What are the prereq's for Swordsman?


If they overlap perfectly with fencer, I can have 2 tree's free to put in sword.. if not then I can pick up 1 tree in sword.
If you ahve master brawler, you have opened the door to any melee profession you want. If you're only doubling up on fencer/swordsman, you could even drop to Brawler 4440 and get another 20 skill points in to put in to swordsman. You would have to consider the trade offs though as the master brawler box has some generous skill mods in it.

Doo I think ranged might be better for you too, pike is good for helping in pve, but you will take some damage, and without 2800+ health that damage comes quick. pistoleer has some similar benefits (intimidateshot/disarm/stopping) SL is always good for group power, smuggler has some good opponent modifiying specials too :) maybe a combo of pistols/SL or pistol/smug

if you are going to stay melee doo, you should build up to lvl 80, because if you get in a group going after elite stuff, you are going to be dropping like rock

from what I have seen, I'd go with rifleman...they are the biggest dmg dealing hitter from afar...they are taking down high ranking jedi in 3 shots, plus with their cover in pve they aren't being seen...

yeah the fencer dot is not amazing :( blind is very good tho and so is lunge. id say mix it up with heavy sword and maybe consider "sword flurry" (it says it is a strong attack with a defensive bonus).

for fencer what swords are strong? oh and how did "Sai Sun" convert? im very interested to know
I'll double check but I think Sai-Sun's conversion did not do it justice. It was a great weapon pre-CU. I think it it now they typical conversion crap of 175 that most of my stuff is getting.
