Thread: Pikeman do have uniques, by the way
I was testing out the effects of various moves, so spent quite a bit of time studying the combat spam. Although the skill boxes may not use the same terms, each of the moves (in the brawler branch, at least) has a rather colorful term associated with it. I don't recall the exact names but they were along the lines of "Skull crusher" and "Spinning Fury". I realize the issue with naming was one of attention and that it doesn't have an effect on the mechanical failures of the class, as a whole, but I thought I would let this be known, in case anyone did not already notice.

Not very creative at all.

I actually like the names of our specials. I wince when I see "back-cracker' or "bone-smasher". Some of the Teras Kasi specials have much more imaginative names. "Riding Bantha" anyone?
But, they don't seem to evoke any kind of explicit combatimagery like our specials do.
If I am not mistaken, carbine specials are pretty generic. "You use burst shot on a diseased nuna for 655 damage." or "Your impairing shot does 355 damage to a spiked krevol."
