i have some bad news for TKM's. we are not uber anymore, we can be beaten by swordsman, easily... fencers without to much work and dotting pikeman might not kill us in the duel, but we'll die from the poison/disease/fire.
and as a rifleman i have to say i only lose when i am too drunk to look at my monitor when i am dueling.
bottom line tkm has been effectively nuetered. and after the CB we are getting knocked down even further. so if you are smart.. drop it now and get swordsman so you can solo any NS you find.
I hope someone will argue with me, cause I think I am right, and I hope I am not.
get syth. steak.. get a 200+ damage VK and kd,intimidate,dizzy,stun and some others i might of left out and ull own a master fencer or swordsman pretty easly

I have had sword fencer and TKM. Right now I tend to favor my Fencer doc. You just have to prepare well against a tkm. I usually have entertainer buffs with brandy and keep a muon handy. I pop a picatta pie and a thak and begin laying states with a mind dot weap. If he is a doc I just lay the states and start wacking away with my stun baton hit 3. A lot of people used to use scatter hit even after they fixed it which is complete junk. You will own any Fencer that relies on that. Its weak. However when I use hit 3 within 5 minutes its pretty much over.
If you do not prepare and you do not defend against the knockdown dizzy, you are toast eventually as the tkm will keep you on your back and peck away at your mind. I have seen a lot of TKM's take Fencers, but again I think it boils down to knowing your professions well. Rarely does everyone have all the preparations done perfectly and this is where I think you see people from both sides getting defeated rather easily
Sword is another issue.. I have not had any trouble with swordsmen. States are the key to defeating them. They cant hit you if they are blinded and you are taking a pie. COB dodge rocks against them. Who knows maybe that will change with the FS stuff..
Don't get me wrong I really like TKM, I just don't think you will beat a well prepared fencer very often. If you have a strategy to counter the above please share it..
