Read the whole thing and all the posts.

Teras Kasi just became defensive Gods.

one thing to consider is that defense aquity will be added to all melee professions so we may actually be able to dodge/block/counter, etc.. and with center of being, which is on all meleer's as well. center of being reduces the chance you get hit so these 2 skills may very well help us pikeman tremendously

One of them we dont get. I think it's center of being or whatever. He says one is a TKA only special.

Oh well i no longer have pikeskills and am TKA, and i love it

all brawlers get Center of Being

Yes, looks like all melee will get center of being. However, also looks like the defense of all melee (including TKA are being improved). And TKA will now get a dodge/counterstrike/block. Previously, the one supposed advantage of non-TKA melee was the defensive moves, and now TKA gets all of them. On top of that, TKA damage was increased even more (75% more). Previously, they had around +98 unarmed damage. Now they have +250 unarmed damage at master. Seems like TKA was already ahead of the rest of melee, so what changes are implemented? Increase the defense of pikemen, fencers, and swordmen, then increase the defense of TKA by more than the others AND nearly double their damage. I don't understand that logic.

I agree, thats a bunch of crap! I'm glad that a melee class is now where it should be in terms of damage and defense, but the other three get screwed again! I bet he added in the 3 second cap to us too, which screws us even more.

I'm glad TKA got fixed to where melee should be in this game but damnit what about the rest of us.

/hits head on desk

Do the devs really want every melee fighter to be a tka? I thought the devs were just ignorant up until now... now I think they are bias.

Dont worry they found a way to make people play pikemen, its called holocron.

Yeah thats what my holocron told me to master. I never took any brawler skills, started as a medic and i mastered CM. Lucky me, not only do i have to drop master CM but i get to train the worst of all the combat skills (from what i read and hear).

Evil holocrons, evil devs.
