What are the best skill boxes to get with the 17 points I have left after buying Novice Swordsman.

I have about 150,000 stored combat xp so can go up 2 instantly in the accuracy column but I'm not sure if thats the best column to buy with my limited skillpoints.

My other skills are MasterCreature Handler, scout 4-0-4-0, medic 0-0-0-4and Master Bio Engineer,I normally fight in a full suit of composite.

The Bio Engineer will go eventually for more sword skills but I can't quite bring myself to drop it just yet.

All suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Evey cloud has a silver lining, except mushroom clouds, they are lined with Iridium and Strontium-90!

17 points is more than enough- 18 would be better, because it lets you go Finesse 4 and Techniques 4.

Since you have your creatures to tank for you, bust out the mind bleeds. Use Finesses's Mind Hits to stack bleeds, and then use Technique's Head Hits to whittle down the mind.

You do not have TKA, which is a pity. Knockdown really helps with bleeds.

Each line of skill takes 14 skill points. 5+4+3+2 = 14

I wouldn't really recommend dabbling in Swordsman, but if you're intent on it I would get Finesse 4 for the bleeds. Your speed will by abysmal but at least you'll have accuracy and some high damage bleeds.
