Swordsman Archive

I may not be one of the oldest (picked it up in december 03 to complement my carbineer) but I was one of the best... Many many a foe (Jedi and non-Jedi alike) on Intrepid can attest to that.

btw arias. any tkm stacker who knew their stuff and played well could make for more of a challenge than a jedi, even a defender in the old system, and master enhancers too (back when theyd run around on force run 3 with full damage)

Ita'lion on bf - greatest/oldest swordsman (hey come on he might be )

/salute

I discovered 2handers in the last week of beta, have been one since. I even remember asking Kaos for the cleaver when they were playing around with it, and the endless debates on where's our sycthe and is the 2h curved better then the Powerhammer, I myself always argued for the powerhammer but that was mainly becuase I am a wookiee and I could use a PH longer then a 2h curved since I had large amounts of strength and very little quickness.

started grinding swords day 1 after launch....since then ive been many professions but always loved both fencer and swordsman....and yeah i remember grinding outside coronet with no speeders or mounts and dieing and running back to my corpse to get my stuff in my underwear...lmao.....good times

Loving my current triple master template atm

good to hear from some more 2handed vets.

How original.

Look at sig... Swordmen has always been in my sig .

Started as saying Future Master Heavy Swordman. Since July 8th 2003 i started on the path to become a swordmen. And have never since then have i ever dropped a single box in Swords. .

it is my favorite profession. Not only is it a play style, it is who my character is. could never drop it.

Not the oldest of course. Gorecki fills that role. Also was the best Swords Corr yet.

IMO your not a true Master Swordmen unless you have went trough all the ups and downs as being this profession. And not a bandwagoner.

In the old System i liked being able to solo but hated the fact that the Swords Profession was viewed as a Loot Whoring profession.

hey dark your a true vet too. ive seen you on forums and stuff but nevre ingame heh.

did you used to go to fort tusken back in like july and august 03? whats his name was the first master swordsman i ever saw on our server.... Idris tyco or somethin like that? o and did you know Cynthia? she used to hang out more in moenia though. anyways, both of them were my early day trainers heh.

Hey people, just wondering if im the oldest Swordsman on these boards. Its not ego or anything like that, id actually like to find some guys who are still swinging 2 handed weapons since launch, or beta even.

Personally, i reached novice swordsman about a week and a half after launch, and have focused on 2 handed since i entered the game I have always loved our profession, even when it went through its worst times, and even when we were flooded when we became too good (yes, thats right, lol). And i love it now obviously, hehe.

I remember when the certification for 2 handed curved sword was in the fourth box in brawler, and the only weapon worth using up until that point (and pretty much the only one attainable, since weaponsmith hadnt gotten high enough to create cleavers or 2 handed curved yet) was the heavy axe. stats: 6.0 speed, 45-160 damage. +5 to all ranges i believe, lol, and low ham cost.

days with no buffs or player cities or mounts, let alone vehicles. when we were greatly underestimated in pvp, but still could kick ass if we knew what we were doing... all that good stuff.

Yep, ive never dropped it either. Anyways, who out there has been a swordsman from the beginning? do you remember any of these things ive mentioned, and if so, do you remember anything else i forgot to? heh thanks for reading if youve gotten this far (quite the accomplishment with my type of writing )
