HI!


I am new to fencing, currently 1 0 2 2. I have not been able to find a stun baton with more than 120 max dmg. Is this about right? I know that some incredible weapons can be made with Acklay bone. What else can I use/loot/find to make a more effective weapon.


Thanks,

Navi

another question plz


(yes i serched the forums - hard to sift throughit, and its a lot easier to just ask it again. did not find this in the faq either, so plz dont flame, just answer the question :smileywink


regarding defence.


if i am equiped with a commando / ranged weapon, do i benifit from fencer defence mods? i.e. if fighting a melee oponent, and iequip my flamer, will i still get the mods.


what about ifi use a heavy weapon? any fencer/commandos here? because a heavy weoponcant really be equiped at all.

That is because the knowledge base is useless, anyone that relys on it needs to be shot, because computers are black and white with no depth, ust face value. Anyway.



With regards to the stacking statement, currently, some.



You will not recive your Melee mitigation, but your melee defense and ranged defense (if at or below 125 total) will stack, as well as the Def Vs State's, Currently, thats supose to have already been nerfed, but this is Sony, big shock eh?



130 is the highest possible for a stun baton, without ackley, (we have had 1000/990's, so .01% below max, in swg that is not enough to round up)



Also, you said your 1-0-2-2, your climbing wrong. Get all of footwork first, then do the rest (That goes for all fighting skills, clinb the speed tree first)

vincent - are you sure melee dmg mitigation doesnt apply when equiping a commando weapon? im pretty sure i sent a csr that question and he/she said mitigation carries over to any weapon equipped. not that csr's are the most knowledgeable people and always right, i just thought that question was and easy one to get right.

Well, you can go test it your self if you want but il tell you it doesnt.



thats number 1, number 2, 90% of the time, CSR's are Wrong


Most CSR's do not even play swg, so all they know is what their told, which is often wrong, due to some hot-shot straight out of school thinking he can see everything.



Mitigations are only link'd to the skill that they are gained in, Ie you only get ranged mit (with commando) using a heavy weapon, If you drop your weapon, to say, throw a grenade, youll lose that mitigation, try it.



Same goes for secondary defense(s) that do not work, you dont dodge (more then the 1% chance) with a flamethrower do ya? nope.



You can only dodge (more then the 1% to all) with a dodge-linked weapon, thats a pistol(any, including bh) or a fencing weapon (including generic survivals and stones), Same rules apply for mitigations, the Def vs states, and melee/ranged def are supose to be that way too, but currently they are not.
