hmmm...i dueld a tkm today and wiped his a$$

/shrug

My Cm toon's only weakness is a HUMAN doctor. My cm toon has properly migrated human mind stats soI can poison over and over again at no mind cost. I killed the wookiee doctor and his 9 friends while they were trying to blow up my friend's base because of the extreme mind cost to him with cure poison and cure disease. With a Krayt Lightsaber I was killed in 5 seconds by a Jedi. Lol, I know its a rare weapon but at 1.0 speed with 1,000-2,000 based damage they can mess me up. The only reason Jedi Knights aren't uber is because apprenticeship exp is broken and TKA is so overpowered with dizzy/knockdown. As soon as we have Jedi Masters, they will be right up there with TKA's, Riflemen, and Combat Medics.

ive been master swordsman for a while. if u try to fight a bounty hunter or anyone with a knockdown hit(especially tka, they almost unbeatable some of em), u will have a hard time. especially if they use a gun which follows u for a head shot. the thing that sucks is that they can run away and shoot, and u have to chase them. plus they can shoot faster than u can hit. but, swordsman is great for npc's and non pvp. alot of dmg when u hit master.

Depends on the situation.

Last night i was in a 60 person pvp fight defending a city (east of Mos Nevah - dont rem the name) and i did very well until the CM mind poison went in.

1. COB is the daddy. It saved my ass at least three times taking on commandos. Follow with Intimidate.

2. Play smart. Melee all waited in the Reb base so the enemy had to come into sword range.

3. Go for dizzy with Hit 3 then keep using Area 3. If he goes down he's screwed.

4. COB. I realise that i said this already but it really is the difference 'tween victory and death.

As you have been mostly playing PVE (your a swordsman after all) then dont be surprised with TKM's (who play PVP all the time) beat you. Just learn the tricks.

I fought our TKM and once i had COB/initimidate on him he ran and beat me from range with the Stun Rifle. He played smarter than i and i have learned from this.

ur damage migration isnt up yet where his is that why ur hiting for so low after u get higher up in the migration it will hit much harder at master most melee i hit for around 80-300 ranged i hit for 100 + it gets better swordsmen dosnt truly mature in pvp till u hit master and get master brawler if u have the points adv to do soid stay away from dueling ppl that are masters till u hit master urself it will help

swordsmen are awesome in pvp battles if you use them right, currently i can boast that i have only lost 2 duels, which is quiet amazing cause i am the type of guy wou goes around looking for trouble, i usually duel maybe 6 times a day, my max damage to any profession with a special is 1500, and my damage with a normal hit is 300, and my hammer sucks.... most i have ever done to a tkm is about 700 with a well placed mind hit... i dont suck in pvp cause my speed is more than triple that of a normal master heavy, 93, normal is 88.. thank god for enhancements.. good luck on it, i recommend mastering brawler to

I made Master Swordsman a couple of days ago, dueled a TKM. The entire fight I hit him once, he almost never missed.

TKM d.p.s. is too hard to compete against, and they are accurate. Oh well.

Ok I want to know what the rest of you that "own" tkms do when they have armor on. When most people have armor on I hit for about 100 damage and I get 200 health cost... nows thats sad not to mention the tkm will just dizzy/kd you after one hit then beat the **edit** out of you. Swordsman sucks in PvP thats it. A master fencer I know has a master heavy swordsman alt he never plays on cuase it sucks so bad. That guy also beat me in a duel with a stone knife. First thing I use area attack3 for 60 damage with the armor prevention added in next he makes me kneel and dizzied and I fall down and... well you know the rest.
