Fencer Archive

A few friends and I encountered that the other night, it wasn't pretty, but we lived. Most of us anyway, two of us got hit for 3500 points of damage. It's the only one we've ever seen though and I just wish *I* could do that sort of damage with my baton.

Next time you see an elder with a stun baton you should do /open on her and check out it's stats. I do that on crazy geos all the time, they got like 500-600 damage pistols! Too bad you can't loot those.

I saw that one and ran. Then came back with Novice Marksman and Pistol-I and shot her with a DL44 after bleeding her to death. I just wish bleeds worked a bit more effectively, because the Fatigue I accumulated was brutal.

Wow, that was a tough battle last night. All melee dropped in a matter of seconds. Luckily we had a Squad leader and a good rifleman, and was able to take her down. No loot though, but that I have to say was one of the most fierce NPC's ever.

Been there, done that. Stun armor still gimps their weapon like it gimps ours. Surprised we haven't had a nighsister of singing mountain clan sister post here to complain about making the baton an AP1.

As to the 100% kinetic/stun, its a trade off. My TKM friend and I go NS and SMC hunting all of the time. SMC are easier since they have varied stats (like the NS should have) so we can usually both do damage. The NS are either low resist to kinetic with 100% resist to every rifle damage type or 100% kinetic with a low energy resist so we take turns alot.

Seriously though go to the other side of the map and Hunt Singing Mountain Clan. Their outfits are prettier, they drop the same exact same loot, but they have few 100% resists. Throw on some stun comp. since stun batons seem to be a common weapon there (or 2h curved). Our vibroblade still doesn't do that much damage but at least we can still do some.

I've actually killed a NS elder with a stun baton. I didn't have a full suit of stun armor with me so I just used Chest, Helmet, and arms. When she was about dead I put on my hotpants and spammed Screenshot hehe. It helped that I had 2 people constantly healing me and was close to the speed cap swordsman..
