When I started this profession I was a noob, it just looked good. I had no concept of looking at the pros and cons in the long run and I would like to say my month has been a friggin' waste. All of our (fencer) weapons suck and you can't hit !#%# unless you are standing still. How am I supposted to compair to a novice swordsman who has a hammer that does 500+ damage and can take out my 700 hpmind in one #&*$(*& hit?! My dizzy don't so &*@# to him. I'm lucky if I get someone to friggin' fall over cuz of it. Will someone PLEASE help me so my month of long hours andagony of training NOT be in vain!!

sorry man i dont know wat to tell you but if you ae on te road to doctor as a pevious pot mentioned why are you wasting that potential on such a low mind score??



I have 600 health 600 action and 1k mind as a trandosh. Max Stam, Quick, Focus and Will and 700 Str 70 Con all base... i keep a stack of enhance b's for health and action for wen i duel so its fair and i have to say that i rarely lose to a heavy wordsman of equal or slightly higher skill. Never lost to a pikeman and win about 33% of my diuels against a MTK... so sorry man i dont know what to tell you except get a gaffi for dmg and a vibro for armor or stun... everything else imo isnt worth it ...

I've never lost to a swordsman but i have lost to a pikeman befor i decided i was gonna try to duel him without amor and i got the **edit** knocked outta me. Most true brawlers now are getting extra def to kd so its becoming a waste to try kd.

Ive never lost to a heavy swordsman or a pikeman tka the score is 3-2 to them hehe. Dueling is all about who has the fastest reactions(tka dont really apply there) and if you are so bothered about heavy swordsman one hitting your mind then raise it and get a nice comp helmet.

That's the way it is... but strategies can do good things, maybe try warcry1 and use your ten seconds to try to take him down with multiple dizzies?



My one great achievement was killing a master swordsman when I was one-handed IV because I hit him with such a good dizzy he was on the floor till i incapped him. He used a powerhammer and wore high quality composite and clothing with protection layers.

10 seconds isn't really enough time unless you have a fast attack speed. Now 20 seconds, that's enough time.

you think you can't hit squat? try using a big stick that has -55 to all ranges. i've lost to a blue conbefore because i never got a **edit** shot off in the entire battle

you've just got to stick with it. last night i had a breakthrough. i soloed at fort tusken with one sludge panther grouped and made 100k experience. it was positively amazing. it took about 5 or 6 hours of total work, not including breaks and such.

it's a j-curve, i suppose. real slow and not much advancement in the beginning, but then you start getting better exponentially. right now, one of the guys i group with who has been a ranged fighter is starting brawling skills. he cannot believe how slow it is and how hard to get experience. we've all been there, buddy. stick it out, and you'll be well rewarded.

You just have to stick with it, I am a 1 4 4 3 fencer on SHadowfire and me and one friend, a heavy swordsman took down 3 dark jedi masters by ourselves, one at a time of course. Strategy is our game, not dmg, and they cant hit what they cant see.

By the way Get yourself a dmg sliced Gaderiffi Baton and stack your bleed hits, you will bleed creatures for 2800 every 10 sec. Don't worry about speed slices, we get so much speed boosts in our tree that 3.6 speed on a weapon actually swings about 1.6 and speed caps out at 1.0 anyway, dont believe the animation swings, watch your combat window to see how fast you are really swinging, most of the time I hit 2 times before they hit once.

Yea, at the time I wrote that I was used to fighting commandos, that is why i focused more on health cuz if you have 1k health or less one flame will do you in. I have 1200 and after one flame I'm alive and they on the ground getting the crap beat out of them.


BTW I forgot what post I read, and it was a while ago so I can't even find the tread, that a great combo is One-Handed Lunge with a One-Handed Hit (1,2,3) right after it! That is so awsome you attack both hits at the same time!!! I modified it though and this is my combo and i garuntee that you get a K.D. 8 out of 10 times. Dizzy-One Handed Lunge-One handed hit. When they stand up they fall over!!


This leads up to two questions which I ALWAYS get two different answers so I'll ask it this way. Is there anything OFFICAL that says once someone is dizzy it is pointless to hit them more with dizzy? And is there anything OFFICAL that says once i make them bleed with my health hit that it doesn't matter anymore?


Thank you so much with your help!

I fight so often that players no longer stand toe to toe with me lol, commandos and BH's run for their life! and I saw this on a post and it always makes me smile cuz i do it now !!!
