Thread: Master Brawler How Much Does It Help TKM?
Shhhhh Shuttup lol keep it quiet or our Ranged friends might notice ![]()

Yes dont get the melee professions nerfed by posting your conquests.
However, lunge 2, intimedate 2 and then Warcry 2 are all great. As far as the comment on "we already have a kd" well, this kd is at a range of 20m. is your kd able to reach that far?
Many a times i have been kitted by some arrogant BH spamming eyeshot when i Burst Run and close the gap to 20m and kit lunge 2 to see him drop then follow up with WarCry 2 (two times as the first usually fails) and then place my bleeds and spam my best hit on him. I am a master pikeman and I have two reinforced staffs with two seperate DOTs, one is a burn dot on the mind pool, the other is a poison on the mind pool. Not action, but still helps. Really freaks ppl out when they see the burn icon on them.
But, lunge 2 and warcry 2 are awesome together. Also, in a long protracted fight vs another melee profession I will put an Intimedate on them, especially if it is a TKM as they rely completely on damage from hits as they have no bleeds.
just got my master brawler last night after dropping trickshot 2 days ago. Finally fell to the dark side of going more or less full melee. Im sure am going to have alot of problems in PvP but what the hell.
Cant wait to test out the new stuff.
I think what is meant by a seperate time is that you have the chance to KD an npctarget twice. For example, if you kd and dizzy a target, they now attempt to get up. sometimes they can be successful on the 2nd or even on the firstattempt andbecause its within the 40sec timer, you cant kd them again. thats where lunge2 comes in to put them back on the floor while dizzy lasts. I think its more like a lifesaver/2nd chance. Not sure first hand of course and will need ot test this out mylsef.

UA Lunge II and KD are also on seperate timers.
Oops, that is incorrect. KD is one timer, 30 seconds I believe, regardless of whether UA Lunge II or UA KD sets it off. My bad.

Yes, that is what I was trying to say. If My UA Lunge II fails to KD I can still use UA KD to attempt it within the 30 second timer with a chance of success. If I wasn't a Master Brawler and my UA KD failed I would have no 'second chance' at a KD within the 30 second timer. Please do test this.
Been thinking a lot lately that should I get master brawler or stick on doc. Intimidate 2 can "replace" ubese but it have to land (ubese+intimidate yay), lunge2 well it's good for pvp not that much pve (if mobs starts to kite then just taunt and they'll pause for a sec to catch up). Warcry2... well this is absolutely best skill along minor +5% to ua toughness.
Master brawler helps a ton if you go against swg's hardest creatures and npc's but otherwise it isn't mandatory skill to have for tkm. If you want pure meleeist then I'd suggest taking it, I'll have to try it myself someday soon.
