Go TK for overall fun. Go Swordsman if you want to suck in PvP but rock in Fort Tusken, the Geonosian caves, and while fighting rancors. Swordsmen don't get a knockdown unless they have Master Brawler.

Yup, Master Brawler/Master Swordsman/some TK or Fencer. Great fun.

I was a Doctor/Pistol/Smuggler, and started an alt for extra lots and decided to play with rifle/swordsman for hunting purposes. Coming from pistols, where a stopping shot does up to 1000+ from a pre-nerf sliced FWG5 with a 32% powerup, being able to hit for more than that at 0030 Swordsman was a revelation. Now, I hope my swordsman gets aggro'd so I can use Spin2, and being able to rip nearly anything on Corellia as a Novice Swordsman (with good armor) has been a lot of fun. Really, you outgrow starting planets much faster as a Swordsman and practically HAVE to go to Dantooine or worse places to get any decent XP. Barely past Novice on Dantooine I was outdamaging a Master Rifleman with a T21 and a mid-level Pikeman using just a 2h Sword, much less the PH.

The bleed nerf really stinks, I was looking forward to stacking rifle and 2h mind bleeds, but such is life.

It's good to be the tank, and that's what the 2H Swordsman is. Keep your silly state changes, my trade is damage, friend, and business is good.

Welcome aboard!

I meant being able to hit for more than 1000 points begins at 0030 Brawler, sorry. It just gets better as you go in Swordsman, I hit for 2000+ with a good Spin2, on multiple targets, at 0011 Swordsman.

Basically, I missed out on a lot of fun (and a lot of credits) by ignoring Brawler for the first 6 months of my SWG career.

Yeah, the only controlled KD for Swordsman is with Lunge2 from Master Brawler. But in my opinion, fun is wandering through Fort Tusken 2 to 3 hit killing most of them. Lunge2 for KD followed by Hit3 or HeadHit3 can equal an 8300+ floaty damage drifting above their dead bodies. I can live with that.

I think swordsman is the most fun profession Even though they nerfed it i still like it. But that might be because i never tried tk or anything else but hey i mean if u think being able to knockdown evrything beat on them and give self buffs is fun i mean pshh u should go tk but who wants to do any of those

I have an alt that I created whos a Master ArmorSmith and I decided to go Master Swordsman as my combat profession and I couldnt be any happier with my choice. I dont know any other profession that can run through Fort Tusken and gather 12-20 Tuskens around you and just spam 2H Area 3 and kill them all in 3-4 swings wth my Power Hammer, resulting in like 30k XP in under 3 mins.

Cant beat that I say, I went from Novice Brawler to 4,4,3,3 Swordsman in about 3 days.

Swordsman is definately alot of fun, especially when you get to master. Just bashing peoples heads in is fun in it self, but PvE is quite entertaining as well.

TKA is IMO the second most boring class to Commando. You primarily do 2 specials, in both PvP and PvE, which gets boring almost as soon as you hit master. And I dont know why, but I always felt guilty using Unarmed KD 2 in PvP, its just such and annoying attack

I disagree, Master Brawler isnt a must but it definately helps alot. I have no spare SP's to go master Brawler seeing how I mastered Armorsmith along with Swordsman, got 2,0,0,0 medic, Artisan 4,4,0,3, and Tailor 0,2,0,0 for armor componants, and im doing just fine w/o master brawler.
