i find masater sworsman/master doc is a decent combao in pvp i take some kd food (only =47) and as soon as i get dizzy i heal it i use my scythe to put bleeds then somethimnes switch tyo hammer depending on the opponent. but tbh it's no where near as good as defense stackers or tkm with a decent stat migrate and knows what there doing although we are very powerfully in combo with other melee profs casue as soon as someone is kd a tkm my find it difficult to beat a buffed composite opponent where as long as ther eon the floor there easy for my ph with a few heahd hit 3's. i alwasy use bleeds cause if they kill me i perfer the ided that they will get killed by my mates 30 seconds later. also area 3 can be useful dizzy/and posture change is very useful sometimes.

You could stockpile chef goods for a week or a month, but not everyone has that kind of money either.



Most discussions here will revolve around the game in it's base form, without advantages that are privilege to the rich and powerplaying.







The thread is about PvP, not PvE.


If you try to PvP naked, without any doc buffs and food buffs and armor (inyour "base form"),then you die in one shot.


You cannot effectively PvP without million credit armor and a 500K credit weapon.


"Not everyone has the resources or connections to rely on finite goods". If you dont then you die in PvP, it really is that simple.


This is why I no longer PvP. No way am I ever buying expensive armor when the dumbass "repair" system destroys 2 out of 8 pieces when it is time to repair them. I have a Powerhammer which cost 250K. The first time it was repaired by a Master WS with a 98+% effective tool. It's condition was knocked down to the 620's. Nice repair system, huh?


No money = no fun in PvP.

You do know that every point of damage your armor blocks is deducted from the armor's condition don't you?


Pounding on Rancors will take the condition of your powerhammer down fast. If you solo you use specials, you use specials your hammer is used up faster. My hammer went 3 weeks before needing to be repaired. Is your idea of "forever" three weeks?

Here lemme solve your money problem...

Go to dantooine and take picket missions... 9k each

Go to Dathomir and take gian baz nitch missions ...11-12k each

TA-DA! Spend some time doing that for say... a day or two and POOF! 100k will drop in your lap in no time. Rinse repeat and in about a week or so (playing casually even) you'll be up 500k in no time... and in a month your a millionare...until you buy that armor, that sythe, those skill attachments , all that brandy, a few crates of muon, and enough jiggling entertainer bootay to leave you much happier

But if you cant handle soloing any of these.... you deserve your poverty!

We all know that Swordsman sucks in any "real" PvP against experienced players. Why do Swordsmen need Master Brawler, knockdown food, addtional defenses, armor, 600 kScythe blades, etc. just to take onTeras Kasi Artists?

You only need to stop their KD. If they cannot KD you, they are relatively weak. Besides, if we could own every TKM that walked across our path, the nerfhunters would come after us instead of them.

if you're gonna go the whole pulling out the atst for missions why not stay on dant and get 26k missions for mokk and janta. These guys suck and don't respawn. thats 52k+ every time out. so in 20 outtings your a millionaire. that's what i do. or just loot and sell crap. geo cave is nice and easy pickens for a buff armored swordsman.

Carbineers gunning a swordsman down? LMAO LMAO LMAO! I fight purely with swords now, just using carbines to KD kiters so i can get up close to them. I have only been even remotely successful in ANY way with carbineer after the CS nerf by stacking counterattack, and in a pure ranged battle i normally get wasted (by the riflemen)

If I could harvest 150 carniverous meat (which currently rocks on Chilastra) out of each of their backs then I would.


Already have my town's WS hooked up with much Geo loot. When he needs more I will spend a few hours in the Geo cave again.

I am talking about post publish 7 Cabineers! An AOE Knockdown/Dizzy is nothing to laugh at.
