Center of being increases the chance for one of your passive defense skills to fire. For instance, while CoB is on, you'll dodge, evade, counterattack, etc much more often. However, CoB is currently not working for TKAs. Expect it to be fixed shortly though.

So the devs have acknowledged that it isn't working and it may be hotfixed? Or shortly as in 'maybe' the next publish?

Good question !

WhoOa Cielago the TK MAster?! when did that happen?! guess we wont see that booty shake no more huH?! this is Needa btw mwahaha

What exactly is Center of Being?

For those of you wondering the use of CoB, I have one example I would like to post.

I am at Fort Tusken alot, it is my favorite place to level. Now I am TKM and I can get aggroed by 3-6 tuskens and hit CoB and get hit by one of the tuskensevery time they all swing. The last time I tried this and was actually seeing how much they missed, I had 4 tuskens on me. Out of all of them hitting 3 consecutive rounds at me, I had been hit 2 times. That is 2 hits on me from 12 swings, some people say it is not working but use it at Fort Tusken when you run in totank an entire room and see if you dont notice a difference.

I'm glad you had a good experience, but when you're testing something like that, it's generally better if you get a larger data set. Test, say 50 swings against you without CoB vs 50 swings against you with CoB.

The problem with basing your conclusion off of a 12 swing data set is that you could just be experiencing some kind of statistical anomoly. Maybe they all just happened to miss a couple times. With larger data sets, it becomes less and less likely that variations in the results are due to chance alone.

At any rate, I'm glad you posted the results you got. It's always good to get more people testing and posting.

Maybe i am mistaken, but i looked and at Polearms IV, you get half of the center of being mods that the other proffesions get. Something like they get +2, and pikeman get +1. And after further checking, they dont seem to get anymore anywhere else. Am I making a mistake, or is a profession that already has many problems that you cant see just getting one more clearly visible disadvantage?

In the end we have +30 duration, same as TKA. Swordsmen and fencers have +31. /shrug

master pikeman

don't doubt the power of CoB at master Pikeman. I am not a pikeman but i dueled a master Pikeman and he said he never use CoB. Well, i told him to turn it on and duel. guess what, he blocks as much as I dodge. some guys was watching us duel and he said it was like an entire kung fu movie, lol

Right, we block more often. But when you dodge you take no damage, when we block we still take damage.
