Just a heads up for those of us who went Sword/carbines...
Whats it capped at??
Why not cap Melee defense instead?
I love counter attack... this is sadening to me as im not invunerable in PvP or PvE...but still enjoy both. Looks like the flavor of the months ruined it for evreyone again.

yah for carbine/sword stackers it makes picking up carbines just for counterrattack pretty worthless.
a 125 isn't any better than a 115.
i tried out the carbine/sword template and i don't find it any stronger than say mixing melee defense with fencer and swords.

Ok so once again the shaft for me ...125...
I dont understand why melee defense wasn't lowered instead... you can still get over 210 by defense dabling... ughh ever try and hit those guys?!

Ok i just went to my favorite skill calculator sight...
and did some min maxing... I think Riffles would have been a better choice
What do you think of my new template?
M.Sword
TKA 4004
Riffleman 4404
medic 1040
Id have a 117 melee defense and still 100 counter and over 100 ranged defense.
So whatcha think guys?

Unless you have crazy riflespeed mods, I think it would be better to go up the fencer stances line for melee/ranged def. I have about 160/120 def with MHS/MF/Tka4003.

hehe my opinion on that template...
drop swordsman..... atleast to 0404
now i know ill get flamed for this because, well its the swordsman forum, but the thing is, your defenses... suck, not worth the skill points at all imo.

Yeah, it's 125 and I'm not sure myself on the status of melee/ranged defense (although I'm a bit behind on what's on Dev Tracker).

Check out this possible new template for us swordsman given the new changes. You may like it - you may hate it but ive tried to put a little thought into it
