Get speed capped, and start swinging a 900 damage LVA and you'll see why we dont' need any nurfing.

yeh, we dont need nurfing b/cause it doesnt do any damage against good composite!

Bingo.

Christ, aside from fighting Jedi or DOTs, who actually dies in PvP from health or action damage?

1. Accuracy for our weapons and for us is not that good

2. THe only two types of weapons we have our electric and kinetic. Therefore, we can't hunt down NS elders because they hav 100% resists, and we are the ones who specifically need their loot.

3. Defenses. How come 2 brawler proffesions can get good defenses and we can't. What really pisses me off is how pistoleers get a +50 defense vs knockdown. THey don't need it, we do, they attack from a distance.

4. Range Defense. This should be for all brawler profs because if we get attacked by a rifleman, we are done.

5. Toughness. We by far have the worst toughness.

6. Area Attack and spin attack or the SAME THING (practically).

7. Leg hit does not do as much damage as a swordsmans mind hit or a riflemans mind shot, or a tka mind hit. And also, action is easy to heal, so we are doing no good attacking a healalbe pool.

8. Stacking. Remove it. I am a Master Pike/ Combat medic, but i will lose most of the time because i don't have as great defenses as stackers. Defenses for a prof should appl y when that weapon is equiped.

2.) Energy Lance
3.) Pikeman have fairly decent defenses. I'd say they have better defenses than Swordsman...and more state defenses than TKM.
4.) Can't have it all...every profession has it's weakness. Go pick up a def tree from another profession.
7.) Fencers can target health pool...very easy to heal.
8.) Stacking is fine the way it is. You're sacrificing your defenses by picking up Combat Medic. Don't cry out nerf because your template isn't own all uber. Defense stacker's weakness is dots...that's what you can do. Get a new template rather than cry about it.

The accuracy is fine for pve and for pvp just get speedcapped and start using your AOE attacks with your dots, no problem there.

2. THe only two types of weapons we have our electric and kinetic. Therefore, we can't hunt down NS elders because they hav 100% resists, and we are the ones who specifically need their loot.

NSEL

3. Defenses. How come 2 brawler proffesions can get good defenses and we can't. What really pisses me off is how pistoleers get a +50 defense vs knockdown. THey don't need it, we do, they attack from a distance.

Our massive offense capablities with 600+ LVAs in pve or mindfires/poisons in PvP more than make up for lack of defenses. Get defenses from another prof if it really bugs you.

4. Range Defense. This should be for all brawler profs because if we get attacked by a rifleman, we are done.

Same thing as above for offense/defense tradeoff.

5. Toughness. We by far have the worst toughness.

See above.

6. Area Attack and spin attack or the SAME THING (practically).

You're complaining about an AOE stun/dizzy?!

7. Leg hit does not do as much damage as a swordsmans mind hit ora riflemans mind shot, or a tka mind hit. And also, action is easy to heal, so we are doing no good attacking a healalbe pool.

Dot pikes drop very consistently from dath witches, so targeting a specific pool isn't an issue.

8. Stacking. Remove it. I am a Master Pike/ Combat medic, but i will lose most of the time because i don't have as great defenses as stackers. Defenses for a prof should appl y when that weapon is equiped.

As said before, you're doing something wrong. Even a master pikeman shouldnt lose to stackers, let alone a CM! Get proper buffs, food, armor, dot pikesand unless they are a doc or jedi you'll destroy them.

he just dont beat them cuz he sucks..... be a speed caped pikeman then talk. cuz if u were speed caped like i am u would have no problem throwing dots on them.. im pikeman,brawl, novie fencer, and 3020 doc. i rarely get beat. only people who can beat me are people with better dots and more dmging weapons.

pikeman is good vs all the night sisters, and jedi. i know a friend who can hit jedis for almost 1k EACH hit. his hits range from 7-1400. if you want to hunt elders get a energy lance, elders at 25% to energy.

as for your "4. Range Defense. This should be for all brawler profs because if we get attacked by a rifleman, we are done."

if we get ranged def they get melee def, then we wont be hitting anyone for anything, if u want ranged def be a tk/fencer or if u want medigation go pike/rifleman.

what i do think we should get is a stronger single stat pool hit, like a health hit, or even a head hit.

Melee/Ranged Defense does not cut down damage in any way...
