I was just lucky on the FS xp...

Through my trying out different

professions I had a free unlock

right after the patch.

Plus I was capped on 2 handed,

combat, and Rifle xp. (glad I never

fired a rifle after I dropped Master

rifles )

I am working on that right now. was Master Sword/MCH for a long time, and finally got sick of the dev-abuse (Ack... don't ban me) Decided to pick up pike so i could have 2 combat professions to max xp for FS exchange. Going for Master Sword/Master Pike/Master Brawler/Scout 4000/Novice medic.

I thought about fencer, but i see to many of them around, and i don't care about being uber, and i wouldn't get TK unless someone paid me.

Just a thought, but unless mask scent and the added burst run is very important to you, you might want to take those 5 points in scout 4/0/0/0, change it over to scout 3/0/0/0 and grab medic 2/0/0/0 so you can /firstaid and stop bleeds. The terrain negotiation is exactlly the same.

Master Swordsman

Master Fencer

Master Brawler

Pikeman 0/0/4/4

I tried this out on TC and man nothing can beat the defenses of this template. With swordsman you got Counterattack,Fencer you get dodge and Pikeman you get block and with master brawler you get indim 2 warcry 2 and nice skill mods

dodge/counterattack/block do not stack, meaning if you are useing a pike, you cant counterattack, if you have a stun dildo out you cant block, etc. id also suggest medic, at least novice, if not then 0040 for stim e's.

This is pretty much what my template is atm. Its as follows:

Master Brawler, Pike, Swords
Meditation 4
1000 medic
1044 combat prowess
0010 enhanced reflexes

I'm really like my template atm, but I think I might drop swords to pick up 3440 fencer and 4004 TK to stack on more defenses.

I'm Master Pikeman/Master Swordsman/4-0-0-0 Scout/4-3-4-0 Medic.
Speed capped on Pikeman, and it helps unbelievably. I use Pike 95% of the time. The other 5% is when im actually hunting with other people >_> (buncha typical swordsmen or riflemen) and we're all trying to bomb mind. Though I can still take down somethings health with a LVA and hit3 about as fast as 3 swordsmen can take down mind with headhit3 and good scythes, I generally find to quite counter-productive. I cant beat em, but might as well join em if it means getting done faster. lol.
