Hey guys im back for the third time (started last summer came back around christmas and left).


I was a commando but it SUCkS


Im looking for a class thats fast to master and good at pvp.


Will fencer be good at pvp even after the combat balance?


I dont enjoy running from my enemys (Kiting) so rifle man isnt an option for me.


Maybe tersa kasi is better for me???

TKM = PvE badass (somewhat PvP badass with a good 'plate)


Blademaster = PvP badass (somewhat PvE badass with a good 'plate)


Your choice, really. Pick up some extra defense and dodge with Pistoleer 4040 and you'll be in good shape.

At master fencer i could kick just about anythings butt that didnt have stun armor WHILE wearing armor- As in you need armor for PvP to go anywhere. Rifleman- can be killed without armor while buffed (buffed vs buffed) Just pull back into close range combat zone and wait, force them into a Dizzy/Lunge and hammer them, Bounty Hunter- Can be killed... just about anytime. Pistoleer- I had a heck of a time trying to kill these guys- wear stun armor and if all else fails dizzy/lunge and run like heck. Jedi- As a master fencer you can wipe the floor with padawans and initiates. Do a Dizzy/Lunge and its over for them, Don think you would have much luck with Knights and High lvl Padawans though. Swordsman- Dizzy/Lunge puts them down quick (at least most of the time in my experience) and the only thing that will put them ahead of you in fight is that they are wearing stun armor or dont successfully go into Dizzy/lunge because if they have doc or such they will own and theirs not much u can do to fix your mind. Pikemen- They guys are surprisingly hard to kill. I dont recommend going head to head with one, never done it but have heard enough stories. Consider them to be your combat equals I guess. TKM- A TK/Novice Doc and whoop you when your buffed and hes not assuming there is no armor involved. My recommendation- where good armor and stay buffed. These will be your #1 enemy. Carbineer- More irritating than a real threat. Their current HAM cost will hurt them enough to even things out. Combat Medic+other Skill- Assuming you can pull of the right series of first hits before he can you should be fine, other wise your doomed to a Brawlers Tanking nature or the Kiting of a marksman. Commando- Almost no Defences, but in the long run they will come out ahead even if they die- You will several hundred wounds, them with some scratched armor and loss of buffs. Smuggler/Pistoleer- Just watch out for that Last Ditch.


Fast to lvl to master? Doesnt start off that way but the further you get the faster it goes.

Good in PvP overall? I would give it a 8/10

Good in PvE overall? NO. The lack of powerful attacks and weapons will limit you. With buffs but no armor 18k HAM is about as tuff as you will get with exception to a few NPCs and animals.

Side Profession Recommendation- Combat medic. Adding master medic and master combat medic will allow you to kill an opponent which you normally couldnt because of Armor while you tank. If you get into real trouble just run away.
