antares you forget that im a master brawler and a master surgean medical proffesor as well as master pikeman, plus, a regulaer master pikeman has only 80 polearm speed, i have 100 becuase of skill tape,


so not only can i buff my self well over 3k on every stat besides mind and its substats ( which i have 1100 mind, 800 focus and 1100 willpower)


Ok takeing all that into consideration a master pikeman can easily bleed action over 2k easy, so add in a 20 sec delay and a 3 min intimidation that makes the attacks of the elder 50% less powerful, then you can easily solo a nightsister elder. Its not that difficult


BTWZabrak can eqaulize all of their ham bars with a single move, so if you eqaulize your ham bars while buffed, you can heal your entire mind and both action and health bars with the eqaulize move followed up with a 800 power stim e at master doctor speed.....

True, buffing is key here, and I know about action hit - I've had one glorious bleed of 7710 on a FS drifter before. The trouble is that I've fought elders before with a master brawler/TKM friend and a couple of maulers, using warcry2 and intimidate2. The fights take several minutes as elders have ~30k HAM and extremely high kinetic effectiveness, and the maulers always have to be healed some...now, the limiting factor is your mind, and I know elders can hit for upwards of 3-4k, so with the armor, debuffs, etc. that is still a good amount that she can deal out over those 10 seconds that she is immune to warcry2, so you're going to have to keep healing yourself, steadily lowering your mind. If you have gotten it to where you can keep your mind high enough to do this, then well done.

Do you use any specials? I do not see how you could really risk using too many specials in this situation, but not using many specials (i.e. leghit3/ph3) increases the length of the fight, thereby increasing the danger of depleting your mind pool. I'm just going off of my own experience, also using warcry2 and int2 as you stated. But, if you do have your char set up to be able to do this, grats, but you can see why I'm skeptical.

However, I don't think having an extra +20 speed makes you faster than a TKA, especially with a 4.5 LVA as you were saying. This I still disagree with.
