I was planning on TKM/ M Fencer / M Swords, 3 types of weapons xp for the jedi grind, but I cant have all 3 with the points needed for FS boxes, so I am ditching swords and just going TKM / M Fencer(I would love to ditch TKM and maybe go 4/1/0/0 or 2/1/0/0 but I dont have money for armor atm, so TKM must stay until I get some)... Ive heard head hit and critical hit are good to get, is there anything else I need from swords?
Also, I'm kinda new to fencer, and I was wondering about usefullness of a few moves...
Bleeding hit... worth it in PvP? PvE?
Scatter hit... it seems that it does nothing besides hit for less than melee hit/strike(i forget which one is my auto attack)... I havnt used it in PvP but whats it used for?
Binding Attack... I know what it does, but any usefullness in PvE?
Body Hit... how does it compare to head hit?

Bleeding hit... worth it in PvP? PvE? We just learned that our bleeds stack on each other so were 3 days ago I would tell you bleed is useless right now, I have to say I don't know how good it is until we test it more, but basicly you can stack 3 bleeds on each body section, useing bleed hit
Scatter hit... it seems that it does nothing besides hit for less than melee hit/strike(i forget which one is my auto attack)... I havnt used it in PvP but whats it used for? We believe that scatter hit is for NPC/Players in that it strikes a bunch of body parts increasing your odds of hitting an unarmored section of your enemy, again only works when not wearing full armor and not on MOBs
Binding Attack... I know what it does, but any usefullness in PvE? I find binding strike usefull just keep it on them 25% slowage of action regen and add up in PVP, It can be usefull in PVE if you find the mobs hitting to hard with specials try this to limit the specials they can use, not sure how effective it is on MOBs though
Body Hit... how does it compare to head hit? Headhit is better, but then again Swords in general does more dmg then fencer, but it is fencers dmg attack.
yeah stick with head hit and crit hit those are some big dmg specials.
as far as fencer moves refer to changes I made ^

I would suggest getting the melee defense line and the general melee accuracy line (0044). These are skills mods that will be useful even when using a fencer or tk weapon.
You will still have basic Head Hit, andImproved Critical.
Scatter Hit actually does a good deal of damage in PvE. It's just not reported correctly in the combat log.
Improved Body Hit has about the same damage multiplier as Head Hit (don't know about action costs).
