Thread: Character building swordsman/fencer profession post cu?
The only things steering me toward Swordsman is this: (1) the devs have stated that the damage enflicted by a Master Swordsman will be unparalleled! ... and since none of the weapons that I posses pre CU (sythe blade, Blck Sun Ex Hack, Power Hammer, etc.) come anywhere near having a dps of other weapons in the game, one can only assume that the two-handed Kashyyyk sword and the Sith sword are going to be very very nice (I'm guessing that the Sith blade will have the highest dps, probably close to 700+ dps). Its unfortunate that we have been unable to test out any of these weapons during the respec period to see exactly what the swordsman profession is going to be like. Anyway... (2) the aforementioned Kashyyyk Sword. That thing looks awesome. Although probably not as damaging as the Syth this blade does seem to be in keeping with my character.
All that having been said, I still feel that perhaps the Fencer template may be the best fit. Andone final thing that I have taken into consideration is:
When combined with my other chosen prof of BH, my total pts will breakdown like this:
BH w/ Fencer: Offense 8, Defense 6, Crowd Control 4
BH w/ Swordsman: Offense 9, Defense 7, Crowd Control 2
Alot to consider and time is running out before our final chance to respec our characters. I for one am very thankful that the devs have given us this opporutunity to test out other profs after the CU. However, I wish someone could let me know when the last day to respec is going to be. If u have any info on this please let me know.
Tks in advance.
Aside from character building. Can u imagine the effectiveness of 'rooting' a player with a ranged shot and then coming at him with a 700-1000 dps Sith sword while he was unable to move.. Yikess
