thanks for the responses i really appreciate it. I know its old news but your right about the accuracy, pikeman just miss soo much and unfortunately its the last combat box before we get the final plus accuracy :/

When I read the description area attack damages, dizzys and stuns, whereas sweep knocks down. Im grinding my way to be a master pikeman and have decided to do the speed line first. I was wondering whether i should then do the offensive technqiues line for area 2 or the defensive techniques for sweep 2. which will help me grind out to master fastest?

pretty sure this is covered elsewhere in a sticky but yes Speed is first priority then defensive then offensive. The specials in offensive are usefull but not as good of DPS as the stuff in speed tree. Plus the specials that do just dizzy or just stun are more likely to make those states stick than AE2 I think.

Yep Speed, and Accuracy are the most important to us...unfortunatly accuracy is the Comabt XP tree
..so its tough to get, also If you are Master Brawler your Lunge2 is nice as it is KD as well, Sweep2 is indeed a great move, its so fun to see 4 Bull Rancors all fall down
but you deffinatly should go speed, first.

The cool thing is that I'll be hitting +15 speed and +30 accuracy around the same time. Oh what a sweet day that will be.

hehe I was lucky enough to have a bunch of extra combat exp left over from when I was a commando so I was able to get most of the accuracy tree early on.
