Just mastered about.... 15-20 mins ago I'd say.
What I'm wondering.... what now? I have a 4.1 speed Power Hammer, and a 1.8 Speed Two Handed Sword, which should I use at master? How would I go about speed capping? What kinda statss should I look for on a Power Hammer now? (Should I bother with a Two Handed Sword at all still, or solely use Power Hammers?)
Also.... without being speed capped, (75 speed right now total.) should I use Area 3 or Spin 2?
Thanks for the help! So far, Swordsman is seeming pretty interesting... (Area Dizzy + Posture Down.... /drool)

congratz 
welcome to the family /curtsey
welcome to the family /curtseyDepends entirely on what you're fighting as to what weapon you use... you might want to get yourself a Scythe as these are generally better in terms of dps than a 2hand curved sword or a cleaver.. use the damage per second calculator attached to Goreki's Swordsman 101 stickied post at the top of this board to see what speed hammer you'll be able to hit once per second with, i'm not sure what it'd be at just 75 spd 
And as far as Area3/Spin2 - i'd go with Area3 as it has the Dizzy/Posturedown, spin doesn't as far as i remember.. but it's past my bedtime so i'm sleepy

Looks like I'd need a 1.5 PH to speed cap Area 3... I'm presuming that simply isn't possible, so it seems I'm gonna need more speed... how hard is speed capping, or just getting my speed higher then it is now?

No, a 1.5 spd PH isn't really viable.. best you'll get crafted speed wise is maybe 3.5 with a speed slice... so - Master Brawler gives you another +5 speed (as well as Intim2, Warcry2 better 2hand CoB), and FS Melee Speed (Combat Prowess xxx4) gives you another +12, putting you on 92 speed - cap is 95 so you'd only need another +3 from tapes to hit cap. That's the easy way to speedcap.. the hard way is to not have master brawler and try and buy/loot your +20 >_<
