Swordsman Archive

I recently bought a ton of tatooine sunburn and some neutron pixie. I was able to get my stamina at least to 1.8k and even up to over 5k at times as well as my strength while running around drinkingthe sunburn. When i used the pixie i could double my health and boost other stats. I was unstoppable, my action regenerated way to fast for me to even use it. I solo'd a rouge fambaa (difficulty 37) using head hit 3, I had to adhesive mesh him once and rest my mind but I did kill him. Then i switched to power hammer to by pass his armor and he went down faster. I'm only 0301 in swordsman. i think if you load up on tatooine sunburn or other food / drinks / spices you can negate ham costs on the weapons. Of course it gets costly butyou beat so much ass. i was taking regular fambaa's down, giant peko pekos, ikopi stags. It was hilarious. I can't image what I will be like as a master swordsman. Of course I had to rest when the spices dropped, but it wasn't a big deal.

just a refernce for anyone who hasn't fought a fambaa, a giant baz nitch is difficulty 35 and has no armor, fambaa is 37 with ar1

Carefull about factories and food, they don't mix that well. All food will come out in quantity of 1 instead of the normal 4-12.

Chef's can experiment on the quality of the buff, the duration of the buff and the quantity of the buff. I've taken up Chef while I work my way up the Swordsman chain. I've made certain dishes at 12 quantity.

Anyways, food/drink can help quite a bit and hopefully soon they will get a little bump as well. BTW the new 75% damage nerf means that food/drink will have an even bigger impact along with stimpacks/spice.

have fun out there.

I wish chefs could make large stacks, like 100.

They have some decent foods, including willpower buffs, but you can only get them in piles of like 5, so they take up a crapload of inventory space and you can't just have 1 hotkey to keep you covered.

It's a good tip, I think a lot of people don't know about the Sunburn, but chef buffs are such a pain to keep applying.

Chefs can make factory crates of things. A good friend of mine is a chef and we've made crates of bofa treats before with my food/chem factory. Once she gets Mixology II, I'm going to have her mass produce sunburns in crates so i can just carry the crate and pop one out when i need it. I do this with Stim D's currently, carry the volume 5 crate with 50 Stim D's with 32 charges each and just pop a few off into my inventory as needed.

Aye crates are the way to go, I currently carry crates of adhesive mesh around, buying a food factory probably today for stims / sunburn and other foods. I think spice is done in the same factory.
