Hi all,
I'm on Chimaera with Ranger 3 2 4 4 and Swordsman 2 4 2 2. Aim is Master Ranger, Master Swordsman and Novice Medic for Stim Bs.
I have a sword that does kinetic damamge and a hammer that does blast damage.
I see animal stats but don't know what weapon to use on what beastie.
Any tips please?

Its a matter of speed vs their defenses. Until you hit masterswordsman the power hammer is really really slow. But it has a damage that a lot of creatures dont have defenses to which is blast. My rule of thumb is this. If they are higher then kin 30 i use the powerhammer. If they are 30 or below (or unarmored) i go with my sword.

The powerhammer is not only (too) slow for your progress, it also is quite inaccurate.
Right now I'd recommend a speedsliced twohanded curved sword for almost every situation, as soon as you get the scythe blade certification (in swordsman 0003) switch to a speedsliced scythe blade.
The swordsman board would be a bit more matching to ask a question about swordsman btw

It was in Publish 10.2 Calc. Didnt you see it in notes
- Player Fodder gets +20 to 2h sword speed at master
But when they realized it didnt benefit the jedis. They dropped bloodfin, its still down, and removed it. Im suprised you didnt catch that patch note before it was removed. It also mentioned
- New loot item Paks Paddle of Punishment
- New loot item Bothan Muzzle

I so want to comment on the highlighetd iten, but it would just be wrong of me...
So, you have any .tre files of the paddle or muzzle?

And as for the Pak's paddle. I seemed to have killed that thread. With bugfin down i feel bad that i did it. Im not a prude and i thought it was pretty darned funny. It wasnt my intent.
Look im feeling just a little guilty
Im sorry

In all fairness, it was not unstickied, it was just relocated to the 'Have a Question for Rangers?' thread that IS stickied! SCORE!

In all fairness, highjacking is becoming a bit interesting on this board. It's great
