Since your new, il write this in replacement to the horrible (and deadly) advice Bumble is saying.
For PVE, you need to A, check the survey uptop for "most damage at my level" and stick to that.
Never, Ever, use a stun baton for PVE, I am yet to see a monster that is weak to stun, and has armor lairs (I think the Elite Tuskins actually might, but im not sure on that).
When an armor or creature is "vunerable" to a type of damage, that means all armor lairs, AND resistances are IGNORED.
Comp armor = Armor:light (1) and 80% kinetic. A gaffi baton doesnt do jack to that. However, its weak to stun (almost always), so stun may only be, 130 max, however aginst armor'd players (Like ubese, composite) it does 100% damage, not, in the composite armor's case, a meer 10%.
In short- Gaffi stick (once your like footwork 2 i think) is the way to go for all pve, with an exception for say, rancors, with the Vibroblade.
PvP- Main gaffi stick (aginst unarmored) 2ndary of Stun Baton (Aginst all armor)

ok man, listen, Vincent MUST be a noob. I'd say 90% of the creatures on the tougher planets either have no resistances to Stun damage OR have a vulnerability to stun. The strength of a Fencer is in his versatility. Don't just run into battle wielding ANY type of weapon. Examine your opponent, pick a good weapon to suit that opponent, and then kick his arse. In the case of PvP, a stun baton is GREAT against composite armor, but worthless otherwise.

Talk to a master weaponsmith, he should be able to help you.
A stun baton is not an amazing weapon but rather a strategic one - which, when used right, can seriously improve your odds. For example, most composite armor is resistant to everything EXCEPT stun, in which case, the guy who thought he was safe is in for a rude awakening when you jack him with two 1h3s.

I have my Stun Baton set to Shift-F11 and My gaffi stick set to Shift-F12. Both sliced. I just about ALWAYS use the baton. On problem.....I forget to change it when attacking lairs. They do no damage to inanimate objects. I would not want to be caught w/o my stun baton on creature missions.
