i used to hate dots, until i got my 302second 644 action poison, i dont like dots being used in duels though, but overt i think you do what you can to survive.
And he tested his uber loot pike on me, and it didn't tickle. Took him a while to catch me in the lake though

JUGGERNAUGHT YOU RULE!
ME ME ME ME ME ME!! I have been a Rebel Pikeman since launch.... I have been a master Pikeman before Mounts were even in consideration... I HATE DOTS!! I almost always fight unbuffed and unarmoured WITHOUT DOTS! In other words a real challenge that FEW SEEM TO BE UP TOO!!
I mean seriously no one gave a rats fuzzy lil hole about Pikeman then DOTS and EVERYONE loves Pikeman so much, and their Pikeman too like us? HELL NO! Im so sick antired of people playing whatever proffession has the latest edge... first it was Terasi Kasi, then Critter Handler, Bounty Hunter... Commando and will ITS ALWAYS BEEN TERAS KASI combat medic etc shall I continue? Rifleman?? I remember when THEY DID NOT EXSIST! My friend is actually one of the first rifleman to even undertake the skill son the entire server... but anyway these people suck!
Get real take a real challenge! Im so tired of Teras Kasi guys challenging people like me (EVER SO BOLDLY BTW) knowing that fighting un armoured unbuffed pikeman they can't use specials and well what the hell does TK have to worry about when they can spam hit 3 for 5 hours? OF COURSE THEY ARE GOING TO CHALLENGE YOU thats why they AND EVERY OTHER MORON IN THE ENTIRE GALAXY goes for the professions with the latest edge (as I just listed above) There are really few real people into their proffessions... Im glad to see another Pikeman, no holo crap, no dot crap, no the latest thing, no male ninjas WEARING FEMALE SKIRTS BTW!!! lol Its pathetic...
YOU ROCK!

It definitely adds to the 'mystique' of the Pikeman profession doesnt it? The fact that no weaponsmith can make us a decent weapon -- they have to be looted.
...
Does anyone feel that the DOT's help make the profession more equal with swords and TKM?
hehe, the "mystique"
/sarcasm_off
I actualy agree, the DOTs and loot based weapons make this a profession that you realy need to be commited to, mainly financialy
. I also agree that you should be master to land a DOT.
Yes, the DOTs make us more equal imho.

I have to say that DOT pikes may be more common but we are not unique in using dots. On Kauri, there are probably as many mind fire/poision rilfes/carbs and pistols in use as lances for the higher end pvp.
Just a thought, we are no longer the FOTM dot users, we are just the cheap dot users

This is a good point. I have never been killed by a pikeman DOT. On the other hand, i have been decimated by DOTed rifles time and time again.

Give us some high minimum damage weapons, heavy ap, something besides block, or some toughness. Until then,I will use, and abuse dots. Of course it sucks to use them, doesn't feel right when you kill someone, but it's just necesary to really do anything againstanyone besides ranged or jedi.
