I'm just going to go with


Master Swordsman


Master Brawler


TKA 0-0-0-4


Fencer 4-0-0-0 or 0-0-4-0


Pikeman 0-0-4-0


Scout 3-0-0-0


Medic 0-1-3-0



In the end my knockdown and dizzy defense will be awesome and that will take care of the ultimate tka technique, not to mention that i wear composite armor too...

its more like


pikeman - high damage, slow, innaccurate - bad defenses.


fencer - low damage, fast, accurate - high defenses


Tera kasi - high damage, fast, accurate - med / high defense ( not as high as fencer but high )


2h swordsman - high damage, medium high speed (depends on what u use), medium accuracy - low defense.



the solution? just take up fencer 4440 and do whatever you want for damage because the defense wont matter.

if you go 0040 fencer without the 4000 you should cancel your accont immediately.


4000 fencer is by far the best defensive tier in the game. get it without a doubt in fact 4440 is ideal...dodge/melee/ranged/dizzy/kd/intimidate defense.

Actually I think the Pistoleer debuff defense is higher than fencer.


TKA is not that great for PvP since a lot of people grab a tier for posture change defense. And without KD, TKA is a lot less dangerous.

Oh but it is . j/k. But what is a fact is that you will kill higher end mobs much, much easier with swordsman then you will with TKA. Why? because of bleeds, AR2 and hard hitting directed hampool hits kill pets/highend mobs in nothing flat. I have never heard of a TKA soloing a kryat, because knockdown will only get you so far . But it is pretty simple to see that if you want to attack higher end mobs Swordsman is the way to go, but if your after quick killing of many higher end mobs TKA is the way to go.

from all i know it's all about tactics between a tkm and a master swordsman. If u have a warcry hit before they get u then u win, u don't, well u lose. I am not master in either, but i do know that much just from seeing the 2 duel out. All and all i think they are both kick ass professions, not pet dependent like marksman

Ask the Spaz-ka's what they think of swordsmen when i go up against them trying to get a holocron. While they are doing 20 million specials, I just lightly tap the trooper twice and he goes down. They are still trying to finish their special macro after i have already looted the body.......LOL
