yep I've been saying this for a while.





Already, on Bloodfin a MP took out a few Jedi by himself, using poison and mind fire polearms.


They were noob jedi and I've duelled the Master Pikeman in question and he sucks


We agreed no DOT weapons, he started to lose then hit me with mind fire trying to kill me...I retaliated in likeminded fashion and he dropped 3 times...I stayed alive because I had a Combat Medic to keep me alive..

"Noob Jedi" or not, all that people hear is : 1 pikeman took out 4 Jedi alone.


Another rant:


People selling trash looted weapons for sky-high prices, and the people that buy them. Angers me.

Wow, all it took was a rant thread for Antares to come out of his shell and start to get a little PO'ed.


Now where the hell is CLab. You'd think this thread would be right up his alley.

I have feared this all along. And i dislike all the pikeman on our server. There are too many...for NO reason!!! I liked being the only one on my planet, and i wanted a Rare Loot polearm, but no...it's too late for me, all these little knew hot heads are gonna come in and reap the benifits of what we have built, and then think that they have earned it, and deserve it. BAH!....BAH, TO THEM ALL!!!

Just like all those righteous rebels who always said that only jerks were imperial, and that the only reason that anyone would be imperial is if they didn't care, but now that the crackdown has come EVERYONE is imperial!!!... BULL**edit**!

thats what i think




My vision for TKAs....

I don't have a problem with the running in and out of buildings. When a BH sees a melee class he assumes you have some sort of crazy defense stack. There were multiple tests done showing that we can only hit the uber defense stack 1 out of 5 shots (if lucky). Weaving in and out of buildings buys time and distance. But, jumping in the lake... that's inexcusable. I hope you did a /report.

How about when you KD +warcry/dizzy a player or NPC, then try to get in one good 3x damage ph3, miss and it still makes them stand up...arg.

well trying to get master pikeman for my holo i was on dath grinding some exp. well anyway i was buffed and we were hunting rancors...and of course i was the only melee guy there so of course i take all the hits. well i decided to put on some armor (79% kenetic), i have also dmg mitigation 2 (40% dmg from melee). so some noobs desides to get a bull rancor lair. well what happened is i went up to attack the bull rancor and... he desease spamms me in ONE SECOND for 9 hits. so im taking like 450 wound dmg. to bad for me we dont have a rezzer or that im not TKA so i cant sit there and meditate my desease away like THEY can. thats what ticks me off. so im stuck there getting 450 wound dmg every couple seconds. well that the endof that. then i go into the pikeman thread and do the usual bitching. and the best part is!!! WTH DOES A PIKE HAVE SUCH A LOW MIN DAMAGE!!! PLZ TELL ME!!! ARGH!!

Because we get things like mind fire lances, reliably-looted super weapons, etc. coupled with the rising numbers of pikemen picking it up with the goal of being powerful, the more overpowered we will start appearing to people. Already, on Bloodfin a MP took out a few Jedi by himself, using poison and mind fire polearms. This will become more commonplace, we will begin hearing more and more people who have recently become pikemen bragging about their advantages and accomplishments, then we will begin hearing complaints about pikemen. I fear it will just get worse after that. I don't like this at all.

Perhaps this is just what we have been looking for. When our numbers were low, we got nerfed at every patch. Including the latest one, where our uber bleed stack went away (in theory).


Now, with everyone and his kimo becoming a pikeman, or at least dusting off his old skills, perhaps we will become a force. With numbers comes placating. TK has big numbers, they got big help. We have small numbers, we get the shaft.

Don't be so proud of this technological terror you've created. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.

Maybe so, we'll have to see how this works out. With these numbers also come complaints and calls of "overpowered." How will we weather these? That remains to be seen.

why does the NSEL have AP1??? Isn't it suppose to be the elite weapon of our class? weak


why is the only beast that drops the NSEL 100% resistant to our two attack types? Couldn't she be at least vulnerable to electric? weak


why does ThunderHearth notanswer to the feedback on theten questions as he said he would? weak
