Was MSwordsman/Mpike pre CU, loved it and was gonna keep pike as long as i could when Jedi came. CU came, was stubbron and stuck with my template realised i sucked at it. Went TKM/Msword and was great cause of inniate armor. I had a pal come back and stuck with Mpike/Msword and said it was great, so I used my Token respec (not the devs best idea

) and went back to my beloved template.. and now i gotta relearn how to play.

So how do I use this to the same extent as my old template. Without inniate armor its feels a little bit like busy work since I have to put the states on and they never seem to stick for a long amount of time or do as much debuffing as they should. So any suggestions to how i can use this more effectively without having to resort to armor? (I'm to poor/cheap to pay for armor, sorry Smiths)

PS: I want my Polearm Area attack 2 animation back

Honestly, I don't see any real way for you to live in the CL 80 world without armor. Make sure you've got CoB running at all times (setup a macro), intimidate every single chance you get, knockdown as often as possible, and pull carefully, and you might be okay....

This is my template. Use a Vibrolance for Energy damage, Powerhammer or Bladestick for Kinetic. Use Critical Strike/Impale as primary damage hits, Power Hit/Leg Hit/Head Hit occasionally work well too. Intimidate/Stun/Warcry/Armor Break your bum off. Run COB macros. Eat yer Canape and stuff. About the only people I have trouble with using my template (which also has 0440 fencer and a bunch of FS crap) are Master Defender Jedi. Ranged guys get cocky cause they can root me.. most of them can't do enough damage though.. especially when Ruby Bliel/Stim Ds are involved.

Of course all of that is a moot point if YOU DON'T WEAR ARMOR because in most situations I've been in, armor has been a do-or-die thing. Please wear armor.
