whatever posessed me to become a TKA was a retard.


I should've just become a commando, then I too could have an automatic kill button.


PVP is so pointless when it just comes down to who has the most commandos and how fast they can burn everyone. . .It's actually pretty funny when I instantly die (due to lag, partially), then look up to see that silly kneeling man w/ the lines comming out of his back. Oh yea, got lit on fire again. . .


I guess I should just get 3x layered flame retardant composite, but I suppose that would only delay the inevitable, since I can't meditate flame away, and there is no cure. . .


If they nerfed dizzy knockdown, why not nerf Insta fire kill?



<look out, the commandos are gonna flame me!>

There's a cure. It's called Water

yes, if you have no armor then its your own stupidity that gets you killed.


theres 2 ways to get rid of the fire dot: run to water or buy chef food called FLAMEOUT (gee, hint hint)

nope, I have armor, but it's kenetic armor. Commandos are the only thing that uses fire, so . . .I got kenetic.


Anyway, I'm not master yet, and even if I was and I got him on his back, I'm still gonna **edit**in die

oh, and in regard to running to water, better hope it's within 10 meters or so, cuz that's about how far I'm gonna make it. . .

Insta-kill button, you mean like that KD+Dizzy macro I set up once I reached TKA 0/1/1/0? Or the 2 - 3k hits with almost no delay that I'll be able to deal out at MTK?


Look, the fact is that if you take a commando and TKA at any equivalent level and equivalent skill, the best outcome the commando can hope for is to die and watch the flames incap you. In fact, if anything, the TKA has the upper hand, if we miss once (which happens pretty frequently until master) that's it for us. If you land a KD+Dizzy before we can get off a special, we're finished.

"Commandos are the only thing that uses fire"


thank you, keep proving your ignorance.


BH has fire attack. Flamethrower is HEAT damage, the FWG5 pistol (very popular) is HEAT.


If you only have kinetic armor then you will get owned by ANY elite ranged proffession regardless.


whine on.

Ever fought a commando that missed their first special? (which happens often)...who won? How many hits can a TKA get in before the delay a commando faces ticks away...how much damage can be done...KD will add to that delay as well...


And I hate to even bring this up...but there is something called strategy...if you are going to face a Commando there is a very good chance you going to get burned...have you heard the term "Know thine enemy?" You know our main weakness is the same as yours...Ranged kiters kill us...DABBLE DABBLE DABBLE...get some ranged skills, don't even need master in a ranged profession...that way when you face a commando, you can fall back on those skills to win the fight...don't expect your main profession to be better then every other profession...I'm sorry...in a face to face 16m fight between a Commando and TKA, the advantage typically goes to a Commando...that's the way it is, and that's the way it should be...Commando's cost more skill pts then TKA so we should get some type of advantage...winning or losing this type of battle in the end goes to the person who most wisely dabbled their remaining skill points...


This is not a flame to your post...this is just the way it is and the way it should be if you look at the bigger picture...You post is like a Commando going out sayingthey should have goneBounty Huntersince they can kite us to death with their ranged shots and beat us everytime...sounds silly, doesn't it...

Actually your armor only really needs to have some flame resist, doesn't need to be overly special, unless you want to protect yourself against FWG5's and BH heat attacks, then a good heat resist would help alot. If you have decent heat resist and buffs then a commando can not one shot kill you and you can survive the burn without needing water.
