what are some of the fast ways of training swords skill past 100?

Normally, I just alternate between Earth Eles and Demons but gains seem
slow lately so I was wondering if there was some newer monsters might give
better gains. Anyone know?

Ogre Lords will get you all the way to 120 if you want.

Use a butcher knife and have lots of bandages handy.

Tsuki wolf works for me, even with +50 armous, I still get killed by
Ogre Lord from time to time, and every time I die, I had to run a long
way to find a healer(and you can never find them when you need them), I
also find Tsuki wolf gives me faster gain than Ogre Lord for my fencer.

+50 armor is low unless you are a mage or archer type looking for perks
like mana regeneration. You can get to 64 almost by accident and with
planning exceed 70.

Huh, PR is limited to 70, how can you exceed that? My main armor is way
past 70 because I can take several pieces off and still be at 70, but it
never shows to be more than 70 with it all on.

Crazy template on this character, Ninja Fencer without focus, anat and
healing but with chivary and medi instead, so the more LMC the better.
