Which do you use the most?
Which do you find most effective vs specific types of foes?
Now that the toughness is fixed do you still find yourself using the move(s) that bypassed it?

Never used Scatter...
I lay all state effects and if I'm not dead by then I knock them over and slice them open.
Then redo all state effects as they drop.
Intimidate 2 and Warcry 2 I use most, with Spin2 and Dizzy2 comeing in a close third and fourth, Lunge2 only when the oportunity presents it'self or they try to kite me.

Blind, Dizzy, and Intimidate are your most valuabler attacks if you can get them to stick. That being said dont spend too much time on them if they don't stick the first or second time dump them for some damage. One-handed hit 3 is our most powerful attack but I still like scatter hit 2 because it hits mind pool more than anyother and most peoples mind pool is still the easyist(sp?) to damage. Mainly just duel with some of your buds a lot and figure out works best for you with the skills you have.

For me Blind and Intimidiate do wonders. Because I hate using armor all the time and hate spending money for buffs I like what those two do. Blind makes them less accurate and Intimidate cuts the damage they do by 50%. After that I dizzy/lunge them and use OneHanded Melee Hit to deal the damge. It works nice but I don't think Intimidate stays long enough.

I first try to knockdown and dizzy, then i apply blind and intimidate them. Depending on which pool is drained the most I'll use different moves. If it's health I'll target health, if it's mind I'll scatter hit. If it's action I just go for health. I never even knew about scatterhit2 until they fixed it. So I tried it out to find it's ability to drain the mind extremely useful.

In PvE, if i am surrounded by a big mob i use dizzy2....most people ask me why i dont use spinattack2 and here is the reason. Dizzy2 has a dmg modifier of 3.5 and Spinattack2 has only 3.0. So when it comes down to it Dizzy2 is MUCH FASTER when it comes to an area attack
(spend a couple days in the geo caves with all those damn jedi and you learn a thing or two about your profession:smileytongue

Intimidate, Dizzy, Lunge2 to start. Toss on Blind and the Bleeds while they're helpless, then get to work. If I think they have synthsteak steak up, scatter to break it faster. If I think they have a PSG up, hit3 with a gaffi to break it faster. If they don't have stun armor for some reason, bodyhit3 with the baton. If they do (and they should), probably scatter2 to damage mind...really depends on the situation. I tend not to rely on scatter2 too much, though.

Honestly it's rare that I find an opponent I am able to damage without DOTs nowadays. Stun PSGs and Stun comp have made stun batons useless, Gaffis are useless because of 80-90% kinetic resist composite, and all our other weapons are a joke.
So basically I go in using warcy to delay them for a moment and then intimidate them. then start swinging dizzy2 with my lame double mind dot janta knife to start the poison ticking and land that dizzy. then after im sure i've landed both of the mind poisons on my janta knife i switch to the mind poison gaffi and do my lunge, try to get them on the ground obviously. then after i think i've landed that one i switch to my other mind poison gaffi, and use hit3 on them to blind, then switch to my mind fire gaffi, try to land that, switch to my mind poison knife try to land that, switch to health fire knife, try to land that, can you see the pattern here. DOTs are all that count nowadays. If i happen to come across one of those unfortunate souls who is totally unprepared and not wearing stun comp or psg I just land dizzy and lunge with the acklay stun baton and smoke them. if they are not wearing any armor at all then I use the 300-400dmg gaffi and pummel them. but those last two situations are pretty rare.

heres waht i do as a master fencer, 4030 doc, 0040 pistoleer
first as the fight begins, i warcry them, then i itnimidat them, then, i take my quick pvp foods (assumign we are ovedrt and just met in coronet, and i didnt hae time to take food before here is my chance),
then i try to dizzy or blind or lunge
if they put any states on me any DOTS, anything wahtsoever, i warcry them, cure my **edit**, intimidate them again,a nd get back to the fight
warcry is ur best friend if u have doctor, gives u time to heal and not have them reapply **edit**

If they like to run... dizzy em then use lunge. If they have stun helmet (dizzy kd'ed or not) use hit3. Theres no point in putting states on them while they are dizzy kd, thats just retarded and your wasting your time when you could be hurting them.
