Pikeman Archive

couldn't see it in the FAQ or by searching

Being a Holocrom lead Pikeman I've never looked at the profession, so could somebody give me a breakdown of the styles so I know what to aim for 1st, as the description are hardly enlightening on chrt Builder or in game, so need to know what's the knockdown? the bleed, dizzy, etc

I'm also thinking I'll get novice carbine to add another action bleed but I'd like to hear others opinions and if it worth going any higher in carbine.

Sorry for the reposts these board sucks

I did pikeman with ch as well. Face it, you can't tank, don't try. If you want to solo pikeman as fast as possible get CH. I did giant beetles on tatooine for a lot of my xp in pikeman and for the last 3 or 4 blocks I headed to dath and it flew in groups. Even with a mauler i could solo giant baz missions if I had to before master but it was much faster and more interesting in groups on dath. Now that giant baz missions are gone I find the defiler missions to be an excellent source of income. Only 2 up at a time and that being said you can easly solo pull them no matter how close they are. If you ever used any CH you know how to do it. It's also possible to do the CH single pull trick with a melee weapon out just a little more tricky. Again, I did my pike xp before the KD nerf thus 3/4 of our styles actualy did something. Get master brawler while you are at it, intimidate and warcry2 are lifesavers and if you can't find a doctor stock up on sunburns or burnout sauce. I've gotten my PH3 hit down to 40mind cost with burnout sauce but it's durration is short and not being able to take a muon gold after a food buff will only bug your mind stats and make ham costs even higher. So untill they fix this bug that's been around for about 4 weeks don't do it. That's about all I can think to say. Also, since you can't keep stuff KD'd now with sweeps and the dizzy doesn't work on animals you can find some fairly low encumberance high kinetic ubese for about half the price of composite if you so desire.

Cheers for the opinion

yep I've got CH 3.2.0.0 at the moment but without going for mch I'm going to get stuffed soon with the CH changes
