Im currently a Fencer/Doc, however I want to drop doc for pistoleer/fencer/smuggler. The only thing that worries me is not having the ability to do mind damage when using my ranged weapon. Mind damage seems to be the deciding factor in 99.9% of all duels. My question is how do you all compete against a defense stacking fencer?
One more thing, Im currently buying all the accuracy attachments i can find. What would i need to get my accuracy up to inorder to hit fencers in one on one duels?

I generally take some Dead-Eye and some Snow Cake and some Dodge Food (usually Air Cake, but I also have used Pikata Pie) and kite them. Simply put, Pistoleers have more Dodge than fencers, but Fencers have Defensive Accuity and Center of Balance which triggers dodge more often -- a LOT more often. Kiting really is your only option since our Melee defense is only 10 pts better than a Rifleman (eh!?) .

Master Pistoleer,BH 0/0/4/0,TKA 4/3/0/0, Medic 2/0/0/0, It is not as much my template as much as it is my equipment.

I'm master pistoleer, bh pistols14, dirty fighting 1-4, and novice commando; and I beat fencers all the time. I either use last ditch or eye shot...whichever works for that particular individual.

I am Master pistoleer, BHP 4, DF 4, and novice commando also. It is the best IMHO. Not having medic is not that big of a deal because everyone hits mind anyway. The only time I get beat is if they get close enough for the dizzy/KD and then it is a close battle.

You don't need accuracy tapes to hit a fencer. All you need is novice brawler. Intimidate takes all secondary defenses (dodge) to 0.

I've fought loads of Fencers and they are beatable with Pistols /BH pistols 4 but you have to get an intimidate on them as it was said earlier in this thread, and you have to kite like crazy, which was also said earlier in this thread. If they Dizzy you and posture change you then it's all over, light up a cigarette and relax while they scatter hit 2 you to oblivion, unless you have the right food then your able to get up and get running again. If they are very good at PvP and you don't have th eright foods and can't get up from a Dizzy thenthey will spam Dizzy 2 on you periodically and keep you in a constant state of dizzy while changing up to Scatter hit 2 to empty your HAM bars. A 40% stun layered armour suit coupled with a stunPSGhelps nerf the Stun Baton but if it's made with legendary Ackly bones then your gonna feel a pinch even with the stun protection.
Be prepared and have your foods ready for each template you will come up against, you need some Anti KD food for TKM's and some Anti Dizzy foods for Fencers and you stand a half a chance. It's hard work to beat a Fencer but hey we're Pistoleers and nothing comes easy to us.
