.I als ohave novice pistoleer so i can stack health shot 1 and 2, can you stack heath hit 1 as well. Or would it be better to get stances and grips for the melee and ranged defense bonusues. Or maybe bodyshot2.... Any help / suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hmm..stances grips is a good thing; but for a Fencer footwork is invaluable.

Even if you already have a bleed attack-the stats footwork will give are well worth it in the long run.

Defense mods appear to be broken. Go for footwork first it will serve you well.

all three have their uses. stance and grips defense for first tier is sub par and scatter hit doesnt help much. Footwork gives you bleed and and speed. The speed helps and bleeding can allow you to take out tougher targets by bleed and run or even jill a target while you are in capped. techiniques helps because body hit 2 is so much more reliable than one hand hit2. All in all i say footwork then techiniques.At least get those two before going to any tier 2.Get foot work first because one hand hit 2 will do fine at your current level but i highly recommend getting techinques second as my hunting has gotten much easier since i got it.

I would also start with Footwork... this is the most usefull ability for me. But stance and grip is not bad either.

Go with footwork first. Stack the two pistol bleeds at range or while charging. Switch to a VB. Blind and healthhit1. Slap on some good armor (advanced chitin with at least 35% kinetic, preferably 50% or higher)and switch to a high damage sword (sliced for damage of course). Hack away with your normal attack until it dies. This works very well for me. Between the blind and the armor, it will take a long time for you to die.
