Fencer Archive

Ex-MBHer going melee. I wanted to know how important doc buffs are as a melee class? Is it essential or just good to have? I planned on getting Mast Fencer plus Master Brawler, but am running out of points. Its for Pve at first, then switching to PvP later on.

Doc buffs are way useful. Heck, they're universally useful. Necessary? No. Many folks level without doctor buffs. If you've got the $$$ and you're going after tough missions, the buffs really do help.

For that matter, so does Tattoine Sunburn.

Being a Doctor doesn't really matter at all. Having easy access to buffs, however, does matter. It takes a lot of points to make Master Doctor and if you do go that route you give up a lot of points where you could flesh out a more robust combat character.

Since I have 2 accounts i've made one a Doctor, Muscian and my main is pure combat with Novice Medic for heals only.

I'm a 4440 doctor, 3444 fencer, and i love it, being able to buff yourself, rez your friends, heal yourself to full while buffed, and being able to migrate all your stats to mind, i dont think i'll ever drop doctor now easy money too, selling buffs you can make 100k an hour easy.
