I need some advice for my novice Fencer. just got footwork 2 and I am using up my HAM fast.(gad baton)


I am Sticking with Noivce Medic so keep that in mind. I'm also a wookie so no armor.


The 2 Ham styles I was thinking of were


1: Max out Strength and Quickness so I use less HAM with specials. (didn't work to well as carbineer)


minimize Stamina and Constitution. (since I'll be healing myself)


keep all my mind stats about 1/2 way filled and put the rest in Health and Action with a little more in health.


2: Minimize Strenght, Constitution, Quickness, and Stamina.


Max out Focus and Willpower. And have full Mind (or almost full)


Put the rest in Health and Action with emphasis on Health.






I didn't put exact stats on because I don't think most fencers are Wookie, and it would be a pain too.


Other ideas?


I'd love to test them both out but stat migration takes forever and a day.

i'll tell u one thing you use A LOt of mind just doing special attacks, so unless it takes one stim pack to heal you up you will get sooooo many mind incaps. trust me on that. what i did was max out constitution and stamia so i didn't have to waste much mind on healing

well first we need to know what type of weapon you are using. if you want the best HAM use possible go with a vibroblade , you cant beat them. If you are using a health / action draining weapon ( gaffi, ryyk) buy tatooine sunburns in stock and use them before fights. if you are using a n action mind draining weapon(curved , stun baton) sunburn and muon gold i guess will fix problem. Also doctor and Dancer buffs will easily solve these problems for you too.

Well as I said I'm using the gaffi right now. I plan on using that, and the stun batton until we get some decent weapons . I'll Probably throw in a vibro blade too.


I forgot about the sunburns, I'll have to pick some of those up.


Right now though I'm looking at the Gaffi for my main weapon.

#2 will probably end up working out better for you.. but i would not go for minimums on HA secondaries. You will be using a lot of health up with your moves, having a good str and qui will tone it down a little.

well max you health secondaries... this wi allow you to be as good as you can with a gaffi but your at a dis-advantage with wookies having a low con score... but the igh st off sets it a litle... then i would mid your other secondaries and try to keep your mind pool up thee... maybe no lower then 850 on ealh and action and 800 on mind... avent looked closely to see where you can go for stats cause i dont like the wookie stats...



best thing fo you tough if you killling youself is to just get a vibro and be done with it...
