Thread: Fencers and Dueling
Melee vs Fencer,
First off you have to understand that most melee classes do alot more damage than us per hit, perhaps we are only slightly lower than a TK of the Same skill at least till they get level 3 or 4 in TK Power line.
So you will find yourself dropping in one or two hits... If they hit.
Swordsmen (two handed) will go for headshots... and you can guarentee they will try for a head Bleed... but if they do you get the chance to kill them... we have one very nice thing over Swordsmen... Dizzy... Dizzy first then lunge 2 (master Brawler) and they stand a **edit** good chance of not getting up at all.
Of course this is provided they didn't decapitate you with their 2m longer reach.
Pikemen 4m longer reach. Leg hits. drop you on the ground faster than you could say "but". VERY HIGH DAMAGE, will take your leg off in a single hit if they are lucky...
TKA, They will Stun you dizzy you make you bleed fall to the ground and then tap you lovingly to incap.
If you are smart you will Health hit them (Bleed) on a charge from behind while they are distracted and run out of range. Charge again with body hits and you might take any one of these guys down.
Other tactics besides that and Dizzy and lunge... well we lack alot of skills and moves...I'll leave you to figure some out... and in my PA we will have dueling lessons between Melee Professions jsut to find them.

What kind of person is distracted during a duel?
Keeping them blinded/intimidated/warcryed and using COB is more than half the battle. Macro stack your bleeds, so you hit them early with 1 and 2. When theirmind gets low get out your vibro blade and spam scatter shot.
