How I enjoy pikeman could be described as a mutation consistent of my playstyle and mood mixed into a soup of endless grinding for loot and content My tactics in combat depends on the situation I find myself in, but I usually try to keep an eye on my HAM costs. At the moment I am using Food(Ryshcate), Drinks(sunburns), Spice(muonGold) and PowerBoost(TKAskill). I suggest youestablish agood contact with a smuggler, a chef, a dancer/musician and a doctor in order tohave amore potent character.

Ok for me it sounds like you have to get a lot of Foot drinks spice enhancements armor and maybe also shield generators to stay well in a combat.
What i also get from your answer is you are looking for Holocrons ... not sure ... And u stack here with stupid loots
What i am not understand is the dancer/musican part... For what ? sure for the BF but what more ? Enhancing Mind ?

Keeping a eye on the Ham bar thats the point i wana specialy going into.
Do u feel that the special moves from Pikeman are strong enough compared to the Ham costs you get ? Do u feel any additional defense from the Tera Kasi skill while fighting as Pikeman ? What skills are u using in combats from the Master Brawler ? Are u switching between Pikeman/Tera Kasi while fighting ?

Ok to myself
I start as Pikeman at release date and i am still Pikeman. It takes me 7 Weeks until i reach the Pikeman Master and i was very disapointet about the combat ability which Pikeman has. And there starts the challenge for me. Instep of using all that drugs and foot i was looking for something that stays permanent on my char. SKILL. I did TKM, Novice Fencer and Novice Swordman and Master Brawler and i am working actually on the Fencer Footwork tree to get more defense. I also migratet my Ham stats to have more mind (actually 1000). One of my last things was a trie to strike as Pikeman a Force Crystal Hunter without anything special just with skill. I dont won but maybe with the Footwork defense skill from the Fencer i will do it.

If i am enhanced on all Ham stats from my Doctor friend i can enjoy the Pikeman very well.
Usally i am running in the middle of a enemys group and my first hit is the polearm sweep2 and then Polearm Area2. After that 2 moves its really a open situation and depending how much enemys surrounding me. If i have just one enemy in front i switch to TKM and use unarmedHit3. Enemys that runs away or are to far i hit with PolearmLunge2. In mass combats i do not use much the intmidate2 or Warcry2.

Unbuffed i feel with all that Profession and additional defense Bonuses still weak. In PvP's a Master TK still strikes me. Properly full of spice ... i dont know.
I am not able to solo higher Level Mission. Thats why i change the Faction to get this freaking AT-ST's. I hate them but its the only way to finish higher Missions as Pikeman. I am also in hope that one of my three Holocrons will NOT telling me to Master CH or Commando :/

I hope u get my pure english right... dam i feel so stupid writing in english... comon lets talk german

cheers scari

ach so, Scari, Sie sind nicht über meine Erklärung ganz sicher,habe ich Sie korrekt verstehe? Verzeihen Sie meinem Mangel an Wissen zur deutschen Sprache, aber wie ich versuche diesem mich zu notieren, sehen Sie, daß es für die beide von uns am besten ist, daß ich es zu Englisch halte

I understand your desire for a character that doesn't need help(food,drinks,spice & buffs), but as I've come to realize, you too will see that it is a vital part of any MMORPG to have the players depend on eachother through different needs. This doesn't mean one cannot solo the game, butIT is only with the help of others one truly achieve power. You and your doctorfriends buffsare a good example of this.

Your tactic for groupcombat as itis described in your text seems "ok", but I have to admit thatI react to the none useage of warcry2?! I mean, this is an area effect skill, and it delays the target(s) with 20 secs!!! I ALWAYS use warcry2 while fightin a group, and remember to recast if its effect wears off. If you are lucky enough to get a successful sweep2 in after the warcry2 and KD the group, you will truly see the power of delay ...also, don't forget that intimidate actually decreases the targets damage by 50%!!!

Once again, I cannot stress enough that food, drinks, spice & buffs are all part of the game and intended to help you character become more potent/powerful. Fair enough I can understandhow it can be ANNOYINGtobe defeated in PvP if you had agreed not to use spice and the agreement was broken, but still spice is part of the game and if nothing was made clear he won fair and square in my eyes.

As for the dancer/musician part you did not understand, I am sure it is obvious to you now: the mind buff. TKA is a profession I have chosen to supplement my pikeman with healing and defensive mods. From the MasterBrawler I use Warcry2, Intimidate2, Berzerk2 and polearmlunge2.

SACRILEGE!!!
