Well i used to duel my fencer friend when i was a tkm and i wooped his butt. Then i became a fencer myself and we had very long fights and it was always a 50/50 chance of who won. Now im a pikeman and well........
I cant hit him at all
i swing at slow.0
i do 50 dmg to him without armor and 5 dmg to him with armor
he ownz me everytime without question
I have +80 speed at the moment with a 3.0 111-380 dmg pike but hell even with a 1500 dmg pike you would still only do maybe 40 dmg to him 
. I sure hope the CU fixes this.

Really? I've never had a problem with fencer's, intim,stun all the time and try and ge ta dizzy knock, then either area 2 or leg hit. Always help to lay a few DoT's 
Also helps to have a high damage pike and definetly speed capped.

3 things:

All that to deal with a run-of-the-mill fencer....
Something's wrong with that.

im not def stacker because i ahve merchant on my template but this was a duel me vs a staker-fencer
im speed capped, 40% stun armor, foods, and 1100 dmg VL
i start the duel and landed 1 intimidate of 6 while i was already dizzy,stunn blind and itim,
i start with a warcry 1 it sticks and start to make area 2 for dizzy/stunn, for the 10 seconds no stat dint got him and each attack was doing 30 dmg, warcry go off and he starts hitting me around 300 dmg per hit, i was hiting him 2/3 of times with acuracy food, and for no more than 100 dmg, i dint last more than 2 minutes and i lost
its cool to know that i lost to someone that have a weapon with 1/4 less power than mines
250 max stun baton vs my 1100 VL

I can beat fencers and TK while blinded, as long as they can be stunned pikeman can win if they stay unstunned.

You don't need dot's to win. Yea it is tougher to beat them but come on, using a dot to beat someone is pretty lame if thats the only thing you are relying on to beat them with. Try actually using skills to beat them rather than poisoning, burning or diseasing their mind.

Fencer is really hard to beat (or even hit) as a pikeman, for some reason dodge is really really good vs pikes, even worse for the pikeman if your blinded. The fact that pikes have like -24 accuracy doesnt help either. Oh yea and the other fact that the damage pikeman does, everyone has 80% resist to it (you can have armor with 80 kinetic, 80 energy and 80 eletricity at the same time), kinda defeats the whole idea that pikeman are supposed to be hard hitters doesnt it
What they need to do is remove the default 80% electricity from comp armor, but I guess after the CU its all going to change anyway.

yep, i THINK they will be getting rid of mitigation in the CU, this should prove to be interesting for us pikemen....i find mitigation and intim kill my damage while using my 900 max LVA. but what you guys really have to do against a fencer is keep them intimidated, cap on speed & get as much accuracy tapes as possible, then just stun/dizzy and pray to get a kd or posture
ignore my edits...i needed to test some HTML stuff somewhere lol
