Thread: Master TKA or Master Fencer?f
Server: Shadowfire
Well honestly you can no longer in publish 7 combine tka defence with fencer defences or mods. So thats kinda out of the window when publish 7 rolls around. But tka medation will work as normal so I am happy to have the ablity to use that. Although, if your looking for pvp strenght to be honest you might as well join the bandwagon of TKA's the averge damage output is around 400 to 500 damage, alot of it seams to get though armor very easly. Secondly, they are just about as tough or slightly tougher then a fencer, I noticed that tka's can take alot of damage.
As for fencer were good at avoiding damage, but we nibble bite our oppents to death, its very diffcult to incap in pvp as a fencer. As it takes us 2-4 times the moves to do it, an or we are forced to use weapons that kill us far faster then normal. I still enjoy the heavy mind costs assoicated to the stun baton, an the massive costs assoicated to the gaffi stick. They make pvp quite enjoyible. But honestly I am a vibroblade fan, I use it mainly cuase its cheap on ham, an has pen 1. Even though the damage output is clearly massivly nerfed in pvp.
tkas are limited to kinetic, so they could take awhile to kill someone even if they have them on the ground dizzy/kd'ed, so if you have a really heavily armored target, i at least have the option of switching to the stun baton. if you mastered just one..you may not.
another issue is the accuracy..tkas are the most accurate class of all classes, they have something like +210 accuracy, whereas rifleman next up have +160 accuracy. so its nice being able to hit everyone..fencers get like 145 or so.
so they both have ups and downs
Yes!
While I will admit, my character was never built for PVP, I do have a lot of fun with it hunting the tough planets alone or with friends. I can tank like nobody's business and man.... TKM..... wow! just.... wow! That's all I can say. I mastered it last weekend and this week has been one of the most fun weeks I've had since launch. I can equip my VB, hit CoB and tank the biggest beasts in the game for my buds, or I can equip my VKs go apesh*t dealing out death to Rancors and Nightsisters like there's no tomorrow. The flexibilty is awesome. I love what my character has become.
As for PVP, one would do well to listen to Falric/Eva. His/Her reputation reaches far and wide on our server. Much respect there.
when i first read this i thought...... you cant kill nightsisters. then i remember. you can. hahahaha. TKM is great.
best scenario.... jedi adept rifleman laying prone 15k ham, unarmedhit3. dead in one hit. TKM is far better than fencer in my opinion plus meditation is really really nice.

Thank you for the complement I take pride in my abilities an skill. Even though I talk smack I back it up with a good fight. I play smart, with guarilla tactics in mind, using all terrain to my advantage an not getting caught up in situtations were I am vurnible. ....
Again, I been testing, mastering most melee classes as well as ranged classes to learn what they can do an such. But by far I find fencer to be the most challanging an the most tactical minded classes in the game. They arn't a class for the meek, they are a class for the bold an quickwitted. Although, our damage output an weapon choices are seriously under-par I strive to do my best to inform devs an community of my knowledge. Anyhow I wouldn't be anything esle but a fencer in this game, its just to much fun watching ranged classes mock you, but only to HATE you when you take'm out. ^-^
I hope one day I can be a tester for products like these games. I honestly enjoy systamticly riping apart the games while playing them it to find the advantages, an quirks that others havent noticed. I did discover something in game a while back ago. About something on repairing the HONOR BLADE to full condition in the game.. But I need to do more research into this in game an offline. An what ever happened to the Story Teller class, I heard alot of rumors about this but nothing comfriming it. *shurgs* People in game are a great resorce of information as well as outside of game in chat forms. I pay attention to much sometimes.
