Maybe Fencer new stance is multiply crit dmg
you will miss your glad band if so 
uhh noâŚIn that case Sissel is better.
Whatâs the point of multiplying crit damage if you have low crit rate?
DPS meter reveals a lot.
Iâm a sw2-> pelt -> cata evasion build
I get rank 1 and rank 2 just by auto attacking and tanking/guarding lol with archers and wizards in my team during the Sialluai mission.
No wonder the boss dies slow.
so 30% buff was not enough? i plan to make swordman class

Depressing. Its nigh impossible now to get more than 5-6 zombies to attack a single enemy. What is worse is that when I mob enemies for my zombies, they sometimes pick a few to just completely ignore. The only way I can get them to attack that one enemy is to run a couple of screens from an enemy then return or wait till the 5-6 zombies killing that other enemy finishes with that and moves on to the one my 15 other zombies are just ignoring.
I had a great combo going with Revive, Mackangdal, and Damballa where I can use revive then mackangdal to hold off the damage and splode my zombies with damballa twice. After that, Mackangdal will fade and my zombies die and gets revived and I can mass heal them. Now, They immediately just die ignoring both revive and mackangdal -_-
I did get buffs with blessing and my hex now working regardless of how mobbed the enemies get by the zombies but now, it doesnât really matter because I would rather have 20 zombies murdering 1 d00d at 30% less damage rather than have 5-6 zombies murdering 1 d00d at 30% more damage.
Im just so close to quitting ToS cuz of this.
RIP my zombie army I even recorded a video to compare the damage before and after the 3x more zombie damage buff BUT IT NEVER CAME! T_T Post patch Zombie AI
Edit: Oh shiz I didnt realize this was the swordsman part!
Sadhu is still a buggy mess. nothing changed. stay away from this class. Level 224 here.

As for dps ranking im always 1st yesterday
Hmm i just got my first gladiator band and also upgraded my kunai from 0 to 40% enhancement
lemme test later after reset see if a strong archer can steal the spotâŚ
Results are via siaulai missions btw
Too bad there isnât a before and after comparison between the patches.
The 30% str buff was not enough for swordies overall, but it was enough to finally pick up my hoplite and see a difference lol.
Close your provoke while testing and let us know.
Same results i still stay 1st i got second once though because i got smacked by the golem and my bunshins got bugged when i used kunai the one who took the 1st rank that time was a QS Cannon
About provoke i had it on but mine stays at lvl 5 so that i wont produce more aggro over a tank if one is present that is,so far its working i take the aggro when im the only sword in my party but if a tank is present and just uses C and doesnt hit the boss i take the initiative to turn off my provoke to make sure he gets all the aggro
The damage is still the same. I donât feel it. 
I donât understand why they donât allow some attribute and skill levels to be adjusted. I should be able to choose if I want lvl 5 provoke or lvl 10 provoke, since I bought all of the provokes. :.
ask IMC , idk either lol.
DPS Meter?
Btw, whatâs the highest damage build output with 8 ranks for Swordsman? Would 3 Barb and 3 Doppel be the hardest hitting with few crowd control abilities (like stun)?
imo hoplite c3 doppel 1 dragoon c2 would be a bit better dps wise.
