Pikeman Archive

Master Pikeman rocks. I just got my last three skill boxes: Master Offensive, Master Support, and Master Pikeman.

All I can saw is... WOW. Just.. Wow.

It's amazing how good a Pikeman can really be when he actually hits things reliably.

I actually got the most XP the other day in my group taking down an ATST. Not sure if that correlates to most damage done, but all I can say is it made me prowd to be a pikeman for a little bit.

plus..were the best looking melee class out there...whos got moves as cool as ours?...NOBODY

-respect-

well.. Master Dancers have better moves than us... but we have the best in combat moves..

Now, i thinkArchitect should have 1 combat skill.. its something they can do with all thier small houses since noone ever buys them.. there should be a command when you have a mob selected.. use the radial on the house and select drop.. then the house falls from 10 feet above the mob and crushes it.. and then they get artesian exp and combat exp from it.. hahaha.. im going to post this on the Architect board.. lol or not..

Food for thought.. More Dancers carry polearms when they dance, then people do when they fight.. whats up with that? *mutter*

Later

Even though we still need a lot of work done on our class, I still find that I'm pretty effective in group PvE. As long as they're aren't any high-level Teras Kasi around, I totally own at Fort Tusken. There's nothing quite like knocking a Tusken Chief's HAM down by half with a single polearmhit2....

Pikeman forever! I'm on intreped and I think I have seen 2 or 3 pikeman or polearm guys since I started playing this game in late June. I actually gave my extra sliced LVA to an imp who wanted to know where I got mine. He has become a good friend and has finally made it to novice pike. I've had one duel with a guy and his LVA and it was a great sight to see. I've chatted with only one other training Pike and he was pretty cool too. I agree with us being a minority, gives us something to talk about when we see a fellow pike.

Pikeman 3,2,2,2

Master CH/Master Medic

Far and away, we are the coolest.

Ever sit and watch a group battle. 500 guys with guns all standing still, twitching slightly as they fire (through the backs of their heads is my favorite). Abunch ofTKA, doing something, mostly just red swirly lines and lots of thumps. Then, if you are lucky, a pikeman. Almost always solo. Standing toe to toe with the enemy (and getting his butt handed to him), swinging away! Cool sounds, cool actions, we rock!

If this was all about style, we would win. As its not, we frequently nap and admire the sky.

Well brothers and sisters of the Pike I need some advice and help. Last night my team and I we where in our town just practicing with one another our moves and stuff like that. When it was my turn my damage was reduce I was doing 75, 85, 90, 230 damage. What happened to my Vibro Axe which is 495 damage max, from 20 swings that I counted I landed 6 of them, is there a different way that I can make my character land more often, I'm a CH too so I was able do more damage but without my beasts I'm very vulnerable. I love my Pikeman profession and I'm also a master brawler. My skills on the Pike are 2,2,3,2.

After the practice my team told me to change professions, they think that our Pike profession stinks, I tried to explain to them that is like the commando was at the beginning is a broken profession that needs to be fix. I felt so bad that I almost gave up all of my melee skills and I was going to adopt marksman heading to commando. I have never use a blaster on this game and I am planning on never using one at all.

Any suggestions please, I have tried so many different combos when it comes to PvP and is not working unless i get my beasts involve in the fight. I do good whenever is PvN and doing missions i do great too. The other players can just run and hit with their blasters but we cannot hit and run. My character is a Master Brawler, Master Creature Handler and my Pike skills again are 2,2,3,2.

Any suggestions will be really appreciate it, I do not want to give up my profession please give advice thanks.

P.S. My friends were not using special moves with their pistols just regular shooting but still they were able to defeat me, I'm the gimp of my team right now, that is without my beasts, with my beasts no one can beat me.

Im only 1-1-0-.98 and in pvp i hit for a good 400-500 points sometimes.. never less than 150 though.. on lok, i was doing between 2-4000 on red con mobs..

I'll always be a pikeman.I wish we'd stay rare, just get fixed up a little to be more useful...then i'd be happy.

1,0,2,1 pikeman represent!!!! BOOYYAHHHH!!!!!

I guess from what Holo says, I must be the rarest bird out there. Pikeman/Squad Leader.Never seen this combo before. It seems to work well with ourhunts. Some may say, rare and cool... others - rare and pathetically ineffective in comparison. But I say "to hell with 'em!"

Armor seems to be the bane of my existence. HAM costs too high, and it doesn't seem to offer substantial protection. I haven't tried Composite yet, but the HAM costs scare me - I like using the spec moves.

My skills on the Pike are 2,2,3,2.

thats why u kept missing

get master, it is truly a world of difference, hell even stances 4 is a world of differnce

at master, with a 4.4 long vibro axe, u hit faster then people shoot with their 2.0 or 1.8 guns

u hit for 200-500 regular attack, and pretty fast

if u were dueling a TKA, thats why, their defenses to melee damage are insane, a pikeman will never beat a tka master straight up, work ur skills up some more and it will all turn around, not saying u'll be a god or anything, but alot better, i hardly ever miss at master using regular attacks, specials still miss kind of often

but i've given up on specials, with the large ham costs, and the nerfing of KD, took away the need for specials for me, i just wear a full suit of 60%+ composite armor, and use regular attack on everything, it really is alot more awesome then u would think, the regular attack at master is insane compared to regular attack of other proffessions (excluding TKA)

(and for the pikeman/SL thing, there was one on tarquinas too, master pikeman/master SL, i think he dropped pikeman for pistoleer though after the kd nerf, now hes master pistoleer/master SL)
