Thread: pvp strategy
Well killing commandoes is like killing riflemen now. You can even lunge them to death if you feel the need.
BH, well I dont understand how a profession with no defense mods and only 2 melee defense can always avoid kd, it just baffles me to no end. But... they are killable in close range just like everyone else.
Carbineer.... I wish my kd was like their kd, but I like the carbineer quote " I bet I can kill myself faster than you can kill me " and its so true, I have been kited by them and laughed as they kept healing themselves while contsistently missing me or only kding me for minimal damage.
Pistoleer, tough opponents. If you let yourself be kited you will lose. If you engage upclose, you may lose, but thats always better than dying tired. Not that Im saying that you cant win. I have dueled a doc buffed muon'd pistoleer with stopping shot and he said I could not warcry, kd or intimidate him.. I said ok and still won but only because he didnt run away just stood there letting me mind hit him to incap. You must fight these on your terms never on theirs.
Swordsman...Better hope you incap him before he mind bleeds you.
Fencer...Better hope you incap him before he beats/bleeds you to death.
Pikemen...he better hope he incaps you before he incaps himself.
CH.. ignore the pets kill the commando..err I mean the ch, well you all know what I mean.
Combat Medics...you have 15 sec usually to kill them before you are toast. Eat muon run after them or incap trying.
Dont think I missed anything. Dont take this as gospel, but this is what I found to be true, and it shapes how I engage my targets, where I engage my targets and if I expect to win or not.
they usualy win becasuse they use warcry and intimidate on me
then my attacks arent as good as they look, considering that i can almost never knock you guys down.
i know a couple Master tka's that picked up 1 rifle skill that dizzys and then they use the carbine kd. catch up and whoop my butt.
besides once a tka is on top of you, u can cash in your chips because your finished.
thats just my 2 cp on tka "butt kicken'ness"
why would you switch to tka and why would you waste skillpoints on tka if your gonna shot anyway
Sounds like allot of people are Unprepaird. you dont just Duel somone and Cry .. Prepair your char for fighting ..
Geta 80% Acid Helmet ..61% 80% of all BH use a Acid gun .
Get some Armor realy Easy to get +50% resist to Everything ..
Shieldgenerator = even more armor ..
I have 600Str 700 Con as Minimum on my TKM so get a Good Advanced Composite BP . Just bought a standard one 54% to all got it 33% stat Sliced to 71% resist ..
Now the 71% + a Shield generator . yea almost 90% resist
Spend Time and Ton of Money to prepair. Just like Any other Sport in the World.
ThisGame Combine Skill- Char profesion and Equipment to Fight.. Nice combination if you ask me ..
Like yesterday I was in Ancor to PVP some people as a TKM I always Try to Runn inside small buildings. and 1 rifel 1 comando Followed me in they both died in less than 10 sec.. I had to listen to them for 2 houers whinning about TKA Need a Nearf . Guess they need to smarten up ... if you use rifel you need to be out in the Open . Dont follow a TKM into a small Room . =) badd idear
Yes and this is not a duel thing. So many people in SOOOO many games want to compare duel records for what class is best in the game. It's not about duels. It's about what happens in a good skirmish. Will that BH or Commando see you coming in that mass of fire from your side? If not, you have a very good chance of getting some fantastic kills.
I am a Teras Kasi Master, 0440 Doctor, and 0030 Smuggler.
I am part of a Strong PA that provides for my needs.
I go into PvP, Self-Buffed, at 3500+ Health and Action, and 1500 Mind. (Including PowerBoost)
I wear a full suit of Composite Armor (60% or better to all except Stun, which is at 4%)
I use Stimpack E's to self-heal for 1500+ per shot.
Being a Zabrak, I can use Equilibrium to heal my mind pool.
I set my Title to Apprentice Gunfighter.
I begin with Follow, PanicShot x3, LowBlow.
When at my target, I make sure that he is down (which he is, due to LowBlow)
If he is not down, I lead with a Lunge, and then based on his armor...
I use Spitting Rawl with Bare Hands if he is armored on his head...
Or HeadHit and Vibroknucklers if he has no helmet.
I use powerups on my vibroknucklers with -30 percent to mind cost.
The 'e' key is bound to /deathblow.
Alot of people tend to /tell me, saying it's BS that I show as an Apprentice Gunfighter.
) Obviously, the trick worked... and it just keeps working.
There's no better way to have someone run from you than to have a Teras Kasi Master flag over your head.
ABC - Intrepid Server
- Get a ranged weapon with KD or other CC.
- Jump them
- Fight melee classes
Because I'm rifle speced too I don't have that kitting problem all time. Many player tend to run toward me when i wield my rifle. When I then switch to tka it is many times to late for them ....
make sure you have a center of being macro.
foods you need/might want to try:
vasarian brandy - a must no matter who you are facing. take 2 drinks of this.
vagnerian canape - a nice buff to your secondary stats
thakitillo - you won't get knocked down nearly as much
air cake/pikatta pie - take some of this and you will be dodging a ton more. adds like 40%+ to your dodge
synthsteak - decreases around 40-50% of damage taken for around 35 attack
there are more but these are the ones I primarily use. what you have to do is mix and match and by trial and error see which ones work the best against which professions.
always make sure you have a PSG.
for basic tactics, I usually slap on intimidate/blind/dizzy and then go for the kd right away. Once they are knocked down you gotta wail away with either scatter hit, or sometimes if i find i'm hitting their health hard i go for the body hit. also if you have 1h dot weapons, apply some of those while they are kd'ed.
this is just basic stuff, hope i could help a bit.
