Hello, I'm a Master Architect that decided to pick up a weapon. After seeing a Battlemaster destroy the Tusken Fort using something called Dominate, I decided to try a sword.


I'm currently at the third box up in brawler tree (expert?) and working on Master. I was wondering what types of attacks I should be using as they all seem fairly good. I have several weapons, including a vibro-axe and a curved 2h sword.


Is there a certain order I should be doing my attacks or using a certain type of attack over and over?


I have the 2hsweep (which is a posture down), the headshot, and the health one that is a posture down.



Thanks for any tips, I didn't see any swordsman guides on the websites out there.

Ok bud, what you need to do is use that 2H curved sword. Get it sliced. Get maybe a 2nd in case it isn't sliced for attack. I think you want it sliced for attack because, if you get it sliced for speed, when you get there, you'll still only be limited to 1 attack per second. Use head hit 1, it works pretty nicely. I went for the techniques tree first... the idea of attacking faster and using massive damagehead hits rocks. then go for the offensive tree.

best bit of advice i can give, become a creature handler, get taming 1 and training one, and buy a gronda, 50% kinetic resist, 5500 ham, he can tank nyms for you till your a master.

Thanks for the advice, I was actually working on Creature Handler at the same time too. I think I'm going with Creature Handler / Medic / Swordsman. Luckily I already have Organic Chemistry IV because after Mastering Architect and Artisan, I'm tired of crafting.
