Universal Conquest Wiki. Master Pikeman. Stances IV. Offensive Techniques IV. Defensive Techniques IV. Support IV. The real hole in your template is defence vs posture down and KD. How many times were you dizzied on the floor by the way? It's true that melee defence doesnt count on elders for example but your template its not adapted to elders, you'll have problems fighting a stun baton elder while with template 1 I won a fight with a stun baton elder and a protector by killing the protector while warcry, changing PSG and healing like crazy then I killed the elder.
With template 1 I can cure dizzy any time she stick it on me. Again, I dont want to suggest that your template is not good enough, I'm just explaining my templates and my choices. You can solo an elder with your template thats for sure! Accuracy never cap! Just take template 2 and add 1 carabineer box. Many people choose to have medic and they think this is a must.
In my opinion lower medic you can have is but you are the bravest swordsman among us! Yes there are different templates for fighting high end mobs but I wanted to select the best. Please tell me if I'm wrong!
Question: lets assume there is a contest 'who kills more elders in a buff session'. Would you use your template or. Anyway enjoy your pikes man! In DWB its pretty hard to feel the difference but let me tell you something, if you get template 2 you will notice it. I will modify the guide to reflect your observations ranged defense good only for low level mobs on vette. Don't tell me about belt or shirt because I already have them. I also included from the start a template for poor people, vnicula's standard template.
Search the bazaar, sometime you can buy them with 5k or 6k. Buy as many as you can. Start to put them on bracers, biceps, gloves. Don't tell me you don't have 1. Youll notice that is not so hard to find them and the prices are decent its like a loan, you dont pay 15mil at once but in time Don't be greedy, when you'll sell that looted LVA with max dam unsliced youll get your reward. This is to help all the good people who want to know which is the best Master Swordsman PvE template.
For all Swordsman veterans, I apologize for repeating here what you already know, but someone should put all this together and let us hope that we will see less 'PvE template-need advice' threads from now on. If you have time read this and add your knowledge to this thread , the community really need it. Please add only useful things directly related to this thread. Well, you'll be dissapointed to hear from the beginning that there is no best PvE template and I'm including any jedi template here but there are best templates for different situations.
There is also much to discuss about templates if you are looking for 'a little PvP' or 'not to die quickly in PvP' or 'I plan to go jedi' or 'is this good for FS grinding? If you have some of these questions in mind, this post is not for you.
You can read it but you'll not find the best answers here. I think yes! Because of the toughness, 2hlunge2 and intimidate2. I also tend to use 2hlunge2 when low level mobs are trying to teleport 88 meters away from me. I really dont want to argue more about having Master Brawler but I have to mention that there are opinions from vets that you can do pretty well without it.
Note that you can free up many points if you choose not to have it. However all the templates used here are Master Brawler. If you choose to stay away from elders while you are solo or if you wish to take a higher risk soloing them you don't need Medic.
Please check their posts to see where they cut to get the additional skill points for Medic. Your ranged defense won't help you much with SBD or admirals high end ranged but you'll resist much longer and eventually win when many low level ranged mobs gank you.. That is a nice thing to have. Ahh, you want all do you? All you need is either to prevent them OR to clear them.
No, you dont need FS skills, you can buy them speed, accuracy or obtain them from normal professions melee defense, ranged defense or just buy them all. What about Counterattack? Is it worth to take the Carabineer box? The best defensive in the game, period. Buy tapes. Read the templates, you'll understand that there is a situation when some Carabineer is a must.
That should be all. Please check the entire thread, there are other good examples of templates here. If you like this post and use my standard template please tell your friends that you use vnicula's standard template. Offer my winnings to 'storage' vendor at south of Coronet, Corellia.
Master Brawler is not a "Must". Protectors almost the same bit easier. Intimidate2 is only for a longer intimidate, intim1 with bioclothing works fine just have to do it a few extra times, which usually isnt a problem. A blinded swordsman cant hit shat. If someone can do or already has a comparative test between dodge and counterattack please put it here. Meanwhile I'll stick to my opinion that counterattack is better than dodge.
Carabineer also gives you ranged mitigation1 not only counterattack. Haven't had a PvE death bugs dont count in longer than I can remember. I routninely hunt Elders including ones with Stun Batons , Krayts including Ancient Canyons and every other high-end mob, with the exception of Dark Jedi NPCs, seeing as they have never dropped a single solitary loot item for me.
They just aren't needed. Master Brawler - Toughness is what we are after here, in addition to the extra speed and acc. Decent damage and speed, with acceptable range and HAM costs, this weapon will be your mainstay through until Novice Pikeman. Add a damage slice to this and you can top Max damage. The LVA has medium Armour piercing too, which means even heavily armoured opponents will still feel its bite.
This makes this weapon for low level pikeman inefficient and costly to use for specials. A better choice weapon to start Novice Pikeman with until you can progress to use the LVA efficiently. In addition certain opponents are vulnerable to electrical damage, which can increase your damage output. Slicing Weapons Slicing weapons is a personal choice, but is well advised for the pikeman.
Therefore the most useful to you is the speed slice. Unless you want a slow and painful climb up the tree with a huge amount of downtime, get a decent set of composite armour. See the buffs below. Buffs Buffs are a huge help to any melee character and the Pikeman is no exception. First you will need a full set of doctor buffs to assist with putting on your armour. It can typically last for up to 45 minutes, and if made properly 2 can be consumed at once before you are full. They are expensive but highly highly recommended.
Getting Doctor Buffs will typically add to your health and action primary and secondary stats. These are essential, in combination with the mind spice and foods if you want to use multiple special moves, and wear a full set of composite armour.
Power Ups Power ups are optional. Melee power ups can be dragged and dropped on your weapon, and last for swings with your weapon. For example. Once you have dragged and dropped the powerup onto your weapon, you can examine the effect by examining the weapon in question.
