It seems that the Blaster Fist fits with commando a lot more than the massassi knuckler(explosions : D), yet thats for Teras Kasi : | (Commando->Explosions Teras Kasi->silent but deadly :smileysurprised

The main argument in favor of the current arrangement seems to be that the blaster knucklers are more powerful, and since they are more powerful they would have to be placed higher up in one of the trees (unlike the Massassi knuckler, which could be granted at novice). Apparently the melee commandos would be upset if they couldn't use a knuckler for grinding right from the start.

I personally would much rather forgoe simplicity and convenience in favor of appropriateness, and give the Commandos the blaster knucklers at Tier 3 or so.

Personally, I don't think commandos should get melee weapons at all. But that's my biased opinion. I would be really pissed if TK got the HAR, so why should we get a weapon that would be more for them than us?

I think we commandos do need some melee skills, but something that can be used in melee range but with our own weapons equipped. Like a move where we use the butt of our guns to smack someone in the face....

Well there is a move now to hit with the butt of your gun, and TK imo has been strong enough for much longer than we, commandos (real commandos) deserve it all lol

Why should we TKA be pissed? We still get 2 new weapons which are way more powerful than the Massassi Knuckler.

We have an unarmed pre-req...Do TK's have an Acid Pre-req? It makes sense for us to get a Melee weapon because our Pre-Reqs are HALF Melee...We are a Melee/Ranged hybrid profession...so why does giving us a Melee weapon not make sense?

My originally goal was to get us a "Commando Knife" to use with our unarmed skills...the Knucklers are as close as I could get...

Would of been better if we had a weapon like the Protoss Zealot hand blade, but a little shorter, and made out of metal.

I'm guessing (as it seems Garvin confirmed) that the knucklers are supposed to be our Steven Siegal Combat-knife-esque thing.
