If I wrote up a FAQ on how to get past Fencer's defenses I for one am getting tired of hearing people complain about it on the boards.

I am against this completely and I will tell you why =)
Most of the people playing this game are the same people that enter in the cheat codes on thier newgames before even playing them. They rely on others to do thier homework for them and by giving them a guide we would not be helping them in any way. In fact it would be counter productive.
..give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach him to fish and he eats for a lifetime or something like that...

stun, blind, dizzy, intimidate! there you ahve it! woot!
So True. Thats prolly the way to kill anyone, but maybe CM's, if you fight a CM just run up and Dizzy lunge and wack him with ur Stun, then if you have meditation, just Med it off.

Not really the place for it here, but I have this dream that Combat Medics wouldn't be able to throw poison/disease (or would have a reduced chance to hit) while they're stunned, blind, dizzy or intimidated.
It just seems to make sense.

Meh, please don't talk to me about CM's. The devs have ruined PvP with them.

Absolutely not. Let the masses figure it out. I'll be so glad when the combat revamp is done; theincisive crying over professions that are balanced, is starting to get on my nerves.

Please don't........It just enables the lazy.
All the strategies to hit a fencer are on these forums already for anyone that wants to invest some time to find it. Otherwise, they could actually play and find what works.
Make 'em work for it is what I say.

TRY TOO attack mind KD KD KD KD KD try too attack mind, they dont even bother too stack a status effect on you, Meanwhile i put just about every status effect on them in the game, and they have a 10 min recovery time afther the duel from the coutless wounds!

I would say a big no. If they can't figure out how to beat a Fencer maybe this isn't the game for them. Fencer is powerful with the right weaponsand if the other player makes mistakes. Why should we have to make a FAQ for people that are either noobs or dont have the common sense to realize its the enchanced weapon that cost millions that is doing the sickdamage. If they want to win so bad there are very obvious ways to do it, kiting is the #1 (I die lots against Rifleman in about 15 seconds of mindshots). BTW, the only complaints are coming form people that get beat by Fencer's with very uber Stun Bats. These people should know that these weapons are not only rare, they cost an arm and a leg. Every Profession can make a super enchanced weapon, Krated guns anyone. Why is everyone bashing this profession? The best weapons wehave areAP0 for crying out loud. Fencers only get two damage types. What other balance do they want?
Whole point of this game is he who has the best weapons and tatics wins. People losing are more than likely running around with no stun armor, something I'm even guilty of sometimes, and trying to press one button to win.
Most of all everyone needs to stop exagerating....example of a post I just read: a Master Swordsman with a 300-600 Powerhammer AP3getting outdamaged by a 100-150 stun bat AP0 when the person was unarmored. LOL, devs I hope your listening to this crap and ban people for starting rumors like this nonsense.

I can understand your frustration on seeing and hearing the same complaints over and over but it's not our responsibility to teach people how to play the basic game. All skill have descriptions on what they do in the game and part of "playing" the game is learning how to utilize those skills effectivly. Giving someone suggestions on tactics is one thing, posting a FAQ how to negate our defenses just doesn't lend itself to being helpful. It would only passify a collection of whinning people would then complain that it's too much work to apply status effects to a fencer. They should just have a instakill button instead...

It would not really bother me. It is not as though you are the only one who ever figured it out. And if it involves thinking there are loads of people who would not do it even if they knew. I would even applaudposting something like thatif you were to include a discussion about what a fencer's best counter is to an opponent trying to get past our defenses.
