Read the TK board... they are crying about wanting another damage type...
What part of UNARMED don't they understand?? Their innate desire to be ub3r notwithstanding... what do they expect?? They are one of the most powerful profs in the game, as displayed by all the cookie-cutter TK's out there, they seem to PvE and PvP JUST FINE...
arrrgh...

Its because if you fight ANYONE with composite, 80% of the damage is reduces (minus PvP reduction and skill mods) And by the way, there are plenty of people on this board begging for a stun weapon. Ive at least seen 5 threads about it. and heat damage is pretty much worthless towards composite also..

And those cry babies asking for Stun DO NOT represent all of us......and from what I have seen are just FOTM people, not the "regulars".

maybe they want to be like Liu Kang from Mortal Kombat... shooting fireballs from their hands... or like Sub-Zero throwing ice...
if they want magic, try EQ... they can even use their same Station signon!!

IMO the only reason TK's want a different damage type is that having one damage type is just plan boring. At Master the only weapon you will ever use is a damaged sliced VK. It is just so boring.
I am dropping TK for that reason and picking up Carbs. As a doc/carb will I be better at soloing mobs? NO. Will I be better in PvP? It's a toss up. I like the support role and I think Carbs will be better for that.
Why am I doing it? It just seems like more fun. Having to pick your weapon based on your read of your opponent just seems like more of a challenge.

Being restricted to one damage type would be fine if there weren't things in the game that are 100% immune to specific types... making a TKA 100% useless against that particular mob. No one should ever be completely useless.
Funny thing is, when I used to be a carbineer (for months and months after release), when I ran into those nightsisters who are only not 100% resistant to kinetic and blast, I felt pretty screwed.
To me, the limitation of damage type isn't really the problem, it's that a lot of things shouldn't be 100% immune to such things. They should have other, more plausible defenses.
