How does Master Swordsman measure up to TKM? What advantages does one have over another or are they about even? Does one tank better than the other? Does one solo better than the other? Which one has better defense, knockdowns,offense, etc?

I would have to say a swordsman will outdamage a TKM hands down.
If they fought each other and the TKM used power boost, hmm, think the swordsman might still pull off another win (if he had armor on)

I dont get power boost... every time I've ever used it it's proven to be useless. which is why it's no longer in my skills bar.

Um, it's not that great but it is useful. I use it all the time, especially now after the CU. It used to give you at least 500 health/500 action before the CU, dunno abou tthe action now.. but you still do get the 500 hitpoints. And I dunno, being a TKM that kills so slow most of the time, all the extra HP's you can get is good heh.

i have only anotherquestion, and no answers for you.. sorry..
**i haven't played post cu yet**
are the differing damage types as important as they used to be, pre-CU? a little while ago i read a post that said a TKM could take down an AT-ST bare handed now, so i guess that isn't a Master Swordsman specialty any more.

TKM is the best tanker for absorbing damage
Master Swordsman is the best for dealing Damage

anyone? 2v1 as tkm even with the knuclklers of katarn I cant beat everyone 2 rooters for example would own you easily. Your using swords specials I assume. Melee vs Melee I find my 1179 damage ph is better the tk vs jedi knucklers of katarn rule.

Well, I've got Master TKM Master Swords, TKM for the inate defences, Swords for doing some Damage. Swordsman wins but if you already have a damage dealing side to your character TKM is great but once you've got that ranged weapon equipped you lose CoB which is the TKM's best friend.
