I'm a fencer and just bought a full set of composite.


Yeah I'm going to have to do a stat migration to wear all of it, but whatever I lose I'll make up with food, buffs, and where necessary, drugs.

Ubese-If your fencer, you fight up close and personal, and some good 70%+ ubese+fishak+good stims can really make you into a force to be reckon with, since you can use fishak to heal away, while encum on the pricier suits isn't bad. I myself have a brand new set of ubese, 77% unsliced and can wear it all with good spare stats, nothing below 100, and most greater than that.



- I support keeping & balancing the current combat system You can too

Artisan raises and important point...armor selectionalso depends on the style of fighting that you plan to do.


If you're going to do mainly PvE, then yes, Advanced Ubese is definitely the way to go. Most MOBs only deal kinetic damage, which is Ubese's strong point.


However, if you're going to be doing a lot of PvP, you'll want composite. Ubese doesn't have the heat, acid or electricity resists that composite has. And guess what you get hit with a LOT in PvP? You guessed it, flamethrowers, scatter pistols& LLCs.


If you're really rich you can get a set of each.

Composite + Buffs = happy fencer

I wouldn't worry much about trying to wear your armor sans buffs, its only useful in the thick of combat. A handy thing to do if your secondaries are seriously nerfed with a comp suite's encum is to set up an armor macro to take it off for some quick down time to regenerate. Very handy thing to do and under-used.

I did macro for putting armor on/off - very handy - thanks
but i still unable to put all armor pieces on.
i did stat migration for quickness(+100) and smg else. BUt this statmigr goes so _d_amn slow - does anyone know rate of stat migration?
