I am dead tired of hearing PvP whinners complaining about knockdowns! I am a BH and we where the first profession targeted well lets make a list shall we!


PROFESSIONs WITH AT LEAST ONE KNOCKDOWN MOVE IN THEIR TREE:


- Bounty Hunter


- Tk


- Pistoleer


- Carbiner


- Smuggler


and I am not too sure about the fencers and pikemen!


A full grown TK bashes damages at over 2.5k damage per hit so stop whining because a player who was more advanced than you overpowered you (as he should have !) and go get some training before talking about things you do not even begin to understand!


NEWBIES WHO DON'T EVEN HAVE ONE ADVANCED PROFESSION YET SHOULD KEEP THEIR TRAPS SHUT AS FAR AS CRITICIZING THEM! YOU JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!


If you are a novice brawler and already started PvP, sorry for you but you got your levels of testosterone way too high! go train your char and remember that most PvP fans are powergammers so don't think you are going to own the world because you made novice TK!

IMO, only melee types should be able to knockdown.


Range + Knockdown = Very Overpowered

If I shoot someone they die. If I punch them they hurt. TK needs to be nerfed to reflect the real world. Let them knockdown but cap their dmg at 10 per hit.


I had a feeling when I saw the title...and then the first sentence "I am a novice TKA" blah blah. Like someone else said, get some boxes in the class before you take one someone in PvP.

If you knew how to even use ur class instead of running up to someone who is obvious higher up his class then urs you might have stood a chance.

Next time, lunge at 14m, then knockdown, then beat his pistol using ass.

Sick of you arseclowns whining about other classes owning u when you dont know jack about urs.

I'd say 9/10 times the unarmed knockdown is going to be more quick then the pistol whip one....If I duel a brawler there is no way I'm going to be up close, I keep a distance and use stopping shot and just one hit kill ya =P

My guess is that if I blast both of your kneecaps I will have in fact achieved a nice knockdown! Call it overbalanced all you want but if I have to be in a fight I'd rather be the guy with gun than the guy with the sword (Indiana Jones anybody???).

i'm an ex Daoc player... when i last played there was a new saying that people started using... used to be "Zerg 4D Win"... but now it's




CRY MORE NOOB



ya got owned... you accually ran up to him and placed yourself in his range and got beat down. Should have used Lunge (greater distance than pistol whip) then finished him off... but you got beat fair and square... leaves a nasty after taste doesn't it?

Some of you people have no respect.


I'm sorry to say this because I play a pistoleer... but.... If you had a gun in your hand and Bruce Lee was standing a foot away from you, you would get your A$$ handed to you.


If a TKA closes range, pistoleers should be running away, not stand toe to toe and out figh the poor guy. That's just lame. I want to be powerful but not so powerful I can beat a melee player from melee range. BORING.

OMG that's silly. If Bruce Lee was in front of me and I had a gun, I'd frigging shoot him and he'd die. You think you can beat a guy with a gun in real life with Martial Arts? Stop sniffing glue seriously.

hit ctrl+s, then hit that button that's called "surrender"



Bruce Lee was fast, but not faster then a bullet. All respect for Bruce Lee, he's my martial arts idol, but reality says a master of a firearm would beat any master of unarmed combat. At melee range it would be atleast 50/50, this time he lost, perhaps he won't next time, and that pistoleer will be on the brawler forum calling for a nerf.

There's a saying...



Don't bring a knife to a gunfight.



Replace knife with just about anything that is melee.

>>>> If Bruce Lee was in front of me and I had a gun, I'd frigging shoot him and he'd die. You think you can beat a guy with a gun in real life with Martial Arts?<<<<<


Give yourself a good 5 feet and sure you'd win, but within a foot and there's a good chance someone like Bruce Lee would kick that gun out of your hand so fast you wouldn't know what hit you. Plus TKA's in the starwars universe should be even better then Bruce Lee, they're tapping into the force after all.


I can't believe you people want to be able beat TKA's at melee range 50% of the time when we already own them 100% of the time at range.How greedy can you get? All we have to do is kite them to death. If you're stupid enough to let a TKA get within arms reach you DESERVE to die.



>>>>OMG that's silly. Stop sniffing glue seriously.<<<<


No respect.

Well, he said he was a novice TKA. That wouldn't make him Bruce Lee, he'd be like Ralph Macchio standing around on one foot or something..
