Swordsman Archive

Been having a great time as a swordsman but as time has passed ive noticed that i rarely use the skills in the defense or offensive skill trees. Dont really know why to be quite honest but i just dont like AE'n mobs. Tired it and didnt like it. I have yet to see the sweep line of moves actually change a mobs posture. SO what i did was i talked to tka's and swordsman and got many points of views and read both tka boards and swordsman boards to educate myself on the pros and cons of both professions and i think ive come up with a good mix for myself and i wanted to share it.

Heres my idea of a cool melee.....

-In Swordsman i kept lvl 4 tech for the big mind bleed and lvl 4 finesse for the big mind hit ( which i still do 3k+ hits w/o being a master swordsman)

-In TKA i went withthe precision striking tree for the defense and the cool part is i actually doubledmy melee/ranged defenses from what i had as a master swordsman and then i went with the meditate tree for the powerboostability which is a self buff (totally awesome ability)and the force of will ability which allows me to instantly recover from being incapped (or so they say). Going with meditate tree allowed me to surrender cure poison/disease from doctorand i used those points to get knockdown and dizzy.

Bottom Line

-I can mind bleed and mind hit for 3k+/hit (using powerhammer)

-I can stun, dizzy, blind, intim, warcy mobs

-I can knockdown

-I can leg hit(action), body hit(health), mind hit(unarmed)

-I can cure bleed, wound, poison/disease using meditate

-I can self buff using powerboost

-I can recover from being incapped using force of will

***Now i know i dont get to use the benefits of what you get from master title but after doing it I dont miss it at all!!

Looks like a good combo. A question I have for you do you have anything to help with ranged attacks something to help if you are being kitted by suppression fire or strafe or any of the other posture change shots?

Hmmm. An interesting combination. Thanks, maybe I'll check it out. How good is the self-buff?

man ive been itchin to post my new template but didnt wanna give it away.

smuggler 0-0-4-0 (dirty fighting)

master swordsman

teras kasi artist 4-0-0-2(meditation and precision)

medic 4-1-4-0

scout 2-0-0-0

and heres what i can do:

*knock down my kiting opponent with low blow

*use mind bleed 2 with a power hammer

*mind hit 3 at least once, a lota times twice

*back off, use panic shot to delay him for TEN SECONDS, so he cannot attack me, and the bleed is still goin

*buff my self with power boost (its half your mind added to all your ham, so i have 900/900/900 turns into 1350/1350/1350, with no real downtime, and it can be done over and over again.)

*dont need doctor since i can heal everything with meditation

*use force of will to get up after like five seconds of incap

*run faster than default up hills

*heal myself in a couple of stims, 2 to 3 if im buffed

*and the defense i get from the precision line is very help full, both in pvp and pve

if your thinking of copying please dont do it on tarquinas, as i love kickin ass with my own template.
