Swordsman Archive

Hello, I'm currently a 2/4/4/4 Swordsman (So close to joining my kinas one ofthe rare ranks of a Master Swordsman!) And I was dueling my friend, a TKA with only 0/1/4/3 He beat me with unarmed Combo 2 quite easily, because I was not wearing my helmet and his combo hit my mind pool several times. There was a master Wookiee swordsman who told me I should migrate my stats. But, I am a Human, and he is a wookiee, I wear armor, and he does not. So I figured, although his advice may be good, it is not for me since we are different. I wanted to know how I should migrate my stats to be effective with my 70% ubese armor which weighs me down at about 150-250 on every sub stat. My current stats are;

Health:800

Strength:550

Constitution:500

Action:800

Quickness:550

Stamina:550

Mind:600

Focus:550

Willpower:500

The wookiee said I should max out my mind and willpower, but this would take alot of stats from my other stats which in my opinion, deal much more directly with the cost of my specials. I'm already paying about 150 on my health per swing with my power hammer, with even less stats it may go up to 200 health a swing.

I'd really appreciate any help/experiences with this, I feel the way I am now I can hold my own, and with buffs, I can solo Force Crystal Hunters quite easily. But like most serious minded swordsmen, I seek to perfect myself, How canI do this?

Thanks in ahead of time

How about:

900-400-400 / 900-550-400 / 800-550-500

These stats might look a little funny, but they will work good if you follow one rule:Never fight without Tatooine sunburns!

They are like a mini doctor buff,eliminating the healthdrain on the powerhammer. Now you will last much longer in a fight,before having to heal. The 550 quickness plus the 1550+ stamina from the sunburn will help sustain your action.

I made a macro that drinks one, pauses for the duration of the buff, then drinks another, like this:

/ui action toolbarSlot16;
/pause 363;
/ui action toolbarSlot17;
/pause 363;

...etc...

With this setup, you havetwo stacks of sunburn on your hotbar in the appropriate places, and start the macro. It drinks out of onestack, then the other, so you can replace it when it runs out.

Try it, it works!

who ever gets action incaped? drop the action to 750 the health to 900 and the mind to 850...550,450 for mind secondaries 600,500 for health..the rest for any acition secondaries

im a wookiee and here is what i did: 925 health-min-min/925 action-min-min/1100mind-max(650)-max(600)

i heal myself when unbuffed and my high mind lets me do this (i always incapp from mind when unbuffed)

when buffed i can last almost forever.

when going up against hard stuff: muon gold if mind is at risk, tatooine sunburn for most things (drink 2 at a time) and neutron pixie for most mobs under 12k ham.

for you, i would suggest getting a very high mind, since it is the hardest to buff

(if you have mind 600 then max mind when buffed is 1200)

(if you have 1000 mind then max mind when buffed is 2000)

Mind doubles when buffed, all other stats are add-ons, so if you have only 300 health, but you only fight buffed, you are ok.

I usually take Glucose plates to make up for mind, they buff it by about 500 or so, and like 300 to willpower.

I also think 550 is the highest a human can have on his secondaries. I usually fight buffed, about 75% of the time I fight buffed, so tatooine sunburns are never a huge requirement. I would still rather not make a character with low stats and high mind, simply because that would make me depend on buffs.

I try and keep my Health Action Mind all above 950, and manage my secondaries with foods or sparing use of specials
