Swordsman has high powered blast and kinetic attacks, which are really just as good or better than stun, since neither Kinetic nor Blast are protected against by PSGs. Also, blast is great for killing turrets and ATST.

Mitigation 1 only drops the max damage a little. You won't notice it except when being attacked by weapons with alarge mix/max damage range (like a 2h Curved Sword).
Head Hit 3 gives you 1.4 times the dps than a normal hit, plus it targets the mind pool. It multiples damage by 3.5x, but delays you by 2.5x. This is the strongest swordsman attack.
I'd say, with all your existing defenses, head hit three will help you more in PvP.
FYI (stolen from here):

Well, what one is better (x x 3 x or x 3 x x )
Or if you have a better suggestion....
My template is for PvP.
Right now it looks like Master Rifleman, 4-4-0-0 Fencer (for uber defenses), 0-0-4-0 Pistoleer (again, defenses), Novice Medic (for a quick heal), and finally I have 46 points left to use on whatever....any feedback would be nice...
(please don't flame... if you see something you would improve on, just let me know)

If you want to be good with swordsman dont dabble in it, you have to master.
I'd recommend putting your extra points into better defensive abilities.

yea but it has the Blast weapon (Power Hammer) which isn't 0% resist but it's not 80% kin either. Also don't forget your constantly hitting their mind pool.
