Master Heavy Sword
Master Brawler
TKA 4-0-0-1
Scout 3-0-4-0
Marksman 0-0-4-0
Carbineer 0-0-3-0
Mainly going to be used for PVE, with a bit of casual PVP thrown on the side. I make most of my money through harvesting, and can't stand to have low TN, hence the Scout lines. The Carbineer line was in order to get Ranged Mitigation 2. TKA is obvious.
Is Ranged Mitigation worth it? Or would I be better off dropping it and picking up more defence lines from the melee profs?
If Ranged Mitigation is worth it, would I be better off taking it in either Rifleman (for added block) or Pistoleer (for added state defenses)?
Will Block and Dodge work whilst I am using a 2H weapon?
Thanks in advance

block and dodge dont work while holding a 2h weapon, only counterattack.
not bad for PvE, but i'd just drop carbs alltogether and pick up medic. healing is better than range mitigation IMO

Counterattack was hit by the def stacking nerf wasn't it? So the max is now 125 correct?

I agree with the first post... and correct on the counterattack cap.

Ok, replace the Marksman and Carb skills with Novice Medic (can I use stim B's at this level?) and spend what's left on defences:
What about this:
MHS
Novice Medic
Scout 3-0-2-0
MB
TKA 4-0-0-4
Fencer 3-0-4-0
I lose the ranged mitigation and some harvesting ability but gain a LOT of defence.
Melee def capped
Ranged at 119
Counterattack 110
Decent state defences
How does this look? Anyone have stats on how much a difference losing 15 Creature Harvesting is?
