i have to say this prof i had the most fun with. i think maybe its the animation, oh and the area attacks are nice too.... great xp with those.


any how, heres a question for ya.


how do i beat TKA?


i cant even get one hit in before im on the ground and lying dizzy for the entire 8 seconds it takes to kill me. every tka has the same moves and it gets to the point i wont even go near them.


any advice would be appreciated.


im currently 3/3/4/4 pikeman

(and im a smuggler1/3/0/0 which doesnt help unless i slice my ooponents armor and ruin it without him knowing, and master artisan doesnt do much but those house deeds could be used as throwing stars)

ok rather than a new thread...



what should i be looking for in a polearm?


with rifles it was easy but im still using the same vibrolance as i started with therfore i havent had a varity of polarms.

what type, damage and speed is acceptabke for a pikeman?


lets just say im used to buying rifles at 50k a pop, so im considering the same for polearms.

Well to get good polearms expect to drop more than 50k the least ive ever paid on shadowfire for a polearm i didnt just use to grind FS xp was 1mil for a 690max dmg LVA.


Look for high Damage Long Vibro Axes as they are Medium Armor Piercing almost all of these are off Nightsisters, dont really use a Vibro Lance for PVP unless I see someone wearing weird armor like padded i know electricity is better against, that and VLs are light armor piercing too.


DOT weapons are nice i dont pvp all that much and mind ones are too expensive so i have a nice action fire/poison/disease then bleed set that works pretty well.


Cap speed as soon as u can, right now on shadowfire the speed tapes are cheap compared to 2handed swords and rifles ive bought some +5s for 100k a point so look for them now.

Anti KD food is your best pal against a TKM. Standard rules apply, don't spam KD or posture change moves, keep them stunned/ intimidated etc. With the resists against kinetic and electric, have a good dot lance, and pray they are not TKM/Master Doc.

Using a mind poison lance, area dizzy/KD/stun, and some TKM skills, (force of will helped a ton) I took 2 TKM, I had 6 stat doc buffs, they both had 6 stat doc buffs+entertainer buffs.

I find it a little distressing that the best way to beat a tkm as a pikeman is to get tkm skills...

Fencer has even better defences than TKA. People usually opt for tka more for meditate after a fight and to power boost laster on.

KD food, keep him intimidate/stun, then just beat the crap out of him w/ your crazy looking stick
