Will be getting master pikeman soon. Sad thing is I'm not all that excited (just a little bit) because of all the problems in it.. .. All the problems have been stated in this thread, I agree with them.

All that being said, hope this helps!

I would like to say that if you're 3 4 4 3 as a pikeman you should not be missing or be blocked by anything level 10 or lower. I was goofing around with a new pet (have to have pets as a pikeman or you just die to everything) and it got in trouble with a Corelian ButterflyI swung at it 4 times beforeI hit. I was blocked (how can it block) missed 2 times and was counter attacked. NowI realise it is possible even for a master to miss but nothing this low in skill should be able to block or counter attack a HUGE axe being swung at it.

Another big issue with me is the range we can attack. Lets see an 8 foot tall wookie has at least a 5 foot reach using a 6 foot long axe that would be 11 feet. While a TKA human of 6 feet tall has a reach of 3 feet and a weapon addition of nothing would be an over all of 3 feet. HMMMMMMMMMM why do they both have the same attack range,? and better yet why would the axe have aMASSIVE hinderance in hitting things farther out?

My suggestion would be have TKA modifiers of +50 at 0-3 meters / -10 at 3-5 meters / -70 at5-7 meters

My suggestion for polearms -10 at 0-2 meters / +50 at 2-6 meters / -10 at 6-10 meters

And Please come up with new weapons for ALL meleers.... there are so many different types of melee weapons it is impossible to count

I think all of these changes are good. I stoped playing my Pikeman when I read that they planned on slowing them down. Comparing them to Riflemen is stupid. Hey, why not kill another class. Its not alone in terms of classes no one plays.

Pikeman needs more range, defence, speed and accuracy. Its clear TKA and swords seem to have their love but Pikeman is a potentially fun class, help them out.

I might even start playing mine again.

so you guys are really going to quit playing SWG if the devs dont change something ???

sure there are some problems ... but hell im not gonna quit on such a great game just because we need some stats up or changes ...

sure i too feel that SWG is just a tiny bit focussed on being a Commando, Bounty-Hunter or Creature Handler ...

but im not gonna sign this and actually quit this game after 14th of November ...
just use some common sence ....

i figured id bump this back up on top..

I am also starting to develope a community online for all pikemen and women. We are an elite few, we should work together helping to spread and train in the ways of the Pike. Using Vibro Lances and Long Vibro Axes and any other long pole we can find we will beat the daylights outa anyone with in reach.

So come on - if you are a pike or know a pike send me and email

I'm gonna become a pikeman soon on another account. I would go a more viable class but I dont like flavor of the month classes and would like to see this class get better. I like this classes big weapons. Problem is, I never see any.
