Swordsman Archive

I wanted some advice on what everyone did when they hit novice swordsman. What path did you guys take up the swordsman tree? I'm thinking first off to get twohanded head hit 2, because of the more powerful attack rather than a DOT, or spin or area. So what trees did others go up first and how effective was it?

i think most people went up techniques first. then offense

I agree

What i did was :

First: tech 1, 2

Second: defense 1, 2

Third: offense 1,2,3,4

Fourth: tech 3,4

Fifth: Defense 3,4

But that was just me =)
