Depends on your tastes. Fencers hit REALLY fast for decent damage... and I do enjoy the benefits of dizzy/1h lunge.

Swordsmen do HUGE damage but hit really slow... mind attacks are fun too.

I thought to handed swords need to balanced when we will acquire shield and offhand weapons, now I don't see the necessity

The difference is you fencers can actually use your specials. We just sit back and swing, because we just kill ourselves if we even try to special. Also fencing has the advantage of hitting health pool with specials. You can special half the fight and then stop. Due to the rarity of hitting the mind pool randomly, if we stop specialling half way through a fight, it's basically like starting from scratch.

Honestly, you guys have nothing to complain about. Considering the gimpiness of the swordsmen at the moment, especially in concern to HAM costs, I'm tempted to just drop it and switch to fencer.

I've seen swordsman doing about 2k damage, while I was using special with 500 damage. So why bother using specs?

with my one handed hit 2 I can do upwards of 2.5k damage, along with the special that postures down is great against melee fighters

Wow, you can do 2.5 to other players in PVP. You don't even need to lunge or dizzy if you can do that much. Whats the stats on your sword?
