Please indicate low - medium - high for the following, as you *want* to see Pikeman in the future.



For example:


Damage: High

Defenses: Medium

Speed: Low

Accuracy: Low

Special: Crowd Control


Please don't discuss or rate other peoples answers in this thread, as it makes it harder for me to tally the results. Also please keep balance in mind, we can't have everything.


Thanks!

I am going to do this on a scale of 1 to 10....1 being low and 10 high.....since i am having trouble schoosing between three ruff options



For Gunman-

Damage: High, but focused on area attacks area attacks

for single target medium/high

Defenses: High

Speed: Medium

Accuracy: Low for multiple targets

medium for single targets

Special: Crowd Control/Tanking


What I am thinking more specificly


Out of 20 pts


Damage:9 Area Attack damage

for single target mor like 7

Defenses: 6

Speed: 3

Accuracy: 3

for single target more like 5

Special: Crowd Control/tanking



My vision for TKAs....

This just seems like one big potential nerf!!

Leave us as we are!! About the only thing wrong is our defences are too low, which results in us borrowing some from other professions.

Also (maybe) that our accuracy needs increasing (10 points). Although personally the accuracy issue has only ever highlighted itself in PvP and with good defences that hasn't even been much of an issue.

Damage: High area, medium single
Defenses: Medium/High (higher melee/ranged/toughness, medium vs states)
Speed: Low (Medium at master)
Accuracy: Low (Medium at master)
Special: Crowd Control and maybe a new master special with some area effect, with a tad bit of range, i know we talked about a pushback/shockwave type of move.


sidenote: I think one our biggest problems atm is game mechanics only allow stun damage to be the big victor, on the other hand DoTs which we do get but not standard are a work around for that, the only problem is not everyone can get these nice weapons that some people have.

No, just someone who loves being pike, has been since European launch and doesn't to lose what good we have.

I have no problem in PvE and do ok in PvP. The only difference between me and a pure pikeman is I picked up some skill tapes and some defences from other professions (I do not use DoT lances or switch to other profession's weapons). Fix those few things, so that we get them from our tree and we are fine.

Damage: High
Defenses: Medium
Speed: Low
Accuracy: Medium
Special: Crowd Control

Cant understand the people who want high damage, low speed and low accuracy. Your high damage will be useless and u will be out damaged by any other class because of the high miss rate. And i think Crowd Control for a brawler profession implies tanking.

Damage: Medium

Defenses: High (low toughness, historically when over run we die quickly!!!)

Speed: Staffs & Lance, should be high. LVA & VL, medium.

Accuracy: Staffs & Lance, should be high. LVA & VL medium to low.

Special: AoE

Why do people want low speed? We aren't slow at the moment, so why nerf it? Even Rancors only take seconds to kill, when grouped we'd get one hit (if we were luck) before the thing is dead!!!!

Tanking goes with high defences, so can't see how that's a special.

Please don't let us wake up one morning to a profession we've been playing for months to be something boring.

Damage: High (we need to do more damage, not necessarily by higher damage weapons, but i'd really like to see an increase in AP, i.e LVA and Energy Lance AP3 and VL AP2)


Defense: High (toughness is a joke as it is)


Accurracy: Low


Speed: Low


Special: Low


If these things would be fixed, and with the armorholes gone in pub 8 - pikeman would not be the laughing stock of the game anymore.

with my current experience as a pikeman heres my idea.


damage: HIGH (big stick = big hurt)


defense:MEDIUM (as in toughness, like +60 toughness or something like that)


speed: LOW (pikes are big they should be slow but not saying we need to take away some of our speed)


accuracy: HIGH ( we should be slow but we should be fairly accurate as well i would like to see and extra +30 maybe, but thats aiming high)


Special: Crowd Controler ( i like the idea of our area KD on a shorter timer, but thats more than likely not going to happen)


and maybe take out the posture change from polearmhit3 and replace it with intimidate or dizzy or something, its pointless to KD em if theyre just gonna get back up cause you were spamming polearmhit3.
