greetings, I just mastered fencer last night I was very happy to have done it and have spent the last couple of days hanging around the mokk's on dant to finish,
only prob I have is this, whats the point of dodge, it dont work properly, I had a nice friendly duel with a friend TKM by the way but no other combat skills, I'm using air cake so I was under the impression that being a master fancer with aircake should give me the ability to dodge a couple of blows I know I wasnt going to win but a couple of dodges would have justified the work of getting master

Did you have Center of Being going? That vastly increase your dodge.
Also TKA is the most accurate profession in the game, they are SUPPOSED to hit a lot, they just don't do much damage.

your master fencer and you lost to a TKM?.. hahahah.. hahahah.... hahahahahaha... ok.. i have a MSwordsman/Doc and have dueled a couple TKMs.. here is how it goes...
ME: /duel
TKM:/duel
US: fight and fight...
ME: Get Dizzy
ME: /healstate dizzy self
ME: get KD
ME: get up
US: Continue fighting
US: get frustrated and /endduel cause noones taking the lead and all we're doing is destroying our armor
.... TKM is good... if their oponent isnt wearing 80% kenetic armor. same with swordsmen i guess.. but eaither way... i always get complaints about "Why do you counterattack so much!? "... even from TKMs.. so seeing as fencer gets higher dodge then swordsmen gets of counterattack.. your eaither bugged.. or i dont know cause if you have a CoB macro running you shouldnt be getting hit as if you were a dwarf nuna... or are you? .. hehehe.. anyways, i hate that gorath is always one of the last to come back up.

TKM have the ability to apply stun states to you. When you are stunned our defense get slashed badly and even with CoB going the TKM's accuracy will prevail in this fight. The counter to this? Intimidate! It slashes his ability to do damage dramatically. Get yourself a bio-engineeredmelee/stun defense undershirt and that will help ALOT. Keep throwing in intimidate to keep the TK's damage low (he'll be doing the same to you) so you can survive long enough for the stun to wear off should you get caught with one. As a fencer/doctor I just cure them off so no biggie. As a Combat Medic/Rifleman once I land a stun state I'll own any defense stacker with my rifle alone.

for me using dodge food + a cob macro + slapping my opponent with blind and intimidate means I don't get hit very often. Plus as a doctor I can heal away any state thrown at me (gotta love whiners who make stupid rules like "NO HEALING YOURSELF" in duels lol).
