i have been seeing alot of ppl start with intim, dizzy 1 or 2 and then lunge. then scatter? i am a novice fencer so not sure about the moves. please explain them to some degree and what type of weapons you fight with, stun if armored or a gaffi if not is all i have seen. also how much do the acklay weapons run on sunrunner because those seem to be the best. Any advice at all would be appreciated.

I dont know about other people and i am only a novice fencer but i use lunge1 to force my NPC targets to kneel hit them witha dizzy hit and then intimidate1 then straight any combination of other hits i want. Last time i played my fencer i was successful in getting a dizzy knockdown against tuskens and usually had their health down to one or two more hits by the time they were standing again.

I am a master Fencer, here is what I do for each situation:
NPCs, dizzy, dizzy (to make sure it sticks), lunge, blind, body hit
creatures,spin attack (to blind), then body hit 3 to finish
PvP, stun dmg (unless no armor), intimidate (lowers there defenses and dmg output), blind (lowers tehre accuracy), dizzy, lunge, scatter hit (or body hit 3 depending on weaknesses).
dizzy/lunge is basically a knockdown. dizzy infers a penalty to recover from a posture change, so dizzy before you change there posture.
As a master I don't always rely on these options, may just go to damage right off. But as a young fencer, state effects are great to give you the advantage. Always try to land intimidate and always use center of being. I always have spice, food, drink and try to get a full buff. Good luck and have fun. BUt you really need to experiment with moderate level creatures (con white) and see what works best for you.

As a master fencer, 1 handed hit 3 creates the blind effect so unless you're actually fighting multiple creatures at once, apply blind with 1handedHit3 as it has a higher damage multiplier.

Know your opponent. Eat KD defense food... Dizzy2 until it sticks, lunge 1 if you feel you really need it, then lay into them with scatterhit2
I was offered 10mil for my acklay stun baton 245-223 damage. Didnt sell

sorry but what does scatter hit do exactly? is it random pools with alot of damage? so the rule of thumb is against an equal or superios opponet appl yblind and intim, dizzy and lunge, then go for scatter or body 2 depending on stats? also how is fencer master level dodge? great, ok, need pistol, or food?

I macroed a combo of health bleed/dizzy/blind...then i either spam 1handhit3 or healthhit3 or scatterhit3, with spinattack2 for more than one NPC opponent. I don't PvP much, and when I do, i have friendly duels without armor/buffs and on special occasions, no special move use for both sides LOL.
On these duels, i dizzy/lunge1 and then spam 1handhit3 til they fall...i don't fight composite/buff rifleman/cm or any of that non-sense, just to complicated and stressful for my play style.
I feel that the only fair duel is one WITHOUT armor/buffs/food for BOTH sides. Fencer vs any master elite brawler is a speed game...Fencer vs any master elite ranged is a kite game...Fencer vs Fencer is a weapon speed game. Thats how i see it anyway.
