Howdy all.
I'm still new at being a H. Swordsman 0-1-0-1 currently. I'm pondering my next skill box. Should I get Spin Attack2 or Area Attack 1. I've become a big fan of Spin Attack1 while doing Quenker and Huurton missions and I'm wondering if I should get Area Attack for the posture change or get Spin Attack for the more damage.
Any thoughts opinions comments greatly appreciated.

I would say spin. I lvled all the boxes before I started the area attack line. Made master in no time

I would go with Spin 2, the extra damage it does will help you more thanthe posture down effect on Area attack 1.

I am just getting going on swordsman, but i took spin attack 2, only cause with being able to chew through lairs of torts (even with multiple bulls) with spin attack 1 i can only imagine how fast the xp will flow when i start throwing out spin2

Put on the 80% comp and went and used the spin to win move through the fort, with enough buffs and blow you can take 6-8 tuskens at once and they can range from 2k-4k a piece.

One more bit of advice...
Enraged rancor lairs near the sarlacc pit on Dathomir. Go up close to a group of 3-4 and the fight window will pop open and close because they use area attacks and hit each other, thus start fighting... run in, warcry, COB, and then Area Attack 3. When I reached 4404 Swordsmen and I did that (while getting scout xp for my friend) I peaked @ 900k in about an hour and 1/2. I'm waiting to use that XP once I drop merchant
