There's at least a few intentional pikemen on Shadowfire. By which I mean I've run into two others besides myself, and a third who was working his way towards it. There may be a couple more, we need to get up to that 1 pikeman per 400 players figure somehow, and how many holocronned pikemen can there possibly be?

I'm looking forward to the day that it's revealed the holocrons don't actually tell you the entire path to become a jedi and that most people still can't make it. Everyone's torturing themselves doing professions they hate without the slightest confirmation that it'll work. Sounds like a bad idea to me.

It's already been revealed that the holocrons don't actually tell you the entire path. People have used 4 holocrons and now receive a message saying that the holocrons have gone silent and can no longer help you. The holocrons were actually put in place to help those who are close go that last step and get their FSCS. Holocron (the dev) posted this statement about 3 weeks ago.


While professions aren't everything, they are most definitely a piece of it. And anyway, even with Pikeman what it is, I'm still enjoying just doing something different.

I was a dancer who needed combat skill. I had always DANCED with a staff, so I figured... why not USE one?


The pikeman weapons are incredibly wicked-looking. I like the graceful style of combat. So no claws or swords for me.

A great way to enjoy pikeman would be:


Master Pikeman


4004 in Combat Medic


And 0044 in Marksman, one tree being the action bleed shot for carbine.


My reasoning for this would be that Using an action poison disease/poison C that will auto Incap a player in 30 or less, then using both bleeds (bleeds stack when using carbine and pike)...


with this combo i can solo a JEDI so all you holo guys if you get FSCS...


BRING IT FOOl !!!

My second holocron told me master pikeman, and surprisingly I'm really enjoying this class.


I plan on being a pikeman once I do the whole holocron thing.

I am actually the opposite of this. I master pikeman as well as ranger both on my own, but then I recieved a holocron which told me to master smugger.... well.... Ive worked too hard to get where I am to just give it all up. I enjoy both of my mastered professions too much to go chasing the pipe dream that calls so many people away. Pikeman, I think I'll stay.

Holocron 1 - Master Entertainer (I got lucky with this)
Holocron 2 - Master Pikeman (what brings me here)


I can't say I'm enjoying it so far... mostly due to our weapons sucking (too high of ham and to horrid of 'to-hit' modifiers). Unless Pikeman is fixed, I will be dropping it after completeing my current Holocron skill (so I can at least complete this part of unlocking a FSCS, which is my main goal).


On the flipside, the animations and moves are pretty cool. I just wish I didn't see "miss" more often then a hit.

I chose Pikeman all on my own. No Holocron involved. My second account isa Chef, so I guess I just like unpopular professions.


I chose it because My dad in Real life teaches Aikido and I have been visiting the dojos since I was little. My favorite part of Aikido to watch was always the Quarterstaff training. I never took myself, so I guess I'm just virtually following in my dads footsteps, LOL.
